SATURDAY, APRIL 81, 1907
Rousevelt's Bravest Act
Refuses to Retract His Expressed
Opinion That Debs is Undesirable"


President Roosevelt has done
many original things to indicate
his independence and great moral
courage. Probably no single act
of his indicates his great courage
and individuality more than his
refusal to retract his expressed
opinion of Eugene V Debs, Charles
II. Meyer and w. D. Haywood
as undesirable citizens" This
opinion was expressed in a letter
addressed to Congressman Sher-
man in connection with the Presi-
dents controversy with Hartman.
Immediately the sympathizers
with the men accused of the muir
der of Ex-Governor Steunenberg
raised a hue and cry and were
preparing to send delegations to
Washington to ask the president
to retract. Labor organizations
were taking the matter up and
promising to make a great issue OF
the matter. But Roosevelt never
faltered. He has addressed a
letter to Honore Jackson, chair
man of the Chicago Meyer and
Haywood defense association,
which shows that the president
entertains strong opinions adverse
to Debs and his anarchistic utter
ances. The following are some of
the paragraphs of the letter:
ain my letter, to which you OBJ
iect, referred to a prominent
financier, Mr.. Hartman, on one
hand and to Meyer, Haywood and
Debs on the other, as being equally
undesirable citizens. 1t is as foolish
to assert that this was designed to
influence the trial of Meyer and
Haywood as to assert that it was
designed to influence suits that
have been brought against Harri-
man.
81 neither exp e-sed nor indicat-
ed any opinion AS to whether
Nov r and Haywood were guilty of
the murde # Governor Steunen-
berg. If they are guilty they GER
tainly ought to be punished. If
not guilty they certainly ought
not to be punished
"But no possible outcome either
of the trial or of suits can affect
my judgment as to the undesir-
able type of citizenship of those
whom | mentioned. Meyer, Hay
wood and Debs stand as represent
tatives of those men who have
done so much to discredit the
labor movement as the worst spec
ulative iinancier or the most I'M
scrupulous employers of labor and
debauchers of legislatures have
done to discredit capitalists and
fair dealing business men.
"They stand as representative OF
these n en- who by their public
utterances and by the words and
deeds of those associated with OF
subordinate to them, habitually
appear as guilty of the Indictment
to or the apology for bloodshed or
violence,
"If this does not constitute I'M
desirable citizenship there can
never be any undesirable citizen
ship.
"The men whom l denounce
represented men who have a5an-
doned that legitimate movement
for the uplifting of labor, with
which | have the most hearty
sympathy. They have adopted
practices which cut them off from
those who lead this legitimate
