BULL MOOSE TERM
Is COMPLIMENTARY
Senator Borah Introduces Term Into
Senate Debate and Then
Explains.

Senator William Z. Borah, who was a
follower of Col. Roosevelt at the Chi
cago convention. yesterday introduced
the term Bull Moose into the political
nomenclature OF the Senate for the first
time that II has ever been heard in the
Official debates In that body. 1t aroused
some merriment as well as surprise.
The Senate was discussing the work OF
the tariff board and the fact was
brought out that one of the agents em-
ployed by the Tariff Board as an expert
has supplied information alternately TO
Democrats and Republicans in Congress.
Senator Borah was interested in this in
formation. and after satisfying himself
as to the facts. propounded the inquiry:
Would II be proper to require this gen.
tleman TO supply information also TO the
Bull Moose party?'
The Senator was promptly assured by
these in charge of the bill that any in
formation in the possession of the tariff
board would be at the disposal Of the
Bull Moose organization.
Senator Borah does not look on the
designation Bull Moose" as necessarily
derisive. In the West. he explained pri-
vately to some of his friends, it would
suggest virile political organization full
of dash and pep"
why, some of my friends called me
Bull Borah' in our political battles in
the West. but have always regarded II
as a term of endearment," said the Sena-
tor.
