TARIFF TRIMMING
Why the Work Shon1d Be Entrusted
to Republicans.

This is but an allusion to a phase OF
what the Republican party, as it exists,
is doing and is going to do. particular
phase to which reference is made, casu-
ally, as to the regulation of the tariff in
the future. Those who make things
know best what to do with the things
they have made. The Republican party
having made the tariff, which has made
this country the most prosperous of all
the countries of all the world, is the
only party which can readjust the tariff
rs occasion may demand
Naturally, aud very properly, from
their point of view, the opponents of the
Republican party concede nothing. AS u
preliminary, they claim the tariff is Il
monster of some sort; that it is bad and
has been ever bad. Nevertheless, under
certain existent circumstances it seems
to have worked well, and our great trade

SECOND TERM QUESTION.
RooscveIt's Claim to the Presideuc
Stronger than Any Other Mans.

Stronger than Any Other Mans.
tiNansas City Times, independently
If President Roosevelt had been elect
cd to the office he now occupies, Judge
Parker's declaration that, if chosen Pres
ident, he would not be a candidate for
reelection, might have some special
weight i'll the present canvass among
those who are believers in the one -term
principle. But President Roosevelt came
into office by accident. lie was made
Vice President against his personal
wishes and political Judgment. He was
duty bound and he voluntarily pledged
himself to carry out, so far as possible,
the policies of his predecessor. If he
has done well, he is especially entitled
to the votes of>the people. Under the
circumstances his claim to the presidency
is stronger than that of any ordinary
candidate could be, for if he has faith
fully fulfilled the office to which he was
called by accident he should be honored
with the same Office by election. His
present incumbency of the presidential
post should at least serve as a reliable
probationary service. 1t is for the peo-
pie to answer to his administration, for
il it has been equal to or above the aver
age, or satisfactory generally. he has
stronger claims than any other man
could have, for he asks an Endorsement
where another would ask for trust.
And this is the way the country is likely
to look ut the situation. President Roose-
welt has made himself tremendously
strong with the masses. He has con
WINGED the nation Of his honesty, courage
and capacity. He has pleased vastly
more Democrats than he has offended Re
publcians. And both the admiration he
lns aroused on the one hand and the en-
nifty he has engendered on the other are
tributes to his virtue and motives.
