The attendance is unusually large, there be- ing delegates present from °every | n the trans-Missis- Alaska and the Ha- delegations are Colorado, Texas State and Territory sipp! region, from wallan Islands. Large present from Oregon, and Louisiana. The sessions are being held in Leschi Park Exposition hall on the shore of Lake Washington, some two miles from the center of the city.

The delegates were rather slow in as- | sembling and it was nearly 10 o'clock when Donald G. Fletcher, chairman of the local committee on arrangements, called the assembly to order. Mr. Flet- cher stated that the president of the Con- gress, Hon. John H. Kirby of Houston, , had been called suddenly to New York on important business and would be unable to be present at the sessions this year and that Judge C. J. Gavin, chairman of the executive committee, had been delayed in Portland on his way here. He therefore introduced Hon. Wal- | ter Gresham, former president of the as temporary presiding officer. am epoke briefly, referring to his connection with the congress in pre- vious years and expressing his confidence n the future usefulness of the organiza- | tion. He then Introduced Henry R. Mc- Bride of Washington, who, the State of Washington, delivered a *- | briet. address of welcome. | Following Governor McBride, Chairman | Gresham introduced Mayor Thomas J. | Humes, | behalf of the city of Seattle. OUR COMMERCIAL GROWTH. Thomas Richardson of New Orleans then read the annual address of Presi- dent Kirby. It was in part as follows: Gentlemen of the Congress: When Seattle was selected as the place at which to convene | the Fourteenth Trans-Mississippi Commercial Congress there were not & few Who shook their heads and declared that Seattle, looking out upon the far Pacific, was too distant from the populous region of the trans-Mississippl area to command a large attendance, Delegates from Louisiana and Texas who have respond- ed to the roll refute that prophecy.

Destiny directed at volce, and when it lwke it declared anew the doctrine of the survigal of the fittest and blazed the way for Amefican supremacy over the world. Since that portentous hour, Wwith the economies for the promotion of which it was organized disposed of in a large measure, the mission of the Trans-Miesissippi Commer- cial Congress is become to insist on opening up the routes to the markets of the Orfent and to the Pacific Coast States of Latin America that the surplus products of the country may find profitable sale, for by no other pollcy s it pos- sible to insure and to maintain the prosperi and the commercial supremacy of the Lnlltd ‘Already the rapid commercial growth of the 1 Lmud Ftates has aroused a jealousy and ap- rehension on the part of European powers Ihieh all their infinite diplomacy cannot con- This is grati{ying to American pride, but it likewise is a challenge to American genius.

The excess multiplied by leaps and in behalf of | who welcomed the delegates In | of our exports over imports is greater than that of all other countries combined. And it is the trade balance that determines commer- clal primacy. The total exports for the year 1902 amounted to the dizzy aggregate of $1,- 000,000. As recently as 1870 the total ex- s were but $376,000,000, or $60,000,000 less than the aggregate imports for that year, and yet, as gratifying as is the vast balance be- tween exports and imports, it is but small when compared to that which will obtain when we shall take from Germany and Great Britain the import trade of the Pacific Coast States of Latin America, our geographical her- itage, and crow upon the Asiatic the products of our flour and cotton mills and looms and foundries and machine #hops.

We invite Veter- ans to step into any drug store or call at our office, 409 Washington street, oppo- site the postoffice, and get one of our pamphlets. It will prove to you the curabllity of these hitherto fatal diseases. The cured are In every ward in this city. Eut here are two late reports from your | own people: James Eagur writes from the National Military Home, Fort Leavenworth, Kan- sas: “I have taken sixteen bottles for Di- abetes. It has cleared away the symp- toms, including the dropsy. If I was so situated that I could get just the right diet I believe I would get perfectly well again.” Mrs. Norman Carr, the wife of a Veter- an living at Union Springs, N. Y., writes that she was so {1l with Diabetes that she had not been out of doors for months, and was not able for years to go upstairs, was drinking nearly three gallons of water daily, and It was not thought she could recover. Now after six months on the Compound she is attending to her dally duties and can walk a half mile at a time without exhaustion. We invite Veterans to write to either of the above. We again announce to the world the discovery in this city of the cure for Bright's Disease and Diabetes evolved during the experiments made upon him- self by Jno. J.

The non-concern of creatures who tax their energles to meet the mere requirements and exigencies of partisan politics, but for men of affairs who hold in their hands the destinles of the greatest na- tion that ever rose and the fortunes of the most commanding race of men and women the history of this world has ever known. When I consider the geographical position of the United States with respect to Mexico, with respect to the Pacific Coast states of Latin America, with reference to the Pacific Coast provinces of China, with their teeming millions of population now dependent on Europe to pro- vide them with the necessities, and that Eu- rope, to gain the trade of the Orient, must cross two oceans while the United States will cross but one, I am convinced that the Great Master of the Universe has designed the Amer- ican Republic to eventually become the one transcendent civilization of the world, At the afternoon session two important addresses were made. W. R. Richardson, secretary of the National Good Roads Convention, spoke on ‘“Good Roads.” His speech in part was as follows: It is a matter of congratulation that this congress has given prominence to the subject of the improvemen? of the public roads. The question first recognized by this body at its fesslon In Salt Lake City in 1507, and at St. Paul last year resolutions were adopted with- out discussion, recommending modern road legislation for the several States. It remained for this session to give merited recognition to this important question and assign a place upon its programme for presentation and dis- cussion. The question of building permanent high- vays 1s of the very highest commercial im- portance and demands the active attentfon of all business men. The practice so long in use of placing the burden of road making upon the country geople is unjust and inequitable, and will nefer secure improved roads. For more than @ century this system has been in vogue, and to-day less than one per cent of the common road mileage is macadamized or surfaced, providing a durable road for all sea- #ons of the year. GOOD ROADS PROMOTE TRADE. The public road is the most common of all interests; it is promotive of trade and com- merce, the adjuster of freight tariffs, the ‘‘ai. ways on time,’’ ready, open, way for all the peaple. It leads to the church, the school, the library, the town, the market, the mill, the store, the place of amusement, and the social gathering. It places the farmer in touch with the events of the world through the rural mail delivery, with the dally paper, market reports, latest periodicals and magazines containing the best current thought of the hour, It equalizes trade for the merchant and insures a steady market for the farmer. There is almost universal agreement as to the many advantages, and the need of good roads—the serious problem is, “‘How to get ADV EETISEHENTS.

W the average business man has prevented him from giving active thought to the subject, with a determination to solve it. Time and experi- ence has demonstrated that the present sysem 1s wasteful and wholly vold of beneficial re- sults. Our commercial interests require that every business man give support to the move- ment for durable roads by co-operating the municipal and public interest, together with the Boards of Trade, Chamber of Commerce, manufacturing associations, transportation and other business organizations with the agri- cuitural and kindred interests for the estab- lishment and maintenance of a comprehensive system of public road improvement in their re- spective States and countles. It has been argued with the persuasiveness of a Paul that the Natlonal Government should lend its aid to the construction of public high- ways. 1f the Government can expend vast appropriations’ for the improvement of rivers and harbors, lend its aid to bulld rail- roads which are but another class of pubiic highways, i it can expend millions of dollars in the Philippines and Porto Rico, and -the moneys of the Cubans in the construction of wagon roads, if it can deliver the malils, sig- nal the weather, modernize farming, foster and encourage manufacturing by tariffs, and ald and promote trade and transportation in diverse other ways, what substantial reason is there for not giving aid to the building of roads and highwhys, the most common and umul of all interests it can conserve? This e of the subject is worthy of your inves- Tigation and If it has your approval you should enlist the active support of your Senators and Representatives from your respective States for the principles of the Brownlow blll, which will recefve spectal consideration during the next session of the National Congress. IMMIGRATION PROBLEM. Thomas Richardson took for his sub- ject, “Immigration and Its Distribution,” speaking in part as follows: The question of immigration into the United States is one which has gradually been be- coming more acute during the past decade, and_which will continue to augment in im- portance and significance as the time pro- Eresses. From the time when the pilgrims were forced from their early abiding places by the tyranny of fliiberal and often despotic oppres- sion, and landed upon the then inhospitable shores of New England, the old world has been contributing in an ever increasing ratio to the population of this country. Day by day, month by month, and year by year, the sail® ing ships and the steamers have been increas- ing their accomodations and efficlency in transit to take care of the incoming throngs of men, women and children, seeking pros- perity and habitation in the new ‘“Golconda,” and paving the way in turn for the movement of_their relatives, friends and acquaintances. While, of course, a very large proportion of the immigration which has yearly been coming into this country through the Atlantic and Gulf ports has been of a benigh character, it is unfortunately the fact that our possessions have been made the ‘‘dumping ground” of nd the transportation of undesirable aid, not because in the upbuild- . but rather through & desire to rid the countries and pravinces of the old world of a class which contributed but to the evil and villainy of the countries out of which they were sent. Fortunately, the United States with Its mag- nificent domain and possibilities for amaigs- mation has been but little hurt through the causes mentioned. Be the newcomer what he may, his nativity, hablts, speech and thought are obliterated forever in'the second and third generation, and even the traditions of early habitation are absorbed by the free atmosphere of the new home, and thus in less than half a century there is generated a purely Ameri- can type from which has been removed the ills_and attributes which _characterized the immigrant himself when first landed upon American sofl. DUMPING GROUND OF EUROPE. I am sure no one can blame the oppressed and poor of Europe for seeking harbor in this country, Yet the fact that we are the “‘dump- ing ground” of Eurcpe is a fact that has reached such gigantic proportions as to de- mand, without any further delay, the urgent attention of the United States authorities in order to prevent a possible contamination of our soctal structure, and to prevent also the passing of our municipal governments into the control of people whose inherent desires have been fostered by conditions existing elsewhers llld ‘which should have no place In this country ours, ln m’ opinicn the Trans-Mississippl Commer. ehould adopt some resolution lay- Inx = upon the necessity for a much more acute restriction in the matter of forelgn im- migration. wm. certain restrictions at pres- ent prevail, not 2 per'cent of the aliens for ad- mittance at various sea ports are returned to their home country because of a fallure to come within the standard of the United Government. These standards are too low and should be altered or amended so as to taks into consideration elements not now included in the custom-house examination. I believe the time is ripe when the United States Government should be forced by its rep- resentatlves into establishing a rigid investi- gation into the character and possessions of every immigrant who comes into this country, and ‘unless this be done we can expect to wit- ness an accumulation of trouble and our great centers of population the scene of turmoil and strife, in which America and American will of necessity be made to suffer. Consideration of the report of the com- mittee on the advisability of merging the Trans-Mississippi Congress with the Na- tional Irrigation Congress was then tak- en up and discussed at some length. A fleet of launches took the members of the congress on an excursion along the shores of Lake Washington this after- noon. FIFTY COLORADO PEOPLE POISONED BY ICECREAM Analysis by Health Officer Shows That Embalming Fluid Was Used as Preservative. COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo., Aug. 18.— More than fifty persons, the majority of whom are tourists, in this city and Manl- tou, have been potsoned by eating ice- cream made by local dealers from a con- signment of cream received on Sunday morning from one of the largest cream- eries and dairies in the State situated near Denver. Analysis by the health offi- cers of Colorado Springs reveals the fact that the cream was charged with for- maldehyde, better known as embalming fluid, to keep it from souring. No deaths have resulted, although several cases are critical. The name of the company supplying the cream has not been made public. Health Officer Hanford of this city states that arrests will be made at once. The case promises to be sensational. —_———— High Tax Rate Fixed in Los Angeles.
