responsible plutocracy" when the Re-
publican party under the leadership of
Roosevelt had come to the rescue. In
the last four years there had been a
great moral awakening to this danger.
Roosevelt Denies Charges.
The expected statement from the
president in reply to widely circulated
charges that he had used federal pat
.onage to aid the candidacy of Secre-
tary Taft came out in the form Of
letter to William Dudley Foulke of In
LLAMA. who had written to the presi-
dent as q friendly inquirer. The presi-
dent says that all such charges are
false and malicious" and proceeds to
report in full concerning his appoint
ments. of which 1852 had been made
since March last. OF these 1,16f were
postmasters the rest. lin the army,
navy, scientific bureaus and diplomatic
service, being made without regard to
political affiliations. For the great
bulk of postmasterships and collector
ships the president asserts that he has
followed the custom of taking the rec
ommendation of the senators and rep
yesentatives as the basis of his selec-
lions, preferring, with their consent to
reappoint men who have made good
record. He then takes up several par
ticular cases referred to- especially in
New York and in Ohio. postmaster
ships in the latter state having been
made the subject of opposition in the
senate not long ago. This objection
had finally been boiled down to three
cases in which he had used his discre-
ton to appoint new men owing to COM
plants against the former incumbents.
The president says his interference In
matters of patronage has been limited
to insisting that opposition to the pur-
poses, policies and friends of the adj
ministration shall not be considered as
a necessary prerequisite to holding the
commission Of the president"
