TRIBUTE.
Committee Appointed for $500,000 Fund.
Five or six hundred admirers and friends of ex-President Wil- son met recently at the Hotel Biltmore to consider.how best to perpetuate the spirit of idealism: which they consider he was among the first to introduce into the realm of practical internation- al politics.
There was nothing about the meeting in the nature of a "memorial" for the leader of a "lost cause." There was none of the talk of the "tragedy of Wilson," which, had bean thei theme of some writers. Tragedy?" cried Cleveland Dodge, one of the original Wilson supporters. "Is

"Men who have the cap-- acity for judging human relations do not care, as a rule, for political office. Look over the lives of the acknowledged one hundred great men of history and see what a small number ever gave any time to executive political work.
