What They Would Like to See.

WOulQ most like to see lllHllSllGtl during the next four years has been ascertained by the Christian Herald. That paper received a number of rath- CT notable replies to its query: What in your opinion is the most desirable thing to be hoped for by the American people during the four years of Presi- dent Roosevelts administration? 9"
 The gist of some of these replies is given below:
 w. J. Bryan-A government of "equaI rights to all and special priv Heges to none"
 Senator Frye-Peace.
 Speaker Cannon-we should ad- vance as rapidly as possible the great constructive work of the Panama ca nal
 Postmaster General Wynne-Aggres- sive integrity in the public service.
 Ex-SecretaIy Long-The simple life.
 Railroad President NJ. E. Ingalls, Peace and prosperity.
 w. E. Chandler-Laws prohibiting national banks and other corporations from contributing from their corpora tion treasuries money in aid of polit- icaI parties.
 ohm w FOster-Peace with the rest of the world.
 College President Charles F. Thwing A better understanding and Q more sympathetic appreciation of labor by capital and of capital by labor.
 The Rev. c. M. SheIton-Some ac- tion putting an end to the lawlessness of capital
 Senator H G. Davis-Closer rela- tiQns with people of the other coun- tries of this continent
 Edward Everett Hale-The restora- ton of universal peace. The first duty in this direction seems to me to be the establishment of a Pan-American rail road from Hudson Bay to Patagonia.
 Congressman w. P. Hepburn-Com- pletion of the Panama canal.
 Senator Cullom-The arbitration of differences among the nations.
 Labor Commissioner wright-In- creased respect for law.
 Senator Foraker-RestOrat of the American merchant marine.
 President John A. Mccall, New York Life-NationaI supervision of all in surance companies and casualty cor porations.
 Governor Herrick of Ohio-The re- establishment of the American mer- chant marine. \ President Richard A. McCurdy, Mu- tuaI Life-A universal tribunal of ar bitration.
 These replies are of interest partic- ular.y for the insight they give into the trend of thought of these repre- sentative Americans. Probably that which best reflects the wish of the American people as a whole is Sen ator Frye's Peace" Others give ex- preston to some phase of that thought, ex-Secretary Foster in his reference to the foreign relations of the government; cx-SecreJary Long in sreIking for "thc simple life" of which he is sn eZempIar; Dr. Edward Everett Hale, who gives his idea of an impor- tant step toward that end-a step which finds indorsement at the hands Of ex-Senator Davis; Senator Cullom and Mir. McCurdy, who speak for in ternational arbitration; MT. Ingalls,, who links it with a hope for prosper ity; pr. Thwing, who speaks for peace l in the industrial world, and MT. Bryan, whose hope is for a policy which will insure domestic peace. The eyes of Speaker Cannon and Congressman Hepburn are centered 1pon the Panama canal project; Sen atOr Foraker and Governor Herrick of Ohio speak for the merchant marine, the ship subsidy having for some time been a live issue in Buckeye politics; ex-Senator Chandler, having repented his sins of 1876, hopes for purity in politics; President Mccall would have national supervision of insurance com panies and casualty corporations-a rather notable and interesting express sion coming from such a source, and Postmaster General Wynne calls for that aggressive integrity in the public service" of which he is so splendid an example and which he has done so much to promote.
