The man who sald that he would rather walk forty miles than write a letter can find interesting coutirma- tion of nis views by calllog upon President Roosevelt aud Mr, barre man. Senator Depew will not thank either Mr. Harriman or Presidents Roosevelt for drawing him fato the lime light. Where oblivion {s bites, "sis folly to be prominent. The fact thatthe president and Mr. Harriman slightly differ as to the exact lan- guage used at thelr conference does not lessen the political yalue of the contribution which Mr. Harriman made upon the basis of his under- standing of the conversation. If the president will demand the names of the men who upon Mr. Harriman’s solicitation contributed a quarter of a million to the campaign fund, the public will be in better position to judge of their disinterestedness. If Mr. Harriman’s controversy with the president helps to make the latter more resolute in the advocacy of strict railroad regulation, the pablie will after all be the beneficiary.
