fort to Save New York
For Republicans.
New york, October 2s. ."1f Mr.. Taft
continues to make SasE good a President |
as he is making now he VIII be the
natural and inevitable Scandi didate of his
party In 1927 unless one thing hap
pens-th hat the people Of the United
States shall repudiate the administra-
ton OF Mr.. Taft by such crushing
and overwhelming defeat of his party
,hat twill be a pparen that Mr. TAFT
cannot be care-elected.
4 This was the statement made to-
nightly United states Senator E'lihu
Root In a speech at Manhattan Casino.
Mr. Root spoke particularly to those
who might stand willing
10 vote against the Republican guber-
Material candidate for the sake OF re-
.buking Theodore RooEevelt, and he
declared that Republican defeat in the
State this fall would be even more OF
blow to the present national admin
istration than to Colonel Roosevelt.
In fact, lie said, a Democratic victory
In New York would more than likely
turn the next ma tional convention away
from national administration which
could not hold its party toe ther and
toward Mr.. Roosevelt or TO one OF the
far more radical leaders who are now
looming up on the political horizon
In the North and Middle West.
Briggs No Pledge.
Contrary to some expectations. Sem
ator Root brought no direct pledge
from Colonel Roosevelt regarding his
attitude toward the nomination In 1912
He rIdiculed the issue OF the New Ma
tionalism, as Interpreted by the DEM
ocrattc platform; warmly praised Col, =
onel Roosevelt for his defeat of the
..Old Guard; attacked Tammany Hall
and warned voters of the danger Of;
putting tho Offices OF State comptroller
and State engineer in Tamtnany's pow-
or. lie CONNIE nd ed Mr.. Stimson' s SER
vices In the sugar trust prosecute on.
and called at tention to the fact 7 hat
the Standard Wall Paper Company, OF
which Mr. Dix Is a director. as l ked
L Congress ito raise the tariff on wall
paper. e
1t is said that to have Mr.. Stin1son
in the Governors chair would promote
isMr Roosevelt's political fortunes. 2 said
= Senator Root .The people who say
!. this he continued. ..do not mean what
| is undoubtedly true, that Mr.. Stimson
!, will be such a Governor as Ito reflect
| credit on every one who has supported
\ him. In any other sense. the proposi-
Istion is based on an entire misunder-
i standing OF the man. Hei was selected
4 as the candidate because he had done
ssome things in public office which
;fishow what kind of a man he Is and
4 which ought to be a guaranty to the
\ people of the State that he IS the kind Z IN
i of man they need for Governor. No
Il nan can use him, and no man can
4 make ia stepping stone OF him.
j ..The idea that Mr.. Roosevelt Econtem-
sIplates an attack upon our judicial sys-
4 an, or that that system Is In danger
Efrom him or from any one else. Is
lIpurely fanciful and devised for cam
lspaign purposes only.3 ,9
