HOW THEY M1suNDERsTAND OR D1sToRT.

It is an unfortunate habit of people of wfully
misunderstanding and misconstrung what those say with
whom they differ 1t is likewise unfortunate that the
English language easily susceptible of such miscon-
struction 1t is exact language 1t is an adaptabe
one suited to free expression OF ideas but he who uses
it to express such ideas must face the danger OF having
his words given meaning which he suspected much
less intended to express.
Much more then must public suffer from those
who add to the natural opportunity for
or misconceptions wilful desire to distort This seems
be the situation in the of Colonel Roosevelt 1t
makes difference what he says his statements so
construed to give opportunity for criticism and his at
tude is subjected to msconsrction. For instance one
newspaper rabid opponent of the colonel speaking OF
the recent Progressive conference at Chicago said:
HE did not formally accept the unofficial nomination
for the presidency in 1916 which rendered him. but
he warned all others to keep off the grass y
Now, matter of fact, every utterance of Colonel
Roosevelt at that conference and quotation from
him private conference with his associates was directly
to the contrary of this declaration.
The following quotations taken from him show the
drift of all the advice that he or has given relative
to candidates. and policies:

1t has been beyond ability to comprehend how
from honest conviction who when Roosevelt was
garded less devoted to the welfare of the
pie distinguished from those possessing wealth and
joyng special privileges praised and honored him beyond
openly declaring only for just and equal opportunities
and enjoyments of privileges from all ake-the rich

just the those who have been deprived Of them
be so bitter against him.
It may be that their bitterness is misunderstood but
that they bitter there be doubt. Men who
would be expeced to maintain fair and just poise relative
to such public matters have been known actually to lose
their heads and to engage in bitter nvectve such
would scarcely expect from the most ignorant and the
most preudced whenever they discuss Roosevelt and his
present attitude 1t might be better for them to study
what Roosevelt really advocates and what the people
really demanding and their abilities to help rather
than to them to impede what is certain
