PRESIDENTS CHARACTERISTICS.

An interesting development in the Pres
dents character is the growth OF his
political aCumen and tactfulness. Yet
there are instances in which he seems 70
lack that quality. President Roosevelt
displays tact most strikinGly now in his
determination not to urge upon Congress
more than it can he expected to do. He
VIII make some interesting suggestions
to Congress in his annual message, but
will not ask more than it is apt to give
him
That means that there will be little OPP
portunity for his enemies to declare that
he was turned down by Congress On
the contrary he entertained the crews OF
the naval yachts Sylph and MayhOwer.
among whom are several negroes. on the
night before the late election. 1t would
seem as If he would have appreciated that
such an entertainment. Notwithstanding
the fact that he could not entertain these
sailormen without inviting them all.
white and black, on the eve OF the eleC-
ton would excite those who dislike lbs
attitude on the negro question
Ths entertainment, which was not in
any sense n dinner but a stag reception
with buffet lunch. might have adj
vscdly been postponed until the night
after election. But such a postporcmeut
would not have been characteristic Of
President Roosevelt He is too strIeht-
forward for even such slightly deceptive

il ought to be an easy matter for Presi-
dent Roosevelt. to be given the necessary
authority to deal with the government of
the new state of Panama, particularly as
the democrats in view of the charge OF
insincerity contained in the canal plank
adopted at Kansas City will hardly ven
ture to oppose n measure to ensure the
construction of the isthmian canal.
1nasmuch as our government by the
treaty of 1916 assumed the obligation to
protect traffic across the isthmus our
anti-imperialstic friends would hardly
hold it to be the duty of president Roose-
welt to allow the Coombans to tear I'm
the Panama railroad track and destroy
the railroad property and to put the
property interests as well as the lives of
American residents at the mercy of the
Colombians, and yet they are finding n
deal of fault with him apparently be-
cause he did not violate our treaty OBJ
legations by withdrawing our Influences
from the territory and allowing any
marauding force to work its own sweet
or bitter will upon both property and
population. Some of tho foreign govern
ments have already expressed their in
tcntioE to send ships of war to Panama
waters to look out for their interests. al
though they have tactly acknowledged
that the United States could be relied
upon to protect their subjects. yet the
administration. which is under treaty
obligation to send a force to the scene
Of trouble. is blamed by the anti-im-
perialists for so acting. When they have
time to collect their wits, and the demo-
cratic platform is studied together with
the acts of Congress. these little Ameri-
cans will see that az usual they have
put their foot in it,

OPPOSITION TO ROOSEVELT.

1t cannot be denied that there was, and
Is su.nc dissatisfaction with President
Roosevelt among republicans II would
be- astonishing if theSe were not. No man
can please everybody. His attitude on
the trust question irritated some New
y ork iinanclers. They resented his indie
peudence of thought and action. a few
men IN the Senate and House have been
displeased because the President would
not follow their advice. Many southern
republicans whose organizations the
President would not recognize are dis
grunticd, There is scattered opposition
elsewhere
IN other circumstances these disgruntled
elements might have been combined
against the President Senator Hanna
would have been their can .idatc. but they
could not secure his consent. Roosevelt 3
administration, his personality. indepenl-
ence, honesty and frankncss caught the
country. 1t was found impossible to op-
rose the wishes of the great ma jorltv
of the republicans, so opposition died out
Recently the names of Senators Spooner
and Cullom, and even that of Secretary
Hay nave been used in connection with a
reported revival of the opposition to
Roosevelt But this "revlval" has been
merely loose talk and there Will be no
opposition.
1t Is apparent that Roosevelt cannot
be defeated for the nomination. Any at
tempt to defeat him would hurt the Re
publican party, Its success would mean
certain defeat a the polls, because the
democrats would charge that Roosevelt
defeat for the nomination was due TO the
trusts anger and the man who obtained
the nomination would be branded as
trust candidate.

ROOSEVELT AND HANNA.

Nothing could better illustrate the
friendly relations that exist between the
President and Senator Hanna than the
formers desire that Senator Hanna shall
manage the 1904 campaign. Hanna may
decline because he Is not we'll man, but
he will certainly have the opportunity to
manage third presidential campaign.
The very tender OF the Chlirmanship
will be compliment gratifying to the
Ohio senator and to every friend OF
Mckinley. 1t will be tribute to Mr..
Nick inley's closest personal and political
friend and also a promise of the contin-
uation of the Mckinley policy in the sec
ond Roosevelt administration
The only contest possible IN the next
republican national convention may be
over the vice-presidency The framing
of the platform will be easy--an outlin-
ing and Endorsement Of the President S
policy. The vice-presidency may be set
tied before the convention. In fact, there

hours; of the toddling infant. A thrill
of Joy overfows the weary mothers
heart when she realizes what she is to
the household. Though her hand may
be roughened and hardened by toll,
there is no touch so soothing and cool

a broken heart az she can She shares
alike the Joys and SORROWS of the house

are always sacred.
