PERsoNIFIED SPIRIT OF THE PEOPLE

In hot speech at the recent Gridron banquet Presi
dent Roosevelt is reported to have said shaking his finger
in the direction of H. H. Rogers, J. p Morgan and Sena-
tor Foraker eff you gentlemen not willing to accept
the action of the conservative class which ready to af
ford protection alike to the rich and the poor will say
to you that when you have disposed of by your
Vaccinations you will find yourselves face to face with
people which believes has been deprived of its rights
and mob which does not have the least respect for your
rches.'
These words may not be correctly reported for every
body present bound to secrecy.
But to their substance, President Roosevelt himself
has confirmed them in his every public word and official
act for the last six years
We need not depend any impulsive words uttered
at secret meeting to know his attitude.
From the moment he became president he has unfnch-
lngy fought the special privileges and usurpations
through which the equality of political rights secured by
the fathers is rendered of avail by the inequality Of
property that hedged by law strengthened by monopoly
and made perpetual through corporations is wping out
the great middle class and giving the that

in Europe where class that produces all enjoys moth
ing while another class that produces nothing enjoys all
With frnness equal to his fearessness President
Roosevelt has grasped hold upon the really vital problems
of this nations destiny And everybody knows just where
he stands and what he stands for.
The everncreasing load of wrongs which for years the
people have sought to have ghtened- have
failed IN their lack Of concentration and capable leader
ship-he has resoutey seized and is seeking to shift.
Other presidents have equivocated and compromised,
failing to comprehend fearing to grasp the great
question that for three decades has filled the hearts of
the American people with misgivngs and discomfort;
Roosevelt does not for moment fear or fater.
For him the powerful trusts have terrors. Within
him is the vire spirit of the people and supporting him
Is the irresistible strength of a nation of freemen
Intensely human, he is capable of We may
carp at his hastness in the Brownsville and japanese af
fairs, rldcue his diplomatic combat with Mrs. Storer and
find many other mistakes with which to mock him. But
these not Roosevelt; they only his shadow
The real Roosevelt rises high above individual fraites
and virtues he is far than personality; he is
a tremendous civic force--as a magazine writer
puts it, "a force for righteousness
In him personifed the spirit and purpose of all
the His sympathies with the burden bearers
and alive and keen.
The confused babbe of discomfort is being interpreted
through his acts into clear speech
The ndefnabe longings of the millions are being
nodded into definite purpose.
He is truthful spokesman of the times and of the nation
when, with finger warningy raised at Morgan, Rogers
and their kind he declares that justice must and shall
be done.

Adelina Patti, the celebrated oper-

years she was heard in various grand

her high reputation. Nine. Patti has

Champagne drinking in the
United States Is on the Wane

Associated Press to The Evening Tines.
Washington, Feb. 18.-Apparently
champagne drinking in the United
States is on the wane. Both the guam
tity and value of that beverage i'm
ported into this country last year were
less than in the preceding one and
practically no greater than a dozen
years ago.
This is only one of several surpris-
ing features of statement issued
today by the bureau of statistics on
the ebb and flow of the commerce of
the United State in 1906" The figures
show that 394,727 dozen quarts of
champagne and other sparkling wines
were imported in 1906, valued at S.
S55,425 while in the Immediately pre-
ceding year the number of dozen
quarts was 4S1,514 valued at $685.
651. Another surprising fact is that
while the United States is one of the
greatest coffee consuming countries
in the world, yet it is actually export
ing that product. The exports of do
nestle products include 31,51S, 496
pounds of green or raw coffee valued at
S3,S70,592. This is explained by the fact
that Porto Rico and the Hawaiian
islands are customs districts of the
United States and that their exports
to foreign countries are now included
with the figures or exports from the
various customs districts of this coun-
try. 1t is stated that doubtless all OF
this coffee is the product of the islanl
possessions referred to. In addition
13,500,000 pounds of coffee of foreign
production brought into this country
was re-exported.
Still another curious feature of
American commerce is that while this
country produces three-fourths of the
worlds cotton $11 100000 worth of that
product was imported last year to say
nothing Of 100000 worth of waste
cotton. This product, however, is of
a different quality from that produced
in the United States, being of the
long and silky fibre, coming princi-
The evening times. [volume] (Grand Forks, N.D.) 1906-1914, 1907-02-19

pally from Egypt.
While this country is the largest
manufacturer of cotton goods the inn
portations of manufacturers of this
product aggregate in round figures
$69,OOO,OO0 in value which was more
thon 80 per cent in excess of the value
OF these goods exported.
The imports of automobiles amount.
ed to nearly $5,00O,OOO in value but
this figure was practically Offset by
the exports of automobiles amounting
in value to $4,409,1S6. OF the exports
of these machines 100000 worth
went to the United Kingdom and
nearly another 100000 worth to
other European countries.
Tropical countries also were large
purchasers of this class of vehicles,
Mexico having purchased $717,523
worth, against $192,452 in 1905; while
the West Indies and Bermuda took
S241,O00 worth; South America $751;
600; Australia nearly 100000 and
the British East Indies $34,111 worth.
In the copper industry although
eu1S Souulis pFOuuceS One-nalf OF the
worlds copper and is one of the larg-
est exporters of that product 1t also
is one of the largest importers of that
commodity. The value of copper i'm
ports in 1906 was over $4,000, 900
while the exports of copper amounted
to over $90,000,000. This anomaly an.
parently grows out Of the fact that the
United States has superior melting
and refining facilities and that the
copper from it's immediate neighbors
at the north and south-Canada and
Mexfco-fows to its smelling estab-
lishments and refineries. The United -
States which has steadily reduced its |

than one billion pounds in the fiscal |

of the foreign tin re-exported.
