FRIDAY, DECEMBER Is, 1889

president Roosevelt, it seems
to us, deserves a great deal Of
credit for the self-restraint and
prudence which he has observed
in recent weeks in regard to
foreign affairs. Indeed, his be-
havior has been quite comfart-
ing to those who believe that
under no circumstances, short
Of invasion, should the United
States become involved in the
European war.
Mr.. Roosevelt's attitude in
this regard during the last two
months has been so different
from his actions during Septem-
Der and previously that the
change deserves much more com
ment than it has received. Most
commentators have held back,
we suppose, for fear that he
might suddenly change back to
the former direction before the
words could be printed. Indeed,
it is rick we are now running.
1t will be recalled that ever
since the President delivered
the so-called Quarantine" talk
at Chicago in October, 1887, he
gave evidence of being distinct
ly war-minded. In that address
Mr.. Roosevelt reversed h
stand he had taken in the So
called 1-hate-var" speech at
Chautsuqua in August, 1885,
At Chicago he embraced the
idea that the United States had
some kind of obligation to police
the entire world-to put down
the aggressor nations.
For almost two years to q day,
Mr.. Roosevelt pursued h e
course outlined in the Chicago
speech. At every opportunity he
blasted the Vaccinations of the
aggressor nations. He under
took TO persuade the American
people that their firesides and
religions were threatened. He
undertook to depict the checker
board moves Of European powers
aB part of holy wCr and inii-
Gated Chat We could not stand
passively aside and let ciViliZa-
ton be destoyed. Indeed, ne re-
surrected the old chestnut about
the necessity of saving demo-
cracy in Europe.
In that two-yenr period Mr..
Roosevelt made hin famous
Warm Springs declaration Of
last April that he would be bacl,
In the fall if I'VE don't have q
war" He endorsed-accepted as
his own-a newspaper editorial
which interpreted that state
ment to mean that our interests
were tightly bound up with
those Of the British and France.
Finally the European war

Roosevelt became far more ac-

does not seem too harsh.


Hardly q day in September
passed without r.. Roosevelt
taking action or uttering words
which increased the nervousness
of the American people. One day
he warned thot foreign sub
marines had been sighted Off the
coast OF New England. The next
day the submarieo were off the
coast of Florida. Another day he
proclaimed the existence of a
national emergency"-he call
ed a Limited national emergen-
cy," but the word "limited'" did
not oppecr in the proclamation.
Orders we're issued incaesing
the personnel Of army and navy.
Long conferences with army and
navy chiefs held at the White
House. The nevly-created War
Resources Board met in continu-
Gus session. The White House an
nounced another submarine had
been sighted. This was followed
by the freakish story that mys-
FERROUS message indicated the
American ship Iroquis might be
attacked by submarines. Every
day something new was an

fue on the war-mongering fire,
driving to evaporation his more

And, t h n, suddenly during
the first week Of October all of

press confererece NJ. Roosevelt
