respecting Ohio's choice of candi-

says it Is difficult to make a polite
answer" to part of Chairman Browns
statement, declaring that FOR rank,
dictatorial and offensive bossism, it far
exceeds anything can recall" He
gives definite notice that he not only
resents Chairman Browns dictation,
but that his choice for the presidency
will be named by the next convention
of Ohio Republicans. and that he Will
abide by that choice.
He says, in part:
IF the Republicans of Ohio are
all, or 'overwhelmingly.'io or even by
"a bare majority. in favor of Sec
lretary Taft, his friends need not
Z either fear the primaries or be in
hurry about holding them.
"As to the rest of Mr.. Browns
statement it is difficult to make
a polite answer. For rank, dictator
rial and offensive bossism, 1t far
exceeds anything can recall. 1t
amounts to threat that unless
I stralghtway declare for Mr.. Taft

may be: but Ii so, 1t has no terrors
