WASHINGTON LETTER

Aug. 15.-It is the concensus of
opinion among the leaders of the
democratic party here, that the para
mount issue in this campaign is the
personality and the record of Theodore
Roosevelt. He ia IT. He is the
whole cheese he dominates the
republican party and bestrides it like
a colossus. Let US see if the record he
has made will bear out the assertion
More absolutely than any Of his
predecessors in Office ever did, he pro-
cured his own nomination. He die
tated the platform. He edited the
nomination speeches. He appointed
the campaign manager. He moved his
Cabinet officers like pawns to meet
the exigencies of his game Of politics.
By an act of Executive usupartion be
added many thousands OF pensioners
to a roll already containing a million
names, in order to make votes for
himself-the first open use ever made
Of the National Treasury as party q
campaign chest.
He has glorified war and threatened
the future peace of the country by
proposing a bullying overlordship of
the other countries in this hemisphere
and Offering to constitute the United
States the Constab le aid Collector for
Europe in the rotten and irresponsi-
bic states Of Central and South
America.
He has, by his recommendations to
Congress and his signature to its OK
travagances, increased the national
expenditures during his term to more
than 50, 500, 600. 000-an excess Of
$211, 600, 900 over the expenditures dur
ing President McKinley's term
(which include the expenses of the
war with SPAIN. and exceeding the
cost of President Cleveland's second
term By $3.50, 900, 900.
He and the Congress Of his party
have converted surplus of $50, 600, 900
in 1900 into a deficit of more than
SAC, 200, 900 for the fiscal year just
closed.
This extravaQance ia encouraged,
and in fact made Inevitable by the
high tariff and the policies Of war
and imp rislism of which he is the
most strenuous champion. The greater
the revenue from customs the greater
the temptation for lavish expendi-
lures The more colonies and Deepen
denotes we have the greater the need
Of more warships, more Notifications.
more coaling stations, more soldiers.
Every high protectionist is lingo,
and every lingo high protectionist.
These cardinal features Of the republic
can policy are interrelated and inter-
dependent. They stand to each other in
relation of cause and effect.
In view of this surprising record of
axtravagance, it Is perhaps not
STRANGE. but will be regarded by the
taxpayers az significant, that the
words ECONOMY :retrenchment"
and reform" once the rule of the
nation and the shibbole:h Of states.

He says in his speech of acceptance
that prosperity has come at home,".

workingmen who have great re, s''n to
