WOODRUFF HOLDS ON.
Senator Roots canvass OF the New York
State committee showed him that ma
jority of the committee IS behind him
and the other members OF the Federal
delegation in their belief that there must
be complete party reorganization before
the next campaign, but the majority is
against making any fight against Mr..
Woodruff until the meeting of the State
convention.
This means. Of course. that Chairman
Woodruff will serve out his term. and
Senator Root and others in the Congress
delegation have been assured that Mr.
Woodruff win have no ambition to sue
ceed himself.
While the majority Of the State COM
mittee was against any action that would
humiliate Mr.. Woodruff. Senator Root
and his friends, it is said authoritatively,
ascertained that they could force the is
sue and win out if they desired to resort
to practical political methods
In other words. majority of the mem
bers of the State committee were for
Woodrun's serving out his term, but
would vote for his removal If the Federal
administration would apply the screws
and also would hand out few jobs
where they would do the most gooG Sen

in campaign of this sort, and Mr. Taft
also objected to it.
