TAFT'S CAMPAIGN
IS LAUNCHED
FIRST SCENE OF 1912 FIGHT FoR
REELECTION is TAKING
PLACE IN NEW YORK.
WITHDRAWAL IGNORED,
HIlIss New National Chairman and ].
D. Reynolds, Secretary, Declare
< Confidence Of Party In
Candidates.

Warrington, July 10.-The campaign
for the reelection Of President Taft
b being formally in New York. James
B. Reynolds Of Massachusetts,, who
was named as secretary of the Repub-
ucan national committee will do the
launching and G. D. Hilles. President
Taft's secretary, who was selected
for chairman Of the national commit
tee, will Join him in New York ON
Monday to aid in the work.
Mr.. Hilles issued a statement de-
claring the confidence Of the Republic
can party in its cause and its candi-
dates.
The subcommittee of the national
committee held . conference with
President Taft. Mr.. Hilles and Mr..
Reynolds were chosen to their posi-
tons unanimously.
The subcommittee adjourned until
July 10, when it will meet in New
York. At that meeting 1t is probable
that IN advisory committee of five
1aen and probably an executive COM
Sttss Of - or ten will be an
rn0unced. Mr.. Hilies and other leaders
Twsrs hopeful that the treasurer would
be named at the next meeting.
Although many of the members Of
the subcommittee left Washington
after the chairman was settled, sew
sral stayed long enough to have short
conferences with the president and
his newly elected campaign manager.
They proceeded to organize Mr.. Taft's
campaign, quite undisturbed by the
report that number of Progressive
Republicans we're going to circulate
petitions to ask him to withdraw from
tie ticket. None Of the committeeman
regarded that movement seriously in
view Of the fact that it was being pro-
posed entirely by men. who had lost
ut Chicago. They admitted that the
campaign would be bitterly fought, but
among them there were many express
sions Of confidence in the reelection
Of Mr.. Taft.
