One was from Lady Dorothy Nevill,

she did not possess as much money as

Washington, p. O., March 1s.The
Springfield, Mass, Republican CORE
spondent sends the following story to
his paper:
Speaker Cannon is President Roose-
selt's present choice for the republican
nomination in 1908. This has been
known for a few days to small circle
Of men BY whom it has been closely
guarded. Discussion Of Uncle Joe's''
availability as candidate has gone so
far as to be indulgcd in ali cabinet meet

the famous ''muzzling' order. At pres.
emit Mr.. Roosevelt regards the speaker
as the man who would make the. strong
est leader for the republicans in 1905,
particularly If the radical wing domi-
mates the democracy. The fact Is APP
plecated that Secretary Roots ANNA
uons with Wall street are too close to
make him a strong candidate in the
Vest; Secretary Taft is apparently to
be taken out OF the race, and so the
pl es&ent turns To Speaker Cannon, with
his racy, picturesque character, az the
man who will best appeal 10 the people
ut large. 1t is not thought impossible
that Mr. Roosevelt has also in mind the
nipping off of the growing Fairbanks
movement.
The few who as yet know of the pres
ident's favor toward the speaker are in
dulging in lively speculation over il. IT
tends to explain some things that have
already occurred and suggests interest
