border to prevent further raids in

taken this action several years ago
there would have been no raids,

Consulted by Roosevelt.

When Theodore Roosevelt was presi-
dent he often consulted Theodore e.
Burton, particularly on matters of con
servation- Roosevelt appointed Bur
ton chairman of the inland Waterways
commission. and the senator was after
ward chairman of the national water
ways commission. both having for
their object the conservation of the
waters of the country to he used for
irrigation and navigation. Roosevelt
and Burton did not always agree. but
the president had profound respect
for Burton's opinion and advice

die west have always been essential tc
Republican success. and the issues In
the present campaign make this fact
more important than ever before.
Senator Burton has no superior on
the stump He would make a cam
paign that would arouse the finest spir-
VI of the party He. is fearless. vigor-
Gus and master of political debate.
Ever since he entered the House of
Representatives to fight side by side
with William Mckinley, twenty live
years ago, for the chief tenet of Re
publican faith. he has been. in Con-
gress and out, a conspicuous leader of
the party in all the practical problems
OF government and his record upon
tariff legislation. international. affairs,
the Improvement of rivers and har-
bors, the support of the army and
navy. the strengthening of the bank
Ing and currency systems, md the in
sistence upon honesty and economy in
the public service, is platform in it
self.
Senator Burton is staunch party
man-an earnest believer in political
organization and responsibility. and he
would not only unite all Republicans
in the present campaign but he would
keep them united during his term of
ONCE. and he would leave the party
stronger in power and more effective
in the performance of its great du-
ties than ever before
In surveying the whole field on the
eve of the most momentous Republican
convention since 1896. if not since the
birth of the party. the conviction is
growing throughout the country that
the wisest choice that could be made
at Chicago is Theodore Burton of Ohio.

HUMAN SIDE OF
SENATOR BURTON
Many Anecdotes Related of the
Ohio Statesman.

One result of Senator Theodore E..
Burton's being mentioned so Dronni-
nently in the papers is that several
times each week he receives letters
from college and high school students
IN different parts of the country ask
Ing him to help them in preparation
for debates. He always makes If a
rule when his engagements will per-
init to help students by suggesting ar
guments and giving them the results
of his public service However. a few
days ago he received q letter from n
student in a normal school in one of
the northern states suggesting q most
interesting arrangement The youic
lady wrote him that she was about to
enter prize contest and she had
chosen for her subject q question on
which be was regarded as q particular
authority She proposed that II he
would write her essay and IT was
awarded the prize she would divide If
with him ffty-ffty. he sent her his
regrets that he was una bic 10 accept
her proposition.
senator Burton is g prodigious work
er, and the light in his study can al
ways be seen burning far into the
small hours of the night He saws that
ne IS bic to pursue his studies to these
late hours by always retiring for an
hour late In the afternoon
One afternoon President Taft want
ed TO consult with Senator Burton on
the telephone and was connected with
the Rochambeau exchange. The Ro-
chambeau operator Informed the presi-
dent of the United States that Senator
Burton was asleep and she could not
disturb him.
Mr. Taft replied, But this is Presi-
dent Taft, who wants to speak to Sen
ator Burton
She answered.: II can't help It /
couldn't call him even if 1t were the
king of England"
President Taft told this story on Mr..
Burton at the next White House din
ner that Mr.. Burton attended.
Senator Burton is practical anti
race suicidist, Inexplicable to his
friends as it is that he has never mar
rleo ne Is the personifcation of devo-
ton and tenderness TO children.
When he was in the senate he had
an appointment to a position at his
disposal. There WIS g score of appli-
cants- Out of the number he selected
for appointment man with a family
of seven children
The man needs it, said the sena-
tor He Is doing more for his coun-
try and the next generation than any
of u.s.
Senator Burton, who cannot bring
himself to stick to the principle of or
ganized charity as against open hand
ed, indiscriminate giving. but who has
firm determination not TO be imposed
upon. recently had this experience:
He was accosted by a man who de-
clared he was hungry and needed a
quarter Senator Burton replied: my
friend, don't want to see any man
go hungry Just come with me to n
restaurant and / viii buy you some
thing to eat
