WISE AND TIMELY WORDS

In this hour of deep and terrible be-
reaVement l wish to state that It shall be
my aim TO continue absolutely without var
lance the policy of President Mckinley for
the peace and prosperity and honor of our
beloved country.
This wise and timely announcement by
President Roosevelt will allay any possible
apprehension of a change of government
policies, and establishes him at once in
public confidence. The fact that it was
voluntary announcement on his part makes
it the more significant. He was not re-
quired to say anything on the subject. but
his good sense told him that II would be a
timely statement and acceptable To the
country. 1t is the new Presidents in
augural message. 1t means, in the first
place. that President Roosevelt will con-
tinGe without variance President McKin
ley's policy in regard 20 our new insular
possessions. He has been in perfect har-
mony with President Mckinley on this
question from the beginning. and his views
are well known TO the country. While
neither an eXpansionist nor an imperialist
any more than President Mckinley was
he believes. as the latter did. in holding
and governing the possessions which came
to us by the chances OF war, and in meeting
cOurageOusly all the responsibilities that
the situation involves. In his letter accept
ing the nomination for Vice President Mr.
Roosevelt said;
As soon as the present revolt is put down
and order established IL Will be possible 10
give the Philippines a larger measure of
self-gOvernment than Jefferson gave TO
Louisiana. There Is nothing even
remotely resembling Imperialism or milf
tarism in the present policy OF expansion
The only certain way OF forcing the
Republic into career OF militarism would
DO TO abandon the Philippines 10 the ma
tives. at the same time guaranteeing a sta
bic government and defense against ont
side Interference. Properly snaa u
ing. the question T. not now whether we
shall expand-we have already expanded.
but whether we shall contract: to surrender
the philippines would be TO surrender
American territory.
These views were reiterated by Mr.
Roosevelt many times during the campaign
and since. and he has not yet changed
them. The Mckinley policy relative 10 our

WORSE THAN TREASON.
Senator MasOn's Definition Of An
archy-Many Meetings i'm Chicago.

CHICAGO, Sept. Eff the assassina-
ton of President Mckinley has taught no
other lesson, it has taught seventy million
people that anarchy is worse than treason
and must be driven forever from the
country"
These ringing words from the lips of
United States Senator William Z. Mason
caused the audience that crowded Hyde
Park Methodist Church at the memorial
services to-day to burst into storm of APP
plauSe. Senator Mason declared his belief
that Congress would enact legislation to
place about the President absolute protec-
tion against assassination A presidential
guard, he said, should be created by law,
and it should be beyond the power Of the
President TO dispense with the safeguard
thus provided.
I'VE should have better laws to guard
the life of the chief executive of the Ma
tion," said the senator Some excuse
may be found in hatred or partisan e;S-
element for the assassination OF Lincoln
and Garfield. But no such excuse exists
for this foul deed. The President was
killed by a sane man, who had learned his
lesson at the school of anarchy; who had
should be slain; who had been influenced
and melted to his deed by the nests OF
anarchy in Chicago
Senator Mason closed his remarks with a
glowing tribute TO the deceased President
as an official and as man.
The meeting at which the senator spoke
was but one of many that were held In
the city to-day. There was not a church
Catholic or Protestant. in which he was
not eulogiZed and his death depiored. The
largest memorial meeting of the day in
Chicago was at the Hamilton Club, where
addresses were made by Judge A n
ex-Representative George f. Adams and
others.

AN UNFORTUNATE STRIKE.

The Shaffer strike has ended in a compro-
mise. which is a decided backdown from
what President Shaffer and his associates
demanded. Instead of forcing all of the
mills to be unionized by accepting the scale
of the Amalgamated Association the Shat
fer leaders have apparently lost some of
the plants which were accorded them in the
first offer of the officers of the United
States Steel Corporation. The loss to both
sides has been very great but the men
who have been out of employment since
June 80 are the greatest losers. AS there
are thousands of these men who were COM
PEELED TO be idle who are not and cannot
be members of the Amalgamated Associa-
ton. loss of employment is in the nature of
an injustice. The Amalgamated men are
but a handful compared with these thou
sands who receive the wages of laborers
and are helpers to the skilled men. The
strike has tended to injure business and
industry. Building operations have been
retarded by an uncertainty as to the supply
Of material
While the strike has afforded the agitator
and the blatherskite an opportunity to
preach the heresy of classsm and to assail
capital it is cause for congratulation that
no bloody collisions have occurred. This
fact is largely due TO the intelligence and
conservatism of the members of the strik-
ing association and to the vigilance and
efficiency of the police in Pittsburg. Yet.
with all the mitigating circumstances the
influence of this strike, like all other ex-
tensive strikes. is deplorable I'm that they
cause a bitterness which will require long
time to eradicate. Moreover, il was
causeess strike. The men who struck
were receiving the highest wages ever paid
to men performing the same service. 1t is
very doubtful if the men desired to strike
but President Shaffer and his advisers be-
lieved they had the opportunity to force
the rule OF the Amalgamated Association
upon workmen in plants in which there
were no unions. Filled with that ambitious
purpose the leaders would not listen to
reason or take counsel of prudence The
result of this rashness has cost thousands
Of men the loss OF two and a half months
wages and the Amalgamated a serious loss
of prestige organization in that it has
been demonstrated that mills can be OPP
Grated by other than it's members

II anyone imagines that President Roose-
welt will proceed to displace federal Of
fcers 10 make room for friends or those
who will promise to be friends he will soon
earn that he is greatly mistaken. He
is one of the men who believes that good
service should secure an officer the pO-
sition he holds until his term of office
expires. He ewes nothing TO patronage
and he does not believe that patronage can
help man or party much as clean and
capable administration. In this connection
q may be said that hundreds, if not thou
sands. OF old soldiers hold their places by
virtue of an order which he devised and
had passed by the Civil-service Commission
IN session in this city in 1889. A large
number OF ex-soIdiers had been discharged
from postoffices. the railway mail and
slerkships by the Cleveland administra-
zion. The Roosevelt order provided for the

service examination TO fill the first vacan-
