Allege Misrepresentation.

The Taft bureau gave out the following
statement last night:
President Taft's attitude toward pen
sions for the veterans of the civil war
has been persistently misrepresented
throughout this entire campaign by his
opponents Recently Representative Cy-
rus Sulloway Of New Hampshire. for
many years chairman Of the committee
on pensions Of the House Of Representa-
tives. went on record publicly In favor
Of President Taft and against Mr.. Roose-
welt. basing his judgment solely on the
pension records of the two candidates.
Now Representative Isaac r. Sherwood
Of Ohio, author Of the "dollar-a-day''
pension bill, with which every old soldier
Is familiar. adds his testimony in favor
OF President Taft and against Col. Roose-
welt on the pension record. The fact that
Gen. Sherwood Is a democrat only adds
to the effectiveness of his statement, as
his sole interest between republican can
didates Is to see to It that the interests
of the old soldiers are fully and amply
protected. In q recent letter to his broth
er he wrote:
What I said about President Taft
was that I believed he would sign a mod
crate pension bill that would cost about
$15, 100000. But President Roosevelt, for
all the time my 'dollar-a-day' pension bill
