to have quiet summer at Oyster Bay and
to do only the work necessary to keep the
wheels of the government going smoothly
He will stay outdoors as much as he can
with the object of recuperating from the
hard winter he has had. There will be
some political conferences during the sum-

New York County Organization.
Representative Parsons of New York
head Of the New York county republican
organization, conferred with the President
today about politics in that state On his
way from the White House he said that his
organization was for Gov. Hughes, and
would do its utmost to aid in the successful
enactment of his policies. He predicted
that Gov. Hughes would win out in his
fight with the legislature. He would not
discuss the subject of Gov. Hughes as a
presidential candidate in 1903.
Representative Langley of Kentucky
talked with the President about the politics
of that state. Mr.. Langley has been in
North Carolina, and came here at the re-
quest of the President. Il feel almost
sure we will elect republican governor of
Kentucky this year. said Mr.. Langley IF
l have any political sense at all can see
that political conditions are favorable to
the party, If it dominates good man, as it
no doubt will. The democrats are badly
split, and this, together with republican
unity, promises republican governor for
the state.

made. Mr.. Parker says the party, on its
way to the jamestown exposition, will
come to Washington. He looks to see this
city crowded with visitors during the expo
stion.

Mr. Burkhart is said to be an influential

SOnal WISH.

Yesterday some tart things were said about
the President. The chairman asked
