the outcome of his presidential campaign.
He said he would make no predictions as
to the result Of the Chicago convention,
but that he felt encouraged by recent
events.
you would not have believed it at the
beginning said colonel Roosevelt. and
YOU may not believe it now, but one
great advantage I had to start with was
that I was dragged into this fight and,
so far as I personally am concerned. I am
not excited about it one way or the
other In 1904 I wanted to win for my
self ] wanted IL to round out my ca
reer. This time I loathed getting into
the fight"

that he gained recently. laying emphasis
on the result of the primaries in Mime
