Election Clash
WASHINGTON, V March 20.
The long $bB,urfl question of
whether the la-Prestdent Roose

of Ohio erer composed htelr cele

.1, The BrowusTlU riot, as.it was
men c&iiea, lnToiTeu neiro iroop
of the rerular army. It assumed
the proportions of, a nationwide
controyersy when : President
Rooserelt dismissed a whole bat
talion. Senator Foraker, one of
the stalwart Republican leaders of
his day, and one of the circle of
confidants which surrounded
President McKinley, occupied a
position with President Rooserelt
until the two men differed over
the merits of the President's
wholesale dismissal of at least
some of the Negro troops.
Senator Foraker assailed Pres
ident Roosevelt's course openly in
the senate and the President had
struck back in characteristic fash
ion. The smouldering volcano
did not come into full eruption,
however, until an occasion in Jan
liarr. 1909. when both men were
l guests at a Gridiron Club dinner
li la Washington.

Sithat "reporters never are pres-
Everything said and done
'under the rose" and public
men on those occasions, relieved
of the prospect" of public eyes and
ears, throw off their restraints
and speak their minds.
" The Roosevelt-Foraker tilt sup
plied the second instance of which
there is record in which what was
said in confidence at a Gridiron
Club dinner got into print.
President Roosevelt for 30 min
' ales deliverer! characteristic shafts
at SenaC f braker, and although
the Presldc on such occasions is
supposed to be' the last speaker,
the toastmastertoi the. evening lm
med lately called on Senator For
aker to reply. The Senator did
for 28 minutest while 300 specta
tors held their breaths for what
was described as a battle between
gladiators.
Neither spared words or per
sonalities and the report of the
proceedings says that when Presi
dent Roosevelt attempted to reply
in rebuttal to Senator Foraker he
was almost drowned out by the"
hum of conversation among the
excited diners.
'As a result of that occasion
friendship between the two men
was suspended. Their hostility
became so much talked about In
the news of the day that It furn
ished the material for cartoons,
quips and even stage jokes.
Srf far as anyone knows. It re
mained thus qntil 1912 when, a
few .months before Col. Roose
velt's nomination at the Chicago
Progressive Convention, he wrote
Senator Foraker complimenting
him. on his pamphlet on the au
thorship of the Sherman anti
trust law and at its conclusion in.

Governor Walter M. Pierce found time from executive duties to pilot the Fordson "iron horse"
for a few turns around the state penitentiary farm, during the Fordson day tractor demonstration put
on by the Valley Motor company. Governor Pierce is seen here at the wheel of the modern farm im
plement. Sam A. Kozer, secretary of state, is seen standing second to the right of the governor, and
Manager Phillips of the Valley Motor company is back of Mr. Kozer, to the right.
The committee of Judges were Walter M. Pierce, governor, Sam A. Kozer, secretary of state; Oliver
Pi Coshow, supreme court justice, Frank Durbin. Jr . Leroy Hewlett, Walter Taylor, farmer at the peni
tentiary, and F. A. Doerfler, farm advisor of the First National Bank.

vlting Senator. Foraker to call. 1
The senator, apparently wiping
out old scores, wrote a friendly
reply, but declined the colonel's
invitation, because, he wrote: "I
have some fear that knowledge of
such a call, if it should get into
the newspapers, might be exploit
ed in such a way as to cause em
barrassment to both of us. Some
other time when circumstances are
more propitious I shall drop in
for a few minutes in memory of
old times."
The printed record of their cor
respondence shows no more until
1916 when Senator Foraker sent
Colonel- Roosevelt his two vol
umes of meroirs and the Colonel
acknowledged them in a letter in
which he expressed what Senator
Froaker's' friends may regard as
an amende.
Colonel Roosevelt In quite a
lengthy letter which contained
other refreences. wrote:
"Not only do I admire your en
tire courage and straightforward
ness (in the railway rate legisla
tion I respected you a thousand
times more than I did many of
the men who voted for the bill)
but I also grew steadily more and
more to -realize your absolute
Americanism and your capacity
for generosity and disinterested
ness." w
Then at its conclusion Colonel
Roosevelt penned the following
paragraph which will be of inter
est to both his friends and Sena
tor Foraker's and of special in
terest to the latter 's. He wrote:
"There is no use raking up the
past - now, but there were some
things told me against you, or in
reference to you, which (when I
consider what I know now about
my Informants) would have car
ried no weight with me at the
time had I been as well informed
as ' at present."
The letter was dater at Oyster
Ray, June 28, 1916. Friendly and
brief acknowledgement folloVed
from Senator Foraker. He wrote:
"Notwithstanding our differenc
es of opinions on some subjects,
there never has been a moment
since the beginning of our ac
quaintance when I was not an ar
det admirer of your great intel
lectual power, fervent patriotism
and fearless courage."
Thus apparently . an historic
friendship. Interrupted by an his
toric quarrel, was resumed while
both men lived:

years existance. More -than 9,-
062,000 volumes in 150 langu

The "Variety Follies" as the
headline set at the Bligh theatre

As staged, its personnel includes
six people four girls and two

These include toe and collegiate
stepping, a duo ensemble for the
hula, a trio for a pony canter and
the dashing Bolahevic finale.
Jonathan is a man of versatility
and many parts. First he makes
a thousand friends with his sure
fire line of patter. "Being a sue
cess" at that as his welcome be
speaks, he surprises by turning
cartoonist and draws national
celebrities at lightning speed. His
depiction of "The Vanishing Amer
ican" in six colors in 60 seconds
is a masterpiece.
"Sweethearts" is a comedy
sketch of sheer fun. It tells of the
man who was "coaxed into a
drink" and the ensuing events aft
er he reaches home. As present
ed by Bell and Bellgrave, its lines
are clean, witty and always In
good taste.
Bray and Smith, "The Unique
Acrobats Unusual, live up to
their name in both startling and
amusing fashion. Oae "does a
dizzy waiter" in all his glory and
the other imitates a frog with a
dexterity that amazes. Not con
tent with "taking" a dozen hard
falls, one of them twists his body
completely around and picks up a
handkerchief with his teeth.
Bbve, the eccentric violinist,
plays the violin like a cello. His
repertoire is tuneful, catchjng and
altogether a treat. He is an artist
and a comedian as well.
Education by Mail Urged
Upon Boys of All Nations
YELLOW SPRINGS, O. Edu
cation by mail, direct from subject
to student, is being put in practice
for American boys by Dr. Sven V
Knudsen, professor at Antloch
college here.
"My Friend Abroad is the
name given by Dr. Knudsen to his
system which consists of letter
writing between boys in America
atid boys abroad from Lapland
to the Argentine, from Jerusalem
to Singapore, from Poland to
Trinidad.
"Education through letters writ
ten from one boy to another can
be made into a more personal
thing than can text books written
for quantity consumption," Dr.
Knudsen believes. "If we can only
bring geography, sociology and
such subjects.-which deal with,the
surrounding world, closer to a
boy's personal life, he will like
them ever so much more."

Clear Eye Pictures Mean Clear
Understanding
If what you read doesn't go through your eyes right,;
how can it get through your mind clear? See easily '
and you'll understand quickly. Eyes under strain
hinder understanding. You read without getting a
clear picture. With correct glasses your eyes do
hot "muddle" your mind by calling for help. The
glasses give them the strength they lack.' !

Harry Myers, screen comedian. -climbed
out of the chill Pacific
ocean pursuant to a line In a com'
edy scenario the other day and
gave vent to this:
"When winter comes." I draw
nothing but South Sea Island pr
tures and in a Palm Beach suit
flirt with pneumonia and chil
blains. "All summer long, but especial
ly in the hottest weather, I work
with fur coats and mittens on. I
must chase husky dogs over Snow

like I'm beating my chest to get '
warm; in reality I'm fanning the
grease paint to keep It from burst

that with the advent of winter,
producers are inspired,, with the'
idea of cold weather pictures but
by the time things are ready, sum
mer has come. Conversely, this'
applies to summer filming.
