LISA GOOD FIGHT. KEEP IT
GOING, SAYS ROOSEVELT.

Colonel Roosevelt issued the fol-
lowing statement at Chicago last
Friday:
II wish to express my cordial a.
greement with the manly and pro-
per statement of Mr.. Bryan at Frank
lin, Ind. who, in arguing for con-
tinuance of the discussion OF the
issues at stake in the contest, said:
The issues of this campaign should
not be determined by the act of an
assassin. Neither Colonel Roose-
Welt nor his friends could ask that
the discussion be turned away from
the principles that are involved. II
he'is elected president il should be
because of what he has done in the
past and what he proposes to do
hereafter
Il wish to point out, however,
that neither / nor my friends have
asked that the discussion be turned
away from the principles that are
involved. On the contrary, we EN-
,hatically demand that the discuss
IN be carried on precisely as If !
lad not been shot.
Il shall be sorry if Mr.. Wilson
does not keep on the stump, and /
feel that he owes ii to himself and
the American people to continue on
the stump.
Il wish to make one more COM
ment on Mr.. Bryan's statement. 1t
is, of course. perfectly true that in
voting for me or against me, con-
sideration must be paid to what
have done in the past and to what
4 nv IN
ne far more important that consid-
,ration should be paid to what the
progressive party proposes to do.
Il cannot too strongly emphasize
he fact upon which We progressiVes
insist. that the welfare of any one
man in this fight is wholly inmate
rial compared TO the great and fun
damental issues involved in the tri-
umph of the principles for which our
cause stands. If l had been killed
the fight would have gone on ca
actly the same.
Governor johnson, Senator Bey-
aridge, Mr.. Straus, Senator BrlstoW,
Miss Jane Adams, Clifford Pinchot,
fudge Ben Lindsay, Raymond Rob
bins, Mr.. Prendergast, and the hun
dreds of other men now on the
stump are preaching the doctrines
that | have been preaching, and
stand for and represent just the
same cause. They would have con-
tinued the fight in exactly the same
way if l had been killed, and they
are continuing ii in just the same
way, now that l am for the moment
laid up.
so far as my opponents are con-
.erned, whatever could with truth
and propriety have been said against
me and my cause before / was shot.
can with equal truth and equal pro-
priety be said against me now and
should be so said; and the things
that cannot be said now are merely
the things that ought not TO have
been said before. This is not
contest about any man-it is con-
test concerning principles.
If my broken rib heals fast e.
nough to relieve my breathing, /
shall hope to be able to make one
or two speeches in this campaign;
III any event, if l am not able TO
make them, the men l have men
toned above and the hundreds like
them will be stating our cause right
Il, the end of the campaign and /
trust our opponents will be stating
their cause also.
