Extremely Safe"

Under date of Washington, June
IA, the New York World corre-
spondent says: "George j. Gould
took luncheon at the White house
to-day. He was the only guest
and after luncheon the president
talked with him for an hour about
the political situationyand his de-
sire to secure, the active support,
and especially the campaign con-
tributions, of the financial interests
of the country"
The World correspondent adds:
"Mr. Gould is the fifth big fnan-
cier who has been entertained at
the White house, with much Sc
crecy, in recent weeks. The 9TH
ers were James Stillman, president
of the National City bank of New
York; A. j. Cassatt, president of
the Pennsylvania railroad; j. Pier
pont Morgan and Geoge w. Per-
kins, one of Mr.. Morgan's part
ners. They came separately and
in every case the most strenuous
efforts were made to keep the visit
secret. Apparently, the president
feared it would injure him with the
masses to have it known that trust
magnates were being sommoned to
the White house."
We are further told that "several
other men in the financial world
will answer presidential summons
before Mr.. Roosevelt goes to Oys-
ter Bay and that Mr.. Roosevelt
twill do his best to assure all of
them that he is 'safe.'"
Mr.. Roosevelt has not a very
large task before him. He has
done nothing te persuade the trust
magnets that he is "unsafe," from
the magnates' view. He has failed
to enforce the criminal law against
the trusts; and the futility of civil
proceedings has been demonstrate
ed, particularly in the case of the
beef trust. Since the injunction
was issued againt the trust it has
been more oppressive than ever.
The prices to the consummer have
increased, while the prices which
the trust pays to the cattle raiser
have been generally decreased.
The testimony of the coal barons
delivered before the insterstate
commerce commission not only
justities, but requires criminal pro-
ceedings; and in spite of the fact
that the coal barons have admit
ted that they are in a conspiracy
against the very lives of the peo-
pie the Roosevelt administrator
shows no disposition whatever to
proceed against them in an effec-
tive way.
Long ago Mr.. Roosevelt's attor-
ney general announced that on the
trust question the administration
did not intend to 'trun amuck," land
newspaper readers know that when
H. G. Frick, steel trust magnate,

be United States senator from

given by Mr.. Roosevelt to the great

These affairs are not necessary,

"IMPRoVIsING CONVICTIONS"

"IMPROVISING CONVICTIONS"
at is doubtful if they (the Demo
crats) venture resolutely to press a
single issue. AS soon as they raise
one they shrink from it and seek to
explain it away. Such an attitude S
the probable inevitable result of the
effort to improvise convictions
Roosevelt.
Mr.. Bryan suggests that Mr.. Roose-
welt ought TO be an authority upon
"improvising convictions as he has
had so much experience in that line.
When he was vice president, Mr..
Roosevelt had the conviction that
trusts must be suppressed. He said
we shall find it necessary in the
future to shackle cunning as in the
past we have shackled force" But
as President he has never underta-
ken TO enforce the criminal clause OF
the Sherman act, nor has he attemp-
ted to wage a serious campaign ~.

anthracite coal strike when the
Roosevelt money interests were PIT
in jeopardy by Mr.. Baer.
AS a private citizen Roosevelt was
a star champion of civil service re-
form. AS President he has outdone
in partisan appointments and changes
in Office the most violent spokesman.

net officer, says: I'VE can not come
down from President McKinley's po-
sition too rapidly. That would he un-
kind to his memory and impolitic.
But we can come down and we will,
and by the end of the F~ifty-seventh
congress, we will be just where we
started. with no reciprocity of any
consequence and with all our pro-
lection"
Just a few years g Mr.. Roose-
welt was a member of a free trade
club. Today he is a radical protec-
zionist. In his books he says, pro
lection is vicious in theory and harm
full in practice" but now he is clam
oring for more protection. In all his
books he protests against the colo
NAL system. as President he has
done all in his power to fasuen it
on this country. In his work on
Benton, Mr.. Roosevelt has this to
say of the theory of manifest des-
tiny" Reduced to its simplest form
our manifest destiny is to swallow up
the land of all adjoining nations who
were too weak to withstand us; a
theory that forewith obtained inn
mense popularity among all states
men of easy International morality"
Such was the author Roosevelt's
opinion, but as President he wishes
to gobble up all of Canada and the
South American republics.
With such a record down in black
and white, written for the most part
by himself, how can he talk of "im-
promising convictions" Compared to
him the Democratic party has been
as constant as the Northern sta,
while the stability of our chief ex-
has resembled nothing so
much as the Pickering rear light OF

five long years Japan was selecting
those men, picking them, choosing
them, trying them, getting them ready
for that fateful February day when
hell was to be let loose upon the
peaceful earth.
The Russian officers in Japan saw
the preparations and sneered. Today
