STRONG IN THE WEST.
Nicholas Murray Butler Says People
There Want Roosevelt.

President Nicholas Murray Butler OF Co
lumbia University New York, says he Is
satisfied that President Roosevelt's personal
popularity throughout the west is boundiess,
and that he is the only logical candidate
for the republican party in 1904.
President Butler is just home from weeks
of touring with President Roosevelt west
of the Mississippi.
mo one who was with him can for an
instant doubt that the west is practically
solid for President Roosevelt" said DR..
Butler. Everywhere it was the same, and
the only possible conclusion to be drawn is
that he is undeniably the logical candidate
of the republican party for President next
year.
THE enthusiasm aroused by his presence
wherever he stopped was one of the most
impressive features of the trip. Men of all
types and classes Joined in extending him
the most cordial greetings, and his utter
ances were received with every mark of
appreciation and agreement.
Men of all classes in the west appear
to look at the President and to his admins
tration to keep the nations interests on
an even keel at home and also abroad. and
any one who tries to get up and agitate
anything west of the Mississippi adverse
to Mr.. Roosevelts policies will receive a
cold reception
