another democratic congressman, Il saw a
dispatch in the paper saying that man up
in New Jersey, / think 1t was, had been ar
rested for writing annoying letters to the
president about the Panama canal Think of
it-for writing annoying letters! Every con-
gresham gets annoying letters, and this
seems to afford happy way of dealing with
the writer's. A waste basket costs only 10
cents, it is true, and l have been in the

dispatch to Philadelphia Public Ledger.
The prestige of the president of the
United States is great, and when he moves
in determined way to obtain relief for the
public, he may depend upon the practically
united support of the people. Under those
circumstances the president of the United
States need fear no man. Republican leaders
may appeal to the spirit of craftsmanship, and
trust magnates may cry radicasm," but
president moving resOlutely in the peoples
behalf will be untouched by any of these
criticisms He may, for time, meet defeat
at the hands of republican senate controlled
by the corporations; but he will yet triumph
provided he rejects all proffers TO compro-
mise with the representatives of special in
terests and insists that real evils must be
met with real reforms. II he does not take
this determined stand; if he yields to the
pressure of politicians who pretend to be
solely anxious for party harmony; If he pre-
fers to become the political leader of party
undisturbed by concern for the public welfare,
rather than the courageous and uncompromis-
ing champion of public interests, then he
will fail-and fall. And then it may be writ
ten of another:

the markets would be inadequate while the
practice of speculation which has taken hold
of the frenzied fnanciers Of Wall street and
other money center5 obtains An elastic cur
rency sufficient to meet the legitimate busi-
ness of the country might be contriyed but
no currency system, however elastic, could
be adequate to cover the stringency caused by
enterprises founded entirely upon wind,
watered stock speculations and get-rich-quick
schemes. The demands for such purposes
causes stringency that Is felt throughout the
entire country. Since no adequate solution
of this question has yet proceeded from the
combined brain power of the great body OF
our financiers and national lawmakers, 1t
might be pertinent to suggest that they
concentrate their efforts upon the root OF
evil and find out IL something Ia not wrong

been made to nulify the laws of Missouri
and of the United States by systematic
deceit intended for personal advantage"
For this the managers of the Standard Oil
company must answer to law. There is no
joke about their attempt to make themselves
irresponsible by multiplying the law and they
will find there is no joke about it when they
are called to account. The methods OF the

SUDDEN CHANGE IN MONEY MARKET

Banker Schiff's plea for a more elastic cur
rency has met with no response at Washington.
Meantime the interest rate at New York on call
money has fallen from 125 per cent to the normal
basis of per cent. Evidently some powerful
interest which had its clutch much of the
countrys money has 'loosened up" This was
to prevent panic. Standard Oil is trying to
break Lawsons pool and must drive stocks higher.
panic cannot come until this has been accom-
plished or has definitely failed. Then it will be
to the advantage of Wall street to drop prices az
low as possible
The threat of Mr. Schiff may, however,
not be as dangerous as he would have the
people think. He may have reason for cry
ing wolff" These men always shouting
loudly when it suits their purpose to do so.
They did it in 1896 and again in 1900 When
ever they want to profit they are not slow
to alarm the public While there is danger
of monetary stringency, we see no reason to
apprehend panic The needs of the country
too immense at present to allow any
thing of the kind AS for an elastic
rency, the one and only method Is to provide
for the issuing of nUited States treasury
notes upon some method that prudence might
dictate.-Easton (Pa Sentinel.
The proposed emergency currency is for
the purpose of avoiding such panic. But
will 1t do SO? Will not the spectators en-
large the credit bubble by borrowing more
and forcing stock prices higher? Another
thing Will not the proposed currency give
the big financiers an additional power TO
gather up the industries, create new monop-
oles and more firmly fasten on the people
the monopolies they now have? The big
monopolsts have big banks OF their own. and
the proposed law would give them the right

The Evening Star announced tonight that
on Saturday Mr.. Loeb sent for one of it's re-
porters and informed him that the Stars re-
ports were Objectionable to the White House
from the president down." The Star had
printed the facts in the case without comment
and without prejudice. Similar action by
the president has been taken in numberless
other cases, but not in quite that way. For
instance, he once directed a Washington
paper to recall from the White House it's
reporter there because he printed the facts
about a visit made by Senator Scott. Mr..
Scott, on that occasion finding that there was
delay in admitting him to the White House,
departed, saying that he would not wait.
The publication of this fact displeased the
president, and he had the reported recalled.
On another occasion woman reporter was
excluded from the White House, though there
was no question of the accuracy of her re-
ports. On this OCCASION after refusing the
young woman admittance, Mr.. Loeb called up
the managing editor of the paper, saying
that he would like to have the editor call
upon him in regard to 1t. The editor refused
to go. Instances of this kind are without
number, but this Is the first time the presi-
dent has ever intimated his desire to news
paper that il should discontinue reporting
particular news, even in a particular manner.

gressmen and others all over the city. What

PRESIDENT AND HIS POLICY

The personal characteristics of the president
as well as those phases of public policy which may
be called Rooseveltian continue to be discussed
with interest. The Springfield Republican argues
that the presidents prestige is waning and adds:
Very different circumstances have so far
attended Mr.. Roosevelt's presidential career,
and may very probably force different out
come. He has reached and apparently passed
his climacteric in popularity and power, and
it is not easily possible that so unusual
position Of unopposed and unassalable as
tendency can be recovered. 1t were better
that it should come toward the end of his
term worked out from more unpromising
beginnings, but conditions not within his con-
troll have decreed otherwise. But the change
will present far greater opportunity for
demonstrating superior WORTH and acquiring
a genuine and lasting public esteem, and Mr..
Roosevelts capacity for making the most OF
