scribed for the committee of recsp
ton and the guests of the banquet
| wish to submit the following oberva
tons: First, No gentleman who has
the proper self-respect would take die
tation from anybody in a matter of
that kind. If it is his custom to wear
a Prince Albert coat and a six hal
to an afternoon entertainment he will
probably greet Mr.. Taft in that garb;
but he will hardly go to the expense
and trouble of buying the parapher
MALTA and fixing himself up in tina
way, just for that occasion.
Second, There is no objection to the
proposition of contributing twenty-five
dollars to raise the necessary money
to defray the expenses of entertain
ing the president, but to be directed
to array ones self in head waiter
uniform and pay twenty-five dollars
for the mo small honor Of sitting at
a table with the president" is repul-
sive to every self-respeot.ns gentle
man.
The man who pays twenty-five dol
lars to sit at the table with President
Taft and regards it as honor to him
self to be permitted to do so, will
not honor Taft or anybody else by his
presence.
1t is unfortunate that the president
cannot be received at the capital city
of Mississippi in cordial, dignified
and decorous manner, instead Of this
absurd exhibition of ostentatious ser

pocket, it would still be no honor to an,
self-respecting man to be invited to
it. Taft is nothing but a man. and a
hired man at that.
1t would be courtesy that any
gentleman would enjoy, but such lit
tie courtesies would never be &C
cepted as honors by the real man.
The fact is as l have bfor statd,
Mr. Taft cannot honor the people o
Jackson or the state of Mississippi by
accepting courtesies at their hands.
But the people of Mississippi can
honor Mr.. Taft.
Personally, would not consider it
any more of an honor to sit at the
table with the president of the United
States than | would with any other
gentleman.
1t would be just as much of an
honor to me, to sit at the table in the
home of one of the self-respecting
self-supporting, patriotic farmers of
Mississippi as it would to sit at the
table with the president, a congress
man or senator.

In the case OF Mr.. Taft, he is the
hired man of the trusts and OF preda-
