his able and vigorous advocacy OF
whatever he believed was right as
we'll as by his most excellent perform
ance of all his duties. After every con-
hiot Roosevelt has risen stronger with
the party and the nation, regardless of
whether the issue of that conflict was
as he would have wished
There have been numerous attempts
to down Roosevelt, to check his adj
vance upward on the ladder of sue
cess. Men have not been wanting
who would gladly have knitted him
politically. From his beginning in
public life as an official of the city of
New York to the present time there
has been jealousy of him in his own
party. His nomination as vice presi
dent was a move of his enemies to
shelve him forever. But it failed be-
cause he was too big man to be
shelved. He could not be put where
he would lose his power. In this
connection the Brooklyn Eagle, a
Democratic paper, speaks as follows
"He was made vice president by
politicians against his will. He went
to the verge of protest--but stopped
there. He accepted nomination
which he sought to repel. But he
made the canvass for his party, after
he was nominated. Being President,
Mr.. Mckinley, by the usages of poll
tics, could only make an address and
write letter of acceptance. The
national spokesman became Theodore
Roosevelt, who was running for vice
president. His speeches as a candi-
date for vice president were very
many. Not one of them put his party
Oh the defensive. Nearly every one of
them put the Organized Democracy
on the defensive. The Republican
ticket was elected, and Mr.. Roosevelt,
after he had been installed as vice
president, made addresses in Ver-
mont, in Massachusetts and in Mime
Gotta before he was called on to be-
Mckinley. Addresses by the vice
Gus novelty before Mr.. Roosevelt
made them. Those which he did make
were suggestive, positive and virile.
We thought they were more radical
in parts than they should have been,
but he did not think so, and they fore
Swallowed the things which he i'm
pressed upon his own administration,
when it began. Republicanism is
now committed to those things, for
better or worse. Mr.. Roosevelt has
made his views those of his party,
and people today are talking, not
about Mr.. McKinley's administration,
but about Mr.. Roosevelt's. -
That is the kind of reform that
amounts to something By working
on the inside and not boiling when he
was defeated in his efforts he has
wrought considerable change il the
party. AS to the administration of
the government Roosevelt has fought
for honesty as no other man before
him has fought, and with results such
as no other man has been able to OBJ
tain. The post office department has
been cleaned out, the land Office as
we'll, and honesty and efficiency made
the motto Of the departments as
never before. Reform of the Roosevelt
type is good to have, and this country
needs four years more of it.

The United States is staggering
towards it's doom. Such is the gist
of an article by Prof. Goodwin Smith,
of Toronto, and formerly Of Oxford, in
the Monthly Review of London.
THE end may be delayed" he says,
but it is sure. 1t is critical hour
in the life OF the American republic,
and therefore in the life of the
world" He points to the methods
of nominating and electing President
and other officials, and considers the
party strife which Americans in
dulge in and the consequent control
of government by the democracy at
large as the most dangerous element
of American political life. 1t is very
evident that the worthy Professor is
not believer in the good sense of
the common people, or in the wisdom
of universal suffrage or popular gov
eminent. He is at liberty to have
such opinions as he pleases. Ever
since this government was founded
there have been plenty of prophets
who have foretold its impending
downfall. But instead of falling it
has grown even stronger. The Amer
lean people are not fearing the future
and have no cause for so doing.
Government of the people, by the peo-
pie, and for the people, was never on
firmer ground than it is today in this
great country.

REFORM THAT PAYS.

There are two kinds of reformers in
politics. The representative OF one
kind believes that he, individually,
knows more than the majority OF the
members of his party when the ma
jority disagrees with him on some i'm
portant question in which he had
been greatly interested. The repre-
sentative of the other class believes
in the rule of the majority, the found
alton of all democratic institutions,
and submits to the decision of the ma
jority. The first man is forever
swinging from one party to the other
or staying by neither. The second
believes that he can do the most good
by remaining with the party that, on
the whole, he considers the best and
there exerting his influence towards
those things that he believes are best
The first man is a mugwump reform
er. The second is a party reformer
President Roosevelt has been known
as a reformer, but it is as reformel
of the second class. His influence
has always been exerted for what h'
considered the best for the Republi
can party and the nation. but whel
in some instances he proved to be OF
the side OF the minority he did not
because of that outcome, renounoe hi
allegiance to that party and take u
with another. Fearless of though
and action, he has constantly IN
] creased his influence in the party b
