Private Dear Theodore: Needless to say everyone here, literally everyone, Is with you heart and soul on the Booker Washington matter. Needless for me to say how utterly right I think you Ate- But I confess the southern outbreak Is to me melancholy and disappointing. 1 am always hoping that they will learn and broaden and then comes a thing like Ihis showing the narrow stolidity and imperiousness which are ao disheartening. But they surely will learn and we must go on hoping, l/ove tn Edith. Ever yra, H. C. DODGE. • WHITE HOUSE, Washington, Oct. 28. 1901. Personal. Dear Cabot: The Booker T. Washington Incident was to me so much a mstter of course that I regarded its sole Impor tance as consisting in the view It gave one of the continued existenoe of that combination of Bourbon Intellect and Intolerant truculence of aplrlt, through much of the south, which brought on the civil war. If these creatures had any sense they would understand that they can't bluff me. They can't even make me abandon my policy of ap pointing decent men to ofllce tn their own localities. Dove to Nannie. Faithfully yours, THEODORE ROOSEVELT. Hon. Henry Cabot Dodgs, Nahant, Mass. * EAST POINT, Nahant, Nov. 1, 1301. Private. Dear Theodore: Vou take exactly the view of the Booker Washington Incident tliat I did and. of course. 1 knew that all they raid would not deflect you one hair In your policy. Indeed In that i aspect It has strengthened your ha nds. Vou know, of course, thst the chair manship of foreign relations is the only thing 1 desire. I believe, too, ills I 1 could be of more service to you and your administration theta than anywhere else or than anyone else. If t'lillom* open* th •''(eel. you van of mr e may ptv nat you earn hope he will . n the Interstate i vtnmerre. but I had rather give up every place I have and all proapects of lhe chairmanship I want so much than have you for nty sake say or do anything which could embarrass you in the faintest degree with any sen ator. My fortunes and opportunities are of mighty little consequence com pared lo the success of your adminis tration end a friendly senate Is one of the elements of success. ( am with you in all events. Other senators are th# ones to look after. Rest love always to Kdith. Ever yours, h. r. i„ •Senator Shelby fcf. Cultom of Illinois. !\ a. SENATE CHAMBER. Washington, 1>. C„ Dec. 3, 3901. Dear Theodore: Tho message was fine—all I ex pected, which is saying a great deal— and 1 am very proud of your first ut terance as president. I have never eeen an annual message followed with so much intereBt and attention In the senate and I am told it was even more marked in the house. Ever yours, H. C.

H. C. I,. SOMERSET CLUB, Boston, En route to New York, August 20, 1002. Dear Theodore: I had a note from Holmes telling me what he had written you. The very firstrate man who is to succeed him as justice has put the idea in his head that tf he remains as justice it will be Interpreted that he does not want the supreme bench. 1 wrote him (hat he would he c o n f i r m e d unanimously, that unless you desired to appoint him in the recese, which was not unusual tn appointments to the supreme tourt, the proper and dignified and natural thing for him to do was to remain chief justice until his name had gone Into the senate and was con firmed. No one. 1 wrote him, would Interpret it as meaning that he did not want to be associate justice for everyone knew that he would accept f nd that his name would not go in otherwise. Therefore. J said, be at peutce and do not reBign the chief Justiceship until you are nominated to ihe senate and confirmed, or until 'oti receive a recess appointment, which latter event Is not likely to oc »ur. T trust, sire, that thle advice, founded on truth and wisdom, will meet your approbation. Best love to Edith. Ever yours, H. C. HODGE.

This, ss coming from the Hpringfleld Republican, I regarded as distinctly encouraging and indicating that your choice la perhaps wiser than yju realise.

Elihu Root, Henry Cahot Lodge, and George Turner, Memhere of the Alaskan Boundary Tribunal. Mrs: ( have appointed you as the Amerl win representative? of the tribunal to determine the boundary between the territory of Alaska and the British possessions in North America 1 write you now because, according to reports In the public press, air Wil fred Laurler, the Canadian premier, has recently in open parliament made a speech upon the question which Is in effect a mandate authoritatively nnd officially given hv him to the two Canadian members of the tribunal. In this speech he sets forth the claim? which he apparently expects the Canadian members of the trlbu nal to uphold as advocates rather than to consider as judges. Inas much as in my judgment I regard this claim as untenable, and inas much as further the position taken by Mr. Ijiurler, and presumably therefore by the two Canadian mem bers, is as far removed as possible from the judicial, 1 feel that I should briefly rail your attention to my view of tile question which you have to decide. You will of course impartially judge the questions that come before you for decision. The claim so roundly asserted by Mr. I,aurler—and there fore presumably to be upheld by the Canadian commissioners—that Is, the claim to Skagway and Dyea, and therefore of course Pyramid harbor, Is not in my judgment one of those which can properly be considered open to discussion. The treaty of 18?5 between Russia and England was undoubtedly intended to rut. off England, which owned the hinterland, front access to the sea. The word Lisiere used In the treaty means the strip of territory bordering all the navigable water of that portion of the Alaskan coast affected by the treaty, and this strip of lerrltory is American of rourse. Equally, of :-ourse, in interpreting the treaty a prime consideration Is the way in which all authorities interpreted it for the 60 years immediately succeed ing its adoption. There is pntlre room for discussion and judicial and impartial agreement as to the exact boundary in any given locality—that Is as to whether In such locality the boundary Is to be pushed back 10 ma rine leagues, or whether there is In actual fact nearer (he coast a moun tain chain which can be considered as running parallel to it. In the principle Involved there will of course be no compromise. The question Is not in my judgment one In which it is possible for a moment to consider a reconciling of conflict ing claims by mutugl concessions. It is to determine whether the theory upon which Russia uniformly treated the boundary during her entire period of possession; upon which the I'nitcd Stales has uniformly treated It ever since it acquired the territory, and upon which England uniformly treat ed it for over 60 year* after the treaty was adopted, and according to which all the English as distinguished from the Canadian cartographers have since continued to treat It, Is right in Its entirety or wrong in lls entirety.

By ARTHUR BRISBANE, v_ 1da Tarbcll is writing another hook to attack the Standard Oil of Indiana. Too late for that; we are used to “octopuses” and we don't mind them. When the Old Standard Oil was said to be worth a thousand mil lions everybody shivered and some cried "horror.” Now one little branch of the Old Standard Oil in Indiana is worth in its new combi nation more than five hundred mil lions, and it is not the biggest Standard Oil unit. The country no lorgger asks: “How much money havelyou?” but rather, “What do you dio with the money you have?” The Rockefellers on the whole appear to be doing pretty well, with their foundations, their fight against disease, all the way from “Paris to Peking and from Peking to Rome.” Also in1 Central Amer ica and all over the globe. The Rockefellers don’t squander their money, don't set a bad exam ple, don’t take scores of men away from useful work to wait on them. It Doesn't make mus difference how much they have if it pays taxes and doesn't corrupt govern ment. Count Karolyi, now in America, was before the war one of the rich est men in Hungary, worth perhaps thirty millions. He was the first president of the Hungarian republic. Hie entire fortune was confiscated. He came to this country to join his wife, g^nddaughter of the gTeat Hun garian statesman, Andrassy, prime minister of Hungary 58 years ago. In a few days Count Karolyi leaves for England, where he will speak in public concerning the af fairs of his country and other coun tries. Great Britain, which is a democracy, will be amused to learn that while in the United States Karolyi was forbidden, by the gov ernment, to make public speeches. Why was he forbidden? Heaven only knows. Somebody over here who still has forty millions prob ably didn't want him to talk. In England, where they have brains and a democracy, they are not afraid of free speech. Newspapers in New York are filled with groaning about immoral plays. The thing to worry about i* not the immoral play, but the immoral audience. When red Indians tortured a vic tim, the worst part of the per formance was not the torture, but the fact that the entire Indian vil lage intensely enjoyed the horrible spectacle, approved and joined in the torture. The disgusting thing ahout an immoral play is the audience. And New York supplies many disgusting audiences. Politics in New York state may interest the whole country. Wads worth, whose term soon ends, mav fight Governor Al Smith for his seat in the senate. Governor Smith will be fighting, not for a mere senatorship. but to show that he has New Y’ork state in the hollow of his hand, and thus make himself the “logical” demo cratic candidate for president in 1928. If Senator Wadsworth wants an interesting fight he need only try to beat Smith in New York. “Noted Citizens Ask President Coolidge to Outlaw War.” Howr would you go about out lawing war? How would you keep Austria from declaring war on little Serbia, following the murder of an Austrian heir to the throne? How would you keep Germany from declaring war on France now, if she had the money, weapons and flying machines? How would you keep Japan from declaring war on the United States, if -I a part thought it her duty to change our mind* about Asiatic im migration? You can't outlaw war, but you can do much to prevent it. The way to prevent war i* to be ready for it. Ten thousand first-class flying machine*, with pood pilots, half of them swift pursuit planes, the other half heavy bombing planes, woul 1 do more for peace than all the sighs, groans and solemn nonsense about “outlawing war.” (I'ojtyrSicht. ) If your belt'* fort> ami you want to reduce, Just buy a bic orange And live on the juice.
