its eyes TO It's own debts, but keeps them
wide open to the debts OF others.

some of his policies which the
Senators of his own party are dis.
posed to turn down. This, if true,
would be Il remarkable thing for n
Republican President to do, but
then Mr.. Roosevelt is given to do
ing things out of the common.
He has made himself more or less
popular by exploiting in his mes
sages and speeches serval policies
that have been prominent features
of Democratic platforms, but has
shown disposition to hedge when
some of his friends were about to
be caught in the violation Of laws
which these policies demanded
should be rigidly enforced. 1t
was so when Morton was about to
be hauled before the bar of justice
for rebating, and when he dis
missed Minister Bowen for expos
