Roosevelt 1T FAVORS
BURTON FOR MA YOR
PRESIDENT TAKES HAND IN THE
CLEVELAND SITUATION
Congressman Makes Public Letter He
Had Received from Chief Execu-
tive Advising Him to Run
Against Tom johnson
Bv Associated Press.


CLEVELAND, O., Sept. 17.-Congress-
man Theodore e. Burton tonight issued a
statement discussing the so-called ma
tional phases of the coming municipal
election in Cleveland in which he is the
Republican nominee for mayor, and max
ing public for the first time the letter OF
President Roosevelt, who urged MIN TO
accept the local Republican leadership In
opposition to Mayor Tom l.. johnson. Mr..
Burtons statement, including the letter OF
President Roosevelt, is as follows:
IAN erroneous impression has gone forth
that the mayoralty campaign here is TO
an exceptional extent complicated with
national policies. Such is not the case,
The all-sufficient cause for my candidacy
is the local situations Unless am grossly
deceived, existing conditions under the
present city administration demand I'M
mediate and radical reform. The aim OF
the campaign in which 1 am engaged is to
redeem the city of Cleveland from the ad-
ministration of ring.
'I should have been extremely reluctant
to have turned aside from national poll
tics without the approval of president
Roosevelt and Secretaries Taft and Gar
field For this reason / have communi-
Gated with each of them. Their friendly
advice has come to me on my solicitation
and there has been no attempt at in
fuence Following is the letter received
from President Roosevelt:
"OYSTER BAY, N. Y, Aug. 3O.-My
Dear Mr. Burton: You put hard ques-
tion to me in your letter to Mr.. Loeb,
There are certain qualities of leadership
YOU possess which could not be supplied
by any one else in the house, and you
have a mastery of certain subjects such
as no other man in the house can hope to
attain. For you to leave the house. there
fore, would mean that in certain lines OF
leadership there would be loss that can
not be made up.
az would therefore be tempted to pro-
test against your leaving II it were not
for my profound conviction that 1T is ex'
ceedingly desirable that you should win
out as mayor of Cleveland. In view of the
fact that our democratic system under
goes its most severe strain In the govern
ment of our cities, I feel that it Is of the
utmost Importance to have man OF your
experience, power and your long training
theoretical and practical experience In
public life take such position as that OF
the mayoralty of Cleveland. Accordingly
as you ask my advice, should say make
the fight.
with all good wishes believe me
faithfully yours,
THEODORE ROOSEVELT.
Both Secretaries Taft and Garfield
have strongly advised me to enter the
contest for the mayoralty, the former by
letter and telegram, the latter In personal
conversation"

have never been introduced until now.
Yet these people of the Ozarks are real
iesh-and-blood folk-some, it is true,
reach the heroic-still we feel in them the
throb of kinship to all who live outside
their almost enchanted land.
Here is story worth the telling in this
day of multitudinous and insipid books.
Here is plot. The movement is ever on
ward-there are no retrograde and mean
ingless eddies In this stream or a.~a3en-
1ngs. The current of events seizes You
and takes you on and on, and when the
end comes you are both glad and sor-<
rowful-glad because so good story
ends as 1t does, sorrowful because it ends
so soon-yet it is book of many pages.
The one who writes these lines reads
and has read the masters of fiction; now
that he has read 1.-The Shepherd of the
Hills" he can say that it is one of the
few books which brought tears to the3
cheeks and laughter to the lips. If YOU
can read 1t without the tears your hearta
is hard, and If you do not laugh at times
humor plays small part in the drama
of your life.

PROSPERITY
Expert, with Chamber of Commerce
Committee and Captain Fries,
Makes Inspection-Ad-
dresses Engineers

John A. Fox, an engineer of national
reputation and special director of the ma
tional rivers and harbors congress, arrived
In Los Angeles yesterday after an ex-
tended tour of the northern section of the
state in the interest of the congress.
Yesterday afternoon Capt A. A. Fries,
government engineer, and three members
of the chamber of commerce harbor COM
mittee, George H. Stewart, r. @. Story
and Homer Hamlin. and Mr.. Fox left for
San Pedro to inspect the harbor situation
there and later made excursions to Long
Beach and Wilmington.
Last night Mr. Fox addressed the MEM
bers of the Engineers and Architects So
ciety of this city at an informal banquet
held at the Hollenbeck cafe He said:
my mission in California Is to do what
I can to educate the people lin realizing
the necessity of improving the waterways
all over the land so as to facilitate navi-
cation and lessen the cost of freight
carrying.
1T is the purpose Of the congress
which l represent to induce concerted in
fuence by the people on representatives
at Washington, with a view to procuring
appropriations for river and harbor i'm
provements beyond the mere dredging out
of sand bars that from time to time are
formed.
80 far the proper attention of the ma
tional government has not been directed
to this important affair. Congress has
been rather parsimonious when asked to
make appropriations for SO important
cause.
"But it is absolutely important that this
attitude should change. The country
stands in need of better harbors and the
people desire that more money be ex-
pended in this manner: Everybody must
use his influence to bear upon men of in
fluence who can make this plea for better
harbors strong point at Washington.
II have travelled all over this country.
and find that the harbors are in la
mentable condition as compared with
what they could be were a little more
money expended.
Your harbor at San Pedro will some
day be the pride of the west 1 hope.
There is a great chance If proper appro-
priations are made and work is done to
transform that harbor into one of the
best commercial harbors on the coast. All
that is needed is combined influence to
bring these matters to the attention of
congress"
After Mr.. Fox is through with his in
spection of the coast and the harbor
situation here he will leave for San Diego.
