same name, who are partners in a
prosperous manufacturing business at
1436 North Broadway, St. Louis. The
children were last seen by their
parents when they went out with
Samuel Ttirrissi, a relative, to get
some ice cream. The following day
the Viviano family received unsigned
letters which demauded $25,OOU for
the return of the children. The let-
ters instructed the Vivianos to leave
the money near Wellston. A “plant"
was made there, and the detectives
watched it, but no one came to the
spot in search of the money. The
police of Chicago got what was con-
sidered a clow to the children, but
were unable to find them. The Vivi-
anos are natives of Palermo and
there is a colony of about 100 of their
relatives in St. Louis. The kidnaping
Is laid lo the Black Hand.
PINCHOT WARNS COUNTRY
The police of all the large cities of
the United States are searching the
various Italian quarters for Tommy
Viviano, five years old, and his cous-
in, Orace Viviano, aged three, who
were stolen frurn their homes In St.
Iambs on August 1 and are being held
somewhere for a ransom of $25,000.
The two, tots are the children of Pie-
tro Viviano and his cousin, of the
the situation can doubt that the time
for effective protest is very short.
Failure to Act Now Fatal;
"ir we do not use tt to protect our-
selves now, we may be very sure that
the trust will give hereafter small
consideration to the welfare of the av-
erage citizen when in conflict with its
own.
"Tire man who really counts is the
plain American citizen. This is the
man for whom the Roosevelt policies
wore created, and his welfare Is the
cud to which the Roosevelt policies
lead. As a nation we are fortunate
at this lime in this fact above all oth-
ers, that the great man who gave
his name to these policies has for his
successor another great president
whose administration is most solemnly
pledged to the support of them.
Firm for Roosevelt Policies.
“[ stand for the Roosevelt,policies
because they set the common good of
all of us above the private gain of
some of us; because they recognize the
livelihood of the small man as more
important to the nation than the profit
of the big man; because they oppose
all useless waste at present at the cost
of robbing the future; because they de-
mand the complete, sane, and orderly
development of our t.. ai resources,
not forge'ting our ri -s; because
they insist upon equal, of oppor-

owns the land from which ho makes
his living. No other man has such
a stake in the country. No other man
lends such steadiness and stability
to our national life. Therefore, no
other question concerns us more inti-
mately than the question of homes.
“Permanent homes for ourselves, our
children, and our nation—this is the
central problem. The policy of nation-
al irrigation is of value to the United
States in very many ways, hut the
greatest of all is this, that national
irrigation multiplies the men who
own the land from which they make
their living.
“The old saying, ‘Who ever heard of
a man shouldering hiB gun to light for
his boarding house,’ reflects this great
truth, that no man is so ready to de-
fend his country, not, only with arms,
but with ids vote, and his contribution
to public opinion as the man with a
permanent stake in it, as the inan who
owns the laud from which he makes
his living.
A Nation of Farmers.
“Our country began as a nation of
farmers. During the periods that gave
it its character, when our indepen-
dence was won and when our union
was preserved, we were pre-eminently
a nation of farmers. ^
“We cannot and we ought not to con-
tinue exclusively, or even chiefly, an
law, or the form of an institution,
without intelligent regard both for its
spirit and for the public welfare, is
very nearly as dangerous as to disre-
gard the law altogether. What we
need is the use of iho law for the pub-
lic good, and the construction of it
for the public welfare. ,
Danger of Law’s Misinterpretation.
“It goes without saying that the law
is supreme anil must he observed. Our
civilization rests on obedience to law.
RutXtbe law is not absolute. It re-
quires to be construed. Rigid construc-
tion of the law works, and must work,
in the vast majority of cases, for the
benefit, of the men who can hire the
best lawyers and who have the sources
of influence in law-making at their
command. Strict construction neces-
sarily favors the great interests as
against the people, and in the long
run cannot do otherwise. Wise exe-
cution of the law must consider what
the law ought to accomplish for the
general good.
“The great oppressive trusts exist
because of subservient law-makers ami
adroit legal constructions. Here is the
central strong hold of the money power
in the everlasting conflict of tile few
to grab, and of the many to keep or
win the rights they were born with.
Legal technicalities esldom help the
people. The people, not the law, should
have the benefit of every doubt.
The Problem of Today.
COPPER WAS STRONG
New York, Au*. 10.—Professional* who
attempted to anticipate the expected
prof jinking by aborts* In the *to<k mar-
ket yesterday were compelled to cover up
tin n aborts today. This Unii t OvertUR
was responsible for a la ike i»art of the
early strength. However, the market as
a whole fell into semi stagnation us the
day advanced. It ii not improbable that
the stiffening call loan rate bad any influ-
ence in restraining opemtlona. Call loans
were made above the two per cent rate
from the outset.
Amongst the special points of strength
today, Kock Island was conspicuous and
with considerable effc. t on speculative
senttm< in owing to the guspectced iden-
tify of the oontroilink interest in the
property as the most ugjocssivn forces
hi the present stock market. The «row-
Iiikt earning* of the Hock Island company
tfivo occasion for spe< ulution over a re-
sumption of the dividends on the pre-
ferred stock suspended since 1905.
The copper sroup was strengthened by
the July statistics of the Copper Pro-
ducers’ association. -The month's statin-
tbs of the copper reduction in stocks of
31.261,454 pound* represents more than
half t lie total reluct Ion which, had oc-
curred from the maximum surplus on
April 30 last.
Bonds were irregular. Total sales, par
value, $3,438,00.
United States bonds unchanged on cull.
Crop Condition!.
Washington, Aug. 1»>.—Crop conditions
in the United States on August 1, 1909,
wore in the aggregate slightly higher
than on August 1, 1908, and moderately
higher, than a ton-year average condition
of all crop* on August 1. In addition to
the higher condition, the average of cul-
tivated crop* is about i t* per t ent greater
than last year. So hu\s a general review
of crop conditions issued today.
CLOSING STOCK QUOTATIONS

eun raise food enough for many. But trations of capital, the Intelligent use
the farmer who owns his land is still
the backbone of the nation, and ouo

The Problem of Homes.
“The nation that will lead the world
will be a nation of homes. The ooject
of the great conservation movement
is just this, to make our country a
permanent and prosperous home for
ourselves and for our children, and
for our children's children, and it

wo are coming to see that the plain

action are necessary, and the straight
thinking comes first. To make '.t'is
country what we need to have it, w?
must think clearly and directly about
our problems, and above all we must
understand what me real problems ate.
The grcht things are few and simple,
but they are too often hidden by false
issues, and conventional, unreal think-
ing. The easiest way to hide a real
issue always has been, arid always will
be, to replace it with a false one.
Need of Equality of Opportunity.
“The first thing we need in this
country, as President Roosevelt so
well set forth In that great message
which told what he had been trying
to do for the American people, is
equality of opportunity for every citi-
zen. No man should have less, and no
man ought to ask for any more. Equal-
ity of opportunity is the real object
of our laws and institutions.
“Our institutions and our laws are
not valuable in themselves. They are
valuablo only because they secure
equality of opportunity for happiness
and welfare of our citizens. An in-
stitution or a law is a means, not an
end, a means to be used for the pub
lie good, to be modified for the pub-

no significance that the General Elec-
tric interests are acquiring great
groups of wafer powers in various
parts of the United States, and domi-
nating the power market in the region
of each group. And whoever dominates

Lumberman Talks.
George S. Long, representing the
lumbermen of the northwest, himsolt
connected with a big lumber concern
in Seattle, denied that the interests of
the lumbermen are inimical to those
of the consumer.'' He said the lumber-
man is only trying to supply a healthy
demand and that reforestation will
begin in earnest when the demand
has reached the high price point.
E. T. Allen, United Stales district
forester, elicited applause when he ap-
pealed for safe and sane lumbering
and for the conservation of water.
