WHAT is A DEMOCRAT.

CFrom the New York WORLDLY
Writing to the World from Southern
Pine, N, c., on the question What is
Democrat?" George II. Lacey says:
Il note your period OF Limitation to
the year 1907 and infer from that your
conception of the policies of the party
In power and the public utterances of
President Roosevelt to be essentially
democratic in principle and in purpose
and that through the logic of events
the republican party has so far alb.
sorbed the leaven of democracy as TO
leave no ground for separate and ind
vidual party action. But is this true?"
We think IL is not true. The World
has neither said II nor believes It..
3 Mr.. Roosevelt has carried out many
measures which the World approves
g but he is not a democrat and the re.
publican party is not democratic
z Neither in the smallest degree has
rendered a militant, truly democratic
party superfuous.

rather than too little government, He
knows that the human struggle for
liberty is an unending effort to strike
on the shackles forged by authority
and privilege.
This makes him

Roosevelt.
5. An enemy Of all soclalistic and

9. A believer in a government Of
checks and balances as against a.
government by passion and prejudice.
A democrat who is a democrat
