T. R. DEFFENDS HIS
NEW NATIONALISM
Colonel in Speech at Cincinnati
Declares Corporations Are
Forcing Federal Control
APPROVES TAFT'S APPOINTEES
Leader Cox Meets Former Presi
dent at Reception Held in
Longworth Home
[Associated Press]
CINCINNATI, Sept. 9. — Former
President Roosevelt defended his doc
trine of "new nationalism" in a speech
at the Ohio Valley exposition here
today.
He also commended President Taft
for his appointments of two public
office rs.
Colonel Roosevelt's day In Cincinnati
was one of the quietest he has had on
his western tour. There were no bands
to meet him, and the people of Cincin
nati had not a chance to see him, ex
cept when he was on the exposition
grounds in the afternoon.
The colonel's tour has been a severe
one and it was at his own request that
the day's program was simplified.
The colonel left the train at Tor
rance Road station, a suburb, and
spent the morning at the homo of Con
gressman Longworth, his son-in-law.
Then he went to the exposition
grounds looked at the exhibits, attend
ed a luncheon and delivered an address
In the Music hall.
Returning to the Longworth home, he
held a reception.
COX ATTEXIM
George B. Cox, leader of the Repub
lican party of Cincinnati, was there
and met the colonel.
After dinner the colonel went to the
opera at the exposition grounds. He
spent the night with the Longworths,
and is to leave early tomorrow for
Columbus and Plttsburg. He will
speak In both cities. From Plttsburg
he will go to New York, winding up
his western trip Sunday morning.
Col. Roosevelt, in defending "new
nationalism," replied to those who op
pose his plan of increasing the power
of the central government for the pur
pose of dealing with conservation, the
control of corporations and other
questions.
"They say, 'Do not give the govern
ment too much power,' " he said.
"Certainly not. I do not want to give
the government any more power than
Is necessary. You would not have to
have so much power in the national
government If you were dealing with
Individuals, none of whom were very
rich, but when you get an aggregation
of ricb—indivlduals you must master
them through the government.
onE GOVERNMENT A CHANCE
"Some of the people will say that
Interferes with Individualism. It does
not. It Is giving the government a
chance. The Individual has no chance
If you permit a business monopoly to
be established or permit it to develop
so that a single man is powerless
against It or can be crushed by It.
Under the law there has grown up a
system of enormous monopoly which,
in fact, Is the very negation of In
dividualism, and the government Is re
quired to regulate these great concerns
to permit the average Individual citizen
to retain his rights unimpaired.
"I am not speaking In hostility to
corporations. I recognize the need of
the great corporation as a necessary
instrument In modern individualism."
Col. Roosevelt indorsed the appoint
ment by President Xaft of President
Arthur T. Hadley of Yale university
as head of the commission to investi
gate the capitalization of railroads,
and of Joseph A. Holmes as chief of
the bureau of mines.
After saying that men appointed to
do work for the benefit of the people
should be chosen without regard to
political affiliations, he continued:
APPROVES APPOINTMENT
"We have a bureau of mines, and
President Taft has recently appointed
as the head of that bureau the best man
that possibly could have been chosen
to fill the place—Mr. Holmes, a man
whom I know from his .professional
work, although I don't know his poli
tics.
"I am exceedingly glad the president
has appointed a man like Mr. Hadley
of Yale to look Into the question of rail
road capitalization. You will find some
worthy people who are willing to have
the government look Into this question
of capitalization, but they want it left
to the states to deal with.
"There is an instance of two railroads
that run from Minnesota westward to
Puget sound, and they were violating
the laws o* the government, and vio
lating the laws of the states through
which they run. The government start
ed to bring suit against them. It was
at once contended that it was a matter
for the states; but while the railroads
ran through Minnesota, North Dakota,
Montana, Idaho and Washington, they
were incorporated in New Jersey, and
have not a mile of track In New Jer
sey. There is but one power that can
deal with that railroad, and that is the
government. There Is but one power
that can deal with big corporations
that carry on interstate business, and
that Is the government. Anything that
can be dealt with by the states I be
lieve in carrying it on that way. But
business Is now centralized, and we
have to exercise authority to control
WATERWAYB
Col. Roosevelt also referred to the
deep waterway question. He said:
"One of the greatest difficulties In
the development of our waterways
hitherto has been the tendency for con
gress each year to apportion a number
of pieces of work, not in accordance
with any one well settled scheme, but
In accordance with the exigencies, or
rather in accordance with the declam
atory efforts of claimants and the per
severance of the representatives of the
several localities desiring them."
The great need of the future In the
matter of waterways improvement, he
said, was the appointment of men of
unouestioned integrity, who would act
in the interest of the whole people."
Col. Roosevelt had a fight with the
crowds when he tried to make the
rounds of the exposition grounds.
Everywhere he went he was followed
by a throng of people which the police
were not able to control.
More than 1000 persons attended the.
reception at Mr. Longworth's home In
the afternoon. • After dinner Col. Roose
velt stopped in at the lodge rooms of
the Order of Railway Firemen and
went to the opera.

covered Perpetual Motion
NEW YORK, Sept. 9.—A New York
tailor announces modestly to the
world in a six-page typewritten state
ment that he has Invented the "great

perpetual motion.
"Count Zeppelin is using some of my
Ideas," says the tailor In his state
ment. "I don't know how he got
them, but I've still got one great prin
ciple that he has not discovered.
That's perpetual motion. The ma
chinery which will run my craft will
be a combination of the bicycle and
this new perpetual motion. I'll give
the bicycle pedals a few turns, and
after that the machinery will go on
until I stop It. I'll only devote myself
to steering.
"The airship, which is now nearing
completion, will carry twenty per
sons. The first trip will be to Wash
ington, where I shall pay my respects
to President Taft and congress. Any
twenty persons who want to go with
me will be welcome. After that I'm

RODENTS IMPERIL
TREASURY PAPERS
Dogs and Ferrets Are Engaged to
Clear Washington Depart
ments of Pests
WASHINGTON, Sept. 9.—One of the
most crowded rooms In the treasury
building, a room wherein dozens of
young women sit counting money, was
thrown Into chaos the other day by a
small, slender, harmless-looking ani
mal. It was yellow in color and had
pink ey.es, and when it appeared on a
flat-topped desk an aged negro mes
senger and a young feminine clerk saw
it at the same time. They jumped at
once. The negro emitted a pious
"Gawd 'lmighty!" from his ashen lips.
The young woman let out a wordless
shriek and fled.
Chief Clerk Ludlow of the treasury,
coming to the rescue, saw the little
beat blinking in the unaccustomed
light and burst out laughing. Where
upon the women grew calmer and an
grier.
"Why, that's only one of Barclays
ferrets," said Ludlow. "He has been
hunting rats in here for a week."
"Heavens!" said one of the women.
"I'd rather have the rats."
The ferret was shooed back into the
rat hole from which he had emerged
and order was restored.
"The rats have become so bad in the
treasury," Mr. Ludlow explained,
"that we had to send for old man Bar
clay and his ferrets and dogs. He is
busy working the building now and
expects to have the rats out In a week
or so."
Edward E. Barclay and, his son,
Clarence, and their ferrets and dogs
are the last resort in rat catching in
Washington. They have cleaned up
almost every public building, including
the White House, and are about ready
to make the rounds again.
RECORDS EATEN BY RATS
Recently certain records In the trea
sury were destroyed by the rats which
Infest the subterranean vaults and
Chief Clerk Ludlow became uneasy.
Poison was put everywhere, but the^
rats continued as prevalent as ever.
They even became bold enough to
come to the upper floors and made in
cursions upon the lunch of the clerks
in the daytime. This the department
would stand. It is not partial to lunch
eating In the building, anyhow.
But the safety of the records was a
different matter, so Mr. Ludlow sent
for Barclay. And Barclay agreed to
clean out all the rats in the treasury
department for $150. L.udlow accepted
his proposition and Old Man Barclay
turned the Job over to his son, Clar
ence.
"Now, I know all about dogs, said
Barclay, "but Clarence is the one who
knows ferrets backward. When that
boy hasn't got a ferret around he's
lonesome. He can handle 'em as no
body elso can, and I want to tell you
handling ferrets is no joke. You've
got to be careful."
The conversation occurred in Bar
clay's dog und pet shop, In the rear
of the postofflce department and front
ing on the open space, where all the
nearby hucksters congregate to load
up from the Centre market.
The Barclay shop is a wonderful
place, covered with wonderful signs.
Barclay describes himself as "Barclay,
the Dog and Ferret Man." Besides, he
takes pets of all sorts to board. And
he has a rare, collection.
STRANGE COLLECTION OF PETS
On a perch, from which It hurls out
profanest maledictions upon the casual
visitor, is a green parrot. In a corner
is what Barclay says, the only smooth
co'atel St. Bernard dog in existence.
Wandering about at will are fox ter
riers bird dogs and nondescript rat
dogs and, last but not least. Tom,
the gray cat, who wandered In out
of the wet one winter's night about
three years ago and became the Bar
clay mascot.
"There ain't but one thing in thin
building that Tom is afraid of," said
old man Barclay, as the old gray cat
entered the window, a fresh caught
rat in his mouth, "and that's the goat.
I've had that goat for sale here for
about two months and in that time she
has become ruler of the roost.
"Sometimes these rat dogs and bird
dogs that I let wander loose get gay
with Tom. And Tom cleans up for
'em. He's a hefty specimen, Tom is,
as you can see for yourself, and car
ries as much damage In either hand as
Jack Johnson. But the goat has got
Tom's goat, all right.
ONE BUTT WAS ENOUGH
"One day not long after the goat
came in here Tom went over and rub
bed against her. The goat gave Tom
a mild butt and Tom got sassy. He
scratched the goat on the nose. Where
upon the goat got busy. She arose on
her hind legs and brought her head
forward, sort of putting the reverse
English on an uppercut, as you might
say. Tom went sailing across the
room and brought up, limp, against
the wall.
"I worked over Tom for half an
hour before I straightened him out.
He doesn't bother the goat any more.
"But you came hero to talk about
rat-catching. Well, it is a lot of fun,
but there is a lot if skill in It, too.
"Now when I take a contract to
clean out a big building of any sort,
and I have cleaned out nearly every
big government building !n Washing

"Sometimes we kill hundreds, then
again we get only one or two. But
when my boy Clarence and his- ferrets
and dogs have been working in a big
building a couple of weeks, night after
night, the rats leave that building and
stay away from It for months to come."
BELL WILL LAUNCH
COUNTY CAMPAIGN
Democratic Candidate for Gover

stores Confidence in Party,
Declares Norton
Theodore A. Bell, Democratic nomi
nee for governor, will open his cam
paign In Southern California about
September 24, according to letters re
ceived here from the north yester
day.
Mr. Bell will practically launch the
Democratic campaign with a big rally
and mass meeting in Los Angeles, the
exact date and place of which are yet
to be determined.
During the last ten days of October,
It was stated by Albert M. Norton,
chairman of the county central com
mittee, yesterday, Mr. Bell will con
duct a whirlwind campaign through
out Los Angeles county, making
speeches at every town of importance.
He probably will make two or three
speeches during that period in Los
Angeles.
"Mr. Bell's tour of Los Angeles coun
ty," said Mr. Norton yesterday, "will
be one of the most rousing and en
thusiastic ever witnessed in the south
land.
"Mr. Bell and other Democratic
nominees are confident of their vic
tory in the north, and while they have
every reason to feel that the southern
end of the state will poll a heavy
vote for the Democratic ticket, they
feel that a general campaign of pub
licity will be necessary here to edu
cate the people as to the real Issues,
and the merits of the respective nomi
nees. The most vigorous fight will be
waged In this end of the state, and It
will begin In Los Angeles.
"We are receiving a great deal of
encouragement from every ' conceiv
able source, and If there is anything
in appearances, Mr. Bell will not have
to turn over a hand to become the
next governor of California; but W6
are not going to leave anything un
done that will enhance his opportunity
and insure his success.
"The Democrats of Los Angeles are
manifesting considerable enthusiasm
in the pending campaign, such has not
marked an election contest in this
county for many years, and we re
gard It as an Indication of the popu
larity of the Democratic nominees and
Issues, showing that confidence has
been restored in our party, and in its
principles, as a result of the terrific
struggle we have waged against Sou
thern Pacific bossism and corrupt pol
itics."
