RooseveIt's Trick of Self Defence.


AS he spoke the words. Colonel
Roosevelt stepped forward quickly,
and seized his arm just above the ell
bow. He explained later that he did
not know who the man was or what
his intentions were and that he had
taken hold of his arm as a measure of
self protection. He pushed the arm
SO that he was powerless to use the
arm. 1t was. an old trick of self-de-
fence which he had learned years ago,
the colonel said.
The Ugly Retort.
His vigorous action did not deter the
man from finishing what he had to
say He shouted out:
Your expenses are being paid by
the people of the United States"
Disturber Quickly Elected.
Although Colonel Roosevelt was the
first to act. others ran quickly to as
sist him and even before the man had
finished his remarks. two men seized
him. The colonel did not release his
rapidly from the stand. He was eject
ed from the platform and was swal
lowed UP in the excited crowd So far
as is known there was no cause for
alarm. but the story of the incident
spread quickly through the crowd and
produced considerable excitement.
Man Not Known in Fargo.
Colonel Roosevelt managed to get
to his automobile and was driven
rapidly away. He said later that he
had no idea who the stranger was.
Members of the Dor organizations
here came to me and told me that they
did not know him." he said They
said that he had come from out of
town"
An effort was made to find the man
but all traces of him were lost. Col
onel Roosevelt said that he was not al
ali alarmed by what had happened.
In Sympathy With Laborina Man.
In his address before the great Labor
day crowd, in which were hundreds of
members of trades unions. ex- President
Roosevelt spoke words of warm COM
m endation of the federal judge who in
troduced him because the judge by
what he had said had showed himself
tc be in sympathy with the laboring
snan. He referred to Judge G. F. Am
idon of the district of North Dakota.
and his remarhc< were applauded Wig
orcusly by the crowd.
A parade to Island Park headed by
the trades unions of Fargo traversed
the principal streets of the city, and
CC'Cnel Roosevelt, who rode in an au-
tomobile. was cheered constantly by
the crowds. In his speech the colonel
made II clear that he did not wish to
give blanket endorsement of every
thing done by labor unions, although
he said that he believed them to be a
of modern life and thorough
ly approved them.
