The Presidents Safety.

In the sermon he delivered in Baltimore
yesterday Cardinal Gibbons said:
1T is a sad reflection that some fanatic
or mlscreant mas 1t In his power to take
the life Of the head Of the nation and to
throw the whole country into mourning.
1t was no doubt this thought that inspired
some writer's within the last few days to
advise that the President should hence
forth abstain from public receptions and
handshakings and that greater protection
should be given to his person
You might have him surrounded with
cohorts, defended with bayonets, and have
him followed by argus-eyed detectives. and
yet he will not be proof against the stroke
OF the assassin. Are not the crowned heads
OF Europe usually attended by military
forces, and yet how many Of them have
perished at the hand Of some criminal No,
let the President continue to move among
his people and take them by the hand. The
strongest shield Of our chief magistrate
Is the love and devotion of his fellow citi-
crimes is to inspire the rising generation
with greater reverence for the constituted
authorities and greater horror for anv
insult or injury to their person. All sedi-
tious language should be suppressed. IN
cendfary speech is too often an incentiya
to criminal acts on the part of manv tn
whom the transition from words to deeds
Is easy"
These sentiments are in full agreement
with those expressed by The Star on the
same subject last week. They are certain
to prevail. The President in the White
House Is more than an official. He Is host
there. and as such he welcomes those who
call. There are many callers, and the
great majority OF them are actuated by
the highest feelings OF respect for the coun-
try and it's leading citizen. The time the
President gives to greeting these people Is
well expended. They are gratifed, and he

Mr.. Roosevelt starts cut with some inn
patience at the unusual precautions taken
to insure his safety. For the moment how
ever. they are probably well taken. The
disquiet and excitement following the
tragedy at Buffalo have produced an un-

the men with whom he must work have
lower ideals. He must stand firmly for
what he believes, and yet he must realize
that political action. to be effective. must
he must sacrifice somewhat of his own
opinions to those of his associates II he
ever hopes to see his desires take practical
shape.
THE prime thing that every man who
takes an interest in politics should remem-
Der is that he must act and not merely
criticise the actions Of others: 1t is not
the man who sits by his fireside reading
his evening paper and saying how bad
politics and our politicians are who
will ever do anything to save us; 1t Is the
man who goes out into the rough hurly-
burly of the caucus. the primary and po-
litical meeting, and there faces his fellows
on equal terms.
Since the day of this very happy de-
liverance, Mr. Roosevelt has served term
as Governor OF New York, and he squared
his conduct in that Office by this chart
He dealt with matters in a practical way.
But he kept his hands clean. He con-
ferred in all emergencies with the practi-
cal politicians. But he did not surrender
to anybody. He listened to all sides, and
then formed his own judgment. He did
not assume that the professional reformer
was altogether wise. or the professional
politician altogether bad. His administra-
ton was successful. The people were Wei
served. Had he not been called to higher
duties he undoubtedly would have been re-
elected governor.
AS President Of the United States Mr..
Roosevelt will have more occasion than
ever to consider the practical side of pol
itics. Although he is President Of all the
people, he is yet charged with the duty of
forwarding his partys policies; and in or
der to do that he must keep In touch with
his party's sentiments. He must confer
with its leaders both in Congress and out
with those who have ideals and those who
have none-and strike a workable balance
for the public good. A President without
party behind him may write some sound
ing state papers, and impress most pro-
foundly a small squad of personal ad-
mirers, but he does not demonstrate real
leadership, nor give to the people that
service to which they are entitled
Mr.. <Roosevelt's ideals are probably as
high as ever they were, and he will secure
all the more for himself and the country
by keeping them so. 1t is the man of ac-
tion and concession that counts and not
the grumpy dreamer with sharp pen or
q sharp tongue

Mr.. Roosevelt ON Practical po,,.,..

Mr. noOseyeIt ON Practical POlftfcs
Mr. Roosevelt entered politics soon after
leaving college. He was described at the
time as reformer, and his appearance in
the field ELECTED many compliments. His
youth, his ability, and his influential social
position. coupled with his energy and en-
thusiasm caused many OF his acauaint-
ances to han him as the coming leader Of
forces which. somehow. although always
moving. had never won battle. II was
not long. however. until he began to Illus
trate. both by his speeches and perform
ances. that. with him. the reformer was
not the mere snarler or the dreamer but
a man Of action and practical ideas; and
soon afterwards he was sharply criticised
In quarters where before he had been
highly praised. 1t was In reply to this
CRITICISM that in one Of his political papers
he said:
Practical politics must not be construed
to mean dirty politics In the long run the
politics Of fraud and treachery and foul
ness are impractical politics. and the most
practical Of all politicians Is the politician
Who Is clean and decent and upright But
man who goes into the actual battles of
the political world must prepare himself
much as he would for the struggle In any
other branch Of our life He must be pre-
pared to meet men of far lower ideals than
his own, and to face things, not as he
would wish them, but as they are. He must
not lose his own high ideal. and yet he
must face the fact that the majority of

The Nineteenth of September.
from the Philadelphia Inquirer.

The nineteenth Of September!
What day of fate! or, rather. what q
day for history-making!
On the nineteenth of September, 1881
President Garfield died, having been shot
by the assassin Guiteau some months
previously.
On the nineteenth Of September, 1901
President Mckinley was buried, hayine
fallen victim to the assassin CzoIgosz.
On the nineteenth of September there
should have been registered, and there
doubtless was, VOW on the part OF the
American people that hereafter this land
of the free shall not be used as an asylum
for anarchists and assassins
