TWO EXTREMES-TAFT BETWEEN

In the present campaign there are
many important progressive policies
on which all the parties, and all the
factions of the two great parties, are
agreed.
The election will be determined,
however, on the point of difference
between the distinctive policies for
which the two leading candidates
stand. and the measure of confidence
the voters shall repose in these re-
spective leaders.
The country has, without question,
broken away from the conservative
traditions to which 1t was long attach
ed. Under the leadership of Presi-
dent Roosevelt the people have assert
ed progressive principles. Higher
standards of political and business
life have been established and and are
being insisted upon by the peopl., re-
CARELESS of party lines.
But there are two extremes con-
tending against this strong progress
sive tendency. One is the reactionary
sentiment, held and fostered by spe-
cial interests, seeking to maintain or

TWO FLEETS IN MANILA BAY.

War has its romance as we'll as its
tragedies. Dewey's victory in Ma
Mia bay will be cherished In the
hearts Of patriotic Americans SO long
as pride in the flag endures. But
since the victory of one feet or army
means a defeat of another army or
fleet, and since all battles cost hui
man lives and infiict suffering, pride
OF conquest, even In righteous cause
is Tempered in the minds of the mer-
cifui. The enduring satisfaction that
lies in the victory of Manila is that
the government of the United States,
through its naval policy, was prepar-
ed for a war that tbs claims of hu-
manity imposed on 1t.
And now. ten years after the bat
tie of Manila. another American fleet,
the product of Intervening years,
splendid in its proportions, it's equip
ment and its manning, representing
the most modern ideas in naval de-
tense, is anchored in Manila bay, not
In menace of any foe, but as the best
possible assurance to the Filipinos
that they will be protected from re-
turn of oppressive sovereignty, from
which Dewey rescued them.
The navies of the world are an in
contestable admission that the nations
OF the earth have not yet progressed
to the heights of unarmed peace; but
so long as the nations collectively find
the best guarantee of peace in going
armed, just so long it is the duty
of the United States to keep itself
prepared to defend its own. With
this policy Of progressive prepared
ness the whole people are in accord.
1t should be a source of great salts
faction to all who contemplate with
regret or misgiving the necessity for
maintaining large navies, that the adj
ministration which has done most to
perfect our modern feet has alsp
given to the United States the place
of first rank in restoring and preserv-
ing international amity.

EAST SIDE RAILWAY.

The Times does not presume to
speak for the city council Of East
Grand Forks, nor even to suggest its
course in matters of public concern.
But 1t believes that the street railway
company should have liberal char
ter in the Minnesota city. 1t bases
this statement upon the fact that the
commercial and industrial interests
Of the two cities are identical. What
serves to promote the prosperity OF
Grand Forks will likewise serve to
promote the prosperity of its sister
city. For this reason a policy which
presupposes the mutual efforts of the
two cities Is decidedly best for both.
So far as the street railway is con-
cerned, it would hardly be complete
without the line on the east side.
Scores of men who find employment
in the railroad yards and shops and
in the lumber mill on that side live
on this side, while some of those who
live on that side Of the river find en-
ployment in this city. The building
of loop to the points where these
men are employed will be an advan-
tage to them and will serve to enlarge
the opportunities for building up both
cities SO far as these enterprises are
concerned.
East Grand Forks is far too pro-
gressive community to be mere
village or ever side light for Grand
Forks. 1t has the enterprise and the
ability to place it in the front of the
cities Of northwestern Minnesota. 1t
can build up only by the same means
as Grand Forks can build up. Its
residence streets must be extended
farther from the business section, and
this makes the demand for rapid
communication between such resi-
dence and business districts imper-
alive.
The granting of franchise by the
East Grand Forks council will mater
tally. aid Grand Forks in its present
stupendous strides of municipal prog
ress.

ARESUME OF
ROOSEVELT

President Roosevelt has earned the
paign. The people have given him
that right and he has accepted it and
exercised it.
The exigencies of the time make it
pertinent to recall to the public mind
some things of very recent history
which the enemies and critics OF Mr..
Roosevelt are doing their utmost to
make the people forget.
Four years ago the citizens OF the
United States gave Theodore Roose-
welt the greatest vote of confidence
and approval ever bestowed on can
didate for the presidency.
Since that memorable election,
which will go into history as one Of
the most dramatic romances Of self
governing peoples, Mr.. Roosevelt has
done nothing to forfeit the confidence
reposed in him in 1904.
And If he had not voluntarily chosen
to limit his tenure OF Office by the
present term, constituting the unfin-
ished Mckinley term as his first and
respecting the traditions against the
third term. Mr.. Roosevelt unquestion-
ably could have been and would have
been the Republican nominee of this
year.
In spite of this self-imposed limit
alton, in spite of the word he had
given, the president was subjected
to the most tremendous pressure ever
withstood by any man in American
public life to bring him to disregard
this resolution and accept another

restore selfish privileges, and typified
in the attitude of Sneaker Cannon.

restore selfish privileges. and typified
in the attitude of Speaker Cannon.
The other is the more or less gen.
eral demand for radical advances, the
readiness of a considerable number
to hurry forward into new and exper-
mental undertakings. This extreme
is represented by the new doctrines
advanced by Mr.. Bryan-doctrines of
doubtful constitutonality and Of
certain inequity.
The best reason for believing that
extreme radicalism will meet another
defeat is that it has already met two
big defeats under the same leader.
The best way to Judge of Mr.. Bryans
new doctrines is to review his absn-
doned policies. The country refused
to put it's faith in him in 1896 and
again in 1900. Its judgment was good
then, and that judgment should be
strengthened now by the vindication
of the peoples decisions in the two
previous contests.
Mr.. Taft takes his stand on the pro-
gressive policies of the Roosevelt ad-
ministration, which has been assail-
ed by the reactionaries in the rear
and the radicals in advance. He is
the man who represents progressive
government, which lies between the
doctrine of reaction and the doctrine
of radicalism.
Bryan, through the dangerous poll
cies he has advanced in the past-then
repudiated by the people-and
through the new experiments he now
proposes, represents destruction.
Taft, taking his stand on the Roos-
evelt administration, which everybody
understands, and backed by his record
of great, practical accomplishments,
is the foremost progressive leader Of
the time, and as distinguished from
the other two types, represents con-
struction.
