Theodore 'Roosevelt sat la box at Carnegie Hall when Mr. Hushes de livered his speeoti ot acceptance and vigorously applauded every telling point. The Colonel repeatedly arose and 'bowed In response to the cheers for him and the ehouts of "Teddy!" "Tod dy!" "Hurrah for Teddy!", and when the meeting adjourned he made the loliowlng statement: "It is an admirable speech and 1 wish to cali attention to the following pjinis: "1 em particularly pleased with the exposure of the folly, and worse than folly, of Mr. Wilson's Mexican policy and of the way In which thl3 policy ha. hrnnrhf hnmllhitlnn to tl Hnltorl NCVV MoxiCOi S!Ales a"d disaster to Mexico itself. f AJoreover. 1 urn vinrv ir ad f tfia c - - - " straight for ward manner la which Mr. Hughes has shown the ridicule with which Mr. Wilson has covered this na tion by the manner in which he al lowed foreign powers to gain the im- preubion that although he used the strongest words in diplomacy they were not to be taken teriously. Not Worda Which Count. "As Mr. Hughes said, it is not words but the strength and resolution behind the words which count. As Mr. Hughes pointed out, there i3 no do-jbt that if Mr. Wilson's conduct and ac tion had been euch as to make the foreign nations believe that ha meant precisely what he said in his 'strict accountability' there would have been no destruction of American lives by the sinking of the Lusitania. "When Mr. Hughes uses 6trong words his record shows that they are always backed by strong deeds, and therefore in the enormous majority of cases the use of strong words renders It unnecessary ever to have recourso to strong deeds. "Again, Mr. Hughes speaks in char- Straightforward fash- Ion of the outrages coiuutiued on mu nitions plants, and all men, whether citizens of foreign nations or nominal citizens of our own land, who had In any shape or way abetted or condoned those actions can understand that Mr. Hughes, if President, will protect those domestic American Interests and punish offenders againet them with the fearlessness and thoroughness that he thowed in dealing with the powers of evil at Albany. Drought Nation to Ignominy. "Just before coming in to listen to Mr. Hughes' JuBt characterization of Mr. Wilson's failure to protect the lives sud property of Americans in Mexico and on the high seas, I hap pened to pick up John Flske's "Critical Period of American History," and waa struck by the following two eentencea: " 'A government touches the lowest point of ignominy when It confesses Its Inability to protect the lives a'nd the propm-ty of its citizens. A gOT eminent which has come to this has, failed in discharging the primary func tion of government and forthwith' ceasea to bar any reason for exist ing.' ! "Mr. Hughes has pointed out In his speech with self-restraint, but with I emphasis, that it is precisely this I primary function which Mr. Wilson'ij Administration has failed to discharge and that it is precisely this point of Ignominy to which he has reduced the cation over which be la President" Phrases which will NOT oc cur In the Woodrow Wlloon speech of acceptances Psychological prosperity.

I do not put life and property on the same footing, but the Administration has not only teen remise with respect to tie protection of American lives; it H has been remiss with respect to the protects n of American property and American oom nvarce.
