POLITICS IN THE SENATE
(continued from Page One-)

Citing criticisms of Mr. Roosevelt
editorials, Senator stone continued:
For example. Roosevelt denounces
the president and the government in
terms that would subject almost any
other citizen to arrest-yet his utter
ances. which ] say would be denounc-
ed as reasonable II made by others

and. secondly, 10 inquire why Roose-
Welt may say things with impunitI
which IL citizen Of lesser consequence
d,r, not even repeat without danger
of indictment for disloyalty.
Aid to the Kaiser.
1T this point the senator made re-
ference to Roosevelt as an aid to the
kaiser and then turned TO the con-
pressiUnal war investigation. he diu
no, question the right Of congress to
make inquiries but rather their pur-
pose and publicity given 10 national
difficulties.

deficiencies IN our war activities, even

nations weakness to the enemy.
The time for Haunting them Is
past" he continued. This Is the
time for universal national sympathy
and snlidily. My appeal now is TO
my colleagues ON this side To stand
firmly against influences calculated TO
mislcad. us. and | appeal to my COL
leagues on the other side OF this
chamber to thrust back the evident
rising tide of partisanship.
The Republican leaders purpose.
ne reiterated. is to elect congress
out of harmony with the president.
As to General Wood.
Senator stone dealt with published
criticisms of the administration for
not making use of the capabilities Of
Republicans prominent in public life.
such as Colonel Roosevelt. Gen. Leon
ard Wood. former Senator Root, for
mcr President Taft and Charles +.
Hughes. He pointed out that Mr..
Root had been sent TO Russia on an
important mission and that former
Chairman Wilcox of the Republican
national committee. had just been
called to assist the director general
of railroads. senator stone paid high
tribute to Mr.. Root. but sad he did
not regard his former colleague as -
sort of jo>c sitting OIL Olympus"
After speaking Of the abilities OF
some others named. Senator stone
added:
Mr.. Taft and Mr.. Hughes | pass
in respectful silence.
General Wood has been called re-
peatedly to great responsibilities" the
senator said. adding that the sub
stance of the criticisms in that case
had been failure to call him to su-
preme command Of military forces.

For men there must be; or there can

BY stroke Of destiny we have at

man whose absorbing interest and

writer's say Of him that he has been

but when he was moved to write an
history he called it-not a political
history nor the history Of a republic
but-"The History Of the American

resentatives he calls to the American
people: in spite Of their representa-
tives he works for the American peo-
Pile; and before all the world he states
that the United States makes war up
on the imperial German government
not upon the German people. The
men who bear the scrutiny Of history
are men whose lives have been for the
good Of the people. Lees spirit broke
