ADVICE FROM MR ALDRICH
The President Consults the ithode
Island Senator
Rcc nmmciielntleinM In tlie Forth
ceimln leNnge lleciiroti mill
Turin CIiiiiikc s Ilkelj to Ho iKiior
eil Mr ltoueiell SfeUiiiif Counsel
Interest In the probable recommenda
tions of the President in his first annual
message to Congress was actively re
vived jestcrday bj a consultation between
Mr Roosevelt and Senator Aldricli of
Ithode Island Chairman of the rinancc
Committee Mr AlJrlch Is gen rally rec
ognized as one of the ablest and best
iitted men in Congress so far as finan
cial questions are concerned Since be
ing elected to the House of Representa
tives a quarter of a centurj ago he has
mado a continuous ami exhaustive study
of the financial and tariff questions He
has been in the Senato continuously for
twent Jcnrs and in that time has been
a power In- the forming of financial and
tariff legislation
It was generally known that the Frcsl
Hnt had asked Mr Aldricli to come to
Washington jesterday to discuss with him
questions that are to be dealt with in
his message and It was expected that
after the conference the Senator might
have something to sty that would Indi
cate his views with regard to legislation
to be proposed at the coming session
The Senator however disappointed those
who were anxious to obtain his views by
arriving at the White House just In the
nick of time to keep his engagement for
luncheon at 130 and after his consulta
ton with the President going directly to
the station to catch the Congressional
Limited train for New York at 4 oclock
During the two hours and more that
the President and Senator Aldrich wire
together they unit over every important
subject to be discussed In the message
nid the Senator gave his opinions frcclv
and fully and In the straightforward man
ner o characteristic of him Something
of what he must have said to the Presi
dent imj be guessed at by a knowledge
of the Senators attitude on questions that
formed in part the subject of jestcrdnj s
conversation
Senator Aldrlth thinks now as he
thought during the last session of Con
gress and as he more than once said to
President McKlnlej first that there
should be no change In the currency laws
at the coming session the IndHnapolis
committee and ail other currency reform
ers to the contrary notwithstanding sec
ond that theic should be no tinkering
with the tariff through the medium of the
proposed Babcock bill the negotiation of
reciprocity treaties or otherwise third
that there should be as little general leg
islation as possible as In his opinion
what the continued commercial prosperity
demands now Is a recognition of the old
adage let well enough alone
Because of Senator Aldrichs well
known oppositlor to the ratification of
the pending reciprocity treaties with
France the Argentine Republic and other
countries It is fair to assume that he
talked about them with the President yes
tcrdaj Whether or not he did so the
fact has developed as a result of the In
terest aroused bj the Senator s visit that
these treaties some of which are on the
Senate calendar others having been re
ferred back u the Committee on For
eign Affairs will never come to a vote If
for no other reason than that they have
died by the lap e of the time during which
they shtuld have been ratified by the
Senate The time allowed by the DInglcy
tariff law- under which the treaties were
negotiated has been twice extended and
if it shall not have entirely elapsed bv the
time the Senate is readv to consider the
treaties It will not be lengthened
The fat almost forgotten by the pub
lic that the DInglej law provides that
these treaties must be agreed to by both
Houses of Congress after being ratified
by the Senate has been brought to the
attention of the President several times
of late and those who favor the treaties
are now willing to admit that even
should the Senate ratifv them they can
not beceme effective without the further
approval of the House of Representa
tives The acceptance of this fact adds
a new feature to the discussion of the
probable fate of the pending treaties and
makes their ratification within the time
limit or afterward should it be extend
ed as practically impossible
Several of Senator Aldrlchc Republican
colleagues on the rinance Committee
agree with him In opposing the reciprocity
treaties They are particularly opposed
to the convention with France which
they say was made at the Instance and In
the Interest primarily of the manufac
turers of agricultural Implements and
that this treity as well as nearly If not
quite all of the others Is so unscientifical
ly constructed as to give the United
States the small end of the bargain all
the way through
Those Senators think and many of
tnem as benator Aldrich did yesterday
have spoken their mind freely to Presi
dent Roosevelt They believe as probably
he does that reciprocity treaties are con
stitutional when approved by both Houses
of Congress as the law provides that
they must be but that the regulation of
the tariff should be left to the more di
rect action of Congress the Initiative of
course being with the House of Repre
sentatives
Judging by what the Influential Sena
tors and Representatives who ha e In en
In conversation with the President during
this month have raid to him it Ik prob
able that his first message to Congresn
will be less radical than has general
been supposed It will not recommend
changes in the currency laws Ii will not
recommend the ratification of the pending
reciprocttv treaties and it will not recom
mend specific changis of nny kind in the
present tariff laws It will be brief and
roierv alive and it Is reasonably safe to
Fay thit its more pointed recommenda
tions will be on the subjct of legislation
to deal with the growing power of indus
trial combinations or trusts On this lat
ter subject however Mr Roosevelts rec
ommendations will not be radical but
rather In the line of calling the attention
of Congress to the Importance of dealing
with the subject In some way of its own
that will be effective If such a can
1 found
The message 1r now written In ouline
hut the finishing touches will not be ap
plied until after the first of the omlng
month and until the President has hail
opportunity to further consult the influ
ential men of the Senate and House
hcnitor Allison of Iowa Chairman of the
Committee on Appropriations and second
ranking member of the Ilnane Commit
tee will give the President his lews by
request when he comes to Washington in
about ten davt Mr Allison Is known to
be of much the sime opinion -is his col
league Mr Aldrich on questions relating
to tariff and finance

Physicians Recommend Castor ia
QASTORIA has met with pronounced favor on the part of physicians pharma
ceutical societies and medical authorities It is used by physicians with
results most gratifying The extended use of Castoria is unquestionably the
result of three facts First Ska indisputable evidence that it is harmless
Second That it not only allays stomach pains and quiets the nerves but assimi
lates the food Third It is an agreeable and perfect substitute for Castor Oil
It is absolutely safe It does not contain any Opium Morphine or other narcotic
and does not stupefy It is unlike Soothing Syrups Batemans Drops Godfreys
Cordial etc This is a good deal for a Medical Journal to say Our duty how
ever is to expose danger and record the means of advancing health The day
for poisoning innocent children through greed or ignorance ought to end To
our knowledge Castoria is a remedy which produces composure and health by
regulating the system not by stupefying it and our readers are entitled to
