BY SCOTT c. BONE.

for Vice President, Franklin d. Rouse
welt Is vninly endcayorng to invoke
the progressive spirit of 1912 In sup
port of wisconsin and the election OF
the Democratic ticket In November.
What would the real Roosevelt
Theodore Roosevelt--the immortal 7.
R.-say TO his followers were he alive
| today2
Gone, he left burning words which
tell all too plainly what his attitude
would be at this time.
He abhorred wisconsin, Just as he
abhorred Duniel'sm. with both OF which
Franklin d. Roosevelt has been ldenti
fed as all under Secretary.
Condemned wisconsin.
| Theodore Roosevelt condemned WI.
sonlsm and the whole Wilson admins
traitor In unsparing terms.
Read anew what he said at Cooper
Union on November 3. 1916:
81 have been assalled because have
criticised Mr.. Wilson. I have not said
one thing Of him that was not absolute
ly accurate and truthful.
| ~ have not said one thing OF him
which ! did not deem II necessary to
say because Of the vital interests Of
this republic. d.
~ have criticised him because ! be.
lieve he has dragged In the dust what
was most sacred In our past and has
| jeopardixed the most vital hopes Of
our future.
n criticiss him now because he has
adroltly and cleverly and with sinister
ability appealed to all that 10 weakest
and most unworthy In the American
character; and also because be has
adroitly and cleverly and with sinister
ability sought to mislead many men
and womes who are neither weak nor
unworthy. but who have been misled
by q shadow dance Of words.
HE has made our craftsmanship a
thing Of empty elocufion.
"He has covered his fear OF s,nnd.
ing for the right behind q veil Of
rhetorical phrases.
"He has wrapped the true heart OF
the nation In a spangled shroud OF
rhetoric.
HE has kept the eyes Of the peo'
pie dazzled SO that they know not what
is real and what is false. So that they
turn, bewildered. unable to discern the
difference between the glitter that
veneers evil and the stark realities OF
courage aud honesty. Of truth and
strength. -
"In the face Of the world he has GOV.
cred this nation's face with shame AZ
with q garment"
SO much for Theodore Roosevelt's
opinion Of Wilson and wisconsin Ia
support of which franklin D. Roose
welt, lifelong Democrat, would now In

National Defense" at Chicago. Octo
Der 20, 1915, Theodore Roosevelt said
more harm has been done to III,

naval officers. who, in most c;lses. hav
been snubbcd and punished for thei
proposals as long as IL was safe 10 Il
