THE MONROE DOCTRINE
AS ROOSEVELT INTERPRETs IT..
Presidents Notable Speech at chau-
tauqua, N. Y.-Earnest Words On
the Trust Problem.


Chautauqua, N. Y. Aug. 12.-"Let us
give President Roosevelt the Chautau-
qua salute at its best"
With thes words Bishop John II.
Vincent closed his brief introduction
of the President to the Chautauqua
assembly yesterday.
Instantly 10000 white handkerchiefs
futtered in the air over the heads of
the vast audience in the great amphi-
theater.
1t was an inspiring and beautiful
sight, and as President Roosevelt
stepped forward smiling. the audience
rose as one person and cheered en-
Enthusiastically.
President Roosevelt began the deliv-
cry of his address at 11:05. He said:
To-day l avish to speak to you on
the feature of our national foreign pol
icy and one feature of our national do
nestle policy.
THE Monroe doctrine is not a part
of international law. But it is the fun
damental feature of our entire foreign
policy, so far as the Western hemis-
phere is concerned, and it has more
and more been meeting with recogni-
ton abroad. The reason why it is
meeting with this recognition is be-
cause we have not allowed 1t to be-
come fossilized, but have adapted our
construction of 1t to meet the growing,
changing needs of this hemisphere.
Fossilization, of course, means death.
whether to an individual, govern
ment,, or a doctrine.
LAS regards the Monroe doctrine,
we must recognize the fact that in
some South American countries there
has been much suspicion lest we
should interpret the Monroe doctrine
in some way inimical to their inter
| ests. Now, let It be understood once
for all that no just and orderly govern
ment on this continent has anything
to fear from us.
1T must be understood that under no
circumstances will the United States
use the Monroe doctrine as a cloak
for territorial aggression. Should any
of our neighbors, no matter how tur-
bulent, how disregardful of our rights,
finally get into such position that the
utmost limits of our forbearance are
reached, all the people south of us
may rest assured that no action Will
ever be taken save what is absolutely
demanded by our self-respect; that
this action will not take the form of
territorial aggrandizement on our
part"
The President. in discussing the
trust problem, said:
THE enormous increase in inter
state trade makes 1t proper that the
federal government should, so far as
may be necessary to carry into effect
it's national policy. assume degree OF
administrative control of these great
corporations.
Certain meat packers
will have to submit to reasonable SUI
pervision and regulation by the ma
tional authorities. or else they will ul-
timately have to submit to government
tai action of far more drastic type.
We must not try to go too fast, un-
der penalty of finding that we may be
going in the wrong direction; and. in
any event, we ought always to pro
ceed by evolution, and not by revolu-
ton.
1.-THE laws must be conceived and
executed in spirit of sanity and JUS
tice, and with exactly as much regard
for the rights of the big man as for
the rights of the little man-treating
big man and little man exactly alike. ;"

The Wheat Crop for 1905 Will be Lars-
est Since 1901.

A Chic ago correspondent of the
New York Herald has made care
full estimate of the wheat crop OF
1905, which he considers the largest
since 1901 .-Courier-Journal.
The winter wheat crop in fourteen
States is estimated at 348, 600, 900
bushels. The Kansas is assigned
rs, 900, 900, to Nebraska 39,0O0,OOO and
In Missouri 37,000,O 900 bushels, these
three being the largest producers.
To Kentucky are assigned 100000
bushels. The total winter wheat
crop in all the States is put at ALL
100000 bushels.
The spring wheat crop is involved
in more uncertainty, because the
harvest is further away, but on the
basis of the present condition it is
figured at 5000, 600 bushels. Adj
ding the two together, we get a
grand total of 670,000,0O0 bushels.
This gives the largest crop since
1901, when the final figures were
74s, 46O,2lS bushels.
The correspondent says farmers
throughout the central parts of Ken
lucky are well agreed that the State
will have a better crop than 1T had
last year-''the best yield per acre
in decade" A Fayette county
farmer is quoted as saying that tins
will be Kentucky's banner year for
wheat.
The amount of a crop in the Unit
ed States is never subject upon
which the makers of estimates can
agree. The Herald's figures appear,
however, to have been compiled
with care.
