New York, Nov. 9.-The Outlook
In It's issue of this week will make
the following announcement regard.
ing the association OF President Roos-
evelt with that journal;
On and after the 9Th of March,
1909, Theodore Roosevelt will be as
ISOLATED with The outlook's editorial
stan as special contributing editor.
As the beginning of nineteenth
century was characterized by the
movement toward political democracy
so. the beginning of the twentieth
century has been characterized by a
movement toward Industrial democ-
racy. In this world movement Theo-
dore Roosevelt has been recognized
as a world leader. No one who knows
him has believed that his leadership
would cease with his retirement from
ourselves and our readers that this
leadership, exercised for the past sew
en- years In presidential messages,
will be exercised in Che future
through the COLUMNS Of The Outlook.
which will be the exclusive channel
for the expression of his views on
political, industrial ani social topics.
More Than n Contributor.
Mr.. Roosevelt viii be more than
mere contributor. His headquarters
VIII be at the Outlook Office, and he
VIII be m frequent. and, we hope, In
constant consultation with its stan.
His position VIII thus be somewhat
analogous . that OF a consulting en-
gineer. who is called in to give the
benefit OF his expert cooperation TO
the stan OF engineers in charge of a
great undertaking like the Panama
canal. HUT the editorial control OF
the Outlook vii remain unchanged.
M. RooseTe.t's contributions. though
editorial in their nature, will be
signed By his name. and will be the
absolutely free and unmoiified eX-
preston OF his personal convictions
We anticipate that on occasions both
the interest aud the value OF the Out
look will be enhanced by frank dis
cussions between this journal, and It's
distinguished associate.
As already announced in these co..
umns, Mr. Roosevelt, after retirine
from the presidency. will sail for AZ
ilca aud the reports of his scientific
hunting expedition will be published
exclusively In Scribner's magazine.
During this period his contributions
on questions OF the day Will neces-
sarlly be somewhat restricted. Yet
the Outlook wi. have the benefit of
bis foresight before he sails and viii
give to It's readers occasional articles
from his pen on topics Of current
interest. which will foreshadow his
larger editorial activity upon his re-
turn to his native land,
