SEEDSMAN USES FISTS. 



[From the Portland, Ore., Oregonlan.] 

 . "Koosevelt deserved all he got. He 

 should have had it long ago! " 



"Bang." 



And the fist of a righteously indig- 

 nant man made an excellent reply full 

 in the face of the speaker. 



Such was the outcome of a very few 

 words exchanged between J.. J. Butzer, 

 a seedsman of 188 Front street, and 

 tbd man who was discussing the situa- 

 tion with him. 



In reply to a query as to whether the 

 report was true that he really had 

 dealt out summary justice in this way, 

 Mr. Buteer said: 



"Why, certainly, I hit him, but what 

 do you want to make all the fuss about 

 it fori You'd have done the same 

 yourself. ' ' 



"I think any man would," he added, 

 "or at least any man with a drop of 

 red blood in his veins. 



"I am an ardent Bull Mooser, you 

 bet your life, but, sir, that would not 

 prevent me from doing the same if a 

 man came up to me and said that it 

 was a good thing Taft or Wilson had 

 got shot. I'd have done the same. So 

 would you." 



And Mr. Butzer evidently was still 

 nursing tender recollections of the af- 

 fray, just as his opponent must have 

 been doing, though in a more material 

 way. 



"Did he go down, sir?" and his lis- 

 teners waited breathlessly for the 

 answer. 



"Yes, sir, down Second street. And 

 that's all there is to it. I hit him be- 

 cause I cannot see how any man with 

 a trace of a thought for his country 

 could condone such an act as that, 

 whether to a political friend or to a 

 political foe."
