GOLDEN RULE CURE.
Mr.. Roosevelt's Fine Remedy For the
Trust EVIL.

Mr. ROosevelt's Fine Remedy For the
Trust EVIL.
There may have been in some quar-
ters slight tremors Of apprehension as
to what the president would say about
the trusts, but any trust organizer or
promoter of combinations who should
find fault with his message would be
entirely capable of denouncing the b.
nomial theorem as seditious or OF de-
manding that the poems of Felicia He
mans be expurgated on grounds OF
public morality.
As Polk easily transferred the re-
sponsibility for the Mexican war to the
shoulders Of q willing congress. SO
President Roosevelt by graceful and
easy metonymy substitutes for his
strenuous administration the American
people. who, it seems, have charge OF
this trust matter and who will contin-
ne to show the qualities they have
shown-that is, moderation, good
sense, the honest desire to avoid doing
any damage, and yet the quiet determi-
nation to proceed step by step, without
halt and without hurry, to eliminating
or at least minimizing whatever, OF
mischief or of evil there is to inter
state commerce in the conduct of great
corporations"
Prompted, it may be, by the retro
spective view, he observes that to try
to deal with the trusts "in an tntem-
perate, destructive or demagogtc spirit
would in all probability mean that
nothing whatever would be accom-
plished and with absolute certainty
that If anything were accomplished 1t
would be Of a harmful nature"
The president is convinced that great
corporations are necessary and that
only biz men can manage them and
that big men must have big rewards
But, on the other hand, the big men
must do their managing with due re
gard to the interests Of the public as
a whole-under present laws II they
suffice, under laws yet to be made II
they seem necessary. However, In his
Judgment the most important thing,
more important than legislation, "is
the gradual growth of feeling Of re-
sponsibility and forbearance," together
with "a feeling of respect on the part
Of each man for the rights Of others. q
feeling Of broad community OF inter-
est" and 90 on.
From all Of which the men Of the
trusts are entitled to conclude that In
the opinion Of Mr.. Roosevelt pretty
much everything is for the best in this
best Of worlds, but IL lurking evil ts
anywhere to be found 1t can be cured
By q universal Observance Of the Cold
en- Rule. This ID fine, high optimism
and ought to facilitate the distribution
Of many noble block Of hitherto un-
digested securities.-New York Times.

Considering the message of President
Roosevelt in Its entirety, one impress

absence Of surprises, says the Atlanta
Constitution. On no single problem or
policy is there declaration not dis
counted by previous utterances of the
president or not foretold by the actions
Of himself and others connected with
his administration. The "big stick"

In all the familiar pristine glory Of
''stand-patism." Mr.. Roosevelt is just
little more self assured and aggres-
sive-that is all. The latter accessions
are explained in his preamble when,
attributing most Of our noteworthy
prosperity" to ''our long continued
governmental policies" he remarks
buoyantly that the people have en-

the latter and a! desire that they con-

The overwhelming keynote Of the
document is the emphasized reiteration
Of that one Of the presidents policies

but many people in Roswell would
be surprised were they to know the
value that is attached to these tags
and justly so. There are houses in

from top to bottom by their owners
who have collected these tags, and
the sum realized from them in the
course of a year runs up into many
hundreds of dollars.
