ROOSEVELT THROWS
DOWN GAUNTLET
Boldly Challenges His Political
Opponents to Come Out in
the Open and Fight
Syracuse, N. T. Coming into the
ctronghold of opposition, ex-President
Theodore Roosevelt boldy challenged
the opponents of his political doctrines
to come out in the open and fight it
they dared. He prophetically said
that If they did they would be beaten.
"The new nationalism," he stated.
"means nothing but in application to
new conditions of certain old and fun
damental morali'les. It means an in
vitation to meet the new problems of
the present day in precisely the spirit
in which Lincoln and the men of his
day met their new problems."
The ex-president also gave warm
commendation to President Taft as a
public officiaj and expressed his ap
proval of several of the accomplish
ments of the Taft administration. Col
onel Roosevelt did not indorse the ad
ministration as a whole. What he did
have to say, however, placed him on
record for the first tiuie in regard to
many more of the important features
of It, breaking the silence which he
had maintained rteadfastly on the bud
Ject, except for his few brief refer
ences to his successor made when he
was on his w estern trip.
He also defended his recent criti
cisms of two decisions ot the Unltet'
States Supreme Court, made in t
speech In Denver, Colo., and quoted
the words of William H. Taft, wrltter.
when he .was a Judge, to support his
contention that the people have tn
right to criticise decisions of the court

COAST DEFENSE IS
WEAK SAYS EVANS
Portland Rear Admiral Robley D.
Evans, "Fighting Bob," as he is more
familiarly known, who is making a
tour of the Pacific Coast, in an inter
view stated that "The Pacific Coast is
without defense and would be at the
mercy of an enemy in the event of an
attack. The Atlantic has protection
and I see no reason why the Pacific
should not be equally protected.
"The Pacific Coast should have 16
battleships with all the 'trimmings,'
which mean eight armored cruisers,
ADMIRAL EVANS. .
one ammunition ship, four colliers or
ships carrying fuel, 16 torpedo boats
and six submarines.
"What Is the use of comparing our
navy with that of Japan? Japan Is
not the only nation to be reckoned
with. Japan has Its fleet of warships
in Japan, Germany has its fleet at
Te'.ng Tau, the English have a fleet
at Hongkong, and the French a fleet
at Saigon.. We have none in the Pa
cHic ocean and our western coast is
defenseless."
Rear Admiral Evans is In better
health than he has been for some time.
He has thrown away his crutches,
which were for temporary use only,
and does not even depend upon his
cane to any great extent
Refcpeptables" In Peril.
