THE ROOSEvELTTILLMAN
ESPISODE

Reading Senator Tillman's defense
OF himself # does not, In our opin-
ion, appear TO "A fair minded man
that he has been guilty OF any wrong
justifyina the rather yenomous at
tack OF the President OF the United
States. We desire to preface our rs
marks with the statement that this
newspaper disapproves OF public
men engaging in any speculation
which may raise suspicion of their
motives and integrity. and speak
ing generally, therefore, We deprecate
Senator Tillman's attempt 30 secure
some OF she Oregon land in question.
His effort 10 do so gave Mr.. Roose-
velt an opportunity TO vent his pent-
up spleen against the South Caro-
lima Senator and may have raised
doubts in some minds as so his Off
cial integrity. In the light. however,
OF the facts as frankly given by Mr..
Tillman il ia obvious shat the sena-
tor has done nothing TO be ashamed
OF, though It was an act Of indiscre-
tion as shown by subsequent hap
penings. No one who has followed
the career OF Mr.. Tillman will believe
that he is a corrupt public servant.
We have never admired the senator
from South Carolina and we have
more than once criticized his actions
In the Senate, but, rough diamond
though be is, there has always been
about him a suggestion OF rugged
honesty and purity OF character as a
public man, which is not removed by
Mr.. Roosevelt attack. Is was a
small thing In the president TO
make q man coniessedly non persona
grata at the White House the objecs
OF an executive attack when there
was no more ground for such an at
tack than shown in this case. IL
looks like petty piece OF spite on
Mr.. Roosevelt's part, an attempt 30
get even for some past grievances
against Senator Tillman. and places
the president in an unenviable light
before the country. Mr.. Roosevelt
is fast fulfilling the predictions made
to the efiecs that he. himself, will
wreck his popularity before his
term OF Office expires.
