To the student of polirical science and social progress the speech of Theodore Kocsevelt before the Ohio constitution ad convention is an event of first rate signiificaince In the hfiiiipry of American polities -when -weighed in all its bearings tlvs address is one of the rare utterances -which great crises in nit tonal thought produce It is the greatest message -which its r thor has ever sent to the American peoiple In recant years the leading ideas of two of the founders 01 our republic have found re mrkable expounders Mr Bry ar as a prcfc sd dissiiple has wijh all his force accentuated Thcanas Jclfeiscn s faith in d acjK sy his absolute reli ance on tdie ahlity of the people to rule themselves In the view cf Jefferson and his disciple the medicine for the ills cf democracy ir more dcmcciaev and to safeguard the in tercuts cf the people our shevt anehor s state rather tlan the centialized federal power On the other ihand the loftiest ideal of Alexander Hamil ton was the fostering and development of the spirit of na tionality of national patriotism a sentiment very much need ed in the decade following the close of the war of inde pendence To realize a true spirit of nationalism Hamilton would have strengthened the federal government even if need be the states must be reduced to the position of mer iJiiUiiitive districts o far as the ideal of nation 1Wm is concerned Roosevelt cs fie greatest disciph of Hamilton Never in times of peace hi3 the clicef executive of the nailiion -taken so active a part as a real dynamic directive governing force as diel Roosevelt during bja eight years as president Thus far those years mark tihe culmination of the expanding power of the federal stite and how vastly greater and more complex are the func tions of all -governments now as compared wMi those of 1800 Yet Roosevelt unlike Hamilton would -not have been will ing consciously to weaken the t te to devitalize ithe local organs of self government The nation builder confesses a faoth in the people a trust in democracy wMeh in that re gard shews him to be a disciple of Jefferson whether or not he be cansccous of the fact The initiative the referen dum direct primary the papular election of senators even the- recall of judges what a program of radical democracy Add to tihjiB the acceptance a fewldays ago of equal suffrage Here is a statesman nourished in an eastern environment who can rise to the level of the swiftly mounting democracy of Uie Pacific coast Here is a man who is growing younger becoming more virile willh his years For the progressive in political and soeial ideals this epoch making utterance is full of inspiration It breeds hope It means that reason will tri umiph that it is gaining the victory Here is a man who has made mistakes who sometimes has beea unjust who occasionally has been violent whose ieleals of mbtarism and the chase are not m harmony with modern humanism whom nome of us have not been able to vote for yet he stands before us as an lion est and brave man a man who is not asihamcxL to change and grow in political idealsj -with his increasing experience- The world respects a man who fthoiugih -he may sometjianejs think wrongly yet whetQier right or wrong thinks with litis own mind Clearly Theodore Roosevelt does net live in a rented or borrowed mind but in one winch is lias very own an fee simple according to natures Id gh est title If the people are permitted to decide y esterday s speech will make him the next president NORMS ENDORSES ROOSEVELT SPEECH Washington Feb 22 Many
