THIRD TERM BOOMER TO
CONFER WITH ROOSEVELT
Timothy Woodruff, Chairman of the
New York State Republican Com.
mttee Going to Washington.

WASHINGTON. Nov. S-The i'm.
portance OF the announcement that
Timothy l.. Woodruff would be in
Washington OH November 10 TO talk
politics with President Roosevelt has
net been misunderstood by politic-
ans here. Coming as It did coincident
ally with Mr.. Woodruff's declaration
IN favor OF 4 third term for the
President the announcement is con,
strucd here as indicating that the
purpose OF Mr.. Roosevelt with re,
spect 10 the attitude of the New York
delegation which will be sent TO the
Republican national convention IN 1905
viii be made known. In part, at least
10 Mr.. Woodruff and whatsoever may
accompany him.
IL Is already apparent that the ad
ministration is preparing to wage Il
campaign within the Republican party
for the elimination OF Governor
Hughes rs q Presidential factor. In
situations are being made that Gov
Hughes Is q friend of the corpora
lions; that his veto of the two cent
fare bill shows his tendencies, and
that he countenanced the Hearst-Par
sons gusion. There are limitations
lso that IL 1t should be known pos
itively that President Roosevelt would
not accept third term. the interests
which have opposed Mr.. Roosevelt
would concentrate in favor of Mr.
Hughes nomination for the presi
dency.
The supporters of Mr.. Taft are un
easy over his prospects. His friends
In the administration put forth the
dea that all his strength as n can.
dldate has come from the attitude OF
the President. and they seek to ex
plain any lost ground OH his part by
the assertion that his campaign has
been badly managed.
There are reports that MIR. Roose.
welt Is looking around for some 9th,
er man of Presidential size to whom
to throw his influence. 1t Is said even
that he now finds that Senator Knox
would make an excellent demonstra
tor of the Roosevelt policies. These
things ara mere rumors and are men,
toned merely because they seem to
obtain credencc in quarters which
usually echo the administration
vows.

even yet resent the application to it's liberality of any invidious epithet. We have to breathe low that it is rough, and that the free hand we have given on all sides to our women has done much less than we might have dreamed to smooth it; we otherwise invite our selves to taste overmuch of certain forms of the roughness. This, how ever, is trifle if we only succeed in insisting, insisting with lucidity; than which there is no better way, doubt less, than to appeal with directness. Directness is achieved, accordingly, when this petition to the American woman Is made, absolutely, against her much-misguided self, and when it is asked of her to recognize, not that her path is more lighted than that of her downtrodden sisters in other worlds. but that she literally stands in need of three times their sufficiency of admonition. It is, in other words. not three times easier for her to please and soothe and happily to exemplify, but three times more difficult-by req son of the false lights that have multi piled about her and that an atmosphere absolutely uncritical has done nothing to eXtinguish."
