NO GIFT TO MISS ROOSEVELT.
Projected Wedding Present DisapprOved by
the President.

Washington. Dec. "a press dispatch from
Baker City, Ore. published yesterday announced
that 10 cent subscription was to be started in
Oregon and extended the country for the
purpose of raising sum which probably would ag-
gregate 100000 to be presented to Miss Alice Roose-
welt on the occasion of her marriage to Repre-
sentative Nicholas LongwOrth. The President dis
approves the proposition. is indicated by the
following statement issued at the White House to-
day:
Il The Presidents attention having been called TO
tne dlspatch from Baker City, Ore, to the effect
that a subscription about to be started for a
wedding present for Miss Roosevelt the President
stated tnat While he appreciated this evidence OF
good Will, he hoped nothing of the kind would be-
unoertaken. In fact. he wished particularly that

that conciliation is misconstrued. Nevertheiess'
we cannot regard it as impolitc to have adopt

one not of conciliation per sc, but OF cohcilla-

that fact is not necessarily of evil omen. The

China, but, on the contrary, has taken the lead
in restraining the world from such spoiadon

New-York tribune., 1905-12-28

The President displays his good sense in
promptly putting stop to the plan for raising
a large sum of money by popular subscription
as a wedding present to his daughter. Such a
thing could not fail to be embarrassing to MISS
Roosevelt herself we'll offensive to the
President and extremely unfortunate so far as
it might tend to affect the relation between the
Presidents family and the people The Presl-
dents family rightly treated everywhere
with distinguished courtesy but they are self
respecting private citizens, who neither have
official claims to tribute ask charity. Wed
ding gifts are, should be. the offerings Of per-
sonal and family friends. and a sum made up by
an organized appeal for individual personally
unknown to almost all the subscribers would
lack every quality which properly attaches to
such a gift. 1t is to be hoped that an American
young woman, even when her father is Presi-
dent will be allowed to enjoy her romance and
marry in decent privacy, as an American young
woman should.

that it was not meant for

wanted to build up IN this now
land good, happy homes, not to
pull them down. Alas, | have

me in past years in many earnest

our words of earnest Council and
