THE LOYAL TAFT.

Colonel Roosevelt denies that he sought the
aid Of President Taft in his fight against the
Old Guard He explains that the meeting
was arranged by the ubiquitous Griscom
Griscom himself admits that he did it all out OF
his own head. The incident is closed.
Technically true as all this may be and doubt
less Is the practical facts are that Colonel Roose-
welt and Mr.. Taft met They discussed the New
York situation, They took counsel of Colonel
Roosevelts ambition to beat the bosses. All
the moral influence of the administration, Mr..
Taft permitted TO be swung in the scales on the
side of his former friend If Colonel Roosevelt
did not ask the Presidents aid, he got it never
theless in effect
How effective that aid it i shown by the re-
suits in the Sherman and Barnes districts. Both
return Roosevelt delegations to the Saratoga
convention. The "Old Guard, having enlist
ed against it the administration, as we'll as
the personal Roosevelt following, has received
La body blow which it is doubtful that it can
survive. Mr.. Taft goes his way in the "dignifed
silence" which he has never broken except in
the undignifed effort to concliate the ex-Presi-
dents evident belief that he had taken hand
IN his personal quarrel, But Mr.. Tafts in
fuence, as the latest primary results show, is
actively present in New York.
In view of these facts it seems to us that the
country should gain definite impression of
the President a generous friend He is
aborng IN other respects under natural I'M
popularity finding almost constant expression
in every test of popular sentiment. 1t ought
not to be forgotten that in these trying circum-
stances he is displaying a steadfastness and 10y
atty toward one whom he has every reason to
suspect, that is as admirable as in some sense it
is pathetic.
Whatever either of them may say, however
events may shape themselves on the surface the
people feel that it is Roosevelt against Taft.
In his fight on the cold Guard he ex-Pres-
dent puts his political future largely in jeopardy
We contend that despite this fact, the attitude of
the President IN permitting himself to be used
TO the possible detrment of his natural ambi-
tTon Is manifestation of personal loyalty in
politics as fine as it is unusual
The Richmond Virginian. (Richmond, Va.) 1910-1920, 1910-09-22
THE pork BARREL.

In asserting that in the future he will use the
veto upon such waterway Improvement bills as
may give too much evidence of pork barrel in
tcntion, President Taft announces a policy that
should meet with the hearty support of the
country at large. The annual barrel" has been
growing reproach upon the honesty of Con-
gressional intention toward a system of internal
improvements that is now everywhere recognized
as among the vital needs of immediate progress.
l. has resulted III the dissipation of energy and a
waste of resources inexcusable in view Of the i'm
mense amount necessary to put waterway I'M
provcments in condition where they will ma
terialy affect the ends of commerce.. In order to
satisfy numerous demands, the ''piecemeaf' pol
icy has caused a distribution of appropriations
necessarily resulting in undue delay in the COM
pletion of really needful projects.
In advising comprehensive and practical sys-
TEN, we rake it that the President has in mind
highest state Of efficiency the waterways already
existing. Navigable streams ought to be made eff
fectvelv navigable, before streams that are not
navigable receive attention looking to making
them So Existing water highways should be
put in position to carry their proper burden of
traffic before it should be attempted to create new
highways Uf inns character. Natural ndrD0fS
ought to be deepened to world commerce, before
artificial harbors ought to be considered. Ports
that are hampered for lack OF facilities should be
recognized before places that are only ports po-
entiallv. The system of waterways is so vast, its
Improvement so vital to the commercial advance,
ment Of the country, that the strctest economical
principles constitute one of the cearest duties Of
Congress.
Much as the average Congressman likes to re-
port that he has "gotten something for his
District, the need fog comprehensive waterways
! improvements is one that is of too national a
scope 10 permit continuance of checker playing
with appropriations Ii is need so important
to be met that it ought never again to he possible
for the chairman of the committee charged with
its provision to be politician from the high
lands, instead of thoughtful economist from a
people living with the problem. If Congress
must have pork" it should find it elsewhere than
at the expense of the nope of commerce of the
country at large.
The Richmond Virginian. (Richmond, Va.) 1910-1920, 1910-09-22

the peculiar organization of the American gov
ernment with its many States and cities, 1t
follows that the only practical and safe rule
would be a guaranty of protection equal to but
not the superior of the protection afforded citi-
zens of this country itself. To say that the gov
eminent becomes responsible in money damages
for any foreign citizen who happens to become a
victim of a criminal act when in this country Is
to keep the country itself open to constant an
noyance and possible peril.
The New Orleans mob lynched several Grim
lnals of the worst type Of secret criminal or
ganization. It was goaded into frenzy by re-
pcated crimes. 1t was rising of the community
III defense of its safety. Under such circum-
stances the government. with excessive timldlty,
permitted itself to take the essentially false posi-
non OF rcsponsibility for the act of individuals
meeting crime with crime. Had the question
arisen at this day. in time of greater strength
and power, the decision would have possibly
been different and the precedent would not have
been set Il remains menace to peace which
will be best settled only when diplomacy shall be
called upon to again follow the precedent or
definitely repudiate it.
The Richmond Virginian. (Richmond, Va.) 1910-1920, 1910-09-22

necessarily abundant. Passions, when the ques-
ton of interfering on the one hand with old
natural rights and encroaching on vested inter
ests on the other Is concerned, easily aroused.
In such situation trouble even bloodshed, might
easily arise. Ia taking course designed 10 dct-
nteiy establish rights while at the same time pre-
serving peace, the State has acted the wise and
cooheared part. There i, enough bad blood
the situation itself to cause caution lest official
action further incite it.
The question ut bottom Of the oyster contro-
versy seems in the main TO be question of bound
aries between leased oyster beds and natural
rock. The charge of the planters is that the
tongers invade their property The contention
Of the tongers, thai the paters have cncroached
on their rights by 5ndulv extending their stakes
10 cover the natural rock. In times past both
of these complaints have, a. We understand IT.,
been justified by tie facts. They Elay both be
justified III the present tle.le No doubt 1t Is
true il this ins anct, il is most generally true,
that there are rights and aliases on either side.
That being true tha proper course of the author
ities Is to do justice and equity. 1t would be a
calamity If tbcy should proceed with undue SER
verify, or fail to act effectively, upon the &c
pqrte statement Of either laction
Few people understand the problems Of fish
and oysters and their prc-er2aton and use III
industry, The industry itself is one that is
naturally isolated, ~ we have said, the ques-
tions growing ont of it are of the most com
plicated sort In such circumstances ha5ty ac-
ton would have been all but criminal. The ac-
tion that is taken is at the cost OF three days
operations; 1t may save much trouble, many
breaches Of the peace perhaps more than one
life that would otherwise be sacrificed. The
tongcrz' occupation is to great extent at stake.
The planters property is involved. Both sides
in the main consider that they are defending
their clear rights. In calling truce pending
an accurate survey and determination of the dis
puted lines it seems to that the State authori-
ties are only doing what is wise-more than
that what is humane
