The appearance of a woman as orator of the day made the occasion out of the ordinary and there was much curiosity as to the turn Miss Sanford’s address would take. Yet it was admitted that the choice of the orator was a fitting one, for. in her “active life. Miss Sanford has been the personification of what is finest in soldier. spirit, indomitable courage and zeal for service. Miss Sanford opened her address with an eloquent tribute to the self sacrifice and heroism of the volunteer armies of 1891-65. With that she led up to the appeal for universal peace and disarmament. “The time is ripe,” she said “for a world agreement to put an end to war and each nation is waiting for the other to begin it. It is fitting that the movement should start from the United States, and some organ- ization must begin it.” WOMAN GETS REVENGE.

MANY ARE ASKED T0 OYSTER BAY Roosevelt Will Hear Both Sides in Party Fight. WRITES TO MANY PEOPLE Progressive and Regular Members of Congress Receive Letters Request- Ing an Interview Soon After the Ex- President’s Return—No Expression of Opinion Likely Until He Begins 8peechmaking in the West. Washington, May 31.—Letters from Colonel Roosevelt have been received by many members of congress in the I last few days asking them to meet him in Oyster Bay immediately after his return to ‘the United States. These [ letters have coine to progressives and regulars alike ‘and to members of both houses who have been closely identi- fled with legislative and political mat- ters in the present and former ses- sions or congress. It is apparent from the character of the letters received in Washington that the former president desires to discuss in detail the legislative and political developments of the last year with the men identified with every phase of affairs in congress. He has not swerved thus far from his deter- mination to refrain from public utter- ances upon American politics until his return to this country. There is every reason to belleve that an endorsement of either side of the Republican factional controversy will be forthcoming from Mr. Roosevelt after his return to America. His earli- est speeches will be those made on his Western' trip, when he will speak at Cheyenne, Wyo.; Kansas City, Chi- cago, St: Paul ‘and other points. Roosevelt Meets Notables.
