.TAFT'S BROAD CRAFTSMANSHIP.

Americans have President In the
White House who understands that
the Pacific ocean is the great field of
the greatest future activities of the
American people.
This may be truism TO anyone
who knows Mr.. Taft, but 1t seems
that the digest of the Presidents
message that was presented to our
readers TUESDAY makes this fact
more impressive than any public ut
terances from the White House in re-
cent times.
Development of Pearl Harbor, its
rortifcatiOn, also the fertilization of
the Panama canal and measure to
build up the American merchant mar
Inc are cardinal points in the mes
sage, showing that the President be-
llevCs that we should carry our own
great commerce, also establish DOM
mating lines of communication, and
these must be protected at all times.
This of course applies to Ameri-
can activity In all oceans, but more
especially to the Pacific where our
country has taken leading position
and must do something more agrees
sive than is now necessary on the At
lantic to hold its own and establish
permanent authority and control
II is significant of the Presidents
purposes that in reducing the general
expenses OF administering the gov.
eminent he urges with especial vigol
the measures that bear particularly
on the necessities of our progress In
the Pacific. This he does without sac
rificing the interests of the country
In It's domestic development or the
tulfilment of its proper destiny In any
other part of the world.
Perhaps the Congressman from the
interior districts will not appreciate
what a grand work President Taft Is
doing for his country in consistently
Hontesting for ships to carry on
commerce and other ships to protect
our commerce. but the President is
nevertheless displaying broad states
manship which even the back coun,
tryman and the peace crank will und
erstand II they have the good forum,
o live during the next ten years.

When All Retreat Is Cut OFF, Then

Young men often make the mistake

retreat If things go too hard, says ORR

zine. No one can call out his greatest
reserves, do the greatest thing pos
sible to him, while he knows that If
the battle gets too hot he has a line of
retreat still left open. Only when
there is no hope Of escape will an
army fight with that spirit of des-
peration which gives no quarter.
Many a great general in his march
on the enemy has burned his bridges
behind him, cut off his only possible re
treat, for the :, encouraging eff
