publican Insurgents
POLICY OUTLINED TODAY
In Letter to Iowa Politicians, II Is An
nounced That Patronage Will Be
Allowed Them; Was Hitherto
Denied.

Beverly, Mass, Sept ia new poll
cy, designed to heal the breach between
the insurgents and the stand-pat fac.
tions OF the Republicans was announced
here today through the publication Of
n letter authorized by President Taft
to prominent Iowa politicians. In Il
Is statement made that the presi.
dent win hereafter allow patronage to
al insurgent senators and politicians
70 whom il was hitherto denied, which
Is taken as meaning Taft's ackhcwledg
ment Of impending defeat by the regu.
lars and his recognition Of the insur-
gent wave, which is sweeping the coun.
try.
The letter was signed BY Secretary
Norton, but was carefully OK'd by the
president. The name Of the addressee
was not given out, but il is believed to
he one Of the stand-pat Republican con.
gressmen IN Iowa. In part il reads as
follows "While the Republican legs
lation pending in Congress was opposed
by certain Republicans, the president
felt it his duty TO his partyw and the
country to withhold federal patronage
from certain SENATORS and congress-
men, who seemed to he IN opposition to
the Administrations efforts to carry ont
the promises Of the party platform.
That attitude. however, ended with the
primary elections and the nominating
conventions, which have now been held
and in which the voters have had an
opportunity to declare themselves. The
ptople

faces the fall election the question must I

ident believes they can and should be
forgotten in the preliminary skirmishes.
IN certain states, ike Iowa, Wisconsin
and elsewhere, he was willing, IN the
interest of what the leaders believed
would lead to party success, to make
certain determinations but the president
has concluded that ~ II his duty maw

laying his plans to be the next presi-
ient and Is detrminer that, 50 far as
he is concerned. the colonel shall have
a clear field He doesn't want another
term while the colonel is in the field
This statement from President Taft
romes from close circle that he will
make no statement or defensive move
against Roosevelt's projects or tactics.
