THE LAwLEss SPIRIT.
RooseveItis Public Career Abounds
in Incidents AfIOrding Alum
.dant Evidence.

Il am reminded" writes Samuel On
termyer to the New York Times, that
the Panama conspiracy (which history
vii record as ore Of the touleet and
most cowardly crimes Of modern times
and the blacklist spot in the existence
Of nation that had just accomplished
one Of the most epnobling and self
sacrificing acts in the cause Of human
liberty that was ever known is not
the only instance in which Mr.. Roose-
welt has shown that he regards the
Constitution as subject to the Execu-
tive will. to be nodded, ignored, or
trampled upon to meet his views Of ex-
pediency, instead OF looking before
him. His public career affords album
dant evidence OF his determination to
WELD all the powers Of government on
the dangerous rough rider" principle
that all means are justified to accom-
plish the desired end"
This great lawyer, in lengthy let
ter, points out the existence of the
lawless spirit" in President Roosevelt,
when he. as Governor, removed Dis
trict Attorney Gardiner. The New
York Times comments upon the I'm
termyer letter and says editorially;
This newspaper was not reckoned
among the ardent admirers of District
Attorney Asa Bird Gardiner. We de-
plored and censured his indiscretions,
personal and official. and at any mo-
meat during his term Of Office we
should have acclaimed successor to
him appointed in conformity with the
provisions of law. Yet when Governor
Roosevelt removed Mr.. Gardiner we
we're compelled to declare that the ac-
ton he had taken was wanton. law
less, and a dangerous usurpation OF
power. The Commissioner appointed
by Governor Roosevelt to hear the
charges against Colonel Gardiner had
reported that they were not proved,
and that no action should be taken.
Subsequently, without further hearing,
and, as this community pretty general
ly believed, without proper cause. the
Governor removed the District Attor-
ney and appointed Mr.. Philbin In his
place.
at was a perfectly characteristic
act. yet New Workers did not know
then that 1t was characteristic of Mr..
Roosevelt. They would have been dis
posed to regard 1t as sporadic out
break. They now know by repeated
exhibitions of Mr.. Roosevelt's disre-
gard of law that having his own way,
either with or against the statutes and
the Constitution. is confirmed habit
with him. The Gardiner incident is IL
Illustrative of the Roosevelt tempera-
ment."

LAND FRAUDS.

The Interior Department is just as
honeycombed with scandals and filed
with grafters as the Post Office,
though but little has been said about
It. The General Land Office. II in
vestigated. would far outstrip, in the
amount involved. the frauds In the
Post Once. The little already ex-
posed shows the vast ramincations Of
the land ring and the enormous acre
age they have wrcnsfully approprIa-
ted. The claim that the Roosevelt Ad-
ministration ID willing and anxious to
punish grafters and prevent stealing
Il not borne out by the lack Of prose-
cution Of the land ring. There Is an
iominous quiet in the Interior Depart
mcnt at washington: orders have been
given that no one, under threat Of dis
missal. must give out any informa-
ton. Months ago Secretary Hitchcock
promised that directly the grafters
were corralled. the facts should be
furnished to the public, so either the
plunderers are stiIl at large, or It ia
feared that exposure will "hurt the
party" The claim that this is a re-
form administration is not substsn-
tiated By what is being dane. but III
whole efforts are beinv u.ed to per-
petuste Itself, inste lad ct cleansing the

INDUSTRY DECLINING.

Our imports have declined for July
to s71,123,52 against $S2,1S7.S2S in
1903. The total value Of exports for
July was $S4,SS3, 43t. against $s1,S13.-
265 for July, 1908. For the same Pc
Rod the expenditures Of the govern
ment exceeded the receipts by over
$17O00,000. which would indicate a
deficiency Of over $75,000,000 for the
fiscal year. II the Democrats had
elected a majority in Congress two
years ago, these ominous figures
would be pointed to by the Republic
cans as the result of such victory,
but now we know-for Shaw has told
us-protection Is panic-proof, and
prosperity" and high prices are still
with us. We will have to Issue bonds
and increase taxation in some way
under this devastating policy Of the
Republicans, which is evidently de-
stroying our foreign trade and redu-
cling our ability to buy foreign goods.
But the trusts are constantly getting
frmer grip Of the situation, and
viii VIII furnish US all we ought to have
at the high prices the tariff allows
them to charge. But, as Secretary
Shaw says, high prices is an accom-
paniment of prosperity, and to keep
1t we must vote the Republican ticket,
pay and look pleased.

sThe News Tribune says that Dunn's
answer has shattered the johnson
charges of irregularity il his (Dunn'e)
conduct of the state auditors otfice.
The Evening Herald says that Dunn is
convicted by his own words; so there
you have it as you want it according to
the authority you prefer. That's more
politics. Before accepting the Johrso
charges as paramount or as evldencing
true public spirit in the man who
makes them people will probably want
to know whether it is not for political
effect. rather than for the public
good that he makes them and whether
they ever would have been made if
Dunn had not beaten Johnson's man
and thus become the candida to for
governor. Voters do not care much for
charges which, if true, do not show thai
the law was violated or that the state
was defrauded. If the charges made do
show such things, in court is the p ace
TO present them, not in the newspapers.
Let some of the holier-than-thou &C.
cusers of Dunn who can show a public
record that is above hostile criticism
hold up their hands. We take this
view of the matter not as one of Dunn's
adherents, because we are not one OF
them, but we despiso the hypocrite who
has never thought of the public good
until his own official head is at stake;
and he, as rule, is the meanest OF
character assasins.
