HILLES REGARDS
WILSON AS MAN
TAFT MUST BEAT
Disposes of Roosevelt by Calling His
Movement the "Third Term" Party
The Tariff Is the Main
issue

Chicago, Aug. l5.--Charles d. Hilles.
chairman of the Republican national
committee, arrived in Chicago yesterday
and launched the Republican presidential
campaign in the middle West with the
assertion that he considered the Demo-
cratic party the enemy to be fought
through the campaign, and Mr. Wilson as
the man who would have to be defeated
to assure President Taft's reelection
Mr.. Ililles made no reference to Colonel
Roosevelt or the Progressive party. ex-
cept in replies to questions. Then he
spoke of the third party movement as
the third term party.
He met the members of the Republican
executive committee in conference, then
lunched with Roy O. West of Illinois at
the Chicago club and met score of
state leaders yesterday afternoon. He
said he felt more encouraged and conf
dent of Republican success than he had
at any time since President Taft's re-
nomination.
eve regard our enemy as the ancient
enemy, the Democratic party, in this
and Mr.. Wilson as the man
we will have to defeat" said Mr.. Hilles.
"0ur friends think that he will be the
issue in this campaign. Mr. Wilson has
emphasized the tariff question, and / am
inclined to think that the fight for the
will center about that issue"
