" Washington" Dispatch, I . f-. 1 In answer to one of the numer ous protests which have been re ceived at the White House against the new gold coins which have been coined without the words "In God We Trust," President Roosevelt has written a letter which he to-day made Public. The letter follows; 'When the question of the new coinage came up we looked into the law and found there was no warrent therein for putting "In God We Trust on the coin As the custom, although without legal warrant, had grown up, however, I might have felt at liberty to keep Xhe inscription had I approved of its being on the coin. But as I did not ap prove of it, I did not direct that it should again be put on. Of course, the matter of the law is absolutely in the hands of the Congress, and ai.y direction of Congress in the matter will be immediately obeyed. At present, as I have said, , there is no war rant in law for the inscription. IS IRREVERENT. "My own feeling in the matter is due to my very firm conviction that to put such a matto on coins or to use it in any kindered man ner, not only does no good, but does positive harm, and is in ef fect irreverence which comes dangerously close to sacrilege, A beautiful and solemn sentence, such as the one in questiontshoud be treated and uttered only with that fine reverence which neces sarily implies a certain exaltation of spirit. Any use which tends cheapen it, and above all, any use which tends to secure its be ing treated in a spirit of levity, is from every standnoiiar. v j, M. w f oundly to be regretted. "It is a motto which it is in deed well to have inscribed on our great national monuments, in our temples of Justice, in our legislative halls and in buildings such as those at West Point and Annapolis, in short whatever it will to arouse and inspire a lofty emotion in those who look there on. But seems to me eminent ly unwise to cheapen such a mot to by use on postage stamps or in advertisements. PAST EXPERIENCE. 'As regards its use on the coin age we have actual experience by which to go. In all my life I have never heard any human being speak reverently of this motto on the coins or show any Signs of its having appealed to any hih emotion to him, : but I have literally hundreds of times heard it used as an occasion of and incitement to the sneering ridicule which it is above ail things undersirable that so beau tiful and exalted a phrase should excite. For example, througout the long contest extending over several cecades on the free coin age question, the existence of motto on' the coins was a source of jest and ridicule, and this was unavoidable. Every one must remember tne innumer able cartoons and articles based on phrases like In God we trust for the eight cents U God wt trust for the short weight 'In -Sod we trust for the thirty-sev- m.

"Surely I am well within bounds when I say that a use of the phrase which invites con stant levity, of this type is. most undersiable. If congress alters the law and directs me to replace on the coins the sentence in question, the direction will be immediately put into effect, mit I very earnestly hope that the religious sentiment of the coun try, will prevent any such action being taken, "Theodore Roosevelt' NO OPINION IN $30,000 FINE CASE. Opinions in only eight cases on appeal were delivered by the Supreme court this evening. Again the anxiously awaited case of the state versus the Southern railway, involving a $30,000 fine against the Southern for violation of the2i cent pas senger rate, was not in the Ijst, The money famine in every town will be decreased if every man will pay his debts or as much of them as he can prompt ly.
