SIX WEARS OF MIR. ROOSEVELT

Kinley died and Theodore Roosevelt
took the oath of Office as President
of the United States. These have
been six eventful years, and Mr..
Roosevelt could not spend the day to
better advantage than by taking a
dispassionate inventory Of his stew
ardship.
Should the President do this he
would discover, perhaps to his own
amazement, that his greatest tri-
upms as chief magistrate have been
won not as an agitator for new law
but as an administrator of existing
law.
No new legislation was needed for
the prosecution of the Northern Sc
curities case or the other cases prose-
cuted and won under the Sherman
Antitrust Act, by which the power
Of the national government to curb
trusts and monopolies has been fully
established.
No new legislation was needed for
the prosecution of the rebate cases
under which the Standard Oil Com
pany has been fined $29,240,000, a
dozen railroads have been punished
and the unlawful practice virtually
eradicated. All this has been ac-
complished under the Elkins Act, and
the punishment Of the railroad re-
baters could have been better accom-
plished under the original Interstate
Commerce Act Of 1887, from Which
the prison penalty was eliminated
with Mr.. Roosevelt's s consent in 1903.
No new legislation was needed for
the investigation of Hartman s
swindling railroad operations. These
revelations were all made under pow
ers conferred upon the commission
by the act of 1887.
No new legislation was needed to
hunt down and convict Senator
Mitchell and The other powerful
Western land thieves, their aids and
accomplices. The business Of steal
ing government land has been broken
up simply by vigorous enforcement
of existing law.
No new legislation was needed to
purge the postoffice department of the
rascality which years of corruption
had fortified, or to convict Senator
Burton, or Gaynor, or other infuen-
tial criminals whom Mr.. Roosevelt s
administration has brought to justice.
No new legislation will be neces-
sary for Mr.. Roosevelt to institute
criminal proceedings against E. H.
Hartman and other wealthy offend
ers, and to demonstrate that there is
really to be no immunity for any
criminal, rich or poor"
In his enforcement of existing stat
utes Mr.. Roosevelt has been at his
best. This has been his most note
worthy service to the people of the
United States, the achievement for
which he deserves secure place in
history. He has broken up the part
nership that existed between the great
corporations and the government of

The insurance subscriptions were
additional to the heavier subscrip-
tions previously made by the Big
-Four and already proven by testi-
mony that can not be questioned, and
the chances are that the other sub
scriptions were also supplementary.
On the eve of the election when no
considerable money could be expend-
ed except in the buying of votes,
100000 was turned over by Cortel-
you to Governor Odell, who was man
aging the Higgins campaign in New
York, and Cortelyou retained for
other purposes 100000. The facts
and figures, says The World, came
from source that leaves no room

AVENGED ALLEGED WRONG
Slayer Acquitted Three Hours
After Death of Victim.

Macon, Ca, May 1-Within three
hours after his Staying of Henry D.
Smith, wealthy printer here, l.. D.
Strong, manager Of one of the largest
stores in the city, was released from
arrest following verdict by a cor
oner's jury Of "justifiable homicide "
The unwritten law was the justifca.
ton. The tragedy aroused tremendous
excitement throughout the city, chiefly
by reason of the prominence of the
principals and the fact that Smith had
fired, as he believed, in punishment
for the wronging of his sister. When
Strong stepped out of the coroner's
courtroom a free man he was received
with enthusiastic cheers. Smith lived
just long enough to deny the accusa-
ton against him. He said he knew
he was dying and that he was inno-
cent.
Strong fired five bullets into the
body Of his victim. The murder was
witnessed by score of Smiths en-
ployes. Among them were six women,
all of whom fell to the floor fainting.
Five minutes before the shooting the
grand jury had handed up an indict-
ment against Smith charging him
with an attack on Miss Lillian Strong,
sister Of the murderer. The girl her
self was the chief witness.

DIFFERS WITH DOCTOR
President Reiterates His Views on
Subject Of Race Suicide.
ANSWERS MAGAZINE ARTICLE
Declares That the Decrease Of Births
in Well to Do Families Tends to the
Elimination Instead of the Survival
Of the Fittest.

OF the Fittest.
New York, May lin letter to
the editor of the Review Of Reviews
President Roosevelt takes exception to
certain statements made in an article
on 1.-THE Doctor in the Public School,"
published in the April number Of that
periodical, and takes occasion to re-
new his expressions on the subject of
race suicide.
This writer states clearly" says
the president, that it Is an erroneous
idea to assume that the average fam
lily should have larger number of
healthy children than the present
birth rate showed. The vital stats
tics of state like Massachusetts
show that there the average native
American family of native American
descent has so few children that the
birth rate has fallen below the death
rate This, of course, means race sui
eide and it ought to be understood that
If after q while there are no children
to 60 to school the question of their
health in school would not even be
academic"
Elimination Of the Fittest.
Continuing, Mr.. Roosevelt says:
1.-THE greatest problem of civilization
Is to be found in the fact that the we'll
to do families tend to die out; there
results, in consequence, a tendency to
the elimination, instead of the sur
vival, Of the fittest and the moral atti-
tude which helps on this tendency is
of course, strengthened when it Is
apologized for and praised in maya
zinc like yours.
"Our people could still exist under
all kinds of iniquities in government;
under debased currency; under off,
DIAL corruption; under the rule OF a
socialistic proletariat or a wealthy
ol,garchy.
"All these things would be bad for
us, but the country would still exist.
But it could not continue to exist If
it paid heed to the expressed or i'm
piled teachings of such articles as

SWETTENHAM CASE CLOSED
Definite Refusal to Furnish Additional
Correspondence.

London, May LIN giving def
mite, final refusal to furnish the house
with further correspondence ex-
changed between the ex-governor of
Jamaica, Sir Alexander Swettenham,
and the colonial office the under Sec
rotary for the colonies, Mr.. Churchill,
stated In the house of commons that
the only point upon which fault was
officially found with Sir Alexander
was in regard to the propriety of his
letter to Rear Admiral Davis. The
propriety of the governors action in
dispensing with the services of the
American naval contingent was never
called into question and therefore to
set forth the governors reasons for so
doing would not serve any useful pur-
pose, but rather the reverse.
