PURE FABRIC LAW IDEA OF iRDOCK 'rejected Bill Would Amounts , of Cotton Wool in Cloth. Reveal and TAFT'S PLAN TO SAVE PARTY President Wants' Republicans to Unite and Legalize a Genuine . Tariff CommissionNext Year's Budget .Will Be Fully " " : One Billion. By GEORGE CLINTON. Washington.--It Is sald on seem ingly good authority that President iTaf t has given his sanction to a hill jfar reaching in its effect which will (compel the affixing t6 cloths which center interstate commerce of a state ment of the amount1 of cotton and of wool,' which, they contain. This meas jure is called here in Washington- a Kexttle.pure food bill." .. The framer lof the measure, Victor Murdock of insas. says that no reason exists rhy the consumer should not know low much wool and how much cotton le is getting in his clothes just as he lows under the pure : food law how touch adulteration he is getting. . , An effort is being made to get the (two , Republican factions in congress jto pass a measure of this kind. It is expected that there will be a good ideal of opposition and it may be that the "pure fabric law" will hare as long a Journey ' to passage as that which the pure food law took before it arrived at its station on the statute i books. ? :" :. ?-. . Taft's .Tariff Commission Plan. y ' As a fixed . daily ' : task President fTaft is laboring to bring togeth jsr the Republican factions in con gress in order that he may . secure legislation legalizing .; a genuine tariff jcomBaission. i One year ago Mr. Taft jmight have worked nights as well as jdays along the same line of endeavor ' land at the end of 24 hours he would jhave been; at the beginning, for the regulars and Insurgents .were so hos tile to. one another that attempts to patch a peace would have been met pot only sulkily, but defiantly, i This year Mr. Taft, so the men close jto him say, has some real hope that be can induce Mr. Cummins, Mr. La OFbllette, Mr. Murdock and others to kink, arms with Mr. Aldrich, Mr. Hale, plr.

' v : Natural growth is responsible In a measure for the vast increase in the expense of ; , running - Uncle . Sam's household. Twenty years ago the, navy cost us each year about $30,000, 000 ; now it costs about $140,000,000. The acquisition, of the Philippines ne cessitated an increase inv the army, and the army appropriation bill Is big ger "than ever. Naturally all depart ments have grown at a pace in keep ing with the I growth in population, and so today, much sooner than was expected, the "billion' ddllar congress" is an accomplished' fact . ' : The presidents of the United; States one after another .always have urged economy. It - made - no ; difference whether It was Cleveland, Democrat, or Harrison, or any other president.

In the : pastyear . perhaps the saving admonition has been more sharp and pointed than before, for ap parently the president with ; other American citizens", Tias - been - some what staggered by the mere sight of the figures in the. 'government's ex pense account. Taft Wants Jyt' Debts Paid. No president, however, no matter to which party he has belonged, ever has asked congress to refuse to au thorize the payment - of Uncle Sam's just debts. President Taft1 has urged economy -constantly; but like other presidents before him he this year has urged strongly that v congress . do jus tice to the persons who have valid claims against the government and who cannot get their money. , Uncle Sam has . a court of claims. The " judges- are as hard " worked as. and perhaps harder worked than, any of the other federal jurists. s They are obliged to pass judgment on the valid- ty of claims made against the' United States by private individuals. If the courtflnds tnat the claims are just. all , it can do is to pay so and to in form congress that the United States owes : Henry Nelson ; or Phillip " Stuy- vesant such and such . a t sum of money.' .Then Henry Nelson and Phil ip Stuyvesant go to congress and ask that the money which really belongs to I them shall ; be paid, and congress usually turns a ' deaf ear.' Of course claims are paid from time to time, but many a man with a . bill which the courts have O. K'd: waits; many aUong year before he gets his; money ' and then lie does not get all he deserves. for no Interest Is allowed.- - In his message o, congress this year President Taft urged the payment of the just indebtedness of Uncle Sam. He sayar this, pointedly: The' delay that occurs in the payment of ;the money due under the' claims injures the reputation"' of the government as an honest debtor, and I earnestly re commend that these claims- which come to congress - with the Judgment and approval of the court of : claims should be promptly paid." i f.
