stage play of national reform? His
virtual removal of Pension Commits
sioner Evans and his appointment of
Spokesman and C~arpetbagger Ret
GARRISON to one of the most impor-
tant New York offices partially an
swer the question.
His numerous other removals and
appointments have the same sinister
significance. He is working for the
nomination in 1904 and is using the
spoils appointments of his Office to
accomplish that end. But he is not
an adept in spoils practice. He is an
impulsive %blunderer. At every spoils
appointment his reform promises
and pretensions are thrown up at
him.

these objects have shocked the best
sentiments of the American people,

The parting of the ways between
President Roosevelt and his party in
congress and in the country is not
very distant. He is reaching it in a
shorter time than it was reached by
any other vice president called to the
presidency. He is censured by the
leading republican newspapers.
We may be sure that the phrase
"his accidency' will soon be applied
to him as it was to Tyler, johnson

SIX MONTHS OF ROOSEVELT.
The Strenuous Policy of the Repub-
lican Chief IL Getting His
Party Into Trouble.

President Roosevelt has been in Of
flee a little than six months.
He is the fifth vice president who
came into the Office of president I'M
der the constitution by the death of
the president regularly elected.
John Tyler succeeded President
William Henry Harrison, Willard Fill
more succeeded President Zachary
Taylor, Andrew johnson succeeded
President Abraham Lincoln, Chester
A. Arthur succeeded President James
A. Garfield and Theodore Roosevelt
succeeded President William McKin-
ley. 1t is a grewsome record, says
the Chicago Chronicle.
From present indications Mr..
Roosevelt will experience as stormy
a time in the presidency as that of
any other vice president who sue
ceeded to the presidential office. He
is on the verge of a quarrel with the
most influential members of the re
publican national committee.
He is always attempting to force

congress with the same vigor which
ANDY" Johnson displayed in his at
tempts to enforce his reconstruction
policy in opposition to the recon
struction policy of the republican
congressional majority. Other vice
presidents who became presidents

tablish personal policies different
from the general policies of their
predecessors and of their party.

ties of character fitting him to en-

BEEF TRUST AND POLITICS.
Against an Igiquity eff Its
Own Fostering.

Republican attorney generals at
Washington and Albany have begun
proceedings against the beef COM
bine under the antitrust laws.
This is a recognition by the repre-
sentatives of the party in power that
"a meatless dinner pair' would be a
fatal campaign slogan, and that it
cannot afford to stand for a non-en-
forcement of the law against mo-
nopolies, says the New York World.
So much has persistent publicity,
the greatest moral force in tie uni
verse, done toward checking this
most nefarious conspiracy to monop-
ollie and enhance to eXtortionate
prices the whole meat supply of the
country.
Moved by a similar impulse, the
democrats in congress have united
solidly in favor of the repeal of the
duties on cattle and meat.
They accept and act upon the
Worlds suggestion that the obvious
and natural remedy for a scarcity of
meat, whether actual OF artificial, is
to increase the supply" And one
way Of increasing the supply is to
take down the tariff bars that now
enhance the cost of beef cattle 27a
per cent. and the cost of fresh meat
two cents n pound.
In taking this position the demo-
Gratis are not only true to the tradi-
tional principles of their party,
which are opposed to all tariffs for
monopoly only, but they put them
selves On record in favor of a meas
ure of immediate and lasting relief.

WASHINGTON. January 1.-THE

largely to the consideration of the re-
