THE INCOMPATIBLE BEvERiDGE

| (From the Louisville Courier-J ournaD
Here is what Senator Beveridge
said to the good-and grateful-people
of Maine during his recent tour Of that
state:
1.-The glorious American people,
torch-bearers of liberty; this American
republic, hope of the world; this Amer
lean land, SO nobly placed, so rich in
all that ministers to human use and
happiness; that people will not be cor
rupted by their prosperity, because
their prosperity will be honest and
pure; that republic will not decay, be-
cause it's government will be kept
close to that people; that land will
not bespoiled and rifled by crazed eff
forts for hasty wealth, but made richer
by intelligent industry and care. De-
velopment, not exploitation; progress,
not decadence; while even brighter
shines the light of the true freedom
that men call equity before the law,
onward and upward, carried by the
American millions as they press for
ward in the strength and joy of right
eous living, passing by the gods of
gold and leaving behind them the false
worship of the broken idols of the
market place-a market cleansed, set
in order and regenerated So shall
American civilization be made immor-
tai and American institutions a bles-
sing to mankind"
Some time before the opening of the
campaign Mr.. Cannon had tried to de-
scribe conditions in the United States.
The best he could do was to say This
country is a hell of success" After
The independent. [volume] (Lincoln, Neb.) 1902-1907, 1906-11-08

President Roosevelt's Indignation and
disgust are not altogether without
justification. In the presence of the
kaiser Prof Burgess told how, at his
first meeting with Mr.. Roosevelt after
his appointment to deliver this course
of lectures, the president had referred
to him as IAN ambassador of peace,
friendship and civilization" Then
Prof Burgess proceeded to inform, his
audience that a high protective tariff
and the Monroe doctrine are almost
obsolete
Anybody has right to believe that
the Dingley tariff and the Monroe
doctrine are almost obsolete, but If
Prof. Burgess had wished to express
such an opinion he should not have
dragged in the president, thereby
making possible the inference that Mr..
Roosevelt also believed them almost
obsolete
Prof. Burgess dictum not only falls
foul of Mr. Roosevelts own notions,
but it is not true The idea of high
protective tariff is not almost obsolete,
or congress would have revised the
Dingley schedules long ago. The Mon
roe doctrine is anything but obsolete.
Students and philosophers and states
men may think both ought to be obso-
lete, but facts are facts.
If the German government should
accept Prof. Burgess assertion and
try to deal with the United States
on the theory that high protective
tariff and the Monroe doctrine are
almost obsolete, much diplomatic en-
barrassment would be certain to re-
suit. This would be an unfortunate
sequel to an indiscreet remark uttered
by IAN ambassador of peace, friend
ship and civilization" Perhaps the
best thing President Roosevelt can do
is to send Taft to Berlin to straighten
things out.

THE PRESIDENTS CABINET
(From the Chicago Record-Herald)

(From the Chicago Record-Herald)
When President Roosevelts an
nounced changes in the cabinet are
made next March he will have among
his advisers not only republicans, but
also one representative of the great
following he has secured outside his
own party. Paul Morton, it is true,
was a recently converted democrat,
but Oscar S. Straus, who is to be-
come secretary of the department OF
commerce and labor, as late as few
weeks ago called himself democrat
over his own signature. Mr.. Straus
has not for many years acted with
the democracy, but apparently he has
always had hopes, and perhaps still
has, that he may by and by find him
self in syfpathy with that party. At
any rate he is Roosevelt man strong
enough to put at the head OF the de-
partment in which Roosevelt policies
are of the greatest importance. a
1t is probable that the announced
changes will put the cabinet in the
form which it will retain till the end
of the present administration. The
navy department will receive it's fifth
secretary under President Roosevelt.
Long was in office upon the presidents
accession. Then came Moody and
Morton and Bonaparte, and now Met
calf The president is often accused
of exaggerated interest in the navy,
but certainly his method of using the
navy office as a training ground for
cabinet officers for whom he plans
other positions has not been to the
advantage of the navy. Rather it has
subordinated the navy to the needs of
other departments.
Secretaries Root and Taft, who re-
tain their places in the state and war
Departments, are the second men to
serve under Roosevelt in those Offices,
Root having succeeded Hay, and Taft
Root. Secretaries Wilson and Hitch
cock, who remain in the agriculture
and interior departments both have
held Office since McKinley's day.
In the treasury Gage and Shaw have
been Cortelyou's predecessors. In the
department of justice Knox and Moody
have preceded Bonaparte. In the post
Office Smith and Payne, Wynne for
few months, and Cortelyou have pre-
ceded Meyer. Metcalf has been the
only secretary of the department of
commerce and labor to precede Straus.
The cabinet, after the changes are
made, will still contain three of Presi-
dent McKinley's cabinet officers, and
in addition Taft, whom Mckinley
chose for Philippine responsibilities,
and Cortelyou, who was secretary to-
President Mckinley.
