cord with all his policies. 1t must be
mighty embarrassing to have one Of
his advisors kick over the traces, in
the way Mr.. Bonaparte has done.
Mr.. Bonaparte for years has been
recognized as q man possessed Of the
very highest and incest sense Of
honor. He is fellow-reformer and
the presidents friend Of many years
standing. It is inconceivable that he
would wilfully do anything to seri-
ously embarrass the administration.
The natural inference, therefore, is
that the president was acquainted
with Mr.. Bonaparte's views, and was
willing, for the sake of having him
in the cabinet, that he should give
public expression to them when suit
able occasion arose.
Courts Open Fight.
That would seem rather quixotic
thing for the head Of an administra-
ton to do, but it is Rooseveltian in
the extreme. Unlike some other
strong men of positive minds who
have occupied the white house, Mr..
Roosevelt does not hesitate to gather
strong and positive men about him.
Mr.. Cleveland, for instance, was very
impatient Of opposition to his views.
Roosevelt, while very like Cleveland
in many respects, seems rather to.
court opposition of the frank and
open kind. Some very serious diff
ferences have arisen at times between
the president and members of his
cabinet, but they always have been
fought out in a friendly manner.
Sometimes the president has yielded,
at other times the cabinet member
