were vitality interested in Washing
Ton legislation, Aud yet, when
Mr. Roosevelt called Mr.. Parker n
Ilnr for declaring that the Repub
lcau compnign fund was being 50
collected, COrtelyou came to the
'front.' with similar denial. Few
men would have 50 sacrificed honor
and sclf-respcrt, but his willing
ness to make such sacrifices is the
reason for his remarkable advance
ment under the Roosevelt admins
tratiun. He was put in as secrc
tary of the treasury because OF his
intimacy with Wall street mag
mates. the idea being that he would
whip them into line for Taft. But
while Mr.. Cortelyou's duplcIty
still continued, it became twO-fOld j.,
and took in Roosevelt and Taft MS
well rs the people Instead OF
'ClnGhlng" the money captains for
Taft, he commenced to work IN his
own behalf, and had it not been
for the exposure brought about at
the recent meeting Of the national
committee, there is no telling how
far he would have gone. At that,
however, the Wall street crowd
was meeting treachery with treach-
cry, for it is now Il certainty that
they were simply using Cortelyou
as means of heading off Taft and
clearing the field for Hughes. 1t
is a nice mess, indeed, and out OF
which Mr.. Roosevelt will not come
