adopt the Roosevelt policy Of getting rid of his
visitors, because the two are constitutionally
different in at least respect. 1t must be said,
however. that the Roosevelt plan of receiving
guests has done good deal to save the tempers
of White House visitors and the time of Mr.
Taft.
AS everybody knows, addition was made
to the White House offices some time ago. In
the Roosevelt days callers went into the cabinet
room and from there either were ushered into
the adjoining room, where the president sat-
or waited while Mr.. Roosevelt came out and
made circuit of the cabinet room, speaking to
one caller after another and getting through with
his work quickly and yet without giving offense.
Now President Taft has circular room all
to himself and while the visitors are allowed the
two big rooms outside, it is from these rooms
they find there way to the presidents presence,
being let In eight or ten at a time, and not one
at time. as was the case when Mr. Taft first
took office.
The president has adopted the Roosevelt
method of passing from visitor to visitor learn
ing the wants of each and trying as best he can
to suit each caller and to get rid of him as quick
~ as courtesy will permit President Taft how

of whom knew Lincoln personally, who
think that the noble roadway would
be the best possible memorial to the

has been aroused in the country, al
