FLAYING OF ROOSEVELT.
Editor of Gateway—Will you please tell me why Sen
ator Stone of Missouri recently took Theodore Roosevelt
%
to task, in a speech before Congress?—G. M.
Answer—Senator Stone’s address was in reply to an
article written in the Kansas City Rost, by Col. Roosevelt,
who said that President \\ ilson had betrayed de
mocracy when he had said that he did not wish to rear
%
range in any way the Austro-Hungarian Empire, and also
charging the President with making many false state
ments which were empty rhetoric. Roosevelt said that
the President’s statement would be universally condemned
bv honest men. Roosevelt accused the President of be
%
tracing the majority into the hands of the minority who
despise and hate us. It is undestood that the article of
Roosevelt’s aroused the utmost indignation throughout
the United States on account of his contemptuous dispar
agement of the President and his war aims. If the Editor
remembers correctly the Roosevelt article was published
about December 22nd in the Kansas City Post and appear
ed in the Seattle Post-Intelligencer, which also prints the
copyrighted articles of Roosevelt.
It is announced that the f »od administration will ex
tend anti-hoarding regulation to the homes of America.
It mav be assumed that this drastic action would not have
been taken unless it were necessary to uncover the stores
of unpatriotic housekeepers. Those who are “in the
dear" have nothing to fear from search: the guilty merit
whatever penalty may be imposed.
Says the Berlin Tageblatt: “There is no doubt that
the efforts of the Americans must be taken seriously.’’
Did it take President Wilson’s last speech to convince the
kaiser of our earnestness when we entered the war?
Cheer up! Look around you and you will see many
poor unfortunates whose cases make you look like Easy
. Street.
They say that the Hooligans are running in Resurrec
tion Bay—now everybody can easily observe meatless
day—if they like Hooligans.
It takes a mighty fair-minded man to admit that a
man who does not agree with him may be right about it.
JESSE WILLARD
IS BESIEGLD IN
CHICAGO HOME
CHICAGO, Jan. 2!>. — Jesse Wil-,
lard was besieged in his home last
night by a sheriff’s posse, seeking to
serve a summons in a suit brought by •
Victor Dowd, formerly employed in i
Willard’s circus.
Dowd has sued him for $2">,000 forj
alleged injuries received in a wrest- j
ling bout with Willard.
Upon the approacn of the officers.
Willard fled to the second story and
for three hours refused to answer thej
sheriff’s jeers, in an effort to make
him come out.
The sheriff finally called in four de
puties. Willard eluded them and
reached the outside, but ran into the
arms of another officer on guard, and
the summons was served.
