Ex-senator Elihu Roots ringing speech be-
fore the New York state Republican convention
stands not only as the sternest, the most cut
ting Indictment of the Wilson administration
yet placed before the country, but as the real
rkeynote Of the Republican campaign
Too long for production now in tile columns
of daily newspaper, it is available in some
what reduced form in several Of the weekly and
monthly periodicals. The Review of Reviews
for March gives its most notable passages.
Senator Root S main attack was on the foreign
policies of the Wilson administration, divid-
ing naturally into the attitude toward Mexico
and the attitude toward European nations.
Summarizing it may be stated that he pointed
to series of alleged blunders in Mexico in
GLIDING the Vera Cruz incident and the per-
sistent hostility toward Huerta. His criticism
Of the European mistakes were summed up by
himself as follows:
study Of the adminstratons policy towards Eu
rQpe since July 1sl reveals three fundamental err
rors First the lack of foresight to make timely pro-
vision Tor backing up American diplomacy by actual
assured military ana naval force second the for
feiture OF the worlds respect for assertion of
rights BY pursuin the policy Of making threats and
falling to make them good. Third q loss Of the
moral forces Of tie cvilsed world through failure to
can democracy ii its attitude towards = the terrible
events which accompanied the early stages of the

Senator Root s speech has evoked extremely

WHERE MR.. GARRISON ERRED.
(From the New York World,

From the New York World9
1t is easy to abuse Congress, but the fact re
mains that there was no public support for the
continental army and most of it's advocates
including Secretary Garrison, had damned il
by urging CONSUMPTION as the only true method
of providing the necessary troops. When il
was found that there was no possible chance
to obtain majority in Congress for the cont
mental army, President Wilson wisely refused
to chain his whole defense program to corpse
That would have imperilled everything, and
nobody would have assailed him more bitterly
and more justly for such folly than the men
who. are now attacking him for having taken
the right attitude toward Congress. Had the
president yielded to Mr. Garrison s insistent
demands he must inevitably have broken with
Congress and the chances are strong that there
would have been no Strengthening of the ma
tional defense at all. In trying to coerce Con-
gress he would have lost everything
Congress is-not the Russian Duma. 1t cannot
be kicked into oblivion whenever it refuses to
register the DEGREES of Little Father. If Mr..
Garrison does not know that he has yet to learn
the first principle of republican government.

Many soldier correspondents contributing to
the current discussion take the wholesome
view that the extremists on both sides soldier
and civilian are very few in number, and that
between the two is the overwhelming majority
of people on Oahu, whp appreciate the enlisted
man and are appreciated by him. They point
out the eommonAsense truth that.it is no more
fair to Judge the civilian population by the
critical expressions of few than to Judge tine
soldier population by the faults of few. What
the food of letters is doing is to show tha. as
a whole Honolulu is not against the soldie: =
and that as whole, the soldiers do not want
TO be patronized or petted but to be an integral
md useful part of Honolulu's progress.

case might still be strengthened, for
he wanted the whole story from man
