Mr.. NEWLANDS PRAISES
PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT
Admires His Sincerity, But Believes Re-
publican Party Differs With Him
on Trust Question.

Praise from Democratic sources is
something more than President Roose-
veit could reasonably expect, but Rep
resentative Newlands of Nevada. in a
private letter received here yesterday
speaks in the highest terms OF the
President. and also pleads for Demo-
cratic harmony.
81 regard Mr. Roosevelt as pre-emi-
nent in the Republican party for sin
cerity. earnestness. and courage" he
says, adding: And outside of the radi-
cal questions OF party differences, Dem
ocrats must concede that President
Roosevelt has conducted himself well.
and that he is an American of whom
every American should feel proud
Mr.. Newlands, however, believes that
the Republican party and the President
are not in unison on the subject of
trusts. He says that Mr. Roosevelt.
while Governor OF New York. sought 10
bring the great wealth OF tina: State into
some reasonable degree of contribution
to the State expenses. and that conse-
quently the New York Republicans
forced Mr.. Roosevelt into the Vice Pres
idency to get rid of a reform governor
During 1896 and 1900 Mr. Newlands
adds. in plea for Democratic harmony,
the Democratic party was passing
through an acute crisis. It was en-
deavoring to throw off the control Of the
men who were really more In sympathy
with Republican than Democratic poll
oies. and who were disposed to favor
lawless wealth, rather than to protect
iaw-abiding wealth and the honest en-
deavor of the masses to secure pros
perity and happiness.
Il believe that what we require is
harmony Of sentiment in the party
rather than the apparent harmony that
is produced by placating those who dii-
Ter with us in our views and thus at
tempting TO secure both. Nothing can
be accomplished by endeavoring to Sc
cure the support of these who really
prefer Republican policies to our own"
