pure Roosewlt’s speeehes ok
191l—12, with the speeehes of his
reeent tour through the Middle
West. we shall notiee a great
(1it·t«(-renee. ln 1912 Roosevelt
was, the people’s man and eham
Isionecl their rights. He- had al
most nnlinsis d eonkidenee in the

did not hear evidenee that he is

the)f reminded us very mueh ok
«Ma(«htk)olitik". It« R()osevelt
eontiues this course-, he. will
soon he lost to the eause ok de

to lose the power of sneh a great
person-Hitze Roosevelt lost many
krientls hy his speaking tour.
The German arroganee is re
pngnant to all l«iherty-loving
people There is something in us
that revolts against the Germans
when they talk about «German
Knltnr" as the aeme ok eiviliz
ation. They say that «German
Kultur« shall heal the wounds
ok the world
But what are the tendeneies
here in Amerieat So much is
spoken and written about Ameri
eanism, and greater Ameriean
isin, that there is danger that we
eome to hoast ok our Ameriean
jam, as the Germans hoast of their
«I(ultnr." Roosevelt is right
when he says that there shall he
«onl·v one flag and one loyalty«
in this eonntrzc We must e0m
mend him and give him eredit
for exposing pro-Germanism and
for his ardent work for trne

thut Governor Harding has been
appointed by the Kaiser. And
I am very mheh sumkisecl to
learn that Col. Roosevelt nom
mencls Gov. Harding for bis dras

l cannot beliove that our noble

a proelamation. A word from
Washington would be timely.
Gov. Harding has gone a steki
further than the Kaiser and the
German elerkzy, who eall God the
German God. In an address de
livered in Des Moines before
the clhamber of Sommer-eh Gov.
Harding said in speaking about
;the English lang-nagte and those
who speak foreign languages:
«Neither the Pederal nor the
State Constitution Luarantees to
them the right to speak or pray
in any other language l am also
telling those who insist upon
praying in some other langnage,
that they are wasting their time,
for the good Lord up above us
is now listening for the voiee in
English.««)
Gov. Hardinst proelamation
was an answer to President
XVilsoiNa proelamation for a «da«v
of publie liumiliation, prayer and
fastitig.-." Gov. Hardiiig’s proela
mation eanie a few days after
President Wilson’s. I suppose the
Gov. was afraid that the prazsers
offered in foreigsn languages
would hurt the eause.
If Col. Roosevelt’s and Gov.
»Harding’s principles are enfore
Ted, one result will be a great
emieration to Canada. We can
ill akkord to lose any more than
we are losing now. Änd further
more the better elass of people
will not immigrate to Ameriea
We need more of the better elass,
and fewer of the lower elass.
Roosevelt is right when he ad
voeates Amerieanization of aliens,
and eitizens of foreign birth; but
1 don’t believe that bis short
out method is the best. Pres.
Wilson’s method of Livius-them
a-ehanee to reform, will aeeomp
lish more in length of time than
Roosevelt’s method of reform
quiekly or kill-them-quiek1y. The
Ämerieanization of aliens and ei
tizens of foreign birth Should be
alone linea of natnral develop
ment. That will make the best
Amerieans To change from one
language to another is like the
Lrowth of a plant. The healthi
est and strongeat plant is the
one that is neither retarded in
its growth, nor· promotedin its
Lrowth by artificial means. Eve
shall not make good Amerieans
out of the aliens and eitiZens
of foreign birth by taking a
way from them by foree their
language in Ghin-eh, sehool and
press« The natnral development
into Bnkxlish is taking plaee in
the foreikzn lang-nagt- settlei«nenta.
You eannot stop it. and it should
not be Stopped Many say that
the sonner an alien is Amt-mean
ize(l. the better it is for both
him and America. I am of a
different opinion If the aliens
are Amerieanized by a shortieut
proeess, thezf will lose too manzf
