BEGINS LONG TRIP.

NEW YORK, Sept. 2.-Professing
complete confidence in the outcome of
the fight which he is waging, Col.
Roosevelt left here today on his H.
900 mile tour which will take him
clear to the Pacific coast and back to
New York and into about 35 states.
Travelling in special car to which
was attached another carload of news
paper reporters, the Colonel got under
way on his long continental swing at
8:03 O'Clock. At that hour he left for

during the absence, the colonel will
be in close touch with headquarters
with his party in New York and Chi

place after leaving Springfield, Mass,
he will be joined by Colonel Cecil Ly-
on, of Texas, who fought so valiantly
for the colonel at the national Repub-
lican convention at Chicago. From
time to time also, the colonels en-.

gressive leaders who will ride with the
colonel through their states.
AT ST. Louis when the colonel ar

be filled with visitors from all parts

BRIDGEPORT, Conn, Sept 2.-Col.
Roosevelt today sounded a warning to
Progressive party candidates that they
must live up to their pledges in the
coming campaign. In a four minute
speech at Stanford he said, "If any of
our candidates when elected fail to
live up to any promise he makes l will
take the stump against him. We stand
for applied honesty of principle. We
are going to keep faith with the peo-
pie"
When a member of his audience

A truly stupendous record is that pre-
eented by the annual report Of the Secre-
tary of Agriculture. just published, which
reviews the work OF that department
during the past sixteen years. covering
the incumbency of James Wilson. This
cabinet service of four full administra-
lions without interruption is i'm itself an
extraordinary performance that will prob
ably stand for many years without a
parallel. But not alone in the length OF
his service is the tale of Secretary Will
sons work at the head of the Depart
ment of Agriculture exceptional II has
been identified with and In large part re-
sponsible for an amazing development of
American agricultural prosperity.
In the course of these sixteen years the
Department of Agriculture has grown
from 2444 employees TO 1855 and its
appropriations have increased from
1892 To- S25.OO0OOO In these two
items are to be seen not merely the evil
dences or the expansion OF an organiza-
ton, but the development OF a science.
the science of the soil. In 1897 at the
beginning of the term of sixteen remark
able years that Secretary Wilson will

finish q few months hence, this science
was virtually IN its infancy. Soil culture
while Of course advanced through the
invention Of machinery and the applica-
ton to a small extent of higher intelli-
gence to farm work. remained In the
largest part a matter Of routine based
upon habit.
In 1897 the farmer himself was subject
to many malevolent and destructive
forces, with practically no reserve OF
power and no resource for defense. In
a certain sense he was a gambler with
nature He is now far more independent
He is rich in resources. His crops are
larger. his range of production is wider.
his toll is proportionately lighter and his
margin of safety is greater. His chances
in the game he plays against the weather
are heightened until he is now well nigh
independent.
This result has come through the oe-
velopment of the Department of Agricul-
ture. which has studied soils and climate
and plant life and animal life, has sought
and found remedies for plant and amman
diseases. has disclosed processes Of tillage
previously unknown, has secured the
world for new plants suitable for intro
auction mere, mas eStdUliSHcu CAPNi
and instruction stations throughout the
country. has published and spread broad
cast a volume of information that forms
the most comprehensive and useful IL
brary of agricultural lore ever produced
in the history of the world.
In the most intimate manner the De-
partment of Agriculture has touched the
daily lives and the practical necessities
of the people. and while it has not guided
the course of nature it has guided that
of man to the end that nature has yielded
more bountifully during this past year
than ever before Thus it is singularly
appropriate that Secretary Wilson, whose
service at the head of the Department OF
Agriculture has been practically coter-
minous with it's period of growth and ex-
pansion should close his official career
with bumper crop that exceeds all past
performances and taxes to the uttermost

Wilson, Underwood and Bryan.

Mr. Wilson thinks highly of Mr.. Under
wood. A well justified admiration. The
gentleman from Alabama is very cap
able and attractive man. He is an ex-
perienced legislator. He carries level
head. He is not emotional. He is not
spelbinder. 1t is not easy. if possible at
all. to rattle him. He knows how to
lead. He knows the game Of politics.
Why should not Mr.. Wilson admire him?
The two men met at Trenton a short
while ago, and discussed the political
situation. Probably they talked most
about the tariff. Both are greatly inter-
ested in that subject-Mr. Wilson as the
one who must make recommendations
to Congress for revision of the Payne
law, and Mr.. Underwood as the one who
will lead the House in a legislative re-
Spouse to Mr.. Wilson's message.
But how about Mr.. Bryan? He and
Mr.. Underwood differ on some phases of
the tariff. and have spoken disrespect-
fully Of each other. Mr.. Underwood has
characterized Mr.. Bryan as a meddler.
while Mr. Bryan has characterized him
as a near-republican-a democrat with
protection proclivities. They were far
apart at the time the present Congress
met in extra session.
Now. unless Mr.. Wilson can bring the
two men together on this subject he
takes a risk in expressing his high APP
probation Of Mr.. Underwood. An i'm
preston will be created that he is in
agreement with the Albanian as to tar
If revision, and will work in accord with
him next spring when the new Congress
addresses itself to the Payne law. Mr..
Bryan will not like that, and, whether
in the cabinet or out may try to start
something" And. it is hardly necessary
to say. Mr. Bryan in a scrap is foeman
worthy of anybody's steel or fists
II there is hope Of reconciliation it prob
ably rests on the fact that Mr.. Under
wood will not take the same ground next
spring that he took in the spring Of last
year. That is to say. he will not attempt
to pass In the next House the tariff bills
he has passed in this. Changes will be
made. Changes. 1t is asserted, are nee
essary. How far they will go has not
been indicated But they may go far
enough to enable Mr.. Underwood to meet
Mr.. Bryan, and work with him on the
lines Of the platform Mr.. Bryan wrote
and had adopted at Baltimore.
In the matter Of a tariff for politics
only MIR. Underwood offended Mr. Bryan
In the matter of a tariff for revenue
only-which is now the promised and ex-
pected caper-the chairman OF ways and
means may be able to please the man
who regards himself. however others re-
gard him, as the leader Of the democratic
party.

The Domestic Message.

domestic affairs: The condition of the
country with reference TO business could
hardly be better. The business of
the country is now on a solid basis
Credits are not unduly extended, and
every phase of the situation seems in a
state of preparedness for period of
unexampled prosperity

has been accomplished stands condemned.
and is within three months of it's end.
Strange? Yes, but the thing has hap
pened before. Strange times. strange re-
suits. IL the prosperity described does
not continue: if the policies prescribed at
Baltimore in June and Endorsed al the
polls in November are not applied. or.
after application, do not yield the prom
ised beneficence to the square inch. an
other change will be made and the re-
publicans recalled to power.

A Reserve.

From the New York sun.
The National Guard is intellectually
more efficient today than 1t was at the
time of the Spanish war. 1t stands COM
parison with the regulars fairly we'll, at
least in the larger states, and would need
only three months of experience in the
field to be equally serviceable. 1t must
be remembered, however, that modern
wars are fought quickly, and little time
is given an unprep AIRED nation to mobilize
large forces and to train green men. 1t
should be the military policy of the
United States to make the regular army
and the National Guard nuclei for a
defensive mobilization of half a million

quired to realize this plan, and it would
be essential to keep in touch with the
ex-soldiers of both services and have
them subject to call with the colors.

No Belated Inauguration.

A full exposition of President-to-be Will
sons views as to the inaugural cere-
monies discloses that he does not in truth
favor a separation of the official and un-
official ceremonies in order to hold the
popular celebration of his induction into
Office at a more clement date than March
A. On the contrary, as set forth in the
letter that has just been received from
MIN, he declares that he favors the
formal change of the inaugural date to
the last THURSDAY in April for which
systematic efforts have been made for
years. 1naSmuch. however, as the date
has not been changed. he wants no sepa-
ration of the ceremonies and thus there
will be no attempt TO conduct a belated
popular festival of Inauguration six weeks
after his official induction into office
And so today Gov. Wilson stands in the
front rank of those who are seeking to
readjust the national calendar to the ex-
tent OF making the presidential term be-
gin at a season when there is a fair
chance for clement weather. when the
American people can assemble at Wash
ington in numbers to participate in the
most important of all the national cere-
monies, without fear of discomfort or
injury. This is an important accession
IL would he quite in line of likelihood TO

the passage by Congress of the change
