THE MORNING OREGONIAN. SATURDAY. APRIL 13. 190T. ANY MAN'S EQUAL E Roosevelt Showed Skill in Ex posing Wall-Street Con spiracy. BLUNDERS OF PLOTTERS Tried fnderhand Game, Which Cotild Not Defeat Public Opin ion and Trusted Bibulous and Slippery Senator Penrose. ORHOONIAX NEWS BCTtBATJ, Wwh lngton, April 6. When It comes to playing the gam of politics, Theodore Roosevelt I a resourceful as any of the more experienced men who have taken up arms against hiin. and he is many times morp powerful than the .best of them. Mr. Roosevelt power grows out of the fact that the public has Implicit con IKteflca in him. That is the entire secret of his strength. And before the Harrl-man-Knrkefeller-HeArat-Wall-atreet crowd can obliterate Mr. Roosevelt, it muat shake publlo confidence in the man. Of ail political blunders of the age, none compare with the 16.000,000 con Fptracy that waa unwittingly given away by Senator Penrose of Pennsylvania. The scheme, had It been allowed to develop, might have done Borne Injury to the President, but it Is very doubtful If it would have had the effect sought. It was an underhand game through and through, and the friends of Roosevelt, who admire him for his fair and open play, would not be readily fooled by It. Such a game would have been a right of money against honor, and the Ameri can public, after the exposures of the pay two years, are not in a mood to allow their views to be swayed by the money power, no matter how adroitly that power is concealed. Gang Aant a Reactionary. Mr. Harriman. Mr. Rockefeller, Mr. Hearst and in fact all of Wall street are aware of the continual growth of senti ment in favor of forcing Mr. Roosevelt to accept a aecond elective term. They are also aware that the President him self Is not encouraging this movement, but that he la very anxious that the man nominated to succeed him shall be a man absolutely committed to Roosevelt policies; a man who will keep up the fight asrainst corrupt corporations; who will pursue the railroads until they show a due respect for the law and for the rights of the public; a man who will be absolutely beyond the influence of Wall street. "The gang" wants to block both the second elective term movement and the plan of the President to force the nomi nation of a strong man in 1908. "The gang" wants a reactionary in the White House; a man who will have an ear for what Wall street says; a man who will let up on the railroads and drop the prosecution of the corporations that had everything their own way until Mr. Roosevelt appeared on the scene. But the gang Is more fearful that Mr. Roose velt may be renominated than it Is that he will dictate to the next convention. The gang might bo ahle to do something, even with a man satisfactory to the President, but It can never hope to do anything with Mr. Roosevelt. He Is against It first, last and all the time, and U knows that It has not the power either to bluff him off or win him over. That is why it has plotted to un dermine publlo confidence, and why it is willing to expend a large sum in accom plishing the result, Whor Conspirators Blundered. Where Mr. Harriman and Wall street blundered was In taking Mr. Penrose Into their confidence, and it is very surpris ing that they should have done so. Mr. Penrose has been publicly professing to be the strongest kind of a Roosevelt man. tuit at heart he has been against the President and naturally would be. Mr. Fenroe is a machine politician; he has played politics according to the old Quay rules tthat ls( to the best of his limited ability. He was a politician of the cor rupttonlst type: he used money In his campaigns; he adopted high-handed pro ceedings whenever he deemed it neces sary. When he had the power, he let '"the public be damned," and then, when p reform swept over Pennsylvania and threatened the annihilation of the Quay machine, Mr. Penrose suddenly turned to Mr. Roosevelt, begged for the support of the administration and. when he got it, posed as an out-and-out Rdosevelt man. Put it was the same Penrose, only he wore a mask. Mr. Penrose did not fool everybody by his switch; he did not fool Mr. Roosevelt, nor the people of Pennsylvania. In his egotism he may have believed that the President had numbered him among his advisers, but. if so, he fooled himself. The President took a hand In the last Pennsylvania campaign not on account of Mr. Penrose or to save Mr. Penrose, but to aid and save the Republican party, and he could not aid the party without aiding M r. Penrose, who was t hen t he rec ognixed head. Mr. Penrose was a mere Incident or accident. The President would have done as much had any other man been the nominal leader. But the Presi dent did tolerate Mr. Penrose and per mit him to name a great many Federal appointees, all because Mr. Penrose was the recognlxed head of the Republican or ganization. Penrose o Longer Trusted. Of course Mr. Penrose will do his best to restore himself to what he believed to be his position close to the President. But it will be an enormous task. The probabilities are that Mr. Penrose will find himself a man without a following. He has been held up before the country Jn a most unfavorable light. Posing as the friend of the President, he waa actually conspiring with the President's most bitter enemies. On top of that he so far forgets himself at a little dinner in Washington as to allow wine to get the better of his wits; he blurts out secrets that were never expected to pass hi Up. and then, when the story comes out, goes to his friends who were present and asks them what he did say. But to the public he denies all know ledge of the conspiracy; to the public he denies having attended the dinner; to the publlo he professes his utmost friendship for the President. His explanation does not explain or coincide with the explanations of his close friends who know all the facts. That Is not the type of man who Is trusted by the President, consulted by htm in formulating public policies. Nor. In fact. U It the kind of man who will again be trusted by the conspiring capi talists who are longing to wipe Mr. Roosevelt off the political map. i U'er Political Trick. It has been many a long day since so clever a political trick was turned as the ex posu re o f Wa 11 s t reet ' s SS.000.000 eonsplra-. That event demonstrated the resourcefulness of the President; it demonstrated his ability to keep tab even on the secret plotttngs of his enemies, and the manner in which the exposure was made shows that the President Is POLITICAL GAM not alow to recognlxe a psychological moment. Of course that plot will not be revived: there would be no use in reviving it. Mr. Roosevelt and his friends know the game, they have ex posed the hand of their enemies, and that Is the end of it. Wall street could not put through such a scheme if It played openly and fairly; and now that the exposure has been made, there Is only one way to carry on the fight In the open. If there are any more con spiracles, the administration is going to find them out and exposure will follow. Mr. Roosevelt Is a dangerous man for such enemies to tackle, simply because he Insists on fighting in the open. The flurry that followed the Penrose exposure will soon be no more than a memory In the public ' mind, and when the incident is forgotten the President will demonstrate that he is pursuing his jsame old course; pursuing the railroads that have no regard for the public; pur suing corporations generally that have no respect for the law. and his same policy of publicity Is bound to bring him success. The Penrose affair will go down in history as an interesting sidelight to Mr. Roosevelt's fight for the rights of the people: the body of the history will be written about his enforcement of the law against crooked corporations. THREE HOLDUPS ONE NIGHT Butte Knjoys Kxplolts of Quartette of Masked Robbers. BUTTE. April 12. Three holdups of saloons is the record for Butte for the past IK hours. Four masked men raided the Moonlight saloon during the early morning hours, securing about $100. Four customers were lined up against the wall and their pockets turned inside out. Three masked bandits participated In the holdup of the Olson saloon. In this resort three inmates were robbed, the outlaws securing about $5.

Judge Land Is stated that he had concluded 439 of the- counts were bad and these he ruled out, leaving 1463 that will go to the jury. Attorney Rosenthal then moved that the prosecution be instructed to signify on which one of the 1463 counts the Gov ernment will try its case. Judge Land Is refused to consider the matter at this time, saying that If the verdict of the jury be guilty, then the question might be taken up. District Attorney Sims then began his argument.

E. Argyle, of Denver, Col orado, President of Knights and Ladies of Golden Precept, thanks Warner's Safe Cure for her restora tion to health, after a siege of pains in the back cansed by diseased kidneys. "About a year ago my health wm completely run down, nerves shattered, had frequently dizzy spells, back ache, and had to pass my water frequently and with great Irritation. The doctor pronounced it kidney and bladder trou ble and 1 was under his care for two months. Failing of results, resolved 10 try Warner's Safe Cure, which had come to me very highly recommended.
