it about all that it has done.
''Tke President IN his last message says
that before an investment is made the
purchaser should inquire into the man
agement of the road. What revery and
dream this is! How is 1t possible for
trustee. acting for his wards ir cham
Gerry, or for anyone else, to conduct an
investigation into the management OF
the great trunk lire systems of the Unit
ed States?
THE diagnosis of the President IS per-
fectly correct. but in most OF the in
stances he cites his remedies are either
unlawful or inlpracticable. From the vio-
lent fervor of his utterances. there is an
idea running through the public mind
that he has come to the conclusion that
every man engaged in g large business
enterprise is malefactor and that every
good citizen of the land ought to spead at
least ore term in the peniten:iary.'
Mr.. Reyner closed with a declaration
that the financial question Should not be
regarded as party issue.
Turning to Senator Aldrich. Senator
Eayner asked why the committee had
stricken from the bill the provision re-
quiring the banks. located outside of re-
serve or central reserve cities. to keep
reserve equal to Is per cent. on their
deposit liabilities and hold at all times
at least two-thirls Of such in lawful mon
ey. Tie chairman of the finance COM
n;ittee replied:
There was great opposition to this
from country banks. especially In the
South and West, and the committee let
it go to avoid discussion
He believed that was a subject which
should be taken up in a separate bill.
Mr.. Eayner wanted to know who asked
for this change.
Looking toward the Democratic side.
Mr. AlGrich said Senator Taliaferro of
Florida had moved to strike it ont.
An amendment to the Aldrich cur
rency bill was introduced by Senator
Tillman. It provides that the emer
gency currency to be issued under the
terms of this measure shall not be
withdrawn from circulation more rap
idly than at the rate Of $9,000.O00 a
month, which is in accordance with
the present law. The pending bill re-
moves this limitation. Mr.. Tillman OBJ
jected to the banks being permitted to
initiate the currency by issuing $780,
100000 in bank notes and then to con-
tract it at will.

ing about the peace OF the world than

these circumstances is there room iof
doubt that Abraham Lincoln would nave
approyed the policy OF Mckinney ano
Roosevelt In maintaining our position as
a world power, in increasing the size OF
our navy SO that when we do intervene In
international affairs we may exercise an
influence commensurate with our great
ness as a nation?
ITjnally. can there be any doubt where
Abraha Lincoln would have stood In the
issues which peculiarly distinguished the
administration Of Theodore Roosevelt? /
refer to the struggle which he and his
administration have made for the elimi-
nation from our business and political
fabric of the corrupting influences Of the
unlawful business combinations and the
| dernoralizing effect of disobedience to law
by our great railroad and transportation
companies.
1.-THE one thing that distinguished Lin
coin in all his life was the contention In
favor Of the equal administration and
protection Of the laws. From the soles
of his feet through all that long frame
to the top Of his head. he was demo
crat in the true sense of the word and
opposed to privileges and class immunity.
He was not an enemy Of wealth lawfully

aged internal improvements and. OF
course, favored prosperity, developed by
business enterprises and the combina-
ton of capital. but he always exalted In
tie consideration OF every Issue the
rights of the individual and especially OF
the humber members Of society VINO
were least able to protect themselves.
'.Therefore, We may know with certain

combinations the illegal privileges and

large body Of Frenchmen who were inn
bued with liberal principles and who had
not re!inquished the hope Of seeing them
triumph again some day in France and of
another republic being established on the
other shore of the Atlantic. as it has.
When the war came the ambassador
said tie emotion was considerable
throughout France, and, he added: with
out saying a word of disparagement about
those whose sympathieS were with the
South, the brilliant, valiant South. which
after all was a part Of America-it can
be observed that from the beginning to
the last the highest minded in the coun-
try were ardentiy in favor of the main
tenance of the union; and they did not
remain Idle friends: they showed their
sympathy in their writings and their

as IL she had lost the best Of her own
citizens; at the death of Lafayette Pres

country was unanimous in the expression
