CARROLL. Iowa, August 26.-Theodore
Roosevelt definitely aligned himself with
the progressives Of New York state in
statement which he issued on the train
today as he was travelling across Iowa.
Col. Roosevelt declared that the main
issue in the fight In New York was not
any specific reform measure, but bossism.
Bossism, he declared, frequently led to
corruption and he said he would wage
ruthless war on corrupt alliances between
business and bosses
. Col Roosevelt was asked about re-
marks by Timothy L. Woodruff. New
York republican state chairman in re-
gard to the factional fight In New York
In reply he issued this statement.
THE progressives are alphabetically in
favor Of taking a real step forward about
direct primaries. substantially on the
lines of Cow Hughes proposition. but
this Is not the main issue.
THE main issue IL that we stand n against
bossism, big or little. and in favor of
genuine popular rule. not only at the
election, but within the party organiza-
tion. and above all, that our war Is
ruthless against every species Of cor
ruption. big or little. and against the
alliance between corrupt business and
corrupt politics. as to which Il has been

Navy Asked to Cooperate.
The Navy Department was also re-
quested to join in the bombardment
OF the clouds. The request was for the
firing Of the guns at o'clock this
morning.
The matter was brought to the at
tention Of the officials too late to per-
nit compliance, should it have been
found feasible.
The action of the department in declin-
ing to act favorably on the request is
understood to have been due 10 failures
in the past to produce rain by this means
and the distance of the big seacoast de-
lenses from the scenes of the burning
forests.
The Navy Department is practically
without enough guns TO IRE ueCeHt
presidential salute In the vicinity of Puget
Sound. Only the monitor Cheyenne, with
two twelve-inch guns and four fOur-inch
guns, is known to be available for the
purpose.
The cruiser Chattanooga, with several
guns aboard, is now being put out OF
commission. 1t Is not known here wheth-
er she could fire a single gun.
Rear Admiral Nicholson, acting secre-
tary of the department. sent an order to
- 90 he Dvnv
yard on Puget Sound, directing him to
fire these guns simultaneously with the
forts. Inasmuch as the forts will not
fire the naval guns also will be- silent.
