 MT. Roosevelt, with all the intensity oi his nature, asserts and reasserts: 'l am progressive. l could not be anything else; indeed. as the years go by. l become more, and not less, radically prosfesr slve." And MT. Taft, a part or ms aa- ministration and his successor In oilice' presents 1t as his chief claim for electlol and reelection that he-not only stalius for these policies, but will make 1t the end and aim of his administrator u carry them into effect.
 I have said that the democratic party was founded upon the principle or con servatism. It was built upon Mir JeHer- sons great idea that the government must be kept conservative to the pur poses of the government, and as opposeu to the republican policy which holds, as well expressed by MT. Watterson. that wealth must be created by legislation, and, having been thus created, that II must be fostered and protected by iesls- lation."
 But now again comes MT. Roosevelt and to make the policy or patefhallsii supreme and without limit says We grudge no man a fortune which repre-  exercised with entire regard to the wei. fare of his fellows. ,SBut the fortune mus, nus, not only be honorably obtained ana wei, used: it is also essential that 1t should not represent necessary incident or widespread, even though partiai eeohoi',ie I,i. privation.

JOHN 3. KNOX AFT TER RADICAL ROOSEVELT Takes Him to Task for New
 Nationalism ARTICLE IN HARPER $ MT. knox, In the City Yesterday, Dis- cusses Roosevelt's Change of Def- nition of Doctrine He Calls
 New NationaIism

An article by John B. Knox of Annis- ton, which appeared in last weeks Har- per's Weekly, on "Conservatism Versus Radicalism." in reply to Theodore Roose- velt, is attracting widespread notice. MT. Knox, who was in the city yesterday, laughingly remarked:
 The article was sent first to the Out look, of which MT. Roosevelt is the asso- ciate editor, and declined. While it does not so appear on it's face, it is, in fact, a reply to his article in recent number of the Outlook entitled The Progressives, Past and Present.
 T must have put my finger on the weak place in MT. Roosevelts armor, for the latter in his speech subsequently, made at Syracuse. N Y, felt compelled to shift bis position, and to give a new definition of his doctrine which he calls the new nationalism.
 T have convinced Mr. Roosevelt, out of his own mouth, by quoting from his article in the Outlook on socialism. In apparent reply, and after shifting his ground and adopting another definition of his doctrine, MT. Roosevelt says
 .' TO paraphrase the words of Patrick Henry, if this be socialism, make the most of it!'

.Happy HOOIigan"

The stage version of the adventures of Happy Hooligan, the happy -go- lucky hobo of the Sunday supplement- pleased an immense audience at the Riiou last night. The audience was the largest that has been seen at Bir- mingham theatre this season and ap- peared delighted with the performance.
 The many specialties appeared to amuse the people "out front" and there were numerous curtain calls for the actors. Happy" was there" with his characteristic exclamations but he was the only familiar character on the stage. The nephews and Gloomy Gus were conspicuous by tn cir absence.
 The play deals with the adventures of Happy" and is in three acts. The lines give many opportunities for the comedians and the comedy stunts are pleasingly interspersed with song and specfalties.
 Taking the actions of the audience as a basis of criticism there was nothing left to desire in the performance last night.

Alderman Mohr Sees How

Roped in Council.
LABOR MAN PROTESTS

= Charging City Engineer RaIston
with bad faith, disregard Of In.
structions and with having hood.
winked the city council in the mat
ter Of making preparation for the
building Of the Monroe street
bridge, Councilman Mohr said that
Ralston was too smooth for the
council and that he had drawn them
into the day labor plan Of building
the bridge until II was a question
whether or not the city can re-
cede.
councilman Lambert charged
that the revised plan of the bridge
as submitted by Ralston was not
the one approved by Professor
Burr This was the first time the
Monroe street bridge plans had
reached the council in their amend
ed condition and with the plans
came a request from the engineer
that he be permitted to build the
bridge on the day labor plan and
placing his estimate of the cost at
$4,000.
Councilman Schaffer was for let
ting Ralston go ahead.
A committee from bridge and
structural iron workers union was
on hand to protest against permit
ting Ralston to build the bridge by
day labor. John Gore. secretary
of the union, says: "This talk of
the day labor plan being for the in
terest of the workingmen is all
bosh. Ralston is an enemy of la
Dor and will run in every scab
workman in the country If he has
his way. He says he will build
the bridge for $4,000 but If the
city gets out short of 100000 to
100000 1t is lucky. 1t will be
cheaper in the long run for the
city to lose every dollar it has so
far invested in the bridge than have
Ralston build it.
Under the plan Ralston has
adopted to remove the cid bridge
and build the new one there will
be loss of life and heavy damage
suits against the city, compared
with which the $4,000 paid on the
Washington street bridge will be
a small item. If the city permits
Ralston to go ahead with this job
1t will regret it as he is wholly
incompetent to carry on the work"
The council deferred action on
the matter until 1880 this after
noon.

ST. PAUL, Feb. 9.-Maud Allen
is recovering today from a series
of distressing experiences on the
Auditorium stage that ended in her
partial collapse and made it neces-.
sary for her to be carried to her
dressing room.
Miss Allen announced that she
would perform several of her
dances without music and permit
her audience to guess what they
were. Twice she essayed dance
between the regular numbers of
the program, but each time the or
chestra responded to the audiences
demand for an encore and upset
her plan. Three times during the
evening she complained to the,
leader about the tempo. Finally
the nervous strain became too
great, and as she finished her
blue Danube waltz" she tainted.

but the question of whether it was
legal to advertise the job for let
ting "as whole or in part" must
first be settled. The idea of
awarding the job in sections was
conceived to favor small contrac-
tors that might want to bid on it.
The matter was referred to the

opinion of the corporation counsel.
