TAFT KEPT BUSY
WITH POLITICIANS
After Many Conferences in New
York, President Leaves for
Cleveland, Ohio.

New York, Jan. 2s.-After a day of
rest, interspersed With walking. automo-
bile riding, informal talking with friends.
and conferences with local politicians,
President Taft left New York at $50
tonight for Cleveland, on a speech
making tour that will keep him away
from washington until next Thursday.
The President was in excellent health
and said he had thoroughly enjoyed his
day in New York, and especially the out
door trips in the keen wintry air.
Accompanied by his brother. Henry w.
Taft, at whose home he had spent the
night, the President took a long stroll
on Fifth avenue during the morning. The
brothers and the Secret Service men went
as far north as Fifty-ninth street. Both
on the trip up the avenue and on the
return the President was kept busy
the salutations and greet
ings OF persons who recognized him. The
avenue was thronged at the time with
people on their way to church.
When the party returned to the Taft
home, the PRECEDENT found Timothy
Woodruff awaiting him. There was q
brief talk, and Mr.. Woodruff said that
politics was not discussed.
At noon the President left the Taft
home, with Adolph s. Ochs. publisher
Of the New York Times. with whom he
took luncheon.
In the afternoon Ambassador White
law Reid called on the President 70 pay
his respects. and S. s. KoenIg. chairman
Of the New York County Republican
committee, was also a caller. The Presi-
dent has five or six engagements in
Cleveland tomorrow and q similar num-
Der in Columbus the day following.

ROOSEVELT AND
La TOILETTE CLASH
Situation in North Dakota Sadly
Mixed Regarding Various
Candidates.

Sooner or later there IS going to be
sharp conflict between the Roosevelt men
and the La Toilette men. 1t came In
Ohio when the La Toilette managers
tried TO take charge Of the progressive
movement at a conference which they
called al Columbus, and the Roosevelt
boomers swooped down upon them and
showed the Wisconsin Senator's heuten-
ants some practical politics.
A situation has developed In North
Dakota among the progressives which is
likely to lead to more trouble. Senator
Gronna is leading the La Toilette move
ment: Senator McCumber is for Taft;
Representative Hanna Is for Roosevelt:
and his colleague in the House has lined
up with Senator Gronna. The primary
election in North Dakota will be held in
March. 1t will be one OF the first to be
held.
Before the Roosevelt movement got un-
der way. It was generally conceded that
La Toilette would carry North Dakota,
and President Tafts managers had even
considered the feasibility of putting no
ticket OF Taft delegates in the field. The
North Dakota situation was peculiar and
local. The opposition to President Taft
grew out of his Canadian reciprocity pol
icy, which the North Dakota farmers op-
posed.
With Roosevelt In the field, La Fol-
lette's following Is melting away. The
Wisconsin Senator's friends decline 10
withdraw his name. and some OF the pro-
gresslves fear that IL the vote is divided
between La Toilette and Roosevelt. that
President Taft may, after all, have
chance to win the State.

ORGANIZED MOVEMENT
Gov. Wilson Spends Some Time
With Rhode Island Democrats
and Says He Is Satisfied.

Oyster Bay, Jan. 2S.-From all that has
developed in the last few weeks, 1t is
evident that a weIl-organized secret
Roosevelt boom has been under way for
some time, and that It Is being pushed to
the limit. The Roosevelt straw votes
that are being taken in Kansas, Michi-
gan, Pennsylvania, and other States by
the Roosevelt campaign managers con-
stituts only a small part Of the work
that has been going on The activities
OF George W. Perkins, Sloan Simpson,
Ornsby McHarg, and others in the far
South have been one Of the strongest
features OF the Roosevelt boom.

of the late United States Senator Quay.
motored in from New York to-day and
had a long conference with Col. Roose-
welt. The Pennsylvania conveyed infor-
nation to the ex-President that the Key
stone State Republicans are lining up for
the coloners candidacy. He assured Mr..
Roosevelt that while Senator Penrose
may be fighting hard for President Taft,
a strong undercurrent has set in for the
colonel Mr.. Quay had a talk with SEN
stor Finn, OF Pittsburg, before coming
10 Sycamore Hill. and he brought word
from Finn that the Roosevelt boom in
the Smoky City is growing apace.
1t is understood that Gov. Osborn, OF
Michigan, one Of the original Roosevelt
third-term boomers, will visit the colonel
the latter part of this week.

Saturday He met a number OF politicians
from out in the States and laid plans
for q movement to secure TWO Roosevelt
delegates from the District OF Columbia.
It is likely that within two or three
weeks the active work OF organizing Tor

pushed. Some of the Western Senators
and Representatives who have been
quietly promoting the Roosevelt boom
expect to take the stump If necessary,
and II is barely possible that one Of

has been at work, under the
direction Of Secretary Hiles, for several
weeks. Republican politicians from all
parts OF the country have been invited
to Washington to give their views, and
a few agents have been sent out to take
political soundings, but II is expected
that the work from now on will be
prosecuted more openly and Under
stronger directing influences from WASH

been carried on so quietly and unob-

through legislation as the result OF

COMBINATION SCHEME THE
LATEST IN NEBRASKA

Omaha, Nebr.. Jan. 8.-The thorough
management and organization with which
the Roosevelt boom is being pushed was
evidenced here to-day when 1t became
known that the Roosevelt managers
had made an agreement with La Fol-
lette's friends TO combine their strength
in this State. According TO the arrange
ment. each side is to take eight dele
gates, but the candidate who eventually
gets the most votes will then command
the entire delegation. 1t is said that
similar combinations will be made in
other States where the Roosevelt and
La Toilette booms are strong.
D. c. Van Dusen, OF the La Toilette
State executive committee, acted for La
Toilette during the negotiations and
John o. Yeiser for Roosevelt. The pro-
gressive ballot will be divided equally
between Roosevelt and La Toilette, each
side having eight men on the ticket.
