I am sorry that I cannot agree
with this estimate of Colonel Roose
velt though I am ready to admit that
he is the moat popular American who
ever lived and that he has received
moae flattery and adult atioa than any
other human being that ever lived

that he will toll you that Teddy
has a stronger hand than Caesar
and a finer brain than Bacon, more
patriotism than Tell and more hon
esty than the law allows anybody
eLse to have.
I don't believe any such stuff. I
think Mr. Roosevelt is fashioned of
clay and very common clay at that.
I am sure that he Is more mud than
marble. I am convinced that the
only true picture of the man yet
is that limned by Annie Riley Hile,
o Tnen., the most intellectual wo
man I ever saw or ever expect to
S3e. And the inexorable historian
that will come from a remote gen
eration will not omit to take a long
look at the picture Mrs. Hale draws
of Teddy.
There is much vicious hostility to
the Taft administration, that in my
humble opinion is the very best Re
publican administration we ever had.
Certainly it is the only one that
ever recognized in the South a full
sister, and not a step-sister of the
national household. Did Roosevelt so
look upon the South ? I'M tell yon.
I. was somewhat amused and not
a little angered to read a paper on
Roosevelt a few days ago. It was
separated into twelve chapters and
headed: "What Has Roosevelt
Done?" tt went on to enumerate
soma scores of things he did as
mender of the Legislature, Gover
nor and President, for the "uplift."
And ia youth reading it is sure to
conclude if be has a plastic and
reoeotive mind that there is little
o- nothing fit for anything ia this
life, at home or abroad that Teddy
dil not Invent forge and put on the
narfcet, frie as air for all to
enjoy.
But there was a painful hi.tus so
t call it. There were things un men
tioned. For example no account was
taken of tbe fact that Theodore
Roosevelt has an utter and absolute
contempt for the binding forces of
law when thev come in contact wttl
with one of his pragmatic and damp
hool ideas of what is expedient. That
he is a consummate politician, I
admit; as a grandstand player be is
unequaled. He can pray with SU"
Priaet and be can curse with Sir
Knight. Theoretically be is a civil
saivice reformer with Carl Schuri;
rnvtrti-ftllv be is a sDoilsman with
Tom Pkifct. He. ia Janus-faced that
fronts every way..
When, the people of IndJenola, Miss
exproseod dissat isf action with a
negro postmaster, Theodore Roose
velt, in contemptuous defiance of
the plain law of the land, abolish
ed the officer. Had Andy joanson
done the like of that, the Im
peachment proceeding would have re
iiit.fvi in conviction. Sooner than
treat ZanesvUle, Ohio as he treat
ed Indianola, ML. Teddy would have
taken a raging Bengal tiger by the
throat. He was as sectional a Paesl
dent as Hayes, or Harrison. He did
not believe the South was entitled to
the same treatment be meted out
to the North.
He forced the negro drum on
Charleston because it was Charleston

posed as toe only great oriel

even years. He never touched an
octopus. Show me one trust be ever

He matched op the hUl with 40,0000

disasters to the financial and com

There was the Sherman Anti
