Judge f. f. Dunno. at the conclusion

Under the Administration OF Theodore

Under a Roosevelt the Republic bows
down before an empire aud humanity

DO the American people appreciate the
full significance and effect Of this shame

and how low this nation has been sunk
from the traditions and policy of the
past by this churIish and disgracefuI
conduct Of the present Administrations 20
