WHY ROOSEVELT ISN'T TRUSTED.

One Of the reasons there is so much
objection TO Mr.. Roosevelt among the
business interests Of the country is
that he isn't regarded as a safe man
10 have al the head Of the government.
We called attention a day or two ago
10 a story told by Judge Parker, TO the
effect that Mr.. Roosevelt said 10 him
on one occasion. that Of all the Offices
in the gift OF the people or Of the
government he would rather be COVER
nor OF the Philippines. for the reason
that he would be independent Of Con-
gress and wouldn't have TO respect the
wishes OF the politicians. What Mr..
Roosevelt meant was that he would
like TO Ill a position in which his will
would be supreme. in which, in fact,
ne would be a dictator.
That this is true is shown by the
report Of the Civil Service Commits
sion which was sent to Congress a
day or two ago. II appeared from
that report that Mr.. Roosevelt has
suspended the civil service law sixty
six times during the three years he
has been President. while Mr.. McKin-
Icy suspended it only three times while
he was President.
To the great majority Of people this
interference with the operations Of the
civil service law doesn't count for
much, and yet il indicates the kind of
a man Mr.. Roosevelt is. AS Is well
known he Is one Of the strongest sup
porters OF the civil service law. when
he was one OF the civil service com
rnissioners he wouldn't permit the
slightest relaxation Of that law il he
could help it. Indeed, it is probable
that he has done more than any other
man to fasten the civil service law on
the country. And yet President Nc
Kinley. who. probably. wasn't a great
advocate OF the law. suspended its op-
Grafton only three times TO make ap-
pointments Of applicants who hadn't
submitted TO examination. while Mr.
Roosevelt, who is one OF the laws
strongest advocates has suspended it
sixty-six times.
Mr.. Roosevelt doesn't like to be
bound by law when he wants to do
thing. He wants TO do as ne pleases
without regard to the law. He wanted
to give places in the civil service to
persons who hadn't passed the re-

Of seniority. from the admiral down

at last TO the sick quarters. In one
Of the sick hays stood a weird-look-

he turned for aid TO his immediate
successor. who. similarly embarrassed,
passed the query further back, until
IL reached the junior at the end OF the
line. and was still unanswered
All the time Kaiser Wilhelm stood
waiting for information with a look
Of exaggerated anxiety upon his face
At last, when informed that absolutely

sAvANxAH's POPULATION.

The government census bureaus es-
innate OF population for 1893 gives Sa-
vanpah ss.5s2 This is somewhat be-
low the estimates Of the compilers Of
the Savannah city directories. The
Walsh Directory estimates that the
population OF the territory within the
scope OF the volume is more than 60
GO" and the Goette Directory esti-
mates that there are 7S.I5l people who
make their homes in this city. In all
probability the directory estimates are
a little high and the bureau estimate
a little low, though in each instance it
is evident that the calculators have en-
deavored TO get as near TO the truth
as possible without an actual count OF
ali individuals. But. taking the gov
ernment's estimate as a basis, it is
shown that Savannah has had a re-
markable growth in three years. The
census OF 1900 gave the official figures
OF population for Savannah at 54.z44
II We have now s4,5s2 population, it
shows that We have increased by 10
31s, or nearly % per cent. in three
years. Should the same rate of
growth be maintained until the next
census year, we would be rubbing the
100, COO mark pretty close. As a mat
ter Of fact. there are reasons for hop
ing and believing that b. 1910 VIC shal!
reach and possibly pass that mark
The efforts that are being made by
the Chamber Of Commerce and other
commercial bodies to bring IN new peo-
pie are bearing fruit, and a great
many people are coming 10 Savannah
OF their own accord. without being
asked to do so.
