REMARKS OF THE PRESIDENT.

Philadelphia Ledger: The president said
at Concord: about all we have a right to
expect from the government is that 1t will
see that the cards are not stacked" A
stacked deck Of cards! Somebody is always
finding a new name for the Dingley tarin.
Baltimore American: The president said
In his address at Newport that there Is no
royal road to good government, and to
have good government we must have good
citizens. That is the solution OF one very
important question Of the day In a nutshell.
New York Tribune: One OF the best
things President Roosevelt has said in his
admirable speeches in New England is this;
Hardness Of heart is a dreadful quality,
but II is doubtful whether in the long run
il works more damage than softness OF
head" And he added: "At any rate. both
are undesirable"
Portland oregonian: II is certainly a re-
markable phenomenon to see a president
on a stumping tour cutting out a line Of
thought that has been tabooed by his party
leaders both in congress and In campaign
committees. At the same time, he Is strong
where those leaders are weak. II will be
h%umiliating II the party elects TO leave this
fair mountain Of civic Righteousness TO
batten on the moor OF corporate influence
and millions in campaign contributions.
Indianapolis Journal: II the reports that
the trust influences in Wall street are seek
ing the overthrow OF the president, or to
brighten him Into silence, are true, and the
masses so understand them, those influences
may be sure that they could devise no more
certain method 70 increase his popularity.
While there is a growing feeling that com
binations viii not be harmful II properly
conducted, there is a feeling that they must
be made responsible TO the government IN
some manner. Consequently any attitude
which they may assume showing that they
do not propose to tolerate such supervision
will result In their eurtailment.

The fear OF the coal trust magnates
that increasing the price of anthracite
may force people to become accustomed
to using cheap bituminous stun would
be interesting If not so amusing. When
has the price of anthracite ever been
reduced to head of bituminous compe-
titionl Has not the price of coal been
kept at the very highest notch at which
the supply could be worked of on the
helpless public2 If the anthracite men
are so anxious to drive u cheap btu
minous coal why not put the price down
for a while low enough to win all the
traffic that is worth having?

aford TO tolerate ceIbaoy, but with the In
crease Of wealth and comfort the burden
OF that OBLIGATION Is no longer felt. When
marriages were more frequent there was
less romanticism. perhaps, than there -
today, because when a woman was tempted
by her necessities to marry for a home she
could not AFFORD to be romantic in her
choice, but today women are larger wage
earners and not a few OF them prefer =
career and pursuits, OF their own TO mar
riage. The spectacle Of unhappy marriages
and divorces aired in the courts is not with
out some efect, and sensible men and women
have both discovered that marriage that Is
not entered into on both sides from high mo-
tiyes is sure to breed misery and moral

New Maine Shy ON Speed.

&RSSCA0
The Cramps have built a powerful battle
ship in the new Maine, but the vessel APP
pears to have failed to make the contract
speed OF eighteen knots in its recent ON
cial trial on Cape Ann. After making all
possible allowances, the ships speed aver
aged, according to report only II. 965 knots
an hour. Maine is one Of the first war
ships on which the builders can earn no
bonuses for speed In excess Of that stip-
ulated in the contract. and II may be that
the Cramps. lacking the old stimulus, made
no special effort to turn out a vessel capable
Of speeding more than eighteen knots. 1t
is claimed in its behalf that the coal used
in the oficial trial was of an inferior quail
ity. A second trial will be given the ship,
and II is possible that 1t will then be made
to go the pace called for by law. In after
years, however, 1t will seldom or never be
able to 20 eighteen knots an hour.

hands Of this nation; and this nation will
best serve itself In the administration OF
this unparalleled trust II It resists the
temptation simply to exult in such material
greatness and to be dazzled by the splendor
Of the figures we have quoted, and bears
