John Callan O'Laughlln, special corres
pondent of the Chicago Tribune, visited
. President Taft' at Beverly, lawt week, and
n Saturday the Tribune gave prominent
place to the following article from Mr.
O'Laughlln:
Under the rule, which applies to Inter
Ylewe with the president of the United
fllate, I -am not. permitted to quote Mr.
Taft, but. I am .authorized to say that the
following expresses, clearly the views he

will fee a universal demand lor tne strength

provision of remedy whion will force huge

lution In. his federal Jncorporatlon plan for
11 corporations dolig an Interstate busi
ness, which' he submitted to congress In a
epecial message last winter.
Th Vtarlff expert will submit to the
president within tvrt ' years recommenda

I have referred to only the more striking
things In the legislative program the presi
dent still ha In mind to show how necea
ary, In his Mew Is the election of a re
publican majority In the fall. A democratic
bouse would refuee, of course, to grant him
the legislation he so earnestly wishes. It
would hamper,, hi' administration in every
uuislble way. a
And while, from" a legislative point of
view, he , would .be able to achieve little
with a democratic houne. It Is the belief of
the president he still could do many things
In administration .which would be of great
value te the counjry. lie proposes to In
troduce economy In government, to place
the several department upon a business
basis, to create ah efficient machine which
will run smobthly and t the lowest pos
sible cost. -1 r 4
What I'srty Has In Mind.
A an Indication of what the president
ha In mind attention may be called to
th reonianlautlon and aavlng whictf' have
occurred in the Treasury department and
In the P'oatof flee department. ' The latter
department actually turned back tlOOju.oUJ
out ot the fl7.0cO.OOO of the deficit for which
an appropriation was made. As a result
at the end ot the last fiscal year Instead
f the anticipated' deficit ot 140.OW.000 there
was a surplus of; 11,(mUhX, which, as the
president ' auggcxip. Is a truly wonderful
allowing. . , ;
The president 4 not concerned about the
effect ot the flections upon Ills personal
fortunes. .-, Jl is not looking forward to
1313. not directing his acla or his policies
toward Securing renomlnatlon and ie-tK-c-ticn
to the office he now holds.
o.Do Things Right.
r.g to do the thing at hand
ard to do .them In the right way. If his
course be approved, well and good. If It
be not poro ed,' well end good also. That
this Is hie. state of mind la shown by his
decision not to take any managerial part
( In the Approaching campaign.

Interfere;' with his work. Kor Instance, he

He must appoint five lawyer a Judge

shall constitute the court of commerce
created by the recent railroad law. A
one of the men selected will be a member
of the Interstate Commerce commission n
able successor must be chosen.
Winla the night Mea.
Nothing, In the Judgment ef the president.
Is more Important than the appointment of
the right men.
In addition, Mr. Taft desire to have his
annual message drafted before he returns
to Washington. He will have to consider
and pass upon the recommendations of the
army board of engineers, formed to select
the reclamation projects which shall be
carried without delay to completion..
Lvery department ha It large question
of policy which constantly are being placed
before the president for decision.
So far a what ha been accomplished I
concerned, the president la proud of It.
There ought to be no doubt on this (core.
And some of .the pride he fens Is founded
In the fact that the legislation enacted Ws
enacted by the regular vote of the repub
lican party.
It is "true some changes were made In the
various bill at the Instance of the Insur
gents and democrats, but the president
asserts they were few In number. Th
main features, with the exception of the
tariff law, were foreshadowed in speeches
he made before congress assembled last
December, In hi several message, and In
bills which were especially prepared by hi
direction for the consideration of congress.
Tariff Itcsult Please lllra.
The way In which the tariff law has
operated has given the president consider
able satisfaction. He fully Justifies the
claim he made for It at Winona, that it
was the best law of the kind ever enacted.
The value of the law as a revenue producer
Is established. With reference to It effect
upon the consumer, the president Insist
that It generally Is m hi Intereet.
Numerous reduction were made In the
duties on necessities, while the Increases re
lated to luxuries, such a win and the like.
Itoof of this tact and of the falsity of the
claim that the tariff Is responsible for the
high cost of living ha been furnished the
president. .
An Investigator, took the menu ot a dining
car, which contained ninety Items, and
applied the tariff to each of them. He
fot nd that seventy had been untouched, the
duty on fifteen had been reduced, and there
were Increase on only five. The Increases
affected olives, pineapples, sweet cake, Eng.
iisli plum pudding and wines.. -
At a hotel where- he stopped he took like
action, with the result that out of the forty
ix item on the menu there wa on In
crease eweet . cake seventeen decreases,
and the remainder, twenty-six In number,
were untouched. At another hotel the same
procedure with respect to forty-five Items
snowed nine reduction and no Increase.
Opinion of Iaveatlaator.
"So far a the necessities of life, In the
way of food products, being affected by
any change from the Dlngley to the Payne
bill," the investigator concluded, "th
changes made are all downward, and w
need have no fear of taking a radical posi
tion in that respect. '
The president never baa mad ana secret
of his dissatisfaction with, the wool schedule
ana the cotton schedule. These, - by his
direction, are being acrutinued by tha board
or expert h has appointed. With th
appropriation placed at Its disposal tha
board wM, be able to. make a thorough and
comprehensive inquiry, and I certain to
get results, the president believes, which
Veil! be highly advantageous, . i .,
: He doe not favor a tariff commission.
Such a body, vested by law with Inquis
itorial power, would not. In hi Judgment,
lie able to obtain the complete Information
which I necessary to reach a correct een
cluson. since it would antagonize mer
chant and manufacturer and dispose
.hem to block It effort to get- at the
truth. i . .
Moreover, the president, of course, he
point out, 1 not the lawmaker. Con
jress, under the constitution, alone has
i he right to make laws, and It la question
able whether It could delegate its Dowtr
to any body of men. ' ' -
rror. Ornery, chairman of the Taft tariff
board, ha reported that the experience of
Germany has opposed ' that ' country de
cidedly to the ,tariff commission plan.
See Real Benefit.
neal and Immediate benefits, In Mr. Taft
view, havo flowed from the legislation en
acted. In the regulation of railroad the
principal Improvement,, he think, attends
iho institution of the commerce court In
the determination of the legality of orders
made by the Interstate Commerce com
mission. , , - . . ,
Heretofore appeal hav been taken
through the circuit courts to the courts et
appeal and thence to the supreme court.
Phi procedure ha lent itself to confusion
of interpretation and to woeful delay.
The president believe th creation of a
Bingle court, empowered to deal. with educa
tions arising from the acton of the Inter
state Commerce commission, It member
versted in the principle and precedent con
trolling the application of the lnteratat
commerce lawa, will result In the establish
ment of a uniform system of practice, in
harmonious rules, and In expedition, mak
ing the work of the commission much more
effective than ever, before..
The railroad law also, give the commis
sion power, of it own motion,- to Invest!.

found unreasonable to fix those which will
uo rtusonuuie.

a to railroad. Mr. Taft declare to be
utterly unfounded, except a ctated above.
A a matter of fact, the bill especially
provided that nothing therein should be
constructed to amend or modify the law,
except In respect to the thirty day traffle
agreement.
The tmportane'e et the postal aavlng bill
I generally conceded. In the opinion of
Mr. Taft, It wilt promote thrift among the
poor, who are not disposed to deposit money
In banks, because of their distrust ot such
Institutions, and so spend th money they
otherwise would save.
He also anticipates that the postal sav
ing tank will afforj a depository to those
who heard their money at home and who
may be Induced by government responsi
bility and promise to repay to turn their
meney Into the postal bati.
Mr. Taft believes the measure to be well
drawn, conserving the Interests of the de
positor, the locality In which he resides,
and the government.
The conservation law confers upon the
president the power to withdraw all land
of tha public domain subject' to settlement V
from the operation of law, and to hold them
for any public purpose.
Withdrawal of Land.
This authority hoa enabled Mr. Taft to
withdraw more than 70,000,000 acres of land-
water power sites, coal, phosphate, and oil.
This action ha produced a status quo In
respect to which consideration may be
given asyto the bf-st methods for the proper
disposition of this land.
The president holds that the bond Issue
ef $20,000,000 was made necessary by th
extravagant and unbusinesslike methods of
the reclamation service, which had gone
ahead without much regard to the amount
of money available, a.id. promised to set
tler In th west the completion of projects
t a certain cost to be collected In the form
of annual water rent from the settler.
It has developed there 1 not enough
money In the fund drawn from the sale
of public land to carry on the work satis
factorily, and In the $20,000,000 bond law,
power la provided to supplement th work.
A step toward reform In politics I pro
vided, the president holds, In the law re
quiring publication of campaign contribu
tion. Statehood ha been granted sep
arately to Ariiona and New Mexica. Other
measure have been passed making for
efficiency In government, ' 1
Llkea Soma Inanrarente.
None of these measures, a the president
points out, owe its origin or Important
feature to th Insurgent. He does not
class all th Insurgent aa hostile to the
party.
Such men as Murdock, Klnkald. and
Hayes of California have hi gratitude.
Their fight waa upon the rule and organi
zation ot the house, and with such action
he has no quarrel. It 1 betraying no secret
to say he heartily approves the liberaliza
tion of the rule.
But th president decidedly resent the
action of those Insurgents who hav repre
sented him as the tool of "the Interests"
and ascribed to him motives ot tha basest
charaoter. -
Such men cannot expect any considera
tion from htm.
With respect to Mr. Cannon' continu
ance a apeak er, Mr. Taft ha no concern,
alnce It Is th houae of representative
alone that ha the power to choos Its
own officer.
But Mr. Cannon is no longer an issue.
By n possibility could he be re-elected to
the position he now occupies. 1 -
Mr. Taft believe the party should be
Judged by 4t act; Upon' the presentation
he I able to make, be ask how the party
reasonably can be refused continuance in
power, especially when the party seeking
to supplant It has demonstrated Its Ineffi
ciency both In administration and legislation.

Laurence Iiarnum, who ha Just returned

Chicago banker over the tramle, Hahn
Peak A Pacific railway, th road which
I being built southwest from Laramie, on
the Union Pacific Into the coal field of
northwest Colorado, say that th railroad
la opening up a vast territory that ha a
large tonnage of not only coal, but cattle
and all kind of agricultural products,
which will be moved over It line.
It wa announced by the management
Just before the Inspection party broke up
that the line would be extended to Steam
Doat Springs, the present terminus of the
Moffatt road. Mr. Barnum said:
"I beltev that whan thla road get Into
Steamboat Spring It will get practically
the entire freight from that district, which
comprise SuO.ouO acre of rich agricultural
valley land. The Laramie road will have
an average grade of less than 1 per cent
and a maximum grade of only I per cent,

"A twenty-flve-yer traffle agreement
ha been signed with the Union Pacific and
11 I not expected that any other traffic
agreement will be made."
"Speaking of general conditions In Colo

The shipper now ha the right to demand
a written statement of the rates from tho
authorized anent of the railroad, company.
The new law authorize the ." Interstate
Commerce commission to suspend the oper
ation of increased rate until it can look
into th queation of th reasonableness of
the Increase. i
The president Is rather doubtful as te the
effect of the long and short haul clause.
It may give a-little more power to the
commission and be a little liberal to the
railroad In fixing a higher - rate for a
shorter distance, but he is Inclined ta think
tho difference Is not great.
In addition tha commission Is' given power
to establish through routes and Joint classi
fications and to establish Joint rates, and
the shipper has the right, as between Jo7nt
route, to aelect the rout over which his
merchandise shall be carried. '
These provision. Mr. Taft recommended
in his lie Mulne speech and were In
eluded in the bill dratted by the attorney
general. He recommended also at Des
Moines a provision by which railroads, in
spite of the anti-trust law, were permitted
to make traffic arrangement fixing rate
for not exceeding thirty day. .
Former President Roosevelt had mad th
same recommendation, and it waa a plank
in tha republican platform. However, con
gress refused to enact the prevision on th
ground that It wa unwise to amend the

NEW YORK, Aug. 7.-Surrounded by
nearly 200 eager little girls and with a
bright, cooing little baby in her arms.
Dr. Laura M. Rlegelman ha clearly dem
onstrated the absolute necessity of rearing
and caring for young children along scien
tific lines. To make her lecture more In
teresting the doctor, with the aid of a
trained nurse, bathed a..d dressed a baby
who, perhaps because aha waa on exhibi
tion, didn't even whimper.
The lecture was given In Public School
No. 33, in the heart of. the tenement dis
trict, in Hayward street,, near Broadway,
Brooklyn. The baby, a strong, . rosy
cheeked little girl, was a striking contrast
to the anxious "little mother," the major
ity ef whom looked as if the stern end of
need had many times stared them in the
face. To some of these the sight of a baby
in a little bathtub was a novelty, but to
others It was merely a case of witnessing
that which they themselves had performed
many times, but In. a different manner.
First, the water wa tested with a ther
mometer, and being found too hot, was
lowered to 98 degree Fahrenheit. .Many of
the children had never seen a bath ther
mometer and handled, the instrument .with
great curiosity. Mis . Whiting, the nurse
in charge, showed the children how to keep
baby' eye and mouth washed, laying
tress on the need of the use of borax.
In dressing the child Dr. Rlegelman told
tha children that, contrary to the general
belief, babies should --wear as few clothe
in summer a possible.' i u
"Petticoat," said the' physician, "should
be entirely eliminated.) I have found that
mother dress their children entirely too
much In summer. They forget that a child
does not need ao muckaclothe aa a grown
peraon. For some unaccountable reason it
seems to be the general impression that
the little flannel band - should be tightly
fastened. Thla generally results In colic
and In many Instances gastritis. The baby
cries, but the mother Ignorant of the
cause, believe that the child I hungry,', al
though it may have been fed only an hour
before. Is it any wonder that an overfed
child 111 with colic should cryT
"Perhaps the gravest mistake of the
mother lies In overfeeding her child. When
a baby cries, whether It be hungry or not,
it should not be fed more than every two
or three hour. Water boiled and then
cooled will atop the crying and will satisfy
the child.
Could parent be made to realize the
dangers that follow a bottle fed baby few
would care to run the risk. The statistic
of tho board of health show that on the
list of Infant mortality there are the
names of nine bottle fed children to one
that receive the natural mother' milk.
However, there are Instance where It Is
absolutely necessary to raise the baby on
a bottle. To mothers of these I would say
give the child bottled cow' milk, delivered
fresh every day and kept on ice until re-
qulred.vAfter every meal the baby' bottle
should be washed thoroughly, then boiled
for ten minutes In a solution of borax and
water. The nipple should be turned inside
out and vigorously scrubbed with a brush
in boraclo acid.
Dr. Rlegelman laid particular stress on
the necessity of keeping a child In the
open air, but warned the children against
allowing the sun to shine In the baby' eye.
The lecturer 'I one of the committee of
the Public Health Protective association,
and has been connected with the Board
of Health for the last three year. During
that time she haa visited daily five schools
All of which are situated In the heart of
the tenement district The children attend
lng these school are tor th most part
foreigners, in many Instance Italian and
Polish Jews of tho poorer classes. Of the
200 children In the class who heard the
lecture there were probably a half dozen
who looked aa if their parent were com
paratively well to do. The youngster were
at least bealthy looking. The others,, how
ever, were ; pale faced arid poorly dressed.
Some were alone, but tha greater nnmber
carried babies . ranging In age from two
months to 2 year. But In every Instance
the same eagerness and anxiety to learn
was manifested. A few of th children
had come Just to hear the doctor, whose
presence Is so fully appreciated in the
poorer quarters of the city.
Dr. Rlegelman . Is a gradual of ' th
Woman' Medical college of New York, of
the Woman' Medical college of Baltimore
and of the John Hopklna-tiniversity. ' She
ha been a member of the visiting staff ot
nearly every leading hospital in Brooklyn
and New York.
