Boston, April 29.--presiaent Taft
ended twelve hour campaign
through eastern Massachusetts in
Boston tonight.
From the time he began his speech
making at .Attleboro with talk on
the tariff unit. ne made his last ad-
dress at Merose, and asked for a
square deal" the president spurred
his supporters into vigorous action.
The address at Lowell was To an
audience which packed the opera
house. So eager was the crowd to
gain admittance that several menu
bers of the presidents party could
not get in until after he had started
! TO speak
! When he came to talk about the
| bosses and Mr.. Roosevelts charges,
some one in the gallery shouted:
Hes a liar"
mo, that is not in my vocabulary
| said the president.
Later when he was referring to the
Lorimor case the same man, evident
ly repeated his cry after mention
Of Colonel Roosevelts name:
Hes a liar" he shouted.
my experience on the bench has
taught me the value of words, said
Mr.. Taft. zone of the most unsafe
things to do Is to so further than to
show the facts. ! appreciate the sup
port of my DISTINGUISHED ana en-
thusiastie friend, but ! must decline
10 adopt his voca bulary."

It was necessary for him to mingle
in political struggle, he suggested
an amendment of the constitution so
that a president should serve six or
seven years and be ineligible for re-
election.
II think that would prevent this,
he said. mo man has the right to
misrepresent another to get himself
in office no matter how humble that
man is the president shouted at one
point OF his Lowell address.
Condemn me II you will" he said. |
but condemn me BY other with sses |
than Theodore Roosevelt.
II was man of straw; but / have !
been man of straw long enough;
every man who has blood in his body
[ have been, is forced to fight | ap-
peal to my friends in Massachusetts
who think believe in a square deal"
In the first half dozen speeches to-
day the president did not mention
Colonel Roosevelt by name. although
he followed closely over the path his
predecessor made through the state
Saturday and today
AS he came nearer ana nearer to
the colonel's footsteps, however. the
president warmed up TO his subject
and assailed the colonel time after
lime. ..
He was not as bitter as in his
springfield and Boston addresses last
week, but continued to tell the ,
'rewds what he thought of some of ,
lis opponents charges. :
The crowds were large and they 9
'heered enough to warm the hearts ,
# the Taft managers. :
Practically every town the president
listed is manufacturing center and ,
n many places the mills Were closed.
he schools had declared partial holi-
lays and every preparation had been r
made TO welcome the nations chief.
