The Tribune is pleased with the Sc
lection of Col. W. P. futile as a mem
Der of the state Republican executive
committee from this judicial district.
His campaign in the primaries for
the Republican nomination for con-
gress from the second district proved
there was no fairer political worker
in the Republican ranks thal the
colonel, and the committee would
have made an oversight had he not
been selected.

Mr., RoosEvELI's LETTER.

Mr.. ROOSEvELT'S LETTER.
Mr. Rooseyelt's latest appearance
in the controversy about the Standard
Oil company's part in the presidential
campaign OF 1904 is strictly in char
acter. Again we see the man whose
motives are always pure, If whose
company is sometimes foul. Again
we heard him praise his friends and
abuse his enemies in superlatiyes
suggesting the sophomore. Again We
see him ~clapping men into the
Ananias club after the fashion of a
rounder replying to charges while
tossing of his Spirits" in a grog-
gerry. 'Tis Theodore, and living Theo
dore once more.
And yet, unsatisfying as Mr.. Roose-
yelt's letter is, 1t has some value. For
one thing it shows that the future
sessions OF the senate investigating
committee will be interesting. When
Mr.. Hearst takes the witness chair,
and Mr.. Roosevelt speaks under oath
and cross-examination there, and Mr..
Archbold reappears with memory re-
freshed and corroborativc documents
in hand, and Mr., Perkins explains
the difference in politics between an
''angel' and an "idealist,' every
word Of the testimony given should
be Illuminating, and worth its weight
in oil OF standard value.
OF course, this is coming. MI.
Hearst and Mr.. Archbold are now
abroad but will be home again in a
few weeks. Mr.. Roosevelt has just
started on a wide swing around the
circle, but early October should find
him in the East again within easy
reach OF the senate committee. And
Angel" or "Idealist," Perkins and
his fellow-contributcrs to the social
ed progressive cause are, like true
and unselfish patriots, at the com.
mittee's call at all times.
Probably the most startling disclo-
sure made by Mr.. Roosevelt relates
TO Mr.. Archbold-not TO his selfish.
ness as a trust magnate, but to his
phenomenal powers as a conversation
alist. On one occasion, when Mr..
Archbold and Mr.. Rogers called on
Mr.. Roosevelt at the White House,
Mr.. Archbold, it seems. by Mr.. Roose-
velt's own confession, did almost all
the talking!" .
Here, evidently, is an %extraordi-
nary man. What other man ever
found full use for his tongue in Mr..
Roosevelt's presence? .
Imagination gets busy with this
picture; and. although Mr.. Archbold
is very rich and beyond the reach Of
everyday ayarice, he is in reach OF
untold, unreliable, wealth If he cares
TO garner it. Let him prepare a
monoIogue, giving his method OF
dominating a talkfest, and illustrated
with a reproduction of that White
House scene, with some good actor
in the role of the mute and amazed
Roosevelt, and showmen will outbid
creation for the rights of the enter
tainment. The gate receipts and the
entertainers share will break all
records. In a short time SIR. Archbold
win be able to lend Mr.. Rockefeller
money.

Napoleon's villa on the Isle of Elba, with all its
furnishings and belongings just as he left Them"

nobleman for beggarly 100000.
1t is true that the title of the villa to be consid-

poleon did intend to make it his residence. He had
it repaired. He even tore up historical volume on
Egypt and pasted the walls of what was to be his
library or lounging room with some of its pictures
Very probably also he himself saw to the selection
of the furniture furniture which is still there
But at this point historic certainty shades off into ira
don, and finally into grave doubt as to whether the
villa did actually shelter the Emperor of Elba for
single night.
But it was on December II, 1914, that the place
became ready for occupancy, and not until the last
of February did Napoleon leave Elba for the hun
dred days excursion that ended at Waterloo In the
intervening month he, of course, slept somewhere
Why not here? The proof that he did so is reached
by process of elimination. But it is enough to

Here's a Book

A story for every day in the year,
and for almost every event that occurs
IN the life of the average child is con-
tanned in the little STORY Teller's Book"
by Alice O'Grady and Frances Throop.
Both of these young women are past
mlstresses In the art Of story telling,
Miss O'Grady being a member of the
faculty of the kindergarten depart
ment of the Chicago Teachers College.
and Miss Throop OF the teaching staff
of a well-known Chicago educational
institution.
The charming stories contained in the
book have been selected especially
for their appeal to children OF all ages,
what is the most fascinating in the
way OF kittie-cat and puppy and piggie
wiggie stories, to the child whose taste
lies along lines of adventure and hero
ism. and the girl who demands a diet
OF fairy stories. The fanciful region OF
Dainty stories from Fairyland are In
terspersed with tingling verse, and
many of the stories contained In the
book have been gathered from Rus
sian. Belgian, French, Swedish and
German sources, and translated by the
authors.
Children love books with smooth pa
per, clear print. and lots of dialogue
and short crispy sentences. The book
contains all of these, and abounds in
rhymes. and, while there are no illus
tratIOns, the contents are so diversified
that their absence is not noticed.
For the busy mother, whose stock of
homemade stories has been exhausted,
or for the still buster teacher, who has
reached the end of her available sup
ply, the book should prove rare find.

These are spirited words and they are aimed
straight at the evil of sarchamber hearings in trust

which anayzes the imperative need of recall of ju-
dical DECISIONS as they point out the serious danger
to the people of hiding away the facts in the courts
from public scrutiny.

AN ELECTRIC ANNIVERSARY.

Thirty years ago yesterday Thomas A. Edison
opened a great electric light era with the world S
first central station for supplying electricity for COM
mercial PIT '"ses. 1t revolutionary enterprise
and its re-, ) are still accumulating. New York,
the home of it, has its wonderful Great White Way
to illustrate what an amazing advance be made in
less than third of century. Washington and a
thousand other American cities and towns have prof
tied relatively no less than New York by Edison's
genius; and has the world beyond the SEAS though
not in so spectacular manner. Like all wonders,
the incandescent light was greeted obviously.
1t promised we'll, but would it prove practicable
for general purposes? The results now make such
doubts seem childish. The revolution has trumphed
