With the plauditS Which he mas re
tceived on account of his timely inter
vention between the Russians and Ja-
panese, Mr.. Roosevelt can console him
self little for his failure in Panama
and the bitterness stirred up against
him in South America.
At the moment, the President of the
United States must feel very proud
and happy.
He has succeeded in putting an end
to the furious warfare between two
countries; he has put stop to men
killing one another; he has re-estas
lished peace in the far East. Perhaps
without realizing it himself, he has
worked for the triumph of justice.
The offcious press constantly repeats
the fattering words which comph-
ment Mr.. Roosevelt on his instrumen =
tality in bringing about peace. And
these commen taries, as sweet music
of soft melodies, carry to the mind of
the Caesar sensations OF Joy. The
whole world applauds his skill and
claps its hands in approval.
Mr. Roosevelt may well feel salts
fed; his triumph. is a personal one. 1t
is not the triumph of the United Sta
tes, it is a Roosevelt triumph. His
triumph is very muck like the artistic
ones of Nero. He has also known
how to choose stage that would show
him off to the best advantage and t.
appear upon it when the eyes of all the
world we're fixed thereon. His ap
pearance before the public has been
dramatic; al the moment when two co
mbatants which have been battling
fiercely, are about to cease, worn out,
painting for breath, exhausted from
loss of blood, he steps in and makes
it APPEAR as if he had separated them
with supreme exhibition of power.
He knew how to assume gallant
pose, he knew the proper time to mu-
muir magic word in the ears of the
thousands of men destined to be xii
led. He spoke of peace, which was
the same as speaking of life, and the
horrified eyes of those worn out mul-
titudes gazed upon him with look Of
gratitude
Mr.. Roosevelt, intoxicated as he
was Oy the noisy piauoltS, olo not see
that look which was the very soul of
the ovation. ~&
He is accustomed to great demons
trations, he enjoys applause, he seeks
notoriety.
If success in his intervention in the
conflict in the fa;r EAST had not assur
ed him series Of great ovations, Mr..
Roosevelt would not have taken the
slightest interest in terminating the
war.
But the result having been foreseen,
the crucial moment having been cho-
sen, The scenic effect prepared, the
Caesar of imperialism could dazzle
his people wjtk his personal triumphs,
with his own victories, with his indiv-
idual conquests, fascinating the mul-
titudes in the United States by the
