WORLD'S-1sO4-FAlR

EXPOUNDING FIJI MONRoE
President Rooseyelfs definition of the Monroe Doc
trine as not only forbidding foreign acquisition OF
territory in the Western Hemisphere, but the acQuisl-
ton. as well. OF a control which would in effect be
equal 20 territorial ACKNOWLEDGEMENT, will doubtless
cause renewed assaults on the American utterance in
question.
The impotence and resentment with which the
lsnd-hungry European Powers contemplate the Mon
roe Doctrine is not likely to be diminished by Nj
Roosevelts Chicago speech. Il will be seen that
American insistence upon q European policy Of non-
Interference in the affairs Of this half Of the world is
resolute and that it gains strength with the passing
Of years. President Roosevelt correctly voices AmerL
can public sentiment in this matter.
As the President himself pointed out. 1t was this
same spirit which animated the Government when II
insist that the building of a great Isthmian canal
should be an exclusively American undertaking and
that the canal should be under American control
Much Of the opposition to this enterprise and many
OF the difficulties encountered thus far have been due
to European hostility. The Powers recognize the
great tactical Importance of the proposed Panama
Canal, and at least one or two of the European Gov
ernmeHts bitterly resent the thought Of American con-
troll but they are helpless to prevent such things IN,
less, perhaps. by n resort to arms. And for this they
are not yet ready. \
aItamay be taken for granted that President Roose-
welt deliberately chose the, Monroe Doctrine as his
theme at the outset of his Western tour because he
believes that a peculiar necessity exists at the present
time for a full American understanding of the cor
rect interpretation of that Doctrine. Also, withou,
question. the President has special reason TO realize
that the American attitude on this issue should be
distinctly impressed upon the European mind. He
wss speaking to the people Of two Hemispheres when
he so carefully e1pounded the meaning Of the Monroe
Doctrine in his Chicago address last Thursday night.

Professor Johu F-ke used the immortal life
where God dwells as the explanation Of this
slowly developing instinct that points to
that life.

he NE wITH A POET

President Roosevelt has now begun a Western tour
of exceptional Importance, during the course Of which
he will make many speeches, and II is announced from
Washington that his throat Is in the best possible
condition" -,
Under ordinary circumstances this news would be
somewhat terrifying TO the average citizen OF quiet
disposition who prefers that the strenuous conflict Of
. presidential campaign be restricted within the time
limits OF the year in which the national elections take
place, but this does not apply TO Mr.. Roosevelts trans
continental jaunt. The reasons why 1t does not are
plain to the thoughtful mind.
In the first place the President is to deliver n
speech in st. Louis, on the occasion of the dedieatery
ceremonies of the Worlds Fair of 1904. which must
necessarily be of International interest. In the sec.
n.dcant and deserving of attention, because he is that
potent combination. a clear thinker and a man Of
resofute action. and because he is an excellent type OF
the forceful American who is recognized by the out
side world az the most compelling factor in modern
civilization. In the third place. the President is &C
eompaBied by a peet-naturalist of great phnosophic
serenity. whose tranquil soul cannot but influence for
good the stormy Roosevelt psychological equipment.
In the presence of John Burroughs. indeed. as a
member of Mr.. ReOseyelt's party during this Western
visit there Is q promise Of such singular benefepnce
as TO Justify the liyeliest delight In American bosoms
Surely we are becoming a CENTER and more aesthetic
people. For the first time in all our history a poer
is invited TO be the star guest OF a President on an
occasion Of unmistakable political Importance. The
logical deduction is that the American President who
does this thing confesses to the human need of the
uplifting influence of the higher thought amid the
huriy-buriy OF ambitions battle. No other American

When Miss Alice Roosevelt sailed from San Juan.

cruiser Panther. at anchor in the harbor. played its
sweetest in her honor. Let us hope that the German
American controversy reused by the Dewey interview
may die away under the influence of these friendly

swayed than to listen for the wild blast Of war OF

WANT Ed TO REDUCE
QUEENS INCOME
McCANDLEss THOUGHT IT WAS
TOO MUCH WHEN GOVERNOR
RECEIVED ONLY $1,000.

For a few minutes yesterday morning
1t looked as if the Senate would reduce
Liliuokalani's permanent settlement for
the six months period of the present
year. 1t was Senator McCandless who
wanted the appropriation cut down.
The salary appropriation measure
was up for consideration on third read
ing. Senator McCandless moved that
the item of $3.50 for the Ex-Queen for
the six months, be reconsidered. This
motion prevailed and then he moved
that the item be cut from $3.50 to $4,000
He said that it was unjust to the gov
ernor to pay her a higher salary than
the governor received. The governor
got only $1,000 a year and the queen
ought not to receive any more.
The vote on this motion to reduce was
as follows: ayes McCandless, Achi,
Dickey, Baldwin, and Paris; noes c..
Brown, Crabbe, j. T. Brown, Kaohi,
Kaiue, Kalauokalani and Nakapaahu.
The item was passed as in the bill
Previous to this motion, an attempt
as made by Senators Achi ana Nc
Candless to have a general decapitation
of bookkeepers in the various depart
ments. The senators thought that the
auditor should do the bookkeeping. A
motion was made to refer the salary
appropriation measure to a special
committee. Senators Baldwin and
Brown opposed the measure. The mo-
ton was defeated and the consideration
of the bill was resumed.
on motion of Senator c. Brown the
item of 5000 for a statistician for the
office of the Secretary of the Territory
and the item of 500 for expenses of in
stalling that department, were stricken
out because the Governor had not in
cluded them in his message on the sub
iect of salaries.
Several attempts We're made to raise
the salaries of some of the second class
district magistrates on the other ISL
ands, but all failed. An adjournment
was taken until the afternoon, while
the bill was be considered.
