ROOSEVELT ON PATRIOTISM.
Captain F. A. Gourley of this city
writes as follows to a friend from
Nome, Alaska, where he recently went
totake charge of some mining oper. gi would have been easy to
predict what President
Roosevelt would say in a
Fourth of July oration.
He can talk well on many dif. ferent subjects, he can wisely
. discuss the tariff, he has well
. defined and settled views on
--reciprocity, he is a strong believer in American extension
and can give sufficient reasons
for his belief; and he can talk
convincingly on the Panama
canal, the Monroe doctrine
and a score of other important
~ national and international topics; but the subject that comes
_ forth most readily, the one which is nearest his heart and
ations, the date of the letter being
June 20th:
The good ship St. Paul arrived here

There were pieces of ice from the size
of a barrel toa mountain and in all
fantastic shapes. It was by far the
most beantiful. sight Lever beheld, all
moving westward, aud occasionally
you would see a fox or a walrus floating out to sea on a piece of ice. We
picked our way through the openings
nicely and found open water und did
not encounter any more ice until within

which he prefers to talk about is patriotism. When the

the bulletin given out stated that a sudden relapse eccurred;
which resulted in a hasty summoning of the physicians for
consultation.
=a)
Every one knows what his opinions are. He has announcedsthem often enough. They were the subject of many
of his addresses during his California visit. He believes, and
every thinking man agrees with him, that the future welfare
_ of the country depends on the patriotic devotion of the people, and that the country is doomed if ever the citizen fail in
their duty. He is himself the very type of a genuine,
sturdy, patriotic American, and is constantly trying to bring
others up to his level.
But in his oration at the Little Long Island town where
he spent his holiday, Roosevelt touched on another and
kinder subject, which also occupies a place near his heart,
the need of preparing for the defense and advancement of
the United States. Especially does he advoeate an increase
of the navy. a,
“At present,” he said, “there is not a cloud as big as a
hand’s breadth on the horizon. We are on terms of good
will with all the peoples of mankind. I think that they feel
well disposed toward us. I want a good navy, not as a provocative of war but’as a guarantee against war. . want it as
the cheapest insurance of peace. 1 want to see peace always
in this country, but the peace that comes not to the coward
who flinches from the fight but the just armed man, who will
neither wrong the weak nor suffer wrong from the strong. I
think that is good Americanism and sound common sense,
“We only need a small regular army, but ‘we need a
first-class navy, a navy equal to. the position we have in the
PS
world, and it is absalntely necessary that we should keep on
with the building up of that navy and that we should keep
the navy that we have at the highest point of efficiency in
ships, in guns, the men in them and behind them.

CHAMBERLAIN A REPUBLICAN.
*HAMBERLAIN, the British Colonial Secretary, would
be a good Republican if he lived in the United States.
He practically indorsed the policy of that party in
a letter to a’ working man, recently published.
Chamberlain says that it will be impossible to secure preferential treatment from the colonies without Great Britain
placing some duty on wheat, as well as other articles of food,
because these are the chief articles of colonial produce.
“Whether this will raise the cost of living is a matter of
opinion,” says Chamberlain. ‘There is no doubt, in many
cases duty of this kind will be paid by the exporter, and it
really depends on the extent of competition among the exporting countries. For instance, I think it is established
that the duty of one shilling recently imposed on imported
wheat was met by a reduction in prices and freight rates by
the States, and therefore, the tax did not fall on the consumer
here, but even if the price of food is raised, the rate of wages
will certainly rise in greater proportion. This has been the
case both in the United States and Germany.”
Referring to the predictions that ‘his proposals would
ruin the country, Chamberlain says: “How are we to account
for the fact that the increase of exports, wages and getieral
. prosperity during the last twenty-nine years in the United
States and Germany have been greater than in Great Britain,
which is the only civilized country in the world to enjoy the
blessings of unrestricted free imports?”
