Philadelphia, Oct I3 - President
Roosevelt's interest in the election in
Pennsylvania next month was signi1-
cRntIy manifested in a talk with Sena-
tor Penrose, who was among the visi-
tors at the White House last week.
The president made no secret of his
feeling OF gratitude toward the Repub,
licans of the Keystone state for the
conspicuous part taken by their dele
gates to the last Republican national
convention in bringing about his nomi'
nation for the vice presidency, despite
the opposition of Senator Hanna and
others. who were at that time very
potential in the councils of the Repub-
liCan national committee.
Since the responsibilities of the
presidency have devolved upon Roose-
Welt there are no two men TO whose
Judgment and advice on public affairs
he gives greater consideration than
Senators Quay and PenrOse.
CHAT WITH THE PRESIDENT.
Senator Penrose's visit to Washing,
ton last week was not in relation TO
politics. but 10 close up several mat
ters before the departments. His call
on the president was merely a social
visit, but the political situation was
incidentally discussed. The president
was keenly interested in the reports
given him by Senator Penrose regard
Ing the outlook for a large Republican
majority in Pennsylvania on November
next Senator Penrose informed him
that throughout the state the young
Republicans have taken hold of cam
Raign work as they have never done
before, and this condition IS generally
attributed to the belief that the larger
the Republican vote in Pennsylvania
this year the greater emphasis will be
given to the fact that Pennsylvania is
q Roosevelt state. and proposes to lead
the Roosevelt column in the coming
national campaign.
The action OF the last two Republi-
can state conventions in declaring for
the nomination of Roosevelt for presi-
dent and the adoption of resolutions
expressing the same sentiment by the
Pennsylvania State League of Clubs
have all been most pleasing to the
president. and when he learned from
Senator Penrose the determination of
the party workers to roll up an i'm
mense Republican majority next
month. with view to affecting public
sentiment throughout the country, he
WAS more than delighted
PITTSBURG FOR CONVENTION.
Senator Penrose. as chairman OF
the Republican state committee has
decided to heartily cooperate with the
leaders OF the movement to have the
next national Republican convention
held in Pittsburg. He thinks every
