R~O0SETELT'S PATH

Some of the Democratic critics of
Roosevelt's letter of acceptance say that
he Is egotistic In claiming that he and his
associates In the government nave done
more for the country than the Democrat
ic party could possibly do II 1t were TO
come into power. What they mistake for
egotism is simply the faith of an honest.
earnest mar in the cause for which ne
stands. The keynote Of his position Is
sounded clearly enough in his letter.:
"The principles which we profess are
those in which we&beljeye with heart and
soul and strength. w
THE policies we have pursued are
those which we earnestly hold are essen
tial to the national welfare and repute.''
In saying that he speaks, for his assoc
ciates, Hay. Roo Taft. Knox. Moody,
and all the others with whom he mas
been working during the past three years.
Everybody who has come in contact with
him during that period knows the keen
Joy that he has experienced in his work
"a Joy that has sprung from the coh-
seriousness that he was carrying into
practice the principles and ideas of gov
eminent which he believes in with his
whole heart and soul.
Could there be a more ~justihable Joy
and pride than this? Roosevelt is an
intense American. He believes in his
country with every fiber of his being.
He believes that certain principles and
ideas carried out In its government will
develop that country's power and glory
and prosperity as nothing else can. lie
feels that the accomplishments OF the
past three years have demonstrated that
his ideas are sound What could be more
natural. therefore. than that he shonic
rejoice at the opportunity that he mas
