arraignments of the cigarette that

Crane spoke not as a theOrist or

alleged story of political jealousy,
duplicity and dictation from
Washington and Albany.
Most amazing of all these rev.

.Odell that the whole Roosevelt
war had its genesis in the Presi-
dents personal jealousy of him.
self.
Here is given a chapter of
secret political history. 1t relates
to the late Senator Marcus A.
Hanna and his ambition to enter
the White House.
From the Odell relation it ap-
pears that President Roosevelt
early in 1904 discovered that a
Hanna-Platt move was on foot to
make the Senator from Ohio the
presidential nominee. Roosevelt,
the book says, at once sent for
Odell, arranged to bury the
Ratchet and promised him the state
leadership without reserve. Odell
did his part and it was after
RooSevelt's nomination that there
began the long series of acts
which Odell describes as migrate
full and which led up to the present
situation.
