A severe arraignment of the wool

Judge Klnkaid was today engaged In

proposition to place hides on the free list.
It Is on the cards to form an organization
to fight free hides, the majority of the Ne-

to the weat, south and southwest, being
perfectly willing to Join the crusade against

the ways and -means committee. The

v Plea for the Farmer.
"The treatment of the farmer by chlk
t'HI Is along the same lines as have
characterized republican methods In toe
past." says the report. "Ho gets prac
tically no relief and the laborer and pro
ducer have greater burdens Imposed upon
them. Kvery article of food the laborer
must have to live comfortably la heavily

products) was evidently prepared by the
ine mind which haa dominated this bill

trusts.

In fact as well as In omr of time, Wash
ington haa Just claim to the very 'first
place among our chieftains as a mighty
out-of-door man. He certainly spent a
much larger proportion of his life In the
open air than did any of the others.
Thomas Jefferson belongs distinctly
among the physically strenuous presidents,
and he revived the traditions of Washing
ton, which had lapsed during the term of
John Adams. Like the first president, he
was a notable horseman and fox-hunter.
From his youth up hs followed the chase.
President Andrew Jackson's physical
prowesa was considerable. As a boy he be
came skillful with the rifle and hunted in
the wooda of Woxham for deer, wild turk
eys and other kinds of game, which were
then plentiful. He did hla killing at that
period of his life from necessity; the house
hold needed meat for the table. He seldom
missed his mark. He was expert in all
boys' games and sports, and was always
ready for a wrestling match. He excelled
In running and Jumping. A horse race was
always a delight to him, and It must be
confessed that during part of his career
he took more Interest In chicken fights
than wouid now be deemed worthy of a
coming president. His horse racing was
done before he was elected to the office of
chief executive. He bet freely on the races
and now and then ran his own horses. Any
one who wished for a duel could have It
on application.
General Grant had an unusual love for
horses. He had a stock farm near St. l.ouls
before he became president, where he kept
100 horses. In the period Immediately be
fore th civil war, while living on his farm
near St Louts, he was distinctly an out
door man, cutting down trees and hewing
and building with his own hands. This
doubtless bad much to do with his extra
ordinary endurance during the civil war.
President Grover Cleveland looms large
as an outdoor president! The country knew
and esteemed him In the double capacity
of statesman and fisherman. He also
penned charming essays In defense of the
piscatorial art. His flies Were cast upon
many waters, and his Impressive shadow
fell from banks of uncounted lakes and
mountain streams upon the homes of finny
tribes.
Mr. Roosevelt as a boy and man aimed
with unwavering purpose at health and not
at athletics for their own sake or for com
petitive honors at college or elsewhere.

"Trade t'nionlam and Its Relation to the
R.cial Cplirt," was the subject considered
by the social science department of the
Woman's club Mond.iy afternoon. T. W.
McCullouRh. managing editor of The Hee,
was the speaker, and his address was fol
lowed by general discussion. There has
never ben a time, Mr. McCullough said,
when men so generally acknowledge that
they are their brothers' keepers as today.
Responsibility 1" thruM upon everyone and
accepted until humanism is coming to sup
plant Individualism and nationalism. The
labor question, he said. Is comparatively
a modern question, owing to the fact
that the introduction of machinery
and the changes resulting from the
multiplicity of production have en
tirely changed the status of the workman.
Ownership has passed from workman to
employer and with the tools adequate to
modern production, machinery, taken out of
his hands, the position of the workman has
become fixed. The trades union is the out
growth and Its chief aim Is the regulation
of the conditions under which nun must
serve as employes alwas with a view to
elevating them.
Mr. McCullough explained the operation
of the American Federation of Labor and
the various unions and the democratic prin
ciples upon which their work Is conducted.
He explained also the necessity of har
monious nction and the union's difficult
and delicate position In curbing and direct
ing so large a membership, composed neces
sarily of men of widely different stand
ards and animated, too, with that same
selfishness common to all mankind. Ho
pointed out the great responsibility of the
men entrusted wtth the executive work of
the unions and illustrated the difficulties
often added to their position through mis
conception or lark of sympathy on the
part of the public and conflicting court de
cisions. The benefits of trades unions he summed
up as better wages, shorter hours, better
working conditions and a general uplift
for all, while In many unions there Is a
pension or home for those who have grown
old or become disabled In the service.

Contents Himself with the Steam Ma
chine for Fonr Years.
President Taft is numbered among the
White's most prominent and renowned own
ers. It Is onu of the few makes rf Amer
ican cars to carry the co;it-of-;irmn of the
United States. This Is the only fact, how
ever, that differentiates the White Steamer
owned by Taft from those seen whizzing
through the streets of any city during the
day. It is an ordinary forty horse-power
machine of 1909 make, but Its durability
and ease of running have won tho president-elect
fer a life long admirer.
Taft's White Steamer will play an Impor
tant role In his strenuous presidential
career. While being an ardent devotee to
horseback riding, the president-elect never
theless recognizes the steam car as a
means of quick conveyance, and much of
his official business in Washington will
be done with the car.
