Tells Roosevelt He is Laborins Under
q Misrepresentation and That He Did

i National committse-Taft Prepares
/ to Leave For West.

New York, Sept. c2.-Norman E.
Mack. chairman of the democratic ma
tional committee, today addressed the
following telegram to President Roose-
welt:
Il ~ sce in the New York Tribune
this mofs..ng that you are quoted by
Timothy L. Woodruff, chairman Of the
republican state committee, in the fol-
lowing interview which Woodruff gave
out from Oyster Bay:
g Incidentally the president remarked
that he considered it significant that
$s0o,000 had been found in the treasury
of the democratic party after Judge
Parker had declared thruout the last
national campaign that the party
treasury was receiving nothing from
the corporations; further, because 1t
was announced at the time of the cleo
ton that the treasury was empty The
president said he thought it looked
queer that such large sum of money
should turn up after Haskell was ap-
nointed treasurer of the democratic
national committee
..If you are quoted correctly. no doubt
you have in mind the publication in
the New York American recently that
i. as chairman Of the democratic ma
tional comrnitt>e, received 100000
from former Chairman Taggart. which
was said to be left over from the 1904
campaign. This at that time was en-
phatically denied when brought to my
attention. / desire you to know that
there is not word of truth in this
statement. I have not received ono
cent from Taggart or any one else
connected with the last campaign,
Neither has any one connected with
the democratic national committee. !
am wiring you this direct. as 4 desire
ID correct what seems to be an erron-
eous impression in your mind"

The latest move in the political cam

This has been done by Cap. ID. Miller,
the democratic candidate for state SUI
perintendent. Miller has had some
Of his friends compose some poems and
he has had them printed and Is dis

is causing some of the educators or
the state to look askance at Miller.
They are inclined to take the posi-

poetry is liable to do most anything
and cannot be trusted. Furthermore
they say the poetry is bad, very bad.
That is to say it doesn't rank with
Shakespeare. Tennyson, Riley, s. Il.

But whether or not the poetry has
merit the friends of State Superinten-
dent Riggs are insisting that old SOL
diers cease to make the mistake that
Miller was veteran of the civil war
and a captain of an Iowa company.
Miller is about 35 years old and in
comparison with grizzled veteran ne
