Many Of president Tafts friends have
asserted that Coll Roosevelt had Mr..
Taft in mind when in his Columbus
speech he said:
Many eminent lawyers who more
or less frankly disbelieve in our entire
american system Of government for, by
and OF the people. violently antagonize
this proposal. They believe and some
times assert. that the American people
are not fitted for popular government,
and that IL Is necessary 10 keep the ju-
dietary independent Of the majority or
OF all the people; that there must be
an appeal to the people from the de-

In the same connection Col Roose-

Washington, D. c.. Feb. 24.-Presi-
dent Taft today denied emphatically
that in a speech in New York on Lin
codn's birthday he said "That the peo-
pie are not fitted for self govern
ment." In the first Official statement
Of this kind that the white house has
ever issued during the Taft admins
tration. the president calls the eireu-
lation OF this story 4 "falsehood."
The white house statement follows.
Among the falsehOods that are he
ing assiduously circulated bv persons
and papers opposed to the president is
one that in his Lincoln day SDeech The
president argued that the people are
rot fitted for self government Pres{-
dent Taft said only on tthat occasion
which possibly could be tortured fnto
any such cons truction.
The speech in which the president
made reference TO popular government
was delivered at the banquet OF The
state Bar association in New York on
the night OF January 20. What he Then
said on this subject. and Il was COR
rectly quoted in the newspapers the
following day. was this

lieve in. There are those Of US who
do not believe all people are fitted for

know they are not Some of ms dare
not say so, but I do; and the question
whether q people is fitted for popular
self government so as to make that
government best for the people is
determined by the ability of the
