LaFolIette Men Desert teddy.

On March 2. dispatches from the
west appeared in newspapers alleging
that La'ollette supporters in North
Dakota were turning from Roosevelt
and supporting Taft because of the
connection Of Mr.. Perkins and Medill
Mccormick. of Chicago, with the In
ternational Harvester company. Mr..
Mccormick has been one Of the lead
ers I'm the Roosevelt boom, and held
full sway until Mr.. Dixon took charge
Of the campaign
He Is regarded as one Of the most
important factors In the international
Harvester company.
When Colonel Roosevelt was shown
the western dispatchs he merely
laughed, as though he thought tho
matter not worthy Of comment. Not
a word would he say on the subject.
The colonel has been quoted I'm the
past as having said that whatever Mr..
Perkins did in his behalf was done
for no other reason than because OF
Mr.. Perkins personal friendship for
him.

OYSTER BAY, n. Y, March c.
George w. Perkins. former partner of

to Theodore Roosevelt here today. Mr..
Perkins supposed activity in behalf
OF Colonel Roosevelt and his connec-

accept the presidential nomination.
Mr.. Perkins slipped inconspiclously

clip. that no one could tell who was
within. The New York financier re-
NAMED only short time at Sycamore

All that Colonel Roosevelt would
say Of the visit was that Mr.. Perkins
came as the bearer Of a message from
Senator Dixon, the colonels campaign
