Eauin Platform Confarancas.


Chicago, June 1.-THE arst real con
ference over the platform upon which
President Taft will run If he wins out
in the convention took place. 1t was
held at the Taft headquarters and
those who took part in it were Sena-
tor Root, Secretary Hilles, DR.. Nicholas
Murray Butler, ex-Fiee President Fair
banks and Charles Hopkins Clark Of
Hartford, Conn.
Senator Root brought some sugges
tons from the president, with whom
he had a talk just before he left
Washington. Mr.. Fairbanks Is slated
for the craftsmanship of tho resolu-
ton committee If the Taft forces win,
He has brought here some sections of
the proposed platform, n In par
ticular having to do with the indorse-
ment which is to be given the party
for past performances.
No praise, contrary to expectations,
Ia to be withheld from the perfor-
mances of the Roosevelt hdmin1stra
Ion In this platform. The speech
which Senator Root has prepared, 1t
was also learned, follows this same
policy. Roosevelt condemnation Is to
come In another part Of the platform,
as If to show how he himself changed
and added his creed a lot of new
ideas which the party repudiates.
One thing which was talked over at
the conference of the@Taft platform
makers was the six year presidential
.erm question. This is going to re-
ceive very serious consideration here,
but lust what the outcome VIII be Is
uncertain.
Next TO this feature the most inter.
| estinc fact which developed in connec
ton with the work the two rival sets
of platform constructors was the dis
| closure that whereas the Taft platform
Is to give what might be described as
a mild Endorsement OF the Aldrich cur
rency plan, not mentioning the meas
ure by name. the Roosevelt platform
| will absolutely repudiate 1t.
The Roosevelt plank will advocate a
currency system Under the absolute
| control Of the government. This
| Roosevelt money plank will not be fai
different from the n La Toilette
people have. Frank A. Munsey Is
writing the tentative draft of the
| Roosevelt platform. OF course every
body believes that the Munsey plat
form Is to be worked over and changed
| by the colonel himself. Regarding the
Roosevelt platform Mr.. Munsey said:
'orhe country need have no anxiety
concerning the sanity, the sounanesS
and the wisdom of the Roosevelt plat
form. 1t will be short aud strong and
ns free from bunk ms 1t is possible &c
