FOR THE Letter
Sheldon Explains Why Har.

Letter Was Written

New York. Dec. 23.-George r.
Sheldon, treasurer of the Republican
national committee. commenting today
upon the publication Of correspond
ence between himself and Theodore
Roosevelt relative to the Hartman
campaign contribution in 1905 and al
luding particularly to his own letter
TO the colonel. said 1t was written at
Colonel Roosevelt's request. Mr.. Shell
don took exception to the inference
that the publication Of the correspond
ence at this time indicated that the
colonel was candidate for he 1912
presidential nomination.
Colonel Roosevelt has not told me
that he is candidate" said Mr.. Shell
don. "On the contrary he has told me
repeatedly that he is not a candidate.
Colonel Roosevelt and myself We're
board train together some ten days
ago and this matter came up in con-
rersation from something in the news.
! said: Why was the truth never told
about this whole business so that II
could he shut up?'' Colonel Roosevelt
said: Why can't you tell it now p
That is all there is to It,"
Mr.. Sheldon questioned as to whcth-
er he regarded it as wise to revert at
this time to the Hartman contrihu-
tton incident, replied:
Il thought not but Colonel Roose-
velt asked me to write the letter and
did so. 1t was purely matter Of
friendship on my part. That letter
states the whole truth and ought to
stop comment"

suit of numerous petitions sent to DIR.

by hash victims.
This department has found that all
mixed foods must he standardized or
the pure food law cannot he enforced
said Dr. Crumhine. AN egg is an
egg. an orange is an orange. but mince
meat and hash are combinations for
which standards must be maintained.
There may he dozen different
kinds of hash. hut the standard COM
mittee of the department should make
ruling that hash should consist of a
certain kind of meat. potatoes. onions.
carrots or other vegetables. and re-
quire that they be clean and fresh. We
can't regulate what goes into the

peelings and other truck out of res

propose to denaturc hash-merely to

SHERMAN WANTS
1st. to.fl -s.s,.-s'~. - q
TO Be GOVERNOR
Vice President Seeking Vim
dication For Humiliation
Received at Saratoga

Washington, Dec. 23.-"For gover-
nor. James Schoolcraft Sherman" is
the way the New York state ticket will
read next fall If the vice president of
the United States has his way.
Close friends of the vice president
assert that he desires no longer to
preside over the senate's sessions. that
he Is anxious to obtain an office which
Will make greater demands on his ex.
ecutive ability, and that, more than
ALL he is seeking a vindication for the
humiliation he received at SARATOGA
q year ago.
Mr.. Sherman is represented as re-
garding the election of William Barnes
Jr., as chairman Of the Republican
state committee as at least a partial
vindication of the correctness of the
a year ago and as an emphatic rejec.
tion of the silk stocking" element led
by Colonel Roosevelt.
But he wants something more than
that. something which will prove a
healing balm of his own injured feel
ings. and such he would regard cleo
tion to the highest office in the gift of
his state.
Mr.. Sherman was grieved that the
president should have espoused the
cause of the progressives at Saratoga,
but he has cherished no i'll will, al
though he Is represented now as be-
heVing that the president is confront
ed by an opportunity to do the hand
some thing by him in furthering his
aspirations to be governor of New
York.
OF course. IL the president could see
his way clear to giving proper assist
ance to Mr.. Sherman in this ambition
Mr.. Barnes would see his way clear
to sending a solid Taft delegation to
Chicago. and 1t Is even possible that
William L. Ward might perceive the
wisdom Of assisting Mr.. Barnes to that
end. At least this is the way the
friends OF Mr.. Sherman outline the sit
uation.
Personally. Mr.. Sherman does not
desire a denomination for the vice
presidency, and he Is ready to ,support
Mr.. Taft for the denomination for the
presidency.
Mr.. Sherman has expressed himself
as regarding the president as the
strongest candidate the Republican
party could name. as entirely opti-
York. and, according to his friends.
he would be quite willing to ride into
the governors mansion at Albany on
the same wave which returns MIR. Taft
to the white house for another four
years.
There is little likelihood that the
president will consent to take any
part In the contest for the nomina-
ton for governor Of New York. He
has in the past held aloof from most
state fights, and Of all the states in
the union he doubtless regards New
York as the most competent to select
its own candidates for governor.
It is unlikely that the friends of
Vice President Sherman would have
given any intimation of his ambition
so early had 1t not i,een for the per-
sistent reports that he would be sore

him in 1910 shortly before she was
sent to the sanitarium.

retary of the Illinois Brick company.

she left the sanitarium had fought
hard to conquer her addiction to
morphine. He said that while he had
heard her say she was tired Of life he
did not believe she meant e,lch thing.
II never believed what The said Of
that nature. am satisfie her death
resulted from an accidental overdose
Of morphine" Mr.. Potter told the cor

w. Potter, one Of Chicago's first mil
liOnaires. Her name came into prom
inence when at 16 years old. she pub
lished q book which was so startling
that her father and other members OF
her family bought up every copy they
could find and destroyed the plates.
Others Of her books have been refused
