We observe with some amusement
that Republican journals are predicting
a carping Democratic opposition TO
anything and everything that Presi-
dent Roosevelt may propose TO Con-
gress.
That is absurd The Democratic
party is before all things patriotic. 1t
scorns TO make party advantage at the
cest Of the country. AS the late Presi-
dent Mckinley had reason to know, it
viii stand like stone wall behind an
Executive who is working for the
safety and honor of his country. In
the same way President Roosevelt will
learn before three months have passed
that his Nicaragua Canal and reciproci-
ty policies have the hearty and loyal
support Of every Democrat in the Sem
ate ana the House.
We n.e getting a little weary of the
assumption of some of our Republican
contemporaries. They have the assur-
ance to hold that Democrats are not as
hearty and soulful Americans as the
people TO whom they cater. This is all
wrcng-known TO be wrong by the very
writers who assert the contrary. The
American people are politically differ
entiated today only by questions Of
economics. Eliminate the tariff, and
its children the trusts, and it would be
difficult TO find a topic upon which
could be based any sort of a quarrel be-
tween the two parties into which the
American people are divided.
The time has gone by for our citizens
to haggle over small and provincial
matters. America has a tremendous
future, and Americans must face 1t in
unity and strength.

There are Indications in the course OF
President Roosevelt that he intends to
afford to all responsible for the policy

portunity to discuss with him such mat

both himself and others from the conse-

work of consolidating interests will
stop there. Wealth begets wealth, and
power creates power. This oombina-
tiou would control nearly one-fourth of
all the railway mileage in the country.
and there can be little room for doubt
that its holdings would be largely and
rapidly increased. IT would be in po-
sition to force smaller roads into the
combination. and 1t is not easy to see
where the process would end. The men
who are engineering the deal are East
ern finauciers, closely connected with
the great monetary interests of Wall
Street, aud II would be the aim of the
management to bring its Western in
te7csts into close and harmonious CO.
operation with those of the East. If
one-fourth of our railway system can
be united at a single step. there is ann
pie warrant for believing that the time
is not far distant when all the leading
roads of the country may be united un-
der one general management, or at
least be operated in perfect concert,
and with common end in view.

1t is not strange that our New England
