The Eurprise of one who loves -his country and cherishes the memory of the great men who have honored it will not surpass his humiliation when he is reminded of the viciottp, persistent and unwarranted attacks which President Roosevelt in his books has made upon eo many of his distinguished predeces sors. In hiB "Winning of the West," "Naval War of 1812" and "Thomas H. Benton" he denounces Thomas Jefferaon aa "vacillating," "timid," "shifty doctri naire," incompetent," "ungrateful," in triguing against Washington," "secretly aiding French," his influence "distinctly evil," declaring that he was "constitu tionally unable to put the proper value on truthfulness" and that he "was the most incapable Executive that ever filled the Presidential chair." He denounces Madison as "timid," "incapable," "a ridiculously incompetent leader for a war with Great Britain," his administration as "feeble" and accuses him of "imbecile incapacitj" and of bringing "shame and disgrace to Amer ica" in the war of 1S12. He denounces Monroe as a mere "figurehead" President, with "no special ability," and declares that his adminis tration as Secretary of War under Madi- Bon was a "triumph of imbecility to the last." He denounces Andrew Jackson as a "figurehead," "ignorant," "managed by politicians," "low politicians.molded him to their will," and declared that his ad ministration "corrupted the public ser vice in every way." He denounces Van Buren as sordid, odious, corrupt, declar ing that "he faithfully served the mam mon of unrighteousness," that "he suc ceeded because of and not in spite of his moral shortcomings." He denounces Harrison, Taylor and Fillmore as "small Presidents." He de nounces Tyler as a "politician of monu mental littleness," and declares that ho was "peevish and puzz'eheaded" and that to "call him a mediocre man is un warranted flattery." He denounces Polk as "the very small est, excepting Tyler, of the line of small Presidents who came in between Jack son and Lincoln" and declared that he gathered to him the "vicious, corrupt and criminal." He denounces Pierce as a "truckling, time-serving, Northern politician" and a "small politician of low capacity and mean surroundings " He denounces Buchanan as a "truck ling, time-serving politician, fit repre sentative of the sordid and odious politi cal organization of Pennsylvania." "One who has such a profound con tempt for those who have gone before him can not hope," says a Washington City writer, "to merit the respect of those who shall come after him. I know not what place in the life of our Repub lic posterity may accord him, but what ever be has done, whatever he may do, one thing is certain, history will mark Theodore Roosevelt out in unique and Bhameless solitude as the relentless de famer of our nation's Prepidents."
