KOREANS BELIEVE

from him here, "is kept alive largely
by the convictions that in the near
future japan will find herself with a
more powerful enemy on her hands
when Korea can regain her 4243-year-
old independence and throw Off the
woke of annexation.
II is probably not generally known
that Korea is making bitter struggle
against the Japanese plans Of annex
alton. The true state of affairs is kept
concealed largely by the strict Japan
ese censorship over the telegraph and
mails. It is impossible to get letter
from Korea that has not been opened
and duly censored. We are compelled
to rely for our advices upon letters
carried by spies and members of the
revolutionary party or messages trans
mitted by runners by word of mouth
to the watchers outside the frontier.
AS a matter of fact, the twenty
million Korean people are resting un~
easy under the yoke, and it will take
but a spark to set them off into a war
of liberation. We believe that the
spark will be struck when the United
States and Japan engage in war. and
that the war will come within the next
five years.

Barnes of Albany Wants the
Former President to Quit
Fighting.

NEW YORK, Aug. 26-"I would
suggest that Mr. Woodruff again read
President Taft s letter to me August

This was all Lloyd G. Grscom, chair.
man of the New York Republican coun-
ty committee, would say in comment on
State Chairman Woodruff IS statements
of last nioht in which Mr.. Woodruff
said he was ignorant of any plan to
present Theodore Roosevelt g name be-
fore the recent committee meeting for
chairman of the state convention.
Mr.. Woodruff did not amplify on his
statement today, but William Barnes,
Jr, of Albany, was more loquacious
He declared as he did in a statement IL
few days ago, that the "people want
n rest y
Business interests are being put in
bad way by this wanton political agi-
tation,' added Mr.. Barnes "People
want to conserve their business inter
ests and do not want them destroyed
by political demagogues. The business
interests of the state arc tired of facing
chaos. They don t know where the next
blow is coming from, or who is to de-
liver it.
81 regret the present controversy as
1T means it will be almost impossible to
concilate the warning factions after tho
convention. Personally, I am against
making the pet theories of demagogucs
political issues, Roosevelt says he is
against crooks. SO am I, and so is
every honest man. He is hardly helping
the party by the course he is taking,
but he is getting the personal adver
tlsement that he so much desires. -
1t was reported today that Repub-
lican leaders of Nassau county, Long
Island Colonel Roosevelt's county,,
gate TO the state convention, probably
to lead the Nassau delegation,
Mr.. Roosevelt has said all along that
he would probably attend if chosen as
a delegate.
In an interview that will be published
tomorrow in the New York Press, Mr..
Barnes is represented as considering
with an open mind the possibility that
Theodore Roosevelt might again be gov
ernor Of New York
"Will Mr. Roosevelt take the NOM
ination on platform that does not de-
clare for direct nominations? he was
asked.
~ don't know; that is for him to
say Mr.. Barnes replied. "But if he
should be nominated l think I'll apply
for the job of state chairman, for / IN
sure he'll need somebody who knows
how to run things

accept your services9'
''Oh, [ don t know about that said
Mr.. Barnes, cit makes a lot of differ
