T. Songs.

Imbued with desire of emulating and
furthering the purposes of their candi-
date, thirty members of the Junior
Roosevelt Club, ranging from six to ten
years of age. met at the home Of the
president Of the organization, Charles
McGhan, 642 Sixth street northeast, last
night and with toast and song cele-
brated. The real cause for the cele-
bration-hte eighth birthday annivers-
airy of the youthful founder and presi-
dent of the organization-was forgotten
in the squabble over politics evidently
CLEANED from the conversations of the
youngsters parents.
The entire lower floor of the house
was transformed into real convention
hail. draped with flags and pictures
of Theodore Roosevelt. The children in
dulged in games and sang patriotic
songs, and as a fitting conclusion to the
festivities President McGhan, on behalf
of the other Juvenile Roosevelters,
wrote a letter to the former President
commencing him for his progressivism.
The letter has been sent to Mr.. Roose-
velt.

Will Make Campaign.

OYSTER BAY, n. z, June T.-The
issue upon which Colonel Roosevelt is
to make his campaign for the Presi-

He purposes to base his appeal upon the
assertion that what he has termed the
big sinister influences have deter
mined to eliminate him from public life
because he is the one man whom they
really fear.
To accomplish this purpose he be-
neves they are willing to take up any
man whom they think can win tho
Presidency over him.
Having defeated him at the Chicago
convention, he says, they hope to corr
troll the Democratic convention to this
same end.

"They know me and 1 know them"
he said. "It is anything to beat me. I
am fighting a lone hand, and I am
going to fight 1t out to the end
The former President made this re-
mark after a long conference with
William A. Prendergast, comptroller

Colonel Roosevelt to say definitely
that under no circumstances would
he withdraw from the fght. -.

Colonel Roosevelt corroborated this
statement, and added that the same in
terests were hard at work at the Bal
timore convention, and were willing to
take up any of the Democratic progress
sives If they thought they could thus
defeat him.
Comptroller Prendergast said in a
statement that he had pointed out to
Colonel Roosevelt that the overshadow'
