A WORLD POWER.

President Roosevelt's policy of max
ing braggart and bully of Uncle
Sam, is causing him to get nothing but
criticism from every quarter.
The United States has always been
respected, and nation like an indi-
vidual, is better off with the respect
of his neighbors than their fear.
Editor Pulitzer of St. Louis hands
the President out some rather hot
ones in the following:
The assurance with which you. Mr..
President, born in 1858. assume to
have discovered the United States
and it's policies are even more aston1-
ing than the policies themselves. You
tell us that the Monroe doctrine will
be an object of derision unless We
have a mighty navy. The Monroe
doctrine was thirty years old when
you were born, and doing remarkably
well, as it has been ever since. You
tell us that without still newer. still
bigger first-class navy we must def
nitely make up our minds to accept a
secondary position, not only in polite.
al but in commercial matters When
you cut your first tooth we had the
greatest merchant marine in the world
greater even than England sand
our navy was insignificant. Our
mercantile shipping on blue water
has steadily declined under the re-
strictive policies you favor, and it is
smaller now than when the first keel
of the new navy was laid.
You tell us that under your leader
ship we have just become world
power" What were we-pardon the
personal illustration-more than a
generation before you were born.
when, with only ten million people
and insignificant araments, we flung
the Monroe doctrine into the teeth
of the Holy Alliance?
Considering your intelligence and
your knowledge of American history,
your attitude seems a mystery. What
can be it's explanation?
What can be the purpose of all these
shrieks for mighty army and navy
these frienzied denunciations of "coyr
ards,'' "weaklings'' and "cravens,' who
sordidly mind their own business in
stead of flying to S'ms, W.: no dis
cernible provocations, these frantic
wavings of the mailed fist in the face
of the nations? The spectacle is eS
traordinary and bewildering. TIL
country is in no danger from any
power of Europe. All the nations {
the Old World are watching ear
other afraid of each other. and inf
nitely more in dread of us, the terri
flying American Peril" than we couIs
possibly be of them. Not one of Their
would dream of adding war with u!
to it's others dangers, if we gave it
chance to escape. If we could stan
against England with our great arm;
ments ninety years ago, when we ha
only eight million people, what hav
we to fear now with eighty million
and eight hundred time the resource
and power for war? (From the Ne
