Houser, in Letter to Gardi-
ner, Charges Inconsistent
cy to the Colonel.

Washington, D. c., March 23.-That
Theodore Roosevelt's messages to sena-
tor La Toilette were such as to con
vince the latter he would have Roose-
velt's support, is the substance Of let
ter by Walter /. HOuser to ellison Gardi-
ner, given out at La Toilette headquar-
teTs today as an answer to correspond
ence made public by Clifford Pinchot.
The message you say you brought
from Col Roosevelt to senator La Fol-
lette can be construed in no other way
than as an inducement to senator La
Toilette to become a candidate. You
say he (Roosevelt) said he would, in the
columns Of the Outlook OF otherwise, do
what he could to direct attention to the
work accomplished by senator La Fol
lette IN Wisconsin, If he had said no
more, that would justify what I have
said that the message brought by you
to La Toilette from Roosevelt encour-
aged La Toilette TO become q candidate
Says Message Was Broad One.
But you said morethan this. You
said that Roosevelt declared that he
could not be a candidate; that his place
IN history was made; that be could not
afford to take a defeat and that who
ever made the fight was certain TO be
defeated for nomination or for election
if nominated; that this was the Demo
cratic year; that La Toilette would not
be injured BY the defeat; that there
should be a candidate representing the
Progressive" movement; that La Fol
lette was the logical man and that If
he decided TO make the fight he should
announce his candidacy at once
Chat Roosevelt encouraged La Fol

lette to become a candidate, you cannot
deny"
Renews His Charge.
Mr.. HOUser renewed his charge that
the attitude of the Roosevelt forces to-
ward La Toilette changed as soon as
there became evident "a widespread
growth of the Progressive" movement
and the possibility of senator La Fol
lette's nomination.
Then big business" said Mr.. Hou-
ser, represented by Hanna, Munsey,
Perkins and others of higher and lesser
note, who have always opposed La Fol
lette, entered the contest and introduced
Col Roosevelt as q candidate, and are
still actively supporting him. The peo-
pie viii judge in the light OF the facts
whether or not Roosevelt has kept true
faith with La Fallotte OF is doing so

Over the chimney the night wind sang
And chanted a melody no one knew;
And the children said, as they closer

"'TTs some witch that is cleavins
black night through
IT'S fairy triumph that just then blew
And we fear the wind in tht chim-

Over the chimney the night wind sans

And the Man, as he sat ON his hearth
below,
Said to himself, at will surely snow,
And fuel Is dear. and wages low,
And I'll stop the leak In the Chin

Diegel, sergeant-at-arms of the
senate was convicted, largely upon
the evidence which was secured by
means of the photograph. OF course.
his attorneys attacked the validity
of such evidence But Diegel will
have to go to the penitentiary. and
several members of the legislature
who were indicted with him will be
brought to trial at once.
There was no reason why the Su-
preme Court should have been called
upon to render decision in the mat
ter. The case against Diegel was
clear and the evidence was con-
elusive. But attorneys who under
take to defend criminals may always
be expected to hunt for every posi-
BILE means of escape for their clients,
whatever the cost to the public may
be. Evidence secured by means OF
the telephone and telegraph has in
the past been attacked, and it may be
assumed that the validity of evidence
which shall in the future be secured
by means of new inventions will in
variably be questioned by "techni-
cap' lawyers. 1t is this which makes
farce of SO much of our criminal
law.-Chicago Record-Herald.
