GROVER CLEVELAND AND
 ROOSEVELT COMPARED

From Appleton's Magazine.
 In writing about MT. Cleveland it is difficult to avoid comparing his char acter with that of President Roosevelt, says a noteworthy article in Appleton's Magazine for March. In each the ele- ment of sturdy honesty stands out sharply. In each there is a devotion to high ideals and a conscientious de- sire for the country's good, regardless of elf-interest. In MT. Cleveland'5 mental operation one is always con scious of plodding intellectually, pro- found but not brilliant; in MT. Roose- welt one is conscious of dynamic ener- gy brilliance of thought, and a nervous eagerness to act, to act at once. MT. Cleveland thinks out a matter with de- liberate thoroughness and when he reaches a conclusion it is there to stay. MT. Roosevelt thinks quickly and acts impulsively, nearly always right, but sometimes with a haste that suggests lack of sufficient preliminary thought.

He alienated the support of his party by sounding the death knell of free sil- yer" and his resolute stand in that crisis saved the credit of the nation. prevented financial ruin, and cost him the favor of the masses and the lead ership of his party. When he left the presidency in 1897 he was practically a man without a party and in the minds of the free-silver element of the nation was utterly discredited and in exile. At the present time the country is just re- covering from panic which will be called the panic of 1907. It has resulted because credits. have grown out of all proportion to the cash supply. Ths country has been on a gigantic finan- cial spree and has been betting away beyond it's resources. The showdown which was inevitable was due to come and it came in MT. Roosevelt's adminis- tration. For this he will have to bear the blame. In the long run he will be Justified for clearing the financial at mosphere, but for some months to come he will be certain to suffer in popular favor as Cleveland did after the panic of 1893. Cleveland did lost the support of the cheap money element; Roosevelt has lost the support of the much -mon- ey clement Y.s
