 In Pennsylvania the gallant leader
 of the Roosevelt forces is the hack
 neyed politician. Boss Film, who

 former Boss Quay.
 In New York Mir. Rooseyelt's most
 effective workers were George w.
 Perkins, who was not political

 years boss Of the state machine: Gen eral James $. Clarkson, who was at one time chairman of the republican national committee and who served as surveyor Of the Port of New York
 under the Roosevelt administration, and Lucius N Llttauer of the Glow ersville district, who was one of the Cannon clique during his service in congress. Littauer's friends had framed up a glove schedule for the Psyne-Aldrich bill which would have resulted in an outrageous increase in the duty on gloves. It is said that the president served personal notice on Speaker Cannon that if congress adopted the proposed glove schedule he would veto the bill and justify his action by an analysis of that one schedule.
