W. J. BRYAN TALKS ON
ROOSEVELT CANDIDACY
Theodore Roosevelt Tells Public Pub.
lie the Man He Made President
Is Unfit, Says Bryan

SALT LAKE CITY, Feb. 27.-Char
acterizing the candidacy of Roosevelt
for the Republican presidential nomin
alton as an indictment of the admins
tration more severe than any proposed
by the democrats, William J. Bryan
said at a public meeting here last
night:
"Mr Roosevelt tells you this man
Taft, whom he put upon you, is not
fit to be renominated.' Roosevelt
guaranteed Taft, and it is a principle
of law that you can't come onto the
guarantor unless the principal is in
solvent"
An incidental mention of Gov. Will
son, of New Jersey, brought round
of applause from the packed theater
Mr.. Bryan took occasion to explain
that he had made no choice among
Democratic aspirants for the presi
dancy and would support any nominee
who was not a standpatter-a man
who stands still while everyone else
is going ahead.
81 do not regard myself as the
strongest man in the Democratic par
ty now, and have no wish or inclina
tion to be it's candidate for president,
he declared.

CANDIDATE TO CONGRESS
All to Attend Republican
Meeting at Tacoma--Teddy's
Stand Attacked

SEATTLE, Feb. 2S.-Headed to-
ward Tacoma, where they will join a
preliminary conference of county rep
resentatives and political leaders on
the eve of the Republican state COM
mittee meeting in that city, Thursday,
Col. w. w. Robertson, owner of the
North Yakima Republic, Albert John
son, editor and proprietor of the
Grays Harbor Washingtonian and a
candidate-at-large for congress, and
w. A. Rupp, editor of the Aberdeen
World, met in Seattle yesterday.
The three newspaper men Joined in
a conference over state and national
politics. All three are working for
Mr. Johnson's candidacy and at the
same time took advantage of the oc-
casion to canvass state sentiment in
national affairs.
Test Of Taft Strength
Today's conference at Tacoma will
determine the relative strength of
Roosevelt and Taft advocates and de-
termine largely, in advance of Thurs.
days meeting, whether the delegates
to the state convention will be Sc
lected by primary or convention sys-
TEN, or whether the choice of selec.
ton will be left to the various coun-
ty committees. At dinner tonight at
the Tacoma hotel will close the con-
ference, which was arranged by State
Chairman B. w. Coiner.
Discussing the conference, Mr.
Rupp said: 1--WE met here partly by
accident and party as a sort of pre-
liminary to the Republican conference
at Tacoma tomorrow and partly to
outline a program to further the in
terests Of Mr.. Johnson, who is a candi.
date-at-large for congress. While the
talk was general in it's nature, we
have concluded that the candidacy Of
Mr.. johnson to be successful must
be supported by the press Of the
state. Mr.. Johnson appeals first to
the press because he is a newspaper
man and naturally we expect the SUD
port of the press for him.

Teddy's Policies Not Enforc-
ed as He Expected They
Would Be
REFORM IS CAST ASIDE
Party Machinery Restored to
to Those From Whom Il
was Wrested

! WASHINGTON, d. c., Feb. 26.-
Now that Colonel Theodore Roosevelt
has made his reply to the governors
announcing that he will accept the re-
publican nomination. should it be tend.
cred to him, his friends tonight were
willing to detail the circumstances
which led up to his decision.
No president, they say, ever started
his administration under fairer aus
pices or with more earnest wishes for
his success from his predecessor than
did President Taft. The republican
party was united, the "old guard"
which had been forced to accept Mr..
Taft had been beaten into acquies-
cence and Colonel Roosevelt believed
his successor would remove the
stumps from the path of progressive
legislation which he had blazed.
Between the election and the inau-
guration Colonel Roosevelt learned
that Mr.. Taft was comforting with
Senator Aldrich and Mr.. Cannon, then
had been the ringleaders of the oppo.
sition to his policies and to Mr.. Taft's
nomination.
Trip to Africa
In order not to embarass Mr.. Taft
Colonel Roosevelt went to Africa and
Europe, remaining abroad Is months.
When he returned he found the presi.
dent had abandoned the men who had
made his nomination and election pos
sible; had acted with Speaker Cannon
for the reorganization of the house;
had approved the Aldrich tariff law
and had indorsed Senator Aldrich.
He learned also of the Ballinger.
Pinchot controversy; was informed
that the various commissions he had
projected for the betterment of social
conditions had been cast aside, and
found obstacles being placed in the
way of the enforcement of the pure
food laws, which ultimately resulted in
the attempt to drive DR.. Wiley from
public service.
Has Been Keen Observer
Since he has been home Colonel
Roosevelt has watched legislation and
political developments with the keen
est attention. He has seen the ma
chinery of the republican party re-
stored to the hands of the men from
yyb tad u ~,
reascendency of these men in the af-
fairs of the nation and their control
over the legislation enacted
Instead of the continued progress in
governmental reform in line with the
wishes of the people he has seen, ac-
cOrding to his friends, a general reac-
ton brought about through the instr,l-
mentality of governmental inertia,
which has been manifest particularly
in the senate leaders. The Roosevelt
policies which Mr. Taft was expected
friends of the former president, been
enforced.
So far as holding the presidential of.
fee is concerned. Colonel Roosevelt
realizes he has nothing to gain and
everything to lose AS a result of his
seven years in the White House he
has made place for himself in his
tory. Looking back upon his achieve
ments, his friends say he was respon-
sible for reforms which are national
and international landmarks and that
the Roosevelt era will be regarded in
the future as one of the most notable
the republic ever enjoyed.
