Saying That He Would Not Be
Candidate in 1912
AND WOULDN'T TAKE PART
Letter Published in Washington in Reply
to Roosevelt's Denial That Taft
Had Reason to Believe Him
Not a Candidate.

Washington, ID. c., March 4.-Theo-
dore Roosevelt's denial that the Taft
administration had reason to believe he
would not be a candidate against Presi-
dent Taft, caused the publication of a
letter here last night, written by Roose-
welt, June n, 1911, concluding as fol-
lows:
j have expressed myself freely to
a large number of men in this matter,
always to the same effect, telling you
personally, ami telling Clifford Pinchot,
Jim Garfield Congressman Madison,
Billy Loeb, Secretary Meyer. Secretary
Stimson all alike, exactly what | have
always said / would not be a
candidate in 1912 myself, and that
had no intention of taking part in the
nomination, for or against any candi-
date
Sincerely yours,
Theodore Roosevelt"
Oyster Bay, n. y, March 4.-Colonel
Roosevelt yesterday said his reason for
becoming an active candidate for the
presidency was because men sharing his
political beliefs convinced him they need
ed an effective leader. He said he sup
posed many would not believe it, but
he had not wished to enter the fight.
As for his prospects of victory, the
colonel said lie believed he would re-
ctive a majority of the popular vote in
all but four or FIVE states, adding that
he felt confident he would have a ma
jority OF the Pennsylvania delegation to
Chicago.
Senator Beyeridge said there was
Roosevelt movement in every district,
but it would be hard to defeat the
which he believed would
rule the convention.
Col. Roosevelt, when shown the Wash
ington despatch quoting him as hav-
ing no intention OF becoming presi
Dental candidate in 1912, said:
II will say nothing unless the name
Of the recipient OF the letter is given
and the letter published in full. Prob
ably the language is not correctly Civ
en-. Certainly all the context in which
said | would not refuse nomination
IS suppressed"

been unlucky in having no achievement
of his term to point out which can appeal
to popular Imagination" He enumerat-
ed the principal achievements of Col.

In this address the name of Colonel
Roosevelt is not mentioned, but his cam
didaey ia referred to indirectly by argu-
roents against third and in favor OF
second term. The presidents record is
summed up as that of 'an honest, high
minded. fearless, disinterested, straight
forward, efficient, progressive chief mag
istrate.'
The statement is regarded by the
Roosevelt supporters as challenge to
battle, and they declare themselves
ready to accept it, Roosevelt headquar-
tiers will be opened in Boston to-day,
according to present plans, with an ac-
tive political leader in charge. The
progressives refused Saturday TO dis
close the name of the new manager, or
the exact location of the headquarters.
