of the 1880 replies to circular letter"
said Mr.. Stewart yesterday, less than per cent
We're at all unfavorable President Roosevelt
The remainder expressed an intention TO regard
the Presidents wishes In political matters af-
fecting New York State Most of the writers
regard President Roosevelts own statement as
effectually disposng of the third term question,
although a number express the opinion that he
should be again elected.
These letters seem to indicate that President
Roosevelt's strength is as great to-day as it
three years ago, if not greater. wish
10 put all emphasis on the statement that Pres-
dent Roosevelt knew nothing of this canvass;
that James B. Reynolds had nothing to do with
IT, and that it only a routine league matter.
Neither was it inspired by any Interior political
motive. II only one of the canvasses that
we have been making for the last three years,
which viii be continued long as the league
continues under its present management We
expect to call d meeting SOON either in Syracuse
Rochester, OF the executive and general COM
mittees of the state. TO take action with ref
erence TO work for the coming campaign"
