CL ., 01ns_Aniswers Nuire5:0, Protests. Washington, Nov. 13.-In answ to one of the numerous protests whi have been received at the Whil House against the new gold coir which have been coined without tl words "In God We Trust," Pres dent Roosevelt has written a lett which he today made public. The le ter follows: "When the question of the ne coinage came up, we looked into th law and found there no warrant ther in for putting 'In God We Trust,' 0 the coins. As the custom, althoug without legal warrant, had grown ui howev.,r, I might have been left liberty I t en the inscription had approved C; i,l eirg on the coina But as I did not al>prove of it, I di not direct that it should again be pi on. Of course, as a matter of lat 't absolutelv in the hands of coiigres and any direction of eongress in th matter will be immediately obeve At present, as I have said, there is n warrant in law for the inscription. "My own feeling in the matter due to my very firm conviction ths to put a motto on coins or to uS it in any kindred manner, not onl does no good, but does positive han and is in effeet irreverence vthic eomes dangerously close to sacrileg A beautiful and solemn sentence suc as the one in question should be treal ed only with that fine reverene which necessarily implies a certai exaltation of spirit. Any use whic tends to cheapen it, and, above al any use which tends to secure its b( ing treated in a spirit of levity. - from every standpoint profoundly t be regretted. It is a motto -whic it is indeed well to have inscribed o our great national monuments in ou temples of justice, in our legislativ halls and in buildings such as those a West Point and Annapolis-in shor wherever it will tend to 'arouse an inspire a lofty emotion in those wh look thereon. But it seem's to m eminently unwise to cheapen such motto in use of coins, just as it woul to, cheapen it by use on postag tersor in advertising. As re gards its use on coins, we have actuw experience by which to go. In all m life I have never heard any huma being speak reverently of this mot't on the e.oins or show any sign of .i having adppealed to any high emotio in him. But I have literally hur dreds of times heard it used as an o< casion of, and incitements to, tb sneering ridicule which it is.. albo all things, undesirable that so beat tiful and exalted a phrase shoul excite. For example, throughout tb long contest, extending over severn decades, on the free pcoinage questi<p the - existence of this motton on t coins was a constant source of Je and ridicule:; and this was unavoi< able. Every one must remember tb innumerable cartoons and art-iel based on phrases like 'In God W Trust for the Other Eight Cents; 'In God We Trust for the Shoi Weight;' 'In GoQ We Trust for th Thirty-seven Cent~s We Don't Pay and so forth. Surely I am well wit] in bounds when I say' that a use c the phrase which invites constant l< vity of this type is most undesirable If congress alters th~e law and direci me to replace on the coins the ser tence in question. the direction wi be put into effect. but I very eari estly trust that the religious sent menit of the country, the spirit of r< erence in the country, will preve any such action being taken. ''Sincerely yours, ''Theodore Roosevelt.'' UN~DBSEEVED EBFLBCTION. New York Clergyman Accused< Stealing Country Dog. A New York clergyman, wvho ofte spends his vacation in fishing ti streams of the Adirondacks, was C one trip adopted by a handsome se ter dog, which insisted on followir him from camp to camp, as he move along the stream.
