II all our Ills should disappear.
And there remained no germs to fear.
How could we ever bear the strain7
II no man ever had 20 labor
And each might be a millionaire;
II we were done with sword and saber
And things were perfect everywhere,
With nothing left 70 kick about.
Ambition would go up the spout.
And be forever hidden there
Without the fretting and the moiling,
Without the dangers and the fears,
Without the hardships and the toiling,

In criticizing everything
And slyly, meanly whispering
Lies into one another's ears.

Roo.sv,lt Win Tribune.


Oyster Bay. NJ. r.. May 2l-1n an
interview in his home at Sycamore Hill
tonight, Colonel Roosevelt lauded the
fight for the United States Senatorship
in Pennsylvania.
It was the colonel's first real politi-
cal Interview since his return from
South America, and one OF his state
ments seemed to be slap at the Will
son administration Mexican policy.
The colonel said the leading editorial
in the Tribune this morning, which
said that Senator Boies Penrose should
be beaten and that all citizens. ire
spective of party affiliation, should
rally to the support OF Clifford Pinchot,
was admirable.
Tho colonel described the Tribune's
stand as repre- sentative OF sound cit
izenship and good, straightout Amer
icanism.
Colonel Roosevelt, who left a con-
ference of progressive leaders to re-
ceive the Tribune correspondent, said
he had confidence in the integrity OF
the rank and file Of the republican
party and he believed the republicans
would not give their support to PEN
would vote for Pinchot next November.
No sooner had the colonel recognized
this papers representative than he be-
gan, without being Intercepted. his
praise Of the attitude the Tribune has
taken in the situation.
Almost within earstot. during the
conversation. were two Of the leading
Pennsylvania progressives. William
Draper Lewis, that party's choice for
governor, and E. A. Van Valkenburg.
publisher OF The Philadelphia North
American" With them were George W.
Perkins, Of New York, and Walter
Brown. OF Chicago.
AS he. discussed the fight against
Penrose and Penroseism. the colonefs
face glowed. and he emphasized his
statements at times by striking his
open palm with his clenched fist.
II am heartily glad that the Tribune
has taken the admirable stand II did In
its editorial this morning on the con-
test in Pennsylvania between MI. Pin
chot and Mr.. Penrose." said the colonel.
1.-The Tribune in this represents sound
citizenship and good. straightout
Americanisnl.
"a crisis has come UP when 1t is the
duty Of all good citizens to sing or di-
vide party differences and stand
agains fragrant wrongdoing in public
life or against policies fatal to the well
fare OF the nation at home and the
honor Of the nation abroad.
And all good citizens should on
such occasions stand together without
regard to past party differences.
Il have confidence in the rank and
file of the republican party and that
they will support Mr.. Pinchot."
When Colonel Roosevelt was asked
what was being discussed a. the con-
ference Of progressive leaders he
laughed and said: Cant say what we
are discussing but II isn't all literary"
Mr.. PerieinA and the others motored
out TO Sycamore Hill late this after
noon. After dinner the colonel and his
guests took UP the political situation.
That the Pennsylvania situation and
the Trihune's position in II was dis
cussed at great length is generally be-
lieved here.

FLIRTING WITH ROOSEVELT,

What may eventually become the in
ritation OF the republican party TO
Roosevelt and its acceptance has ap-
peared in the columns Of the New York
Tribune this week and finds favor in
the Philadelphia North American, bull
mooser.
The Tribune, edited by the son OF
Whitelaw Reid, whose father was
minister to England under Presiden.
Taft, was a Taft paper in 1912, bu,
now the father is dead, Taft is gone
from our American politics and the
democrats are in office. The rem
nants Of the old machine in the repub-
lican party of Pennsylvania have just
succeeded in re-nominat ting Boies Pen
rose for the L. S. senate and the Tri-
bune breaks out with the question
what will it benefit the republican
party to recall to power the incom-
petents and reactionaries who wrecked
the Taft administration" Thus Is the
frank acknowledgement made by the
loyal supporter of Taft that it was the
reactionaries, Barnes and Penrose and
Aldrich ct al, who wrecked the Taft
administration and the Tribune boldly
advises the election of Pnchot on a
progressive ticket by republican votes
saying. The defeat OF Penrose, For.
aker and all of their kind is necessary
this year if republicanism is to come
into its own again two years from
now"
Then, as if to cast an inviting smile
| toward the gentleman recently returned
from the River Of Doubt the Tribune
remarks that Col. Roosevelt has just
| returned from South America and ex.
poets to give his attention this fall tc
| q revival OF the progressive movement
Nothing could play more directly init
his hands than the nomination Of mel
