THE SPOILED CHILD.
(New York world.0


 TT WAS unnecessary for Mir. Roose-
 welt to issue formal statement
 asserting that everything is wrong and that when return from abroad I shall actively take up the political situation" It is NIT. Roosevelts ard. ent conviction that everything must be wrong unless it is done by him or bossed by him.
 Mr. Roosevelt is the spoiled child of American politics. He has been lat. tered and applauded and coddled and deifed until he has come to believe that not only the government of the United States but the government of all the separate States is his personal plaything
 The Presidency is his tavorite toy. The White House is his private prop, erty, Every drop of blood in his veins revolts at the thought of anybody else being the Chief Magistrate of the Ma. tion. Like the Turk. he can tolerate no brother near the throne or on the throne. All his instincts of govern. ment are Oriental.
 Other President after retiring from the White House have usually either
The Alaska daily empire., 1914-06-23

given honest support to their success sors or refrained from deliberately em. barrassing them. Even Andrew John. son had too fine sense of the dignity of his former office to assail Grant pub licly: but all successors look alike to MT. Roosevelt. A progressive Demo crat like Mir. Wilson is no less often- sive in his eyes than a standpat Repub- lican like Mir. Taft. It is not policies or programs or theories of govern ment that arouse MT. Roosevelt's an- tagonism. It is the fact that somebody else has a great office that he once held and is determined to recover.
 The same benevolent theory of polit- ical despotism is spread over the en- tire country. Goyernorships and Sena- torships in themselves make no appeal to Mir. Roosevelts personal ambition, but nobody may be Senator or a Governor who is unacceptable to him. The Rooseveltian attitude is so pre- posterous that 1t would be ridiculous ir it did not now and then have it's very serious side.
 The blame. however. does not rest so much upon Mir. Roosevelt as upon the clements of the American people who have so long inflamed his vanity and egotism. Really great men like Washington and Lincoln are not spoil ed by adulation. but in large doeses 1t is dangerous medicine for smaller men. Mir. Roosevelt's egotism was always abnormal, but it has grown enormous ly on the food that popular folly and popular hysteria have fed to it. A much better balanced man than he might easily have been upset by the hero worship of which he has been the object.
 It is a pity that Mir. Roosevelt has been so spoiled. He has unusual en- ergy and unusual capacity for public service. His influence. if 1t were not so wholly selfish. could be a powerful instrument of public good. If he were great enough to trample his own ambi- ton under foot and make himself dis interested counsellor of the American people on men and measures a career of extraordinary public usefulness would be open to him. Instead, he has deliberately chosen to make him. self a continuing menace to rational political progress.
