There has been a distinct breaking down of old practices and traditions since Roosevelt has been president. Landmarks and customs which were observed by the American people for a century and a quarter, and under which the republic grew in great honor and wealth and moral power, have been set aside. The effort to make the United States an imperial world power” has not only proved immense'' costly. but it has brought new and hitherto ur.kowr. worries and dangers. Mr. Roosevelt himself, however, patriotic he may be has shewn that he "fee's his oats and has frequently • ly exhibited the hand of an autocrat, j Ke has found the co s . ...on tn his way and has fumed at it like a petit- j last bey He can see little use i® state lines. He would like to have ail governmental power centered at Washington. Recently he has acquired the habit of commanding governors. mayors and other officials of cur outlying ar..t de;x udeat states and municipalities to hike to Washington to learn there tgg royal will and pleasure cenoermug them.

is imperialistic. And then, look at the cabinet! We may as well look at it through the edltori.M eyes of the New York World: ' Mr. Taft, with his suit case well filled with Big Stick samples, peace predictions. war wisdom and Rooseveltian views upon all manner of topics from football to flouishing families, is ready for another trip to Panama. Cuba and Porto Rico. "The passion for travel among American statsmen has reached a point where it is becoming a veritable wanderlust, * Where cabinet officers formerly confined their traveling mainly to journeys between the national capital and their homes they nowadays take a passage to Cuba or Panama or the Philippines or Japan, as the impulse moves them, or make the grand tour of the Southern Hemisphere. Swings about the circle of states by public officials have become as common as commuters’ trips. The total mileage traversed by Secretaries Taft. Root and Shaw on. public er semi-public business during their terms of office must exceed that of all the Cabinet officers, from Lincoln's administration to Roosevelt's, It is an interesting development of modern statesmanship. But in what previous administration has there been such a need of legates from the executive mansion to explain the presidential policy? When before was it so necessary to display the consular signet ring*' ■ 1 11 — n . '■■Wjfcjf NOTICE. Decatur. Ind, March 2S. 07.
