Syracise, N. Y., May 6,—The ethics of boss rule and machine politics as Theodore Roosevelt claims they were expounded by William Barnes, who is suing Colonel Roosevelt for damages for alleged libel, were related by the ex-President upon the witness stand in the supreme court here late yes- terday. The. colonel swore that Mr. Barnes had told him that the “riff- raff could not be trusted to handle political affairs-without a leader.” and had expressed himself as being in favor of the democratic and repyb- lican organizations combining to de- feat legislation providing for direct primaries. The colonel went upon the stand at the end of a day congested with tes- timony about public - printing . and public money. . He related what he allegéd to be the substance of com- ‘versations he had with the former chairman of the repubmman state committee over a period lasting from 1898 until he left the White House. He told his story with all the force« fulness at his command. In, part, it follows:: “Mr. Barnes and I had many con- versations upon the nature of the boss and the domination ‘of the machine. There was more than one conversa- tion concerhing the franchise tax billy There were some before Payn was removed; they were in the spring of 1899 and ‘again in the beginning of | 1900. Those conversations were upon the power of and the necessity for the machin under our system . of party government. ‘“Generally our conversations were held in the executive mansion at Al- any. We were entirely alone. Oth- ‘érs were held in the governor’s and the secretary’s chamber in the execu- tive offices at the capitol. We were entirely alone then, too. ..° Court Sustains Objection. ‘“‘Other conversations were held in the reception room, and probably oth- er persons were there. ‘We had one talk on a train from Albany to New York. One of the conversations was Just’ prior to the appointment of a successor to Payn (who had been re- moved from the office of state super- intendent of insurance.) 1 mentioned to Mr. Barnes a conversation I had with Senator Platt. He told me—" An objection by Mr. Barnes's coun- sel to what Mr, Platt told .the colonel was sustdined. The colonel contin- ued: 3 Riff-Raff Not to Be Trusted. “Well, the substance of our conver- sation was this: Mr. Barnes said it Was necessary that‘'the head 'of the organization should _have.. complete control and he instanced Albany county. He said the ‘riff-raff could not be trusted to handle political af- fairs without a leader. He said they would misconduct themselves at the 'expense of property and that the gov- ernment could not go on. “He said it was not’ necesary for the boss to issue orders to executive officials and legislators:and that they found out for themselves that if they did not support tdhe organization they could not get bills through, they ‘would not he renominated and they could not secure funds with which to carry on campaigns. It was said it was to their interests to find out what they should do and then do it. “Mr. Barnes said: ‘You know the senator does not bully. He does not have to.” He said it was quite sufficient to have it understood that if a man did not stand by the organization he got punished.” Laughter From Spectators. Laughter from the spectators inter- rupted the colonel. Then the witness said: “He got = punished and |was eliminated.” A John M. Bowers, chief counsel for the defendant, asked him: “You say there were similar con- versations while you were president?" “Didn’t I say that?”’ asked the colonel, pointing’ to the stenographer, “just read what I said there. Yes, T thought I did.” “What else did Mr. Bagnes asked Mr. Bowers. Business Mcn Coerced. The colonel replied: ; “Mr. Barnes said it was not nec- sary to ask business men for con- tributions, that they were not coerced into it. Mr. Barnes told me, either ‘at Oyster Bay or at the White House, -after the election of Governor Hughes that the organization had complete control of the legislature. He said ‘that the effort to pass the primary bill represented an effort to break down party government, and that the democratic and republican organiza- tions should make a common cause against the legislation. On another occasion he said the people could not govern themselves and that they had to have bosses.”” “You mentioned democrats making a common cause with republicans. Did you mean all democrats?” asked Mr. Bowers. The colonel, with a smile, replied: “I sald the democratic organization.” ‘“’Colonel Roosevelt,” said Mr. Bow- ers, “I show you articles that appeared in the ‘New York World® in May 1913, and ask you whether you read the publication of the articles com- plained of?' 1 did sir,” replied the witnes, 'Did you rely upon the statements contained therin?” “I relied upon them after making special inquiries about them.” -“Murphy Boys and Barnes Boys.” The articles were read.to the jury after they had been inspacted by Jus- tice William :S. Andrews, presiding. The first mehtioned a “perfect under- standing between the Murphy boys ' and the s boys” in the State As- say ?” - MILLS’ Q?__e 904 MAIN STREET, Hartford.

This commission, composed of lead- ing health officials and sanitarians, was appointed in 1911 by the New York Milk committee to recommend , standards of milk and milk products. widely circu- lated by the United States public health service. An announcement of the intention of the commission to take up the question of the control of milk pro- ducts stated that “it is now known that all of the dangerous diseases spread ‘through infected milk are also spread through ice cream and but- ter. In fact these products offer a good medium through which germs of typhoid fever, tuberculosis, dip- hetheria, scarlet fever, septic sore throat and other infectious diseases may be transferred from diseased an- imals and handlers to consumers.” Among the members of the com- mission are Dr. Carl 1. Alsberg, chief of the bureau of chemisty of the United States department of agricul- ture: Dr. John F. Anderson, director of the hygienic laboratory of the United States public health service; Dr. A.
