Roosevelt at Pittsburgh.

When Mr. Roosevelt arraigned the DEM
ocr.tic tariff revision at Pittsburgh last
night he was on safe ground and speak
ing To an audience very much interested
IN the subject The Underwood law has
not reduced the cost of living as prom
,scd. but il has disturbed business condi-
Hons materially. lessened the general
American output. and thrown many men
out of employment. That is not a mat
ter of campaign assertion. but fact es-
tablished by statistics and trade reports.
II is something the democratic party
must meet in the coming campaign; and
the republicans will dwell on it quite as
emphatically as the bull rnoosers.
Likewise is it true. as stated by Mr.
Roosevelt that the democratic trust pro
gram Is under fire and open to much
criticism Indeed. matters stand. II Is
more the Presidents program than ms
partv's Democrats are divided on the
matter The House bills. passed at the
Presidents insistence. are meeting with
opposition in the Senate, and a long de-
hate is foreshadowed. The final shape OF
things if Congress as now seems likely
lesislates at this session, nobody may
with safety predict.
gut Mr.. Roosevelt was far from happy
and from the record in trying to saddle
on Mr.. Penrose and Mr.. Barnes and 9TH
ers who supported Mr.. Taft at Chicago in
1912 responsibility for the election of Mr.
Wilson and democratic Congress Mr.
Penrose and Mr.. Barnes have long been
characterized as bosses. But in their
bossiest days they were valuable ana
successful lieutenants of Mr. Roosevelt
They stood near him, and enjoyed his
confidence and did work for him. The
phenomenal majority of half million
which Pennsylvania threw for Mr.. Roose-
welt in 1904 was mustered by Mr. Pen
rose who received a personal letter OF
thanks for the achievement.
ANY difference between the Penrose and
the Barnes of those days and the Penrose
and the Barnes of 1912 and today? None
whatever except that in those days they
were working for Mr.. Roosevelt, while
in 1912 they worked against him, and to-
day are against him. Leaders worthy of
praise and receiving praise when work
ing for him; dangerous bosses and mer-
iting censure when working against him.
AS for the result of the republican ma
tional convention in 1912, has Mr.. Roose-
welt forgotten the concerted effort to
throw the southern delegates to him.
The country has not. 1t was SO raw
that some Of Mr.. Roosevelt's own sup
porters in the convention refused to pro-
mote the scheme. Contests involving
nearly all of the Taft delegates from the
south had been trumped up. with
view of unseating them and substituting
delegates favorable to Mr.. Roosevelt, and
he stood ready to accept the usufruct OF
the movement But it failed Had Mr..
Roosevelt's nomination been obtained by
those means. that faint would alone have
sent him to defeat.
Mr.. Penrose and Mr.. Barnes did not
control the Chicago convention. What
was done there was approved by ma
jority of the delegates, some of whom
had never been called bosses, and all OF
whom had been Roosevelt men for years.

American Suffrage Militantism.

BY abruptly leaving the east room yes
terday in the course of a ''heckling' or
cross-eXamination at the hands of large
delegation of women who had called in
behalf of equal suffrage. President Will
son emphatically rebuked the adoption of
| methods which. regardless of the merits
of the question at ISSUE SAVIOR too strong
| ly of the militantism of the British suf-
| frage crusade to be acceptable in this
country. The Presidents Discrimination
| % recommend congressional action on
| this subject is well understood. He has
| already made it plain that the silence of
| the Baltimore platform on this subject
precludes him. in his Judgment. from par
| ticipating in the movement for national
enactment. To persist in pressing him
for action, therefore, savors of persecu-
ton and his Impotence yesterday is alto
gether natural in the circumstances
No ground will be gained by the Amer
lean suffragists by the adoption of any
of the methods which in England have
made the cause of the women a reproach
to civilization. Progress is being scored
here along lines of reason and through the
employment of legitimate and logical
practices of persuasion 1t is fair to sup
pose that each year more ground will he
gained, as the states yield to the pres
sure of public opinion and grant the suf-
frage. 1t may be that eventually, per
haps soon, Congress will be induced to
submit a constitutional amendment to the
legislatures for countrywide adoption, al
though, as the President points out state
rights prejudice stands in the way of
such a method of reform. Meanwhile
nothing is to be gained by the advocates
of suffrage through the employment of
radical means or by an attempt to en-
barrass the President when once he has
stated his position as an opponent of fed
eral action.
1t is evident that two lines of policy pre-
vail at present among the suffragists
Separate ORGANIZATIONS are maintained
one representing the conservative and the
other the radical element of the votes
Tor women movement. The division of
such steadily advancing propaganda at
time of measurable success is on the
whole, unfortunate but perhaps it is well
that go long as there is any tendency
toward mlitantisnn on the part of :tnv
number of the American suffragists il
should lead to a separation rather than
suspected by the public at large as 20
tential radicals. The Star has heretofore
urged that the American organization
take strong ground against the British
methods, and possibly now is afforded an
opportunity for such declaration as will
make 1t entirely clear TO the public that
the majority of the women who are seek
ing and working for the vote in this
country repudlate an approach to any
thing savoring of Inilitantism

the Stars and Stripes would not prove
at all disturbing in that quarter OF the
world. On the contrary. it would he an
assurance of stable conditions and pros
perity in the islands.
The assurance has been kept. Peace
has reigned, and the islands have been
prosperous. Development of every kind
has been greater under American control
than ever before. All the leading powers
have been entirely satisfied with our
presence on the scene.
But if the American flag were lowered,
either as a voluntary act on our part, or
as forced measure. Europe would de-
mand a say as to the future. The Phil
ippnes are very valuable. Either Great
Britain. Russia, Germany, or France
would esteem itself fortunate if in undis-
puted control of the archipelago.
So that Japan as an aggressor could
not hope to have its way in that matter.
Even if it seized the islands it could not
hold them in the face of the powerful
protest against Japanese possession that
would be ut once entered.
And then there is to be considered the
fact that the Fiiipinos are not well at
fected toward either Japan or China.
They like America much better. At the
start they gave us some trouble. But
they would give Japan as ruler very
much more trouble and hold out longer.
The great nations were served by us
when we relieved Spain of a burden she
could not longer carry. Spain had lost in
the Philippines as in Cuba. Her power
could not he rc-established The choice
for us was between controlling the
islands. or leaving them to what would
speedily develop into anarchy And an
arChy of course would occasion outside
interference. and then would inevitably
follow a warm controversy about perma-
nent control, with all Europe and Japan
interested in the settlement Of the qucs-
ton.
While we remain in the Philippines or
der and development are certain. Every
body benefits We benefit because we
are discharging a duty. The Filipinos
benefit. because they are advancing all
along the line. And the nations of E.u-
rope benefit. because if the islands were
thrown into the arena as a prize to be
fought for. the lighting might become
terrific.

Mexico.

Coincidental with the announcement
that the A. B. C. mediators at Niagara
Falls have taken an indefinite recess
come two reports from Mexico indicating
that there is little present prospect OF a
successful resumption of the negotiations.
One is that conditions in Mexico City are
well-nign chaotic. with the Huerta gov
eminent on the verge of collapse through
the quarrelng of its members. The other
is that Gen. Villa has executed Gen. An
geles, his chief of artillery, and Exported
candidate for provisional president, on
suspicion of having sought to betray the
constitutionalist cause TO Huerta. The
latter report lacks confirmation, but its
circulation may be taken 10 indicate that
there is friction, at least. between Villa
and Angeles.
There is no substantial reason to expect
solidarity on the part Of the constitu-
tionalists. whose fractional troubles have
been SO frequently brought to light during
the past few weeks. Between Carranza
and Villa there is obviously keen Jealousy,
and on carranza's part suspicion plainly
prevails. Without Villa Carranza cannot
hope to do much in the field. even with
Villa quiescent. save as against an utterly
collapsed federal government With Villa
actively hostile to the first chief" the
constitutionalists cannot hope to gain
Mexico City. With Villa at odds with his
own followers he in turn is weakened, anG
thus the process may continue. with fac.
tons splitting into subfactions
Therein lies the gravest danger in Mex
leo today, that no single dominating fore,

From the Springfield Republican.
One of the tragedies of the commence
ment season is the number of addresses
by eminent citizens of the United
States that have to be sidetracked be
yond the immediate environment of
their delivery. The speakers are at
great pains to prepare orations EN-
bodyins their ripest thought. which are
hopefully sent out in fun to the lead
ing newspapers of the country. I'm
happily. Me punching of this oratory
makes it impossible for the press Il
take note of much that is worthy of its
attention. Hence, during the pas,
weeks these speeches have been like

Japan feel about the future of the Phil

likely.

Bondholders.
From the Cincinnati Times star.

FROM The tlncinnltI Tltnrs- sur.
An American returning from Europe
calls attention to the issuance Of bonds
OF small denominations in France, and
comments upon the influence of the sale
of these bonds to small investors on finan-
cial and political conditions in that coun-
try In France it is usual for government
and municipal loans to be put out in
bonds of 100 francs each. This amounts
to little less than so in American
money These bonds are bought by thou
sands of small capitalists. When "a
French peasant has bought a single 100
franc bond ''he changes his point of view !;
he looks upon life differently. upon social
conditions differently when he has even
a small interest in the government or one
of the great industrial or business COM
panies." We have had some agitation in
Ohio for the issuance of city bonds in
small denominations The idea is a good
one and should be pushed through

A Safe and Sane Fourth.

Public sentiment has changed the an
nual Fourth of July celebration from "A
day of horrors to one of harmless enjoy
ment without detracting from its patri-
otto significance. In fact. the safe and
sane" way of observing the Fourth is
more apt to foster patriotic sentiment
than the old way. which consisted chiefly
of noise and carnage. Baltimore is in
line with the more progressive cities OF
the country in providing for Fourth
of July celebration which promises to be
free from distressing accidents.
