his committee 20 create tariff for reve-
nue only on wool, y rate Of cents per
pound will pour 10000 600 per year into
the national treasury.

OF tho $50, 900 600 at hrsl estimated. II
this bill is permitted 10 pass by the Re-
publican senate, tariff on wool even for

Colonel s Letter.

The letter TO Mr. Munscy which Col
onel Roosevelt gave out reads in part:
January 16. 1912.
My dear Mr.. Munsey-1 have re-
Ceircd your long and cordial letter
together with the editorial Permit
me. in the first place, 10 thank you
very warmly for the editorial. II
seems 10 me that in the editorial you
actly. my dear MIR. Munscy that 10
my mind IL In itself furnishes the
answer 10 the request You make that
should openly announce that, If
nominated, l would not refuse the
nomination. Your great kindness
and the dislnterested fricndltness of
YOUR action cntiGe YOU 10 receive
from me in fun statement of the
reasons why I DO not feel that at
the present time ii would be wise or
proper for mo to make any such
statement What the needs Of the
future may demand, | cannot tell.
My dear sir / entirely agree with
YOU as to The facts that my silence
is deliberately misreprcseuted by my
enemies, with the purpose of contus-
ing good people and getting them TO
take a wrong view; and, moreover
| entirely agree with YOU that this
purpose Is at least partly achieved.
The trouble is that, as so often hap
pens, this Is case where any course
pursued would lead TO Just such mis-
representation, Just such misjudg
ment. Just such puzzling Of the minds
of good people.
What l have said to YOU, and am
about to say TO YOU, | have, for in
stance. said not only TO other friends
who think ! ought to he nominated
but TO friends (and even foes) who
think / ought not to be nominated,
provided only / could trust their sim
cerity, intelligence and truthfulness.
For instance, ] have said the same
thing 10 Secretary Stimson, Secre-
tary Meyer and Congressman Long
worth who are supporting Taft: to
Mr.. Pinchot and 10 congressman
LcnrooI and Kent, who are support
Ing La Toilette, ! have said that to
editors-.Mr. Nelson MIR. Van Valken-
burg and Mr. Wright, I practically
said that 10 the entire Aldlne club

Says He Didn Pose.

III my position were only pose. 1
should certainly act differently from
the way | am acting, for ] am we'll
aware that the way | was acting is
not the way in which to act II
desired 10 be made president But
my attitude is not a pose. I am act
Ing as l do because, according To my
lights, ] am endeavorinG, In a not
too easy position, TO do what be-
lieye the interests OF the people de-
mand. From this standpoint l am
convinced that although It is entire
ly proper for other men TO seek the
presidency. it is neither wise nor
proper for me TO do so. the conditions
being what they actually are.
| have been president; was pres-
dent for nearly eight years; I am
we'll known 30 the American peo-
pie; | am not TO be Judged by words,
but by my acts, and whether the
people like or dislike me. they have
these acts all before them for their
decision.
My usefulness in tho presidency as
conditions now are would depend not
merely upon the people wishing ms
10 be president. but upon their hav-
ing good reason TO believe that !
was president because of their
wishes. because of their desire and
should do d given Job, which they
felt could do better than any
one else. and not because Of any
political ambition on my part.

Popular Demand.

Under these circumstances I must
not put myself IN position which
would look as II L were seeking the
Office. as If I were trying to get II
for my own sake. j know we'll that
this means. in all proba bility, some
one else will be nominated and elect
cd and where others seek the nomi-
nation, their friends, as is nature,
actively work for them, and give the
skillful direction and leadership, with
ont which even a strongly aroused
public opinion generally fails TO find
expression Therefore, l have all
along felt that even if there should
be strong popular demand for me
tas to which j can pass no iudE-
menD. yet that unless this demand
were literally Overwhelming 1t could
hardly make itself effective
But Ii seems To me that It is bet
ter that 1t should not make Itself
effective rather than that by any
action of mine T should mako II seem
that ] desire the presidency for my
own sake. or am willing to accept
it unless It comes to me as the re-
suit Of real popular movement,
giving expression to n demand from
at least a substantial portion of the
plain people that I should undertake
a given task In the interest OF tho
people as n whole. Before speak
there should be some tangible evil
dcnce that such is the case.
With very high regard. faithfully
yours, THEODORE ROOSEVELT.
