SAYS ROOSEVELT IS
NOT A CANDIDATE

Philadelphia, Pa, Nov. 27.-The
North American publishes what it calls
an authoritative statement Of Col
Roosevelts position with reference to
the Repu blican national campaign for
the presidency in 1912.
The statement reiterates Mr.. Roose-
velt's declarations that he WiH not be
a candidate in 1912; neither would he
lend his aid to any prospective can
date. The North American says the
statement was made no more than
three days ago by Col. Roosevelt. 1t
says:
col Roosevelt will not support any
man for the nomination in 1912, neither
Mr. Taft nor anyone else. He never
gave Mr.. Taft any pledge or offer OF
support, nor did Mr.. Taft ever have
such an impression
"As to himself Col Roosevelt is not
a candidate nor has he been at any
time. He has repeatedly discouraged
suggestions of this character, not only
from sincere friends, but from political
leaders, who for one reason or another,
desire to use his name, and he has en-
phatically refused pledges of active
support, even delivery Of delegates"
