A dispatch to the Lincoln (Neb.)
Journal (rep.) says: "Political sig
nificance attaches to the action of
Senator Hale and Senator Carter In
causing to be published as public doc
uments the Cannon speech at Kansas
City. The published speech will be
frankable and can be circulated with
out expense, save of printing. This
action is taken to mean that the con
servative republicans Intend to Btart
an active campaign in support of the
tariff bill passed at the last session
and in defense of tho organization
and course of the majority in con
gress. President Taft's Winona
speech gives the tariff bill and the
nien who voted for it a bill of health
to loyal republicans of tho country.
Speaker Cannon's Kansas City
speech defends tho house organiza
tion and arraigns republicans such as
Senators LaFollette and Cummins
and Bristow for their final vote on
the bill. There is .evidence in sev
eral quarters that the conservative
worm has turned at last and that the
LaFollette and Cummins section of
republicans are not to have things
all their own way."

commission has made a report show
ing that tho white slavo traffic has
come to be ono of America's great
problems. 'The commission makes
these recommendations: "Owing to
the difference between European and
American views regarding prostitu
tion, co-operation for tho suppres
sion of tho white slave traffic can bo
expected from most of the European
nations only along certain lines.
Most European countries aro rigid in
their regulations regarding procur
ing for purposes of prostitution of
minor girls, or of any women by
means of fraud and deceit. Women
who are "of ago and who enter tho
business of their own accord a'ro not
Interferred with. In continental
countries where these conditions ex
ist no co-operation can bo expected
to prevent professional prostitutes
from sailing to the United States.
Such governments probably would
co-operate to prevent the seduction
of minors or the fraudulent or rorci
ble exportation of their women. In
the main, however, tho United States
government must rely upon its own
officials for prevention of this
traffic."
