TO EXPOSE MUCK RAKERS
PRESIDENT WILL ATTACK MAGA.
ZINE MUD-SLINGERS.
THEIR TREASON TO REPUBLIC
Wanton Attacks on Public Men by
Sensational Magazine Writers, and
the Injury to the Country, viii be
Dealt With by Roosevelt.

Washington, April 9.--As a reform
er, President Roosevelt has been SO
completely outclassed by the maga
zine reformers and professional graft
developers that he has been forced to
turn upon these gentlemen and in a
notable speech he will denounce their
unbridled license and unfair denunci
alton of public men as something
which falls little short of downright
treason to the republic.
TIL president Is as honest a man as
ever entered public life. He has pur
sued his course under the influence of
the highest ideals, and the unbounded
popularity he enjoys throughout the
country is born of the universal belief
in American citizenship.
But Theodore Roosevelt has never
thrown mud at men. He has never
denounced his associates or those
higher up, at time when there were
so many higher up, as thieves or black
legs. He has been ready OF take most
men at their own estimate and seldom
has been willing to talk of graft, or
of cowardice, or Of demogogy, or of
improper motives in public life.
imposed on President.
On the contrary, the presidents
ideals have led him to believe that the
average American citizen is good
man and can be trusted when in public
life, just as much as when he stands
behind the counter of his store, or
even, perchance, burns his midnight
oil concocting a sensational article
for not too scrupulous magazine.
There has been an inroad of these
professional graft developers in Wash
ington during the last few months.
They all made beeline for the white
house because they knew the presi.
dent was honest and they believed
every one ese in Washington was of
the contrary description. They
swarmed about the presidents office,
inundated him with vague. stories of
dishonesty they were about TO uncov-
er, appealed to him to help, then dis
gusted him by their extraordinary van
ity and their supernatural ignorance
OF the details of public affairs.
Magazinists came and went, they
pulled down no pillars or temple, they
