Professor Taylor in an Address on
Theodore Roosevelt Attack's the
' Critics ef the President.

FRIDAY EVENING
DECEMBER 6 '
sec
Wo should bo more careful about
tho manner which wo have of tiring
rapidly of our officials. TIiub declared
Professor Taylor of the Political Econ
omy department In a talk o Presi
dent Roosevolt at chapel yesterday
morning. t
' Pirofess'or'' Taylor first outlined rap
idly iho career of tho president, show
ing that ho had always boon a public
man and .cotihl bo counted an expert
In public affairs if any man could bo
bo counted. Ho especially 'men
tioned his acttons at tho opening of
the Spanlsh-Amorlcnn war as prqvlng
that ho was sincere In his actions.
When tho wnr brolco put, Itcosevclt
was tho first man to rnlso a regiment
and when It camoi to actual fighting
Roosevolt was always 'found whore
tho bullets, woro thickest. This was a
good test, of sincerity, for most poli
ticians ovoid the plnccs where bullets
are thick.
Coming back with the glory of tho
war, Roosevelt Wub mado vice-president
tJ got rid of him. Thon, con
trary to ftho, expectations and plans of
uli, Roosevelt, with his usual luck,
cnjiio Into tho presidency.
lie has a tremendous, personality,
(fln(T Is an aristocrat by birth. Tho
many personal altercations Into which
ho has got would lndicato that ho was
a small man, If It woro not for-tho
breadth of vlow ho has shown In his
actions as president. Ho has shown
his broad naturo repoatodly In his of,
i flclont acta. Tho faot that ho was
able1-to tako the part of tho Chlneso
and Jftpflrio30 In California and still
retain nis popularity snowB'iuis.
Roosevolt has shown his practica
bility by taking politics as they aro to
day and realizing that ideal condi
tions, do not oxlst and cannot exist
while men aro human. Ho Ijas taken
thorn as they are and trlod to purify
them Instead 'of overjooklng'tho bad.
Ho has shown his tact and 'diplo
macy in nearly all his. public acts.
Work on tho Panama canal was mado
possible by this characteristic. His
acta In international politics, and espe
cially the manner In whfch ho brought
about the peace conference at Ports
mouth! have also shown this.
It is being said that tho prosqnt
crisis has been brought about by tho
attacks of the president upon corpora
tions, It Is probably true that Roose
velt Is tho occasion of the crisis,, hut
ho is certainly not tho cause. The
$ouhtry was ready for a crls'is and the
crisis was needed,
A orlsis is moat necessary for the
proper expansion of -business, Pro

not bo made unless they did., and it is
