If you are fond of a good love story
the kind In which true-hearted,
clean spirited young people play the
principal rotes If you enjoy a bat
tie royal between two mighty forces
the Indomitable will of man and the
clever wits of a bright woman go to
see "The Lion and the Mouse" which
the United Play company will present
at the Steward Friday night. .
If-you wish a few suggestions con
cerning the. terrible part .that wealth
plays in the political, economical and
social life of our country you will And
them easily obtainable. And, If you
care for only a good -play so admir
ably played that It will give you an
j evening of thorough enjoyment, you
will not be disappointed.
In "The Lion and the Mouse" Chas.
Klein, the' author, has constructed a
play of exceptional strength and un
usual Interest. He has taken a sub
ject which keenly appeals to every
American citizen the acquiring of
wealth and Its concentration in the
hands of n few men. This, Mr. Klein
uses as a background for a love story
which wins and holds the ouiooKers
sympathy. At the same time ho has
driven home without preaching or
moralizing the fact or tne menace
which lies In the abuse of capital and
ofttimcs fearful results upon thoso
who misuse It, ityid those who oppose
Its misuse.
In the plot for a story Mr. Klein
has taken a judge who, after long and
faithful service on the bench, has
been impoverished, his honesty ques
tioned and his position placed In jeop
ardy, from llaving handed down a de
cision unfavorable to the great amal
gamated Interests of John Burkett
Ryder and hi fellows. . His' upright
ness, a thorn in the wie of the capl-1
talists, induces them to resort to a.
scheme to dishonor and depose him. J
Tine daughter of the judge retains'
from Europe Just as t'ae blow la'.ls, I
and, finding her father disgraced and J
In poverty, takes the matter Into her I
own hands.

Miss Green, who, of course, Is Shir
ley Rossmore, enters and there fol
lows a remarkably stimulating ea
counter between her and Ryder. De
lighted with her fraukness and clev
ewieBS he asks her to write his bio
graphy and puts her lu possession of
secret documents from which to get
the date. After being one of the mem
bers of his household for a consider
able length of time, the masters sub
jugation to hor cleverness and wit Is
so complete, that he asks her to mar
ry bis sou In order to kw p hi out
of the clutches of the daughter of the
hated Rossmores. Her keen sense of
womanhood and her love for Joffu-soi
will not allow her to further deceive
those wio have shown he i-i sural!
kindness and thereupon she admits
her Identity as being the ra! Miss
Rossmore.
Outwitted and cheated In his fond
est hopes Ryder in a fit nf exaspera
tion, orders her from his house,
whereupon the son . Jeffersou inter
feres, telling hU father bis determin
ation to leave with her and become
her husband. Here Shirley's pride
Interferes and she denounces Ryder,
Sr., assuring him that she would not
allow herself to fall so low as to mar
ry the son of a man who traxples all
good under his golden heel and who
refuses to lift hU hand to savo ber
father from unmerited disgrace. This
scene has been -unanimously conceded
by af critics to be one of the very
best Introduced In a drama of recent
years. Even the success of tbs play
of which everyone is familiar Is rea
son sufficient that all elates of theatre-goers
should not fall to s-e It.

A Few Reasons Why a Patriotic Citizen
Should Not Vote For Jonathan Bourne.
. COLONEL IBOOSEYELT AND ROUENE. , ... : . j
When Colonel Roosevelt, as president of the United States, wrote the kind of letters that are herewith
reprinted you may be sare there was ample cause fo his action. After reading the letters. It la haid for
you to come to any othr'ronclusion than that Oregon's senior senator, Jonathan Bourne, was thoroughly
Identified with the Standard Oil and that he was attempting to Intercede for the Standard Oil company with
, the president at that time. Ph ase note the tone of Colonel Roosevull'a words to this man who has pr'ena-
ed to represent Oregon in tie United States senate: (
"Sagamore Hill, Feb. 2,lfN)S.JIy
Dear Senator: I am sorry I could not
see you today, but I do not like to see
anyone on Sunday on business if It
can be avoided.
"As to what you told me the othet
evening about the Standard Oil people,
do remember that, while any propos
als they make will be considered In
an entirely frank and honorablo spirit
yet these proposals must be condition
ed upon absolute obedience to the law "
and must be laid in detail before tho
attorney-general and Frank B. Kel
logg before It would b? possible for .
me to express any ppinlon on them.
I know you understand this, but I
want you to be sure that the Standard
Oil people do not misunderstand It
and do not get the impression tli u it
was my desire or by my initiative that
negetiatlons have been entered Into
with them by you or by anyone, or
that there will.be any failures to lay
.the matter In full detail beforo Mr. '
Bonaparte and Mr. Kellogg. With re
gards, believe me, sincerely yours,
"THEODORE ROOSEVELT."
, ' "Oyster Bay, N. Y., July 3, 1308
My Dear Senator: Mr. Loeblius trans
mitted to mo your telephone message
as to Mr. Kellogg submitting a writ
ten memorandum. My dear stfnator, let
me repent In writing what I have suld
again and again to Mr. Archbold ant!
to you and what I stated at miK.b
length In our interview of Inst "it
day. In my Judgment, It Is not only
a waste of time, but inadvisable to try
to carry on negotiations through you
as Intermediary.
"Let the Standard Oil lawyres. any
or all of them as Mr. Archbold or Mr.
Rockefeller or ayone tlse may choose,
decide as to the course they wish to
follow, and then communicate direct
to Mr. Kellogg or the attorney-general.
I read you what Mr. Bonaparte wrote
me, which I had previously read to
Mr. Kellogg, and I furnished you with
a copy of it. You now Inform Mr. Loeb
that this Is (not specific enougn. it
was not meant to be specific. It was
not meant to, show you. It was meant
by Mr. Bonaparte to advise me as iO
what Tie and Mr. Kellogg thought was
. the proper course to follow. 1 read.lt
to you so that you might understand
what the attitude of the department of
Justice was, and when I rVad It to you
I explained explicitly to Mr. Archbold
and yourself what I have now put In
writing -above, namely, that it is un
desirable to attempt to carry out ne
gotiations through you, and that the
proper person for you to communicate
with was not me, but Air. Bonaparte
or Mr. Kellogg. Then an appeal can
always be made to me; but obviously
the first thing to do is to have the
counsel of the Standard Oil communi
cate with tlw counsel of the depart
ment of Justice, Mr. Kellogg, or with
Mr.. Bonaparte himself. Sincerely
yours,
"THEODORE 1 C JSEVELT.'
A Pt'inocrut'ti Opinion of Ronnie.
"When the Pnyn"?-Aldrlch tariff bill
was being considered Bourne admit
ted on the floor of the senate tliut he
did not. know anything about the tar
iff, but left that with Aldrlch with
whom he voted In nearly every In
stance. Neither do we want a man In
the United States senate who is so
close to the Standard Oil company
an intermediary, if you please, for
that corporation." Walter M. Pl-rce,
