Washington, D. President Taft
has indicated to several western SEN
ators wro were active opponents OF
Canadian reciprocity that he would
favor repeal of the act.
Some of those with whom the
president has talked think he may
send message to congress on the
subject or will state his position in
his speech of acceptance when a
committee of the Chicago convention
notifies him on August 1 of his NOM
ination.
Senate leaders ay that so far the
president has had no direct COM
munication with the finance COM
mittee on the subject nor has he
sent any communication to the COM
mittee saying he favors a repeal of
the law.
Mr.. Taft will not withdraw his
own support of Canadian reciprocity

ed States should not continue an
offer that Canada refuses to accept.

NEW JERSEY WILL PUT
UP NEW THIRD TICKET
CONVENTION OF PROGRESSIVES
THERE DECIDES UPON FIGHT
ALL ALONG THE LINE.

Ashbury Park, N. New Jersey |
led the eastern states in the new |
party movement today when a mass
convention OF progrcssives launched |
a separate political organization and
decided to nominate a full state
ticket for the November elections.
The convention voted to put on the
ticket set of presidential electors
supporting Theodore Roosevelt and
send to the national progressive con-
vention in Chicago the same set of
delegates that represented the state
at the republican national conven-
ton, pledging them again TO vote for
Col. Roosevelt. The convention ar
ranged for the appointment OF a state
committee which will settle details of
party organization. 1t suggested no
name for the new party and agreed
to leave that detail and others to
the national convention.
The possibility of an alliance with
| either of the old established parties
| was denied in vigorous terms.
| The question OF making an attempt
to capture the republican primaries
which a2itated the meeting of the
Roosevelt state committee last night
did not arise at the convention. The
committee S report made no reference
| to the matter but most of those who
attended the convention took it for
granted that no such course was in
contemplation.
All the delegates declared for a
| fight along distinct lines and all
| such expressions were enthusiastic
ally applauded.
The convention adopted without
dissent the platform recommended
by the committee on arrangements.
The frequent mention of Col. Roose-
velt's name called forth series of
demonstrations and his picture was
everywhere in the hall. The colonel
had been urged to attend, but in a
telegram to Chairman Fort, which
was read to the convention, he said:
81 wish | could come and ! would
gladly do SO if it We're possible, but l
could not go to New Jersey without
causing genuine heartburninss in the
many other states where | have been
asked and have had to refuse on the
grounds that | would speak nowhere
until after the Chicago convention.
To take any other course would he

do.
