SPRINGFIELD, O., Dec. 21. Judg
Peter 8. Qroaacup of Chicago addreeaed an
audience of 2,000 people at the Grand opera
house thl evening- on "The Control of
Corporatlone."
The add reus wan given under the auspices
"f the Commercial club and the faculty
of Wittenberg college, of which Judge
Groarcup la a graduate.
He mild In purt : . .
I have n friend up the atate who, the
morning of every election day, votea his
partv ticket and votea It with a much
publicity aa the laws permit. -hut in the
evening Witlts for -the return, -tile-hert
full ol the wlHh that the' other party has
won. There are many mert In public life
today who have Just that kind ft fealty to
the president and hia policies. My respect
for him la not -of that kind. No other In
dividual career In recent year haa ao con
spicuously broken Into a public atmosphere
That had been stagnant, clearing it up a
an electrical atorm cleara up a sultry sum
mer aky. In the character of a great
moral force, I look upon Mr. Roosevelt aa
one of the great figure of the times In
which we live. To no other individual haa
been given ao great an opportunity to lay
anew tha foundations on which our coun
try's future peace and prosperity must
rent; to the extent that he la effectively
ulng tha. opportunity getting results out
of the popular awnkenlng I follow him aa
my lender. But, like pvcry great man In
the crisis of a great cBreer, the president
standi now at a point where it will bo
speedily determined whether foundations
that go deen enough to sustain the new
great Industrial life on which America ha
entered are to tie Hid by him. leaving It
to his successors to carry un the aupcr
structure, or wlnther he la to go off the
stage the Brent fvnml but an evangel
i.nly, of the future th it awaits us.
, Where lliumrr l.lea.
The danger that threaten him la the old,
old danger thut lurks In every attempt to
tlo too many things at once and at the
same time. The American people do but
one thing at a time. And the one great
thing that la upon this generation of Arner.
'leans to settle to so settle that it will stay
act'led la the ways and means through
which the property and the prosperity of
the country. Indisputably great, and grow
ing greater every day, shall be put on their
the property
f work Is aocom
plished, or fairly on Its way toward ac.
comnllshment. the obligation of this gen
eration of Americans will have been dis
charged. But that great Work will never
bo put on Its way to accomplishment by
anything less than, an earnest. orgunlaert
popular movement, that denying to Itself
everything elae, concentrates .Itself upon
a corporation reform, that like the great
German corporation reform of thirty years
ago, will go to the bottom of the wrong.
No more so-called federal license plan
will fulfill that end; the reform to bring
back the people of the country into the
ownership and control of the property of
the country must not rest upon n corpora.
t!on policy as It exlata today, changed In
no particular except that the corporations
are to be subjected to a little additional
scrutiny nt Washington.
The mere prosecution of corporations thnt
are disobeying the law, as the law exists
today, will not fulfill that end; wtmethlng
more must te done witn tne corporation
than t put It on the docket of the crim
inal courts.
All the power the nation needs the nation
now has. What is wanted la not more
power; what Is wanted Is a clearer vision
that at the bottom of the people's unrest
Ilea thla fact: That under conditions, as
they exist today,- the people at larga arc
practically denied admission Into the great
prosperity Inheritance; that all around them
the genius and Industry of thla generation
Is building a fact that fermenta and will
continue to ferment and will cause the
whole body politic to ferment until it Is
removed.

Weekly Review of Trade tomorrow will
aay:
Weather conditions accelerate distribution
of seasonable merchandise at reiall. but I
Increased traffic difficulties, freight block- !
dea and ahortage of motive power not
only retard business, but threaten serious
results at some western points, nouoajr
trade has equalled sanguine expectation,
yet this large volume haa not Inlet fered
With the brisk demand for at ft pie articles,
which deplete stocks to auch an extent that
wholesale trade experiences unusual activ
ity for the season. The only noteworthy
decrease In comparison with activities a
year ago appears In building permits.. Most
Industrial work Is .maintained at the maxi
mum, mills and lactone naving bo ninny
contracts for next yer'e delivery that In
ventories receive little attention.
Scarcely any change Is recorded In prices
of Iron, the market, having developed a
Utile seasonable quietness, although fur
nace constantly receive new orders, and
in some eastern markets the week has
brought out contract for delivery in the
closing months of IM.
In the rails the mills report about two
thirds of next year s total output already
sold. Steadiness in quotations and tha
avoidance of any Inflation are now the
factors that will contribute moat largely
to continued activity.
In the primary market for textile goods
the event of greiteat interest la the strengtn
of cotton and the practical Impossibility
of securing prompt dellverle from manu
facturers. W hile the demands have dimin
ished somewhat in comparison with the
preesure that haa been noticed for soma
weeks, there 1 still a steady inquiry, and
selling age,nts are utterly unable to arrange
shipments as requested. There Is little
disposition to dispute quotations as the
goods can be aecured. although much busi
ness has been transacted and the question
Is raised as to how much speculative buying
has occurred. There Is no export trade,
aside from regular movement to South
America and the Island markets, although
Inquiries from China are reported on special
lines. The opening of the woolen goods
aeason ha been aufflclently Irregular to
make It difficult to determine the trend of
demand. Much business has been done in
staple dress goods for delivery next full
at last year's prices.
Staple farm products have fluctuated
within narrow limits, no development of
Importance being reported. W heat had
the support of unfavorable crop new from
Russia, but light grinding by domestic
mills prevented any material Improvement
and there was no speculative activity.

NOT AS OLD AS IT LOOKED
Cranium of an Ancient Nebraakan
Fxrltea In veattgatlon and Some
Obaervatlona.
The discovery of a human skull on a hill
side above Florence, Neb., a few months
ego, and the claim set up by the discoverers
that it was a relic of an ancient race, ex
cited considerable interest in anthropolog
ical circles and furnished a text for a paper
by Henry Fairfield Osborn In the January
number of the Century Magaxine. Mr. Os
born dlacuaaea and compares various type
of ancient man, paleolithic, neanderthal and
neolithic, and concludes that the Nebraska
specimen has a large stock of centuries to
Its credit. "The comparisons which we are
able to make," saya the writer, "now prove
that this cranium is of a more recent type
by far than that of the neanderthal man. It
may prove to be of more recent type even
than that typified by the early neolithic
man of Europe. Even If not of great an
tiquity it Is certainly of very primitive
type, and tends to Increase rather than di
minish the probability of the early advent
of man In America."

Editor of COLLIER'S WEEKLY Says:
It hat for tome time been known In publishing circlet that McClure'a Mepagtne hat the manuscript and
tfocoiueais of aa elaborate, painstaking; and nnprejndiced history of ...
Mrs. Eddy and Christian Science
done with the careful regard for accuracy and adherence to documentary evidence which characterised th
history of the Standard Oil Company. The publication of each a temperate history ourbt to settle, for those
whose minds remain open on the subject, just how much of Mrs. Eddy is money-seeking; charlatan and how
much is seer." y
The opening chapters of this life are in the January number, in which
number will appear also the following:
Carl Schurz's Reminiscences reach a most exciting piece of description
The Lincoln-Douglas Debate
This story has a never-ending charm for all Americans and is told from a new
point of view and in a most intimate way.
Possibly the only Christmas story appearing in any magazine at Christmas
time is the characteristic Myra Kelly story, "A Perjured Santa Claus." This
question of whether or not there is a real Santa Claus gets a new angle in the
story of the little boy who tried to have Santa Claus brought before the police
magistrate for perjury.
One of the contributions which will be vitally interesting will be the care
ful account of "The Jewish Invasion," by Burton JHendrick, in which is de
scribed the advent of the Jew in our country and the methods by which he obtains
such eminence in commerce, literature, art or whatever he sets his hand to do.
Other stories, papers and many g;ood picture make the January McClnre'a a epoch-marker.
