extent President Roosevelt is handicapped
by the frequent repetitions OF tho state
ment that he will be the Republican can
didate for President In 1909 The speaker
was o friend and admirer Of the President
and he went on to say that there were few
things % calculated TO irritate the Presi-
dent as the constant iteration In certain
political quarters that his ofioial uttsrance,

months and is now being prosecuted with
great vigor. As 1905 approaches more
effective work. will be put in. All tho
aspirants for the nomination have taken
the President at his word, andthe President
IL aware OF that fact. he has voluntarily
taken the situation away from himself
and handed it over to the friends OF tho
various aspirants for the Presidential nomi-
nation. No situation can be created by

call what I have told you, and nobody will
