AUSTRIAN PRESS COMMENT.
President Roosevelt Accused of wav-
ing a BOny Finger at Britain.

VIENNA, Aug. 2S.-President RooseveIt's
speech on Monroeism has caused widespread
attention here. The Neue Freie Presse
thinks it was directed against Great Britain
and that it sounds like an answer to the
conference of the colonial permiers. The
paper believes it will make a deep impress
sion Great Britain, which country may
find herself faced by the prospect of war
over Canada with a mighty foe, with which
the South African states cannot be COM
pared. Mr. Roosevelt" continues the pa
per. waves his bony fist against England
because the Boer war published TO the
world the poverty of Great BTitain's mill
tary forces" The paper concludes as fol-
lows: 1T must not be forgotten that Mr..
RoOsevelt's fanfare was sounded in an cleo
ton speech. If the head OF a European
state had spoken in such a manner one
would anticipate war in the near future.
But American election speeches are only
judgeable from an American standpoint"
The Neues Wiener Tageblatt says: THE
speech is a forecast of the platform for the
next campaign and is not intended as a
warning to- Europe, though it comes Just
at the right time when the European gov
ernments considering renewal of their
commercial trea ties. -

the material prosperity of our country.
Now, there is always certain to be some
evil in any great movement forward. Our
material progress has been accompanied by
certain Ills. The marvellous success which
has produced such great corporate and in

abuses have grown up in connection with
