OYSTER BAY, August IS
Roosevelt spent the day in what is
probably the most important politi-
cal conference that he has had
since /he left the white house. He
gathered about him a group of
close friends and talked over with
them situation which is best ex-
pressed in the reports that the re-
lations between himself and Presi-
dent Taft are strained almost to the
breaking point. William Loeb, Jr.,
collector Of the port of New York,
Lloyd Griscom, chairman of the
New York republican county COM
mission; Representative Calder of
Brooklyn; Frederick Kracke of
Brooklyn and Representative Cook
of Roosevelt's home district, took
part in the conference
From what was said by some of
the visitors it was learned that the
colonel and his friends had agreed
on plan of action which will hold
until the situation shapes itself
more clearly. Briefly stated, it is
this: Roosevelt is to stand aside in
the New York state campaign, let
the 'old guard" fight its own fight,
and thus shoulder all responsibility
for the conduct and the result of
the campaign. He is neither to in
dcrse nor criticise the Taft ad-
ministration and he is to keep out
all around if he can
Through some of today's visitors
it was learned why the colonel de-
cided to keep hands off. He feels
that the republican state committee

porary chairman of the Saratoga
convention, position he had agreed
to accept, much against his will,

MINERS STRIKE
IN COLORADO
BY Associated Press.

DENVER. Colo, August IS
That the coal operators of the
Northern Colorado fields, where a
miners strike is in progress, ap-
pealed to Governor Shafroth for
military protection, became known
today, when the governor announc-
ed that he would not consider the
request unless appraised of more
serious acts of violence than have
occurred up to the present.
The request for troops was made
on the ground that "a number of
non-union miners have been beaten
up by union miners and their SYM
pathizers and that the operators be-
lieye the sheriff's Office of Boulder
county to be in sympathy with the
strikers to such an extent that lit
tie aid could be expected from them
by the mine owners.

SAN FRANCISCO, August IS
With but few outlying districts to
be counted, hope flickered and went
out in the camp of Francis Keesling
at 8 O'Clock tonight. 1t was gen.
orally conceded that A. ]. Wallace,
'insurgent'' candidate was success
full in his fight for the republican
nomination for lieutenant governor.
1t is estimated that Wallace has q
lead of about 1900 over the San

between them varying as the fig

further activity on his part look
as il he were leading a factional
fight against the administration
One important provision was en-
phasized in today's conference
lhose with whom he talked were
made to understand clearly that
RooseVelt reserves to himself the
right to enter the thick of the fight
at any ime he believes the policies
OF which he is the exponent are in
jeopardy, but he let it be known
that he would do SO with much
reluctance, for he feels that in
such a contingency he might be
led inevitably into controversy
with the Taft administration.
From what was said after the
conference it is gathered that Roose-
welt believes that the present atti-
tude of the men who are influential
in the national administration are
so hostile to him that an open rup-
ture may result In such a case
the colonel feels he may be com

are of the opinion that if he decides
to fight he prefers to postpone the
struggle- until 1912 when the sue

Should such an issue between
Roosevelt and the administration
present itself at this time, it is the
belief of Roosevelt's intimate asso-
ciates that he will be in the fight
to the end and that he will stake
his future on the outcome and again

TAFT THE GUEST
Of GOV. DRAPER
BY Associated Press

HOPEDALE, Mass, August 49,
Taft is spending the night as the
guest of Governor Draper of Mas
sachusetts at his home here. The
president is accompanied by Sec
retary Morton and Captain Butt.
He will visit Menden tomorrow
where his ancestors lived and will
return by automobile to Beverly in
the afternoon. Taft's visit here is
purely social. There is absolutely
no political significance attached to
it.
The reports from Oyster Bay to-
day purporting to indicate that
Roosevelt believed his defeat at the
hands of the New York state re-
publican committee was the result
of an agreement between Taft and
some of the "old guard leaders in
the state was received at Beverly
today with feeling little short of
CONSERVATION. AS the reports were
not credited to any responsible per-
son, no attention was officially paid
to them. So far as the statement
that there was an agreement to de.
feat Roosevelt to which Taft was a
party, there is said to be no truth
in it.

beneficial effect on the political and

the right principle and that it ought

People often write to me and
ask FOR the names of leading women
suffragists in the state. Well, ! can
never name a single one. You see,
we have no woman suffrage party,
and it follows that there are no
suffragist leaders. 1t is a mistake
to think that women don't think
about what they vote for When the
question of prohibition came up in
Ada county, in which Boise is situ-
ated. the women took the lead in
favor of high license because they
felt that the liquor problem could
be better handled in that way, and
went in and won.
women vote now in about the
same percentage as men with us. If
you give the woman the right to
vote only on school matters they
won't take advantage of it. If you
give them equal rights with men,
they will take just as much interest
and will be at the polls. and it de-
tracts nothing from their domestic
and motherly qualities. The women

as a rule one of them knows more
about conservation than the average
