The Board of Supervisors of Tazewell
county met on Tuesday, the 10th inst,
and elected j. Ed Peery President of the
Board, to fill the vancancy caused by the
death Of the late BIZ. Fuller. The county |
levy was laid for l9C2 as follows: sixty
cents for county expenses, ten cents road
tax and ten cents school tax. The tax for
county purposes is ten cents more on the
hundred than it was in 1901. One
third of the county tax is for support of
the poor, and the advance of ten cents
was occasioned by the smallpox which
prevailed in several sections of the county
ast year, and which caused deficit in
he county fund. The Board thought 1t best
% provide against future deficiency, and
We commend its sound judgment in that
particular.

If the London paper will analyze the
foregoing definition of the doctrine care
fully it will see that it pledges the United
States to the protection of the territorial
integrity of Canada and the British West
Indies as much as it does to that of Vene-
zuela. Senator Chauncey NJ. Depew said
since his return from Europe. a few days
ago:
1t is amusing to note the different way in
which the Monroe doctrine is viewed in
England and on the continent. Inc con-
tnentals assert that this can never De

a good thing for the following reasons: If

not probability, is ever entered upon
England knows she need have no fear about
her Canadian possessions and her west
Indian colonies. as the United States must
maintain the integrity of these colonies.
This will leave England all her ships and
resources for use elsewhere. England re-
CARDS II as a wise policy, while continental
Europe spurns il as an insoient arrogant
and untenable claim.
Our esteemed London contemporary
should read up little on this question and
inform itself as TO what the Monroe doc
trine really is. Meanwhile, if the British
or the Dutch government has any just
claim against Venezuela they can proceed
to enforce 1t in any other way than the
one above noted. The United States does
not protect any American State in offend
ing against international law.

Roosevelt and his party, amid the booming
of a salute from the guns of a light ar
tillery battery, were received in this city
by Mayor Leonard and members of the
city government to-day. The President was
Immediately escorted to a temporary stand
erected at the station, where he addressed
one of the largest crowds that ever gath
cred in this city. Splendid weather condi-
tions favored the event. The President
was greeted with enthusiastic cheers when
he arose to make his address. He said:
Mr. Mayor and ellow-citizens-I have

centers of this country, one of the cities of

VENEZUELA AND THE MONROE
DOCTRINE

Our esteemed British contemporary. the
London Daily Mail, seems TO have worked
itself into a state of mind over the action
Of the Venezuelan government in main

vessels. 1t says Europe cannot possibly al
low a piratical and predatory movement of
this kind 10 disturb commerce. and after
inveighing against the Monroe doctrine il
concludes: America should keep its dis
orderly states in order and chastise them
when. relying on their weakness and her
protection. they offend against information

Upon this it is to be remarked. first. that
as long as Venezuela is recognized as an
independent power it has the same right as

understood the Monroe doctrine correctly
it would know that it does not stand in the
way OF any European power demanding

II would know, also. that in maintaining
the Monroe doctrine the United States does
not support any Central or South Ameri-

THE PRESIDENTS SPEECHES.

President Roosevelt is giving people some
thing to think about in the speeches he
IS making, and is taking them into his con-
fidence in a Enthusiastically frank way.
The President is not a ready or polished
speaker in the sense that Harrison and Nc
Kinley were. He does not possess their
mental versatility. their ability to turn
readily from one line of thought to another.
or their facility of expression. These gifts
are not granted to ALL and they come large
ly from long practice. President Roose-
velt's training has not been that of ora
tor. and he has not had anything like the
practice in public speaking that either of
the others had. He thinks clearly and ex-
presses himself well, but he does not pos
sess the peculiar happiness Of expression
that made the others named above excep-
tional President Roosevelt is far from be-
ing a poor speaker, but he does not excel
in oratory as he does in composition
What has been said relates only to the
form of the Presidents speeches, which,
after ALL is the least important part. Their
substance confirms and emphasizes the pop
ideals and strong convictions, anxious to be
sure that he is right and to know and do
his duty by the people, and next that the
people shall know and do theirs No Pres
ident has ever talked so plainly to the peo-
pie about what constitutes good citizenship,
about the Importance of individual effort,
the impossibility of making country pros
porous a people great by mere legisIa-
ton, and the necessity of every person do
ing his duty an individual factor in the
commonwealth. The keynote Of much that
the President says is, ''Act well your part ;
there all the honor les and he makes it
plain that he has more use for the man
who achieves success or wealth by I'M
worthy means than he has for one who
shirks the duties put upon him. This is a
new line of thought for President to
adopt. 1t will give people something new
to think about, and by the frank revelation
it gives Of the Presidents own character
will still further enhance the public esti-
mate of him

tiOnal control is approved by prominent
business men connected with such organl-
cations. and his suggestion of publicity is
regarded with favor. Several large capi-
talists Of Chicago. who are officers or
stockholders in various combinations. in
dorse the Presidents idea and declare their
belief that uniform supervision and control
OF corporations by the national govern
ment would be beneficial to the public and
would not be opposed by any corporation
that is doing a legitimate business. In his
speech at Boston the President emphasized
the point that government control Of trusts
and large corporations would not be revo-
lutionary. but would tend to safeguard the
rights Of all. 1t has certainly worked ad-
mirably in the case Of national banks.

DEFEATED BY DEMOCRATS.

The Democrats are continually complain
ing that Republican Congresses have failed
to legislate in a manner that will make
it possible to deal with trusts. They have
not agreed upon any measure of that kind
doubtless because the subject is involved
in grave difficulties. Those who are best
informed regarding the powers of the
federal government under the Constitution
believe that the Sherman antitrust law
is about as far as Congress can go unless
it requires all corporations doing business
in several States to publish an exhibit of
their affairs, as does the United States
Steel Corporation. When Mr.. Olney was
attorney general he declared that the
Sherman law was inadequate to deal with
trusts; he gave no intimation as to its
amendment, but left the public to assume
that the control of such corporations was
a function OF the State government The
House of the last Congress passed an anti
trust bill which was declared not only to
be crude, but unconstitutional. That there
manner to protect the public the House of
the last Congress, it should be remem-
bered proposed to so amend the Con-
stitution that the regulation of extensive
corporations should be under federal super
vision. The proposed amendment reads
Section An powers conferred by this
article shall extend TO the several States
the Territories. the District Of Columbia
and all territories under the sovereignty
and subject to the jurisdiction of the
United States.
Section 2-Congress shall have power to
define, regulate, prohibit or dissolve trusts
monopolies and combinations whether ex-
listing in the form of corporation or other
wise. The several States may continue toex-
ercise such power in any manner not in
conflict with the laws of the United States
Section 3-Congress shall have power to
enforce the provisions OF this article by
appropriate legislation.

The President MOraIizes at Dover on
National Life and Character

DOVER, n. H, Aug. 26.-For the first
time in the history of Dover, which was
founded in 1923, a President of the United
States was here to-day. Thousands Joined
in the welcome to President Roosevelt On
the arrival of the presidential party they
were received by Mayor A. G. Whittemore
and a committee Under an escort of

said:
Mr.. Mayor and You, My FeIlow-citizens
Men and Women of New HAMPSHIRE

old thirteen colonies from which sprang'
the United States, and both in your past
and your present you epitomize much of
the national life We are, all of US, apt TO
get TO talking and thinking of the Nation
and the State as distractions. If we will
think of ourselves and our neighbors how
we get along and how they get along, we
will have a pretty fair idea of what can
be done simply on a larger scale in the
Nation and the State. Look at your own
history here in Dover; go through the
pioneer days and from them down TO the
modern city. the product Of the great in
dustrialism of our time. We are here now.
you are here now; l am addressing you
all because of the great industrial expan-
sion symbolized by our factories, by the
railroad. the telegraph, and all of their
attendants. We would not be here if il
was not for them; but their exercise has
caused great questions 10 rise in our ma
tional life. Ii is more complicated business
Mr. Mayor, TO run this city than il was 20

log cabins
with the growth in wealth and pros
perity has come an accumulation of differ
ences between man and man, which do
harm in two ways; which do harm when
they make one man arrogant. which dc
