LIKENS TAFT TO
EX-SENATOR LORIMER
Roosevelt Says His NOmina-
ton as Dishonest as
LOrimer's Election.

Oyster Bay, N Y. July 2s-The re-
nomination Of president Taft by the
Republican national convention last
month was compared by Col Roosevelt
today to the election of William Lori
mer to the United States senate.
The two cases. he declared. stand on
the same moral plane, and Mr. Taft's
nomination, in his opinion, can be de-
Tended only on grounds which would
Justify his election.
Had the Chicago convention been or
ganized honestly, he said, there would
have been a majority of over 100
Col Roosevelt's statement was in
reply to the administr ation's defense Of
the proceedings at Chicago which was
issued at Washington
Il saw in the papers that Mr.. Root
said he would have voted Tor the Texas
cases DR.. Butler is said to have de-
clared that he would have voted for
the Washington cases. says the state
ment Several are reported to have
said they would have voted for the
California cases If these cases alone
had been reversed. even if the Texas
cases alone had been reversed. Mr..
Taft could not have been nominated
If honestly organized. the convention
would have been against Mr.. Taft by
from the stolen 90 delegates which gave
the fraudulent majority. Mr. Tafts
vote was made up three-fOurths the
rotten borough delegates from the
Republican party and which never cast
a Republican electoral vote, and from
the handpiclSed delegates of Messrs.
Barnes, Penrose. Guggenheim and COM
pany from the north.
There are no politicians and news
papers who continue to uphold Mr.
Lorimer'S innocence and to assert that
there was nothing improper about his
election. Almost all these politicians
and newspapers. and some others in
addition, make precisely similar asser-
lions that there was no fraud or
thefts of delegates at the Chicago con-
Vention- One assertion has precisely as
much merit as the other.
The fraudulent nomination OF Mr..
Taft can be defended upon grounds
which would also justify Mr.. LOrimer's
election to and his retention in the
senate"

HILLES PREPARES
CAMPAIGN STATEMENT
Says Gross Misrepresenta-
lions Are Made by
Roosevelt Party

New York. \. Y, July 29.-CharIes
D. HilIes. formerly secretary to presi-
dent Taft and. now chairman of the
Republican national committee, gave
out the following statement:
The only possible justification OF
the avOwed efforts of the third term
party leaders to induce the Republican
electors in at least six states to betray
their trust and cast their votes in the
electoral college for eX-president
Roosevelt would be the truth of the
charge that president Taft was nOmi-
mated by the fraudulent seating OF a
sufficient number of delegates to af-
feet the choice of the national con-
There is no truth whatever in that
charge. Mr.. Roosevelt and his asSO-
ciates know there is no truth in it,
but they have been attempting by vO-
ciferatiOn and reiteratiOn, to beclOud
the fact that they have no proof to
offer They would drown out all to
establish the truth by persistent cries
Of thief and fraud
The third term party is the con-
fessed sponsor for one hundred and
sixty fake contests by which il at
tempted to secure fraudulent control
of the national convention, and now
It has the temerity to ask the Ameri-
can public to believe that in the re-
naming IS contests the right was all
of tie 23S contests which Mr..
Roosevelt ordered to be brought before
the national committee, his political

nounced that these contests were insti-
tuted solely for psychological effect
and in order that the table of deleg2- es
elected might not reveal the large ma
jOrity of legitimately elected dele
gates instructed for president Taft
This gross misrepresentation of the
Republican party has attained proper

would be a national scandal For
that reason the proper authorities have
