ply Of Sir Walter Scott.

EARNEST CITIZENS

MRS. DWIGHT, in The Herald's
III Letter Box. comments unfavor-
IVA ably on President Tafts speech
to the Bowery bread line. President
Taft told the unfortunate creatures
who cannot get employment, food;
clothing or shelter in New York that he
could see by their faces they were
earnest American citizens. We have no
doubt they gave the impression of be-
ing thoroughly in earnest. Those who
have seen the Bowery bread line or the
Grace church bread line, or any other
bread line, have been impressed by the
grim earnestncss as well as the un-
maskedness of the faces. There's Moth
ing like starvation to bring out the ma
ture of man in his face. Here was
despair, there was patience, but an
other pinched face had the expression
of a wolf another that Of a fox, an
other that of tiger.
Some Of you are down on your
luck" said the president of the United
States to his starving constituents.
Notwithstanding this, there is the same
sentiment of loyalty, patriotism and
love of country, ideals and aspirations
for betterment that hope every Amer
lean citizen has"
President Taft is not very good
Judge Of human nature. He does not
know what It is to be down and out
or even to be poor, or he would know
the primitive pangs of animal hunger
leave little room for aspirations for bet
terment save those for a square deal
and square meal. Such aspirations
we believe every man in the bread line
possessed, and to that extent our wor-
thy president was right.
We are glad indeed to see President
Taft. unlike the usually vastly superior
"bourgeois orator." did NOT warn the
victims of social conditions and dire
noyerty to "shun drink" and attend
sunday school.
BY the way, is it not rather foolish
to warn citizens to shun the product
Of one Of the greatest and most lucra-
tive industries in the United states
Why go on making the stuff if it is TO
be stunned? why not be reasonable
consistent, sensible?
