COL. ROOSEVELT AT
HOME.

The photographs of Colonel Roose
welt as he appeared on arrival IL
New York prove all that has beel
written concerning the hardships O
his trip in the wilds of Brazil
Plainly, the colonel has proved, II
most striking way, that the "Darl
Continent" of today is South Am
erica, not Africa. German, British
French, Belgian, and other ex
plorers, backed by the colonizing am
bitions of their governments, have
covered interior Africa pretty thor
oughly with their trails since tht
days of Livingstone. But South
America has been strangely neglect
ed, perhaps in large part because
there was no field there for coloniz'
ing ambitions. Without much doubt
the Roosevelt expedition will COM
mand such attention to the possibili-
ties of exploratory work in the re-
mote parts of South America that we
shall see a good many expeditions
there in the near future.
This kind of activity demands men
with the experience, wisdom, and
physical capacity that Colonel
Roosevelt possessed. By all accounts,
a party of average men would have
stood small chance of emerging alive
from the experience that the Roose-
velt party saw. Even the redoubt-
able leader of the party comes home
weak and looking almost slender;
but that no permanent harm was
sustained is shown by the statement
that on the voyage home he regain
ed almost half of the weight he had
lost in the wilderness.
Precisely as on the occasion of his
return four years ago from Africa,
the former President will now be a
center of political interest and con-
cern. There will be a tumble of
reports as to plans that doubtless
he has not himself even considered.
He is quoted as saying that nobody
has asked him to run for governor
of New York; but that if he were
asked he would refuse. Beyond
that he has nothing to say. He will
have first to regain his strength,
which the whole country, regardless
of politics, will hope he may very
soon do; and he will require to bring
his information up to date. The
course of events since he has been
out of the country has been a pretty
devious one. Senator O'Gorman de-
MED that he recently summarized
the present political situation with
the observation that "the honeymoon
of the Administration is over" If
he didn't say it, somebody else is
entitled to credit for a very pithy
statement of the whole political sit
cation. The canal tolls problem, the
business outlook of the country, the
Mexican program of the Admins
Iratior, the legislative projects to
v hich the President has set his hand,
he approach of the mid-administra-
ion election, all command attention
to politics; and Colonel Roosevelt
comes home just as the strenuous
are apparently about
10 be staged. That he will be very
arge figure in all these matters
rom now forward cannot be doubted.
He has indicated some refreshingly
rigorous views about Colombia and
he canal, and we shall hear more
from him on those and other SUBJ
Iects.
