PInehot Versus TAFT.
II recently has been reported that
Theodore Roosevelt and clifford Pin.
chot have fallen out Mr. Plnchot'a
Washington friends say that the
rumor ia a Joke OF the hrst rank. and
that II by any chance there should be
n basis OF truth In II. the country has
a case OF severed friendship for the
like of which tho history Of comrade'
ships can furnish few parallels
The country knew months ago that
Mr.. Pinchot and Mr. TAFT had fallen
out The president has had the last
shot at the forester, bat II may be
that MIR. Pinchot will return the shot
IN kind. Last summer 10 persons in
the employe Of the forest service were
killed and nearly 200 were injured
while fighting forest fires In tho
northwest. when tho casualty lists
we're all In Mr. Plnchot said publicly
that the loss OF life and the injuries
TO the men OF the service were due "a
the fact that congress had been mig
gardly In It's appropriations, Mr.
Plnchot was bold enough to lay tho
blame on the shoulders Of Individual
members Of congress whom he called
by name. These members resented
the implication that they were re
sponsible for policy Of murderoui
economy.
Mr.. Taft got back at Mr.. Plnohot fl
this wise: In his annual message
without mentioning MI Pinchot'
name OF course, but perhaps making
his reply more direct by the omission
ho said that the loss OF life and Tho
damage done was not due 10 the lacl
Of appropriation by congress 10 NEE
the emergency He declared that N,
secretary OF the interior had funds
from which the law allowed him L
draw In Just such cases and that thes,
funds were drawn on TO the extent
Of a million dollars. Mr. Taft be
lieves that congress was In no wis,
tot blame for the casualties In IN,
Northwest last summer. Mr. Plnchot'
friends believe that he will have some
thing further 10 say on this subject
