OYSTF.H HAY. Hei.t. 'J1.-I.nte to
day Secretary I.oeb gave to tho press
a formal statement by tho president
called by recent exchanges between W.
It. Hearst and Hcnntor Foraker. Hearst
In public utterances accused Fornker
of relations with Standard Oil Incon
sistent with his duties as a senator and
his attitude as a representative of re
publican policies and professions. In
his statement the president makes an
other appeal for the support of Taft
The president points out tnnt Taft's
attitude has always been directly op
posed to that charged against Foraker
recording the money Interests.
In his statement th president says
that liofore the, nomination of raft,
pressure was brought to bear on raft
to the consent nf Forager's rennmina
tlon for senator, in return for which
Foraker would withdraw from the
presidential race. Taft declined to
a
consider the proposition. The stale
ment continues: "Foraker ,ias been
tho leader nmong those membors of
congress of both parties who were res
olutely opposed to the.gnit policies of
Internal reform of which the nilmlnis
trntlon made itself responsible. His
attitude has been that nf certain put)
lie men, notably (as shown by the
Kline correspondence, published by
Hearst) Governor Haskell, of Oklaiio
ma. There is a striking difference,
however, as Hnskell stands hign In the
pnnnclls of Hrvan. Is treasurer of the
national committee, while Foraker

bittered fashion fought Taft's noiiilna

.oreVioiidence is not merely jtistlfind,
in striking fashion, by the action oi
H... administration, but it also easts
a serious sldclignt on the attacks upon
n... n.liidiiltttmtinn both at tbo Denver
lnn. and in Ilryan's campaign
There is but one way to preserve anil
perpetuate the policies of this admin-
;.ir,.iIoo and that is by electing
T .lefeat him will bring Instlng satis
faction to but one set, namely, those
behind Foraker In opposition
to Taft, and now behind Haskell and
his associates. The entire nguauon
it,.. HrnwnHvllle affair in large
part is not tho genuine ngitntion of
Hnltlmore colorert men, nui i" ....m- v
one phase of the efforts of representa-
tlves of certain law-defying corpor-
tious to bring discredit upon M.e a.i
ministration."

Xoosevelt In a letter to Wllliaui H
MeKlnley, chairman of the congres
slonnl committee, made public today,
appeals to disinterested citizens to
join with tne national republican com
mittee and congressional committee in
the movemenUo elect William H. Taft
president, and a republican congress to
support him.
After reviewing some of the legUla-
tion for thu Inst seven years, tho pres
ident declared that Taft and the re
publican candidates for congress seek
.lection on n platform which specifi
cally ple'dges tho party to continue to
. . ... .... 1 .t
develop tne policies wnicn imvo um-h
ncted upon for tho last sevt'ral years.
All ntd that can bo givon to perpotu-

now carried on, tho president says,
should bo given by every good citizen
and he ndiW that tho situation Is far
more than a partisan matter.
Hpeulnt to the JoornntMlner
WASHINGTON. Sept. 21. - The
greatest gathering the world has ever
seen for the study of tuberculosis and
the methods of its euro and prevention
began In this city today. Physicians,
nygicnists, sociologists and humanita
rians from all parts of the world have
assembled to exchange views on the
best mothods for conducting the m id
em crusade against the white plague,
a problem now recognized as the most
Important and nbsorblng which meJI
cnl science ever has been called upon
to solve. The session, today was of a
nriOItntnnrv character and was occu-
1 1
I'plie iwhsllr With the organization of
the body under the nnmo of tne. Inter
national Tuberculosis Congress.
Tne delegates to the congress num
ber several thousand. Among them are
many of the distinguished medical au
thorities not only of America but of
Great llrltaln, France, Germany, Italy
and several other countries of Lurope.
The governors of nearly nil tho states
have appoint"! delegat mil oflieial
representatives tire 011 hand also from
Canada. Mexico and several of the
South American republics. Tim ntt"ii
dance includes many public health of
ficials as well as medical scientists and
tuberculosis experts.
The congress plans to remain in
session three weeks. During this time
so many nbMirbiiig pauses of tho sub
ject will be considered that it Is dini-
cult to designate those that will lie
most important.. The feature of the
congre-s thai l attracting most pub
lic Interest is the tuberculosis exlilui
tion. Tl leetings of the congress are
heinu held In the new national museum
and the exhibition has been Installeil
there. It covers flftv thousand square

Imnortant still will bo tho discussion
nf the prevention of the disease. The
oongress, In fact, will b" a reflection of

be Impracticable to give any Idea of
the number and variety of suiijeets
that will come up before tho congress

r!p-clat to the Journal-Miner
WASHINGTON, Sept. 21. -Tan obi
regime iu the Senate of the United
States N fast passing away. New bUo4
has been injected rapidly during the
past ten years. The conservatism for
which that body has been noted la
yielding before the absorption of new
er nnd yuuuger forces that show little
respect for the traditions of the body
that for more than half u century hav
operated as Its unwritten law absolute
ly controlling tue methods of traaa
ncting the public business ami domi
nating tho (tarty organization. Pub
lic men have witnessed the passtaK nt
this- old order of things with vnrylag
emotions. Does It presage good or
rjvil for the people, Is the quostina
thai can only be answered in thu lifht
of an experience tl,a Is yd to c.oai
in the Americun congress. The "pro
gressives," as Governor Cummins, of
luwii, and those who think as ne docjjs
call themselves, look forward to the
day when the senate shall be relieved
of the "shackles" that now bind it
to ancient forms und customs, as tlra
dawning of u new era iu the country.
Those public men who still cling ta
the methods of the past quarter of a
century mid woo contend that th
conservatism of the senate, acting as
a deterrent to the aggressiveness of
the house nf roproseyitnlws, is essen
tial to the salvation of tho govern
incut mid the only guarantor of safe
and sane legislation are alarmed at the
wuy Iu which they nre being pushed
aside from the Important seats in the
councils of the nation.
This substitution of younger in 11
for thi veterans In the "upper nouse"
has been going on rapidly. Vhe death
of Senator Allison, of Iowa, the "falh
er of the fcnate," prnbnbly marks the
final disintegration of the old regime
The senior senator from lown, with
