IN THE FAR SOUTH.
if course we do not know what,
Theodore Roosevelt is going lo
talk about while on his lecturing
lour in South America; hut we
know Mr. Roosevelt's candor; we
know his habits of thought; we
know he is unafraid when his
own opinions are involved; we
know reasonably well conditions
as they now exist in South and
Central America, and we have an
idea that Mr. Roosevelt, with
characteristic foresight, is
plunging into ail atmosphere
charged with many interesting
possibilities; and we know, too,
that the fame of the man, and his
personal popularity in some of
the countries of South America,
due, very largely, to the Klihu
Hoot, v isit to those countries, will
insure him a good hearing wher
ever he may go in the far South.
Whether (he result of Mr.
Roosevelt’s visit will lie to
strengthen the lines of agreement
between Ihe United Stales and
the countries of South America,
or to sharpen Ihe lines of dif
ference. we do not, know, for we
have no means of accurately
measuring Ihe effect of his
frankly vehement style of utter
ance upon the warm and more or
less explosive temperaments of
those countries.
When Mr. Roosevelt leaped out
of Ihe jungles of Africa into Ihe
tamer atmosphere of Khartoum,
he at once began a series of
brilliant speeches destined lo end
in a frank talk to the French on
race suicide, and a scolding lec
ture of (treat Britain on some
of the colonial abuses of Ihe
the kingdom. II was character
istic of the man and the mnsl
natural thing in the . world for
him to do. Nor is it unreason
able to assume that lie will, with
equal candor, speak lo the peo
ple of South America concern
ing |hose problems which be re
gards are peculiarly and particu
larly close lo them; about our
view, and their own, of Ihe Mon
roe doctrine and the Hrago prin
ciple: about their institutional
instability and recurring disor
ders; about the unwisdom of
some of their leaders; Ihe lack
of governmental good faith: Ihe
looseness with which they regard
their pecuniary obligations; their
habit of relying upon Ihe United
Stales to shield them, in moments
of distress, against Kumpean ag
gression, or al least against Ku
ropeau chastisement. and then
despising us because we claim
the right and have the power to
do it, and ahmii u number of
other things of equal .nielli to
them.
How these thing's will resl up
on our more or less mercurial
neighbors we do not know; but
we are cerlnin al least that the
presence, the doings and the say
ings of Ihe former president in
South America may develop some
not, uninteresting situations and
possibililies.—Seattle Sun.
THE PRESIDENT’S POLICIES.
President Wilson admits I lull
he is disappointed over the delay
in I he enactment of a tariff loll,
bn| lie insists that ledh the larill
and currency measures must h(‘
adopted before I be special ses
sion adjourns, ami there are oth
er big <|Ueslions that must he
taken up at the regular session,
issues on which I lie Democratic
party has pledged action.
The tariff and currency are
considered Hie most important, al
least, Hie disposition of I hem is
considered essential before much
can he done Inward carrying out
the administration program with
reference to other issues.
In the Senate and in the House
there are senators and represen
tatives anxiously wailing (lie mo
ment when consideration will he
given I heir Dills providing for
government construction, and
ownership of railroads in Alas
ka. There are other Alaska
problems and with them some
conservation problems which
must be solved as satisfactorily
as l he Democrats can solve them
before the 'party’s work along one
line wili be complete.
It will take a long time to dis
cuss Alaska policies and to put}
them into llnal legislative form
for I he president’s signat ure.
Alaska, however, even if it keeps
up its trouble-making record of
the past, will not lake one-third
of the time of congress that will
be given to the rancorous sub
ject of the trusts. Mr. Wilson
believes that it is possible to
force things back upon a strict
competitive basis. Some of the
members of his party do not
agree with him. The Republi
cans are content to let the trusts
have their own way.
With the many minds on the
trust (jueslion there are bound
to be many words before amend
ments to t he existing laws can be
sanctioned by the ruling major
ity in congress. The tariff, the
currency, Alaska, conservation,
the Philippines and the trusts,
and these are not all.
The president clearly is right
in demanding that the larilf and
currency measures be disposed of
at the present special session and
the way paved on action for oth
er big problems. The Republi
cans who are pursuing the pol
icy of delay and obstruction are
doing so with the evident purpose
of deferring action which may
interfere With their pet trusts.
They are, at the same time, mak
ing it plain to the country that
they are placing politics above
the people’s welfare.
