On August 27, for instance, two days before the new law went into effect, the Commission received notices of over five thousand separate tariffs which represented reductions from previous rates. It must not be supposed, however, that with the passage of these laws it will be possible to stop progress along the line of increasing the power of the National Government over the use of capital... Page 234 - I have thoroughly enjoyed myself; and now I am more glad than I can say to get home, to be back in my own country, back among people I love. And I am ready and eager to do my part so far as I am able, in helping solve problems which must be solved, if we of this, the greatest democratic republic upon which the sun has ever shone, are to see its destinies rise to the high level of our hopes and its opportunities. Page 38 - Atlantic into one squadron, both to train them in manoeuvring together, and to have them ready to sail against either the Cuban or the Spanish coasts ; gathering the torpedo-boats into a flotilla for practice ; securing ample target exercise, so conducted as to raise the standard of our marksmanship ; gathering in the small ships from European and South American waters; settling on the number and kind of craft needed as auxiliary cruisers — every one of these points was threshed over in conversations...

It has a broad veranda and rocking chairs and a big fireplace and elk skins and wolf skins scattered about — on the brink of the Little Misssouri, right in a clump of cottonwoods ; and less than three years ago I shot a deer from the veranda. Page 39 - DURING the year preceding the outbreak of the Spanish War I was assistant secretary of the navy. While my party was in opposition, I had preached, with all the fervor and zeal I possessed, our duty to intervene in Cuba, and to take this opportunity of driving the Spaniard from the Western world.
