FEATURES OF THE JOURNEY WHICH HAS
NEVER BEEN EQUAIED BY A CHIEF EXECUTIVE

RESIDENT ROOSEVELT, on his present extraor-
binary tour, will travel two months cover almost
$4,000 miles, stop 1856 places and make something
like go speeches. In zgZag line he is crossing the
whole breadth of the country and will jump from the
cold and hiy regions of Montana to the scorching
plains of Arizona and New Mexico He is zealousy
guarded while this tour is in progress If he walks
rides drives, if he makes speech in public or is
being quietly dined at the most exclusive function the
eye the secret service is the alert to
detect the slightest sign of harm that by any possible
chance might to him.
The train in which President Roosevelt travels is

Extracts from President
RoOseveIt's Speech in Chicago.

We hold that our interests in this
hemisphere are greater than those of
any European power possibly can be.
and that our duty to ourselves and to
the weaker republics who are our neigh
bors requires us to see that Aoge of the
great military powers from across the
seas shall encroach upon che territory of
the American republics or acquire con-
troll thereover.
This policy. therefore, not only forbids
us to acQuiesce in such territorial ac-
QUESTION. but also causes us to object to
the requirement of a control which
would in its effect be equal to territorial
ACKNOWLEDGMENT. This is why the United
States has steadily believed that the con-
struction of the great isthmian canal
should be done by no foreign
nation, but by us.
The ever growing influence of the
United States in the western hemisphere
has exempl:6ed the firm purpose
of the United States that its growth and
influence and power shall rebound not
to the harm but TO the benefit, of cur
sister republics whose strength is less.
Our growth, therefore, is beneficial to
humankind in general
We do not intend to assume any posi-.
ton which can give just offense to our
neighbors. Our adherence to the rule OF
human right IS not merely profession.
The history - our dealings with Cuba
shows that i've reduce it to performance,

it may become such, this is not neces.
! sary as long as it remains a cardinal
feature of our foreign policy and az
long as we POSSESS both the will and the
strength to make it effective.
l believe in the Monroe doctrine with
all my heart and soul; l am convinced
that the immense majority of our fell
low countrymen so believe in it; but ]
would infinitely prefer to see us abandon
it than to see us put it forward and
buster about it. and yet fail to build up
the efficient fighting strength which in
the last resort can alone make it re-
srccted by any strong foreigf- power
whose interest it may ever happen to be
TO violate it.
Boosting and clustering are as OBJ
jectionable among nations as among in
dividuals.
But. though to boast is bad, and
causelessly to insult another worse, yet
worse than all is to be guilty of boast
ing, even without insult. and when called
to the proof to be unable to make such
Boosting good.
There is a homely old adage which
runs: Speak softly and carry a big
stick; you will go far" If the American
nation will speak softly, and yet build,

roe doctrine wiz 60 far.

The financial world has
recently had the benefit Of
a number of opinions re-
ChiCdQO.

speeding the general outlook for contin-
ued prosperity in our country. Railroad
managers. prominent merchants bankers
and other practical men. each from his
particular point of view. have sized mp
the situation. Some opinions were fa-
yorable. some inclined 20 conservatism,
a few rather discouraging
Outside the financial center there is
brilliant showing. Spring trade is ac-
tive ard many country buyers are re-
ported increasing their first orders. Iron,
steel and lumber are the industries re-
porting the greatest activity, being af-
fected by the demand for structural ma
terial now becoming more general. lm-
migration is pouring in Navigation is
practically open. The railroads continue
burdened with traffic Spring trade in
the Northwest is above the good show
ing of last year in volume.
The one great element Of doubt is the
labor situation. So far there is no more
than the usual spring trouble, but dis
affection covers wide area and the gem
era agitation for wage advances is start
ing little earlier than usual. From
anything now in sight there is not much
TO fear, and there is hope that nothing
more serious will develop.
The wheat market has been a little
frmer For the first time in months the
news from abroad was unfayorable. In
our own country the winter wheat crop
prospect is brilliant. while Argentine is
shipping heavily, almost 100000 BUSH
els going out last week. These factors
remain as great influences for price de-
preston, but light stocks in the North
west have been counter influence for
strength. and now that the European
crop news is no longer so favorable there
is a disposition TO go slower on the sell
ne side.

| N sADOl9eI week o. SOoU
MN IOlk weather has brought out
I----1 large volume of business,
many manufacturers receiving urgent re-
quests for immediate shipment. Floods
nave caused serious losses at few points
along the Mississippi and traffic was in
terrupted on railways in that vicinity,
but on the whole the freight situation is
more satisfactory than at any previous
time TINS year. Quicker transportation
has relieved the fuel pressure and the
industrial situation would be unprece-
dentedly favorable were il not for the
prevalence of labor disputes. Railway
earnings in March increased 1870 per
cent over last years and Pill per cent as
compared with 1901" The foregoing is
from the Weekly Trade Review of r. G.
Dun X Co. Ii continues:
During the moath of March prices OF
commodities, as measured by Dun's index
number, declined to sos, PCT. as compared
with SlOl,067. This decrease is only sea-
sonable, and is about the Same MS occur
red in the corresponding period last year.
Fewer interruptions from fuel scarcity
and traffic congestion have produced a
most desirable condition of activity In
all departments of the iron and steel in
d'lstry, but the structural workers strike
threatens to restrict consumption and
provides the only menacing factor.
Southern producers of pig iron supplied
the most important feature of the week.
when quotations were reduced on deliv-
cries in the second half of the year. Ore
is moving freely at Cleveland, labor trou-
bles being averted. Steel is taken freely
by implement makers railways and 9TH
er large buyers. and contracts are report
ed that run fully a year.
Textile manufacturing conditions are
unsettled by strikes, ana the future
course of prices as welt as the general
situation must depend largely upon this
factor. Throughout the cotton industry
there is a disposition TO await develop
ments. Jobbers purchase only for imme-
date requirements. Only a very light
supplementary demand is coming for
ward for mems wear woolens and wors-
teds, and most new orders are for filling
ont sample business. There is much
complaint of delayed deliveries in this
line and cancellations are again feature.
Increased frmness is recorded in the
market for footwear, particularly as to

comparatively quiet. and another trac-
tional advance is reported in Chicago

CITY NE VS..
AS SITE FOR STATUE
Aldermen Vote to Raze the Old City
Hall and Beautify the .r
~ Plot. +.
They Heartily Approve Placing
Mead,s Heroic Marble Figure
at City's Entrance. - -

In order to replace an eyesorfe with a
beauty spot the city council last even
ing voted to tear down the old city hall
and convert its triangular site at the head
Of Bridge square into a little park This
will afford an exquisite setting and an
propriate location for Larkin c. Mead s
heroic marble statue of "The Father Of
Waters which public spirited citizens
will present to the city
The old building, which has stood since
1870, was last evening ordered razed
and the city clerk was directed to adver-
tise for bids for the work, which must be
completed within ninety days. In the
meantime the donors will be having de-
signs made for the pedestal or base and
for the surrounding plot so that there shall
be no delay in placing the statue in it's
permanent place.
There were only four votes recorded
against the proposition, these coming from
Aldermen Lane. Powers. Dwyer and West
phal, who took the utilitarian view that
the old city hall, unsightly as it was,
could be made to produce some revenue.
Alderman Lane also suggested that a
more appropriate place would be on the
site of the first schoohouse in St. An
thony, which stood where the exposition
building now looms up.
Chairman McLaskey Of the special COM
mittee to which the statue matter was re-
1erred. presented a committee report
signed by ten members with only one
against. He was ably supported by AL
dermen Rand and Holmes. The vote on
the adoption Of the report was as fol-
lows:

INTO IRON ORE / FIELD
e$ r. -
Indications Are That the 500 Will
Tap Titanic Ore Region Be-
fore Long. /
It Will Depend Upon the Creation
of a Market for the
Z. y Ore. a II


1t loks from reports as tho the 500 road
was planning to tap the titanic iron Eore
fields @,of Cook county, There. is special
reason why some road should endeavor to
reach this field,7 or at least get ready to
break into it If the tests of new process
for smelling the ore into steel should
prove successful. The ore is to be found
in Cook county in vast quantities, and
tests made at st. Paul a few days ago are
said to have been very successful. Put
ting the two things together. there is good
ground for the belief that roads will begin
to work toward the ore fields very soon,
In order to be ready to haul the ore out
Tor smelter which it is proposed to
build at Duluth.
Ihe situation fits in we'll with a report
said to- have been made on the authority
OF an official Of the Canadian Pacific that
the 500 road would extend its lines from
Taylors Falls to Duluth, passing thru
Grantsburg and east of Barnum, Wis. ::
also that line would be built from Roos-
velt in Roseau county, to Duluth and from
Duluth to a connection with the Port
Arthur, Duluth & Western in the Gun
flint region.
1t is this Gunf1int connection which
would give the 500 road access to the
titanic ore fields and open up a big busi-
ness for the 500 line. ...
