ed a Iced Tuesday night that won for

switched them over to the westbound
track allowing them to proceed slowly
to Maysville where they could return

Louisville, KY, October 19-The-
odore Roosevelt addressed a crowd
that occupied all available space In
the auditorium of PhoeIiix Hill Park
last night. His speech was almost en-
tirely a personal attack upon Presi-
dent Wilson. BY ridicule and abuse
Of the foreign policy of Mr.. Wilson, he
sought to show why the Republican
party should be restored to power.
lie said the President had been guilty
of the following:
yielding to force in the enactment
of the Adamson eight-hour law for
railroad men,
Failing to hold Germany to strict
accountability for the invasion of Bel
GUM;
Saying he was too proud to fight
over the murder of 1894 men, women
and children on the Lusitania;
Failing to protect property rights
of American citizens against Great
Britain's blockade;
"Prostituting Americas National
honor to Mexican bandits, in return
for which he has won only a venom
Gus and treacherous hostility to the
United States;
Instead of speaking sofety and car
rying a big stick President Wilson
spoke enthusiastically and carried a
dishrag," said Colonel Roosevelt.
Carrizal Attack
An example of the general tone of
Colonel Roosevelt's attack upon Pres'-
dent Wilson was given by his refer
ence to the attack by Carranza SOL
diers upon American troopers at Car
rial. He referred to General TrCN
nos statement that Pershings forces
should move neither East nor West
nor South, but only North. and to
President Wilson's alleged statement
that "Such a proposition was mad
missible."
Even after Boyd and Adair had
moved in violation of that order and
met their deaths, Mr. Wilson did not
so much as slap Carranza on the
wrist" said Colonel Roosevelt. slap
ping his own wrist. ITO this day there
has been not a word said about atone
ment for the lives of American SOL
diers killed in the performance Of q
duty for which they were sent to Mex
leo by the President"
Colonel Roosevelt scored the Pres
ident for the appointment of Newton
ID. Baker as secretary of war. He
declared that Secretary Baker was an
arch pacifist and as a boy never even
played with tin soldiers because IT
was brutal"
When he referred to the claim that
President Wilson has kept the country
out of war Colonel Roosevelt put a
rote of sarcasm in his voice.
During the seven and half years
| was President" he said, not shot
was fired by an American sailor or
soldier and not one American cIuzen
was hurt or killed by the agents of
any foreign government"
Colonel Roosevelt referred to the
Understanding words of Mr.. Wilson
which have not been backed by
deeds" He declared they were not
worth the paper they were printed on
or the breath it took to utter them,
If Jackson or Cleveland had said what
Wilson said, he declared, their words
would have meant a great deal more,
