In the course of a bitter deunncia-
ton of President Roosevelt on the
floor of the house today, Mr.. Stanley
of Kentucky, compared him to Alex
ander Hamilton, whom he designated
as an Obscure adventurer," and both
of whom, he said, had a profound
contempt for the constitution and dis
played everlasting Impotence with
its restraints. The president, he
said, was a man who relished the
glamor of display, and who became
intoxicated by applause. On the
other hand, he said, Bryan had the
respect of the country as statesman
and was trusted as a man.
Apparently ignoring Stanley's re-
marks, Mr.. Cooke of New York, rep
resenting the presidents district, de-
Tended the president against the re-
cent attacks of Willett In replying
to Cooke, Willett declared his com.
plete ability to defend all that he
had said.
These remarks were made during
the general debate on the agricultural
appropriation bill, consideration o.
which was not concluded when The
