NATIONAL POLITICS.

Reports from Beverley, Mass.
indicate that President Taft will
make no direct answer to the as
sertions that there has been a
break between him and Col. Roose-
welt. His position regarding State
campaigns will be set forth, it is
said, in a letter he is preparing
for the Republican Campaign
Committee handbook and h S
speech before the Conservation
Congress at st. Paul.
Col. Roosevelt left yesterday on
journey of 5,493 miles, which
will take him through fourteen
States. The trip will require
nearly three weeks. The Colonel
will make fourteen set speeches,
one for each State. In addition
he will make many extemporane-
Gus addresses. He will also speak
at Oriskany, near Utica, the home
of Vice President Sherman.
