On the brink of eternity, a God-given instinct compels honesty in the human heart; compels a man to be nest with himself; honest with his fellows. : ~ It is on this basis that we must judge Theodore Roosevelt NOW. And Roosevelt’s speech and actions, as the shot of the assassin’s gun in his ears, as the leaden bullet pierced his breast, prove, beyond doubt, his sincerity, his almost superhuman courage, his GREATNESS. The Star has said many kind things about Roosevelt since he cast his lot with the people and so fearlessly championed their cause. To- The Star feels like repeating all these things, and The Star believes that all Seattle will join with The Star in so doing, For plain, unaffected bravery, the way Roosevelt met the assassin’s attempt towers above the way any public man ever before faced h. Inthe hour of a great peril, no man could have acted the part of MAN better than did he. - Roosevelt saw the flash of the madman’s gun calmly, without fear; viewing his own blood from a wound, no one knew how serious, he poke to a vast and excited audience bravely, without a show of the melodramatic, boldly, yet without malice, without complaint, but with wtion, With sincerity and with love.
