I am saying this by way of Introduction because I want to say something very serious to our people and especially to the newspapers. "I don't know who the man was who shot me tonight He was seized by one of my stenographers. Mr. Martin, and I suppose is In the hands of the police now. He shot to kill me. I am just going to show you. (Colonel Roosevelt then un buttoned his coat and vest and showed his white shirt badly stained with blood). Now friends I am going to be as quiet as possible even If I am not able to give the challenge of the bull moose quite as loudly. Now I do not know who he was or what party he represented. He was a coward. He stood in the darkness in the crowd around the automobile, and when they cheered mo and I got up to bow he stepped forward and shot me In the breast ( Vicious Minds Inflamed. "It Is a very natural thing that weak and vicious minds should be Inflamed to acts of violence by the kind of foul mendacity and abuse that have been heaped upon me for the last three months by the papers in the interests not only of Mr. Debs, but of Mr. Wilson and Mr. Taft. Friends, I will disown and re pudiate any man of my party who at tacks with such Vile, foul slander and abuse any opponents of any other party. Now I wish to say seriously to the speak ers and to the newspapers representing both the republican and democratic and socialist parties that they cannot, month In and month out, year in and year out, make the kind of slanderous, bitter and malevolent assaults that they have made and not expect that brutal violent char acters, especially when the brutality is accompanied by a not too strong mind, they cannot expect that such natures will be unaffected by It 'I am not speaking for myself at all, I give you my word, I do not care a rap about being shot, not a rap. I have had a good many experiences In my time, and this Is only one of them. What I do care for Is my country. I wish I were able to impress on our people the duty to feel strongly, but to speak truthfully of their opponents. I say now I have never said on the stump one word against any opponent that I could not defend in the laboratory. I have said nothing that I could not substantiate, and nothing I ought not to have said, nothing that, looking back, I would'nt say again. "I am all right." on chest wall.
