THE INAUGURAL ADDRESS
OF PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT

The inaugural address of President
Roosevelt, who yesterday for the first
time assumed his Office as the peoples
elected president, is remarkable for
one thing-it it short.
Aside from this, it contains nothing
new, though it does emphasize some
very pertinent moral truths. Were it
not labelled as an inaugural address,
it would probably, by the majority of
people, be classed as a Sunday SER
mon.
And therein we may say lies its
most important feature. The presi-
dent has given utterance to some very
lofty sentiments, and the mere fact
that they are not new does not de.
tract in the least from their value,
coming as they do from the nations
executive head.
Much has been given u.s." says
President Roosevelt. land much will
rightfully be expected from u.s.
''Our relations with the other powers
Of the world are important" he con-
tinues further along; but still more
important are our relsSeons among our
selves" And in the same paragraph
Power invariably means both re-
sponsibility and danger"
These are good words coming from
the president of the Republic if, as We
believe it is, President Roosevelt's Of
fetal life is to be actuated by the senti-
ments which they express.
Only in one instance does he show
any signs Of that war-like spirit which
the public has so often been told con-
stitutes such a predominating element
in his character. Even then his words
are carefully guarded and you catch
only the fash, as il were, Of polish

When they become better acquainted

with him, the south will find that
Mr. Roosevelt is more of a democrat
than the average northern leader of
their party whom they have been
in the habit of following of late
Chicago Chronicle.
Whether the Chronicle intended to
compliment Mr.. Roosevelt or ISLAM"
the average northern leader" is not
entirely clear, but the truth of its
assertion nevertheless We are quite
ready to admit. There are many
qualities in Roosevelt which we
consider unquestionably more demo-
cratic than some Of the qualities
possessed by the democratic party's
most recent leaders.
