Righteous Indiqnation.

Congressional resentment Of one
passage in the presidents message is
justified. In most unguarded Ian
guage he spoke of the "chief argu-
ment" for one law enacted by con
gress as being a desire to prevent
investigating Criminals in the legis-
lative branch" The act in question
was n regulating the use Of secret
service agents. In line with many
other similar enactments it merely
sought to limit the executive depart
ments in the spending of public mon
ey and the detail of public employees.
President Roosevelt signed the law
and made no protest at the time. He
has since discovered, apparently, that
it has the effect of putting a legal
hedge about his benevolent activities,
and breaks out in abusive and insult
ing words, for which congress, it is
confidently stated, is going to rebuke
him, while asserting it's own dignity,
by some form of joint resolution or
protest. But the president will have
a ready answer He will merely need
to assert that this is another attack
upon him by Wall street. Then all
will be clear, and the western huzzas
will be heard once more.-New York
Evening Post.

HAVE A RIGHT TO KNOW.
People Justified in Demand for Liaht
on Panama Deal.

indianapolis News: Mr.. Cromwell
denies with great po%sitiveness some.
thing that has never been charged.
when he says that he is positive that
not a man in public life in America, in
OR out Of congress-, ever had the least
pecuniary interest in the Panama
canal" That charge has been made
by no one. He is, however, less strong,
when he says that he does mot know
and never has known of any Amer
lean citizen who has ever dealt in any
shares of the new Panama canal com.
pany Or the shares or bonds Of the
old company" To say that one does
not know of a thing is hardly the
same as denying it. The question is.
as 1t always has been, who got the
money? The answer to that will show
whether any Americans got any of it
by reason of their investment in canal
securities for the purpose of unload
ing them on the government at fancy
prices, prices far in excess of what
was paid for them, or of their worth.
This phase of the case does not seem
to interest either the president or Mr..
Cromwell. The latter gentleman re-
minds us that he said to the senate
committee that he did mot know what
distribution of the fund had been
made and that he was "in no way
concerned or Interested therein" It
was, he said further, none of his "busi.
ness. personally or professionally, who
were the stockholders or bondholders
of the company" While the president
says that 1.-The United States govern.
ment has not the slightest knowledge
as to the particular individuals among
whom the French government dis.
tributed the sum-" and that this was
the business of the French govern
ment." We think the American people
have q right to know whether or not
the canal property cost them millions
more than it ought to cost, and wheth-
er, If there was any such loot, any
American citizens shared in it.

MUST REMAIN FIRM
ONLY BULWARk OF THE SOUTH
is DEMOCRATIC PARTY.
Section Can Not Afford to Abandon
Its Solidarity and Throw Itself
Upon the Mercy Of the
Republicans.

Mr.. Taft is the first of Republican
presidents, or presidents-elect. who
has had the courage and the candor
to admit that the south has been right
in placing lawful qualifications upon
the suffrage in order to " states,
| counties and municipalities from dom
ination by ignorant and debased cleo
! torateS.
In the face of many threats of fed
eral Interference and of reduced rep
| resentation in congress, the south has
persevered in this policy because it
knew it was right, and because it was
confident that the entire country
would in time, concede that it was
right.
Mr.. Taft is the first Republican pres
ident, or president-elect, formally to
concede that the country needs, in its
legislation and administration, the &C.
tive participation of that element of
the southern people which has persist
emily adhered to the Democratic par
ty. President Mckinley, it is true,
cordially invited the military patriot
ism Of the south to his aid in the
Spanish wal and gave it liberal recOg-
milton, but there he stopped.
In the reform policy to which he
Is pledged, and which he proposes to
carry out in his administration, Mr..
best wisdom and patriotism of the
country, in whatever section it may be
found. But in the appeal for southern
support which he has made before the
North Carolina society of New York,
the coming president vaults lightly
over many obstacles that will not be
so easily overcome in the concrete.
In the presence Of conditions that
are not fully understood anywhere
else in the country, the south will
hesitate long before abandoning it's
solidarity to throw itself upon the en-
der mercy Of the Republican party.
There is the negro vote, without which
in al election that is at all debatable,
the Republican party cannot carry
New Jersey and the states north of
the Ohio river. In order to %propitiate
this vote the Republican party, in
every national election, makes boast
full promises Of what it is going to do
for the negro, and the fear is ever
present in the south that a Republican
administration may interfere, through
its interstate powers, to disturb con-
ditions there by trying to make these
promises good.
It may be confidently predicted that
southern Democrats, and Democrats
from other parts of the country, will
support President Taft in all bene-
fetal measures that consist with Dem
ocratic principles. But the south is
not going to break ranks and aban-
don the flag of the party which has
been, and is, it's only bulwark of de-
fense.-St. Louis Republic.
