The Department of Agriculture haa '

typhoid fever, some of which could be
traced to the eating of raw oysters J
obtained from the supply furnished '
from local markets, a supply which is j
obtained largely from th? oyster bfds
of the Potomac River. This led the
department to direct that a thorough

character of the water of the Potomac
River be made_ and that conditions ;
along the river which might be con?
sidered as contributing to pollution be
inquired into. Accordingly trips of
Investigation were made, samples of
the water were obtained from approxi?
mately every five-mile section of the!
river, from Washington to point Look- j
out. at Its mouth.
In addition, samples of oysters were
obtained directly from the oyiur
grounds, and other ssmples of both

many of the tributar.es. especially'

taken for market purposes.

Through Secretary of Treasury
President Directs Heads of All
Departments to Make Esti?

With This Method.
J Beverly, Mass., September 19.?Pres
; Ident Taft to-night made public a let
! ter to Secretary of the Treasury
Franklin MacVeagh, taking open issue
, with Congress on the question of a
Federal budget, and dire'jtln?; all heads
, of government departments or inde?
pendent officers of the government to
make their estimates of revenue and
expenditures for the fiscal year In cor
formity m-lth the budget plan.
The President s letter to Mr. SJjac
Veagh declared that the prohibit.->n
in the big supply bills pass?d by the
House in the la?t session practleally
forbidding th? use of a budget system
is unconstitutional. He said that no
other great nation in the world is
without a budget system; pointed out
that only through this method can ac?
curate estimates be made for the coun?
try's benefit to show how the people's
money is belna expended, and scored
the effort of Congress to present its
adoption His letter to Mr MacVeagh
reads in part as follows:
"If the President is to assume re- ;
sponslbiilty for either the manner in .
which business of the government is
transacted or results obtained. It is
evident that he cannot be limited by
<"'ongr??s to auch information as that
bran-h may think sufficient for his
purposes, in my opinion, it is entirely .
competent for the President to nubmit |
to Congress and to the country a ?tat?- :
mer.t of resources, obligations, rev- j
enueii, expenditures and estimates, in
the fo-m he ?teems advisable. And this
power 1 propose to exercise.

"The I'nited States is the only great ?
country tnat d'jes not have a budget. ;
Each year the Congress has been mak- .
ing increasingly iarge appropriations
bas"d on escalates which are sub- !
mttted by officers acting in the ca- ;
parity of ministerial agents to Con- '.
gress, under a law which makes no.
provisions whatever for executive re?
view and revision. This I have sought
in a measure to correct by asking the '
heads of departments to send estimates
to me before they were printed, but
the conditions attached by Congress :
have been such as to make executive
review imp>ssible.
"The present -legal directions as to
estimates are based on the theory
that there is no need to take stock
before passing on appropriations; that
it i.? not necessar.- to consider reve?
nues or treasury resources. Congress

to ahake hands with thos- "? ho presse t

ley College girls were on the same
train With Governor Wilson and they
came back to the special car to meet
him.
At KalamaJoo. Mich., a crowd of col?
legians gave the Governor a cheer,
it was there that he made his long-st
.--peech of the afternoon.
"I have found that the subjects to
ho discussed in this campaign are so
tremendous that they can hardly be ?
handled in speeches from the rear
end of the train." eaud the Governor.
"Moreover, the rear platform ia not the
Democratic platform this time. We I
are at the front and not at the back.
But I must say that since I have got I
into Michigan I have felt a singular,
stimulation because we have stopped'
at several other cities and everywhere I
there is the same apirit of hope and '
confidence.
Genuinely Interested.
" I can explain it only thU way. that j
we are genuinely interested in the one
Sabject that lies nearest my own heart, !
namely, setuing the government free, i
Because whether it was due intention- !
ally or not, there is no doubt about it.
that our government in recent years i
has been aerloualy entangled with ape- j
dal Interests of various kinds and the'
men who got it entangled cannot get!
it disentangled. There ia the whole
matter. There is no time to discuss I
here how we got into It or how we
are to get out of It. The point is that j
the people of the United States have j
made up their minds to get out of it.1
and there ts only one team ready to
do the bus'ness, and that is the Demo?
cratic team. I am speaking in the
terms of a man who has been forming
a football team at college. I know
the third team ia not organized. It
does not even know the signals and the
regular Republican team ia very much
weakened. It haa lost some of its
principal players. But there have been
no losses on the Democratic side. On
the contrary, there have been a great
many gains and the game is familiar,
to the Democrats that we have to play
now." i

recently said that he did not suggest '
this change just the other day, that
he had suggested it while he was Pres?

fort to extenJ Richmond's trade reia-,
lions through the South. Able ad-'
dresses were made by representatives
of both of the States visited, but the
feature of the evening was the first
public appearance in Richmond
of Richmond's new Mayor?George
Ainslie.
The Boosters' special train arrived
at Main Street Station, over the Sea?
board Air Line Railway, six minutes
ahead of the scheduled time. Special
cars were in readiness to take the
Boosters to Fifth and Main Streets,
where an escort of mounted police

bers of the commercial organizations
of the city fell in. the march being
made up Broad *to Mad son. to FranK
lin, to Laurel, and thence to the City
Auditorium. Notwithstanding the four
days of Intense effort, every member of
the Booster party was in line, and
marched for Richmond to the tuuea
of the Boosters' band.
Tosr of Education.
Charles T. Norman, president of tne
Ketail Merchants' Association, presided
at the Auditorium, the music being

Preslident T. M. Carrngton, of the
Chamber of Commerce.
"Wherever we went." said Mr. Car
rington. "as soon as they found we
were from Richmond the name brought ?
enthusiasm and attention. We told th*
people of two States that we had the
coal and iron and they the tobacco, and
that by standing shoulder Jo shoulder
we couid lead in the prosperity of the
world. We expect great benefits from
the trip, which was in reality a tour
of education. We got very close to?
gether on that trip and had heart-to
herat talks about Richmond's welfare.
Plans were there laid which will have
their effect on the position Richmond
should occupy as the market place of
the South "
Ovation fee A1 nolle.

activity ->f their enterprise.
"Thanks to the generosity and en?
terprise of The Times-Dispatch." said
Mayor Ainslie. "and to the Indomitable
will and energy of 100 of cur business
men who have Just returned, Richmond
has received an advertisement la the
Carolinas the value of which Is hardly
capable of being calculated la dollars
and cents. Nothing has been done on
the entire trip to cause censure or tn
bring complaint fr>m even the most
hypercritical. Nothing that human ac?
tivity could do has been left undone
to present Richmond as a market place
for the Carolinas.
Xo Joy Ride. Says Mayor Alaatte.
"It has been no joy ride, but a msn's
work performed by men. I was Initi?
ated ss n spesker for tke Booster
movement at a 5-cent theatre in Rocky
Mount at half-past 7 o'clock in the
