DISTRICT
OUT FOR COLONEL
Taft Supporters Look for Many
Developments in Roose-
velt's Favor.

WARRINGTON, Jan. 22.-Evidence of
theo organized efforts behind the Roose-
welt boom is daily being impressed upon
President Taft and his advisors. The
President returned to Washington from
New York yesterday to find that the
regular Republican organization of the
First District of Illinois, represented
by Martin d. Madden, had by prac-
ticslly a unanimous vote mdorsed
Roosevelt for President. This is the
frst Congressional district that a de-
clared for Roosevelt.
Political observers in Washington re-
called that the first Illinois district is
the one in which Chauncey Dewey, one
of Postmaster-General Hitchcock's
friends, is leader. Special significance
was attached to the capturing of this
district by the Roosevelt boomers, for
il was pointed out hat this district
was the one which remained loyal to
Mr.. Taft in the 1908 pre-convention
campaign. Through the efforts of
Chauncey Dewey this district refused
to support Cannon for President and
brought about a split in the Illinois
delegation to the last national conven-
ton.
The Taft supporters expect IroIu
now on to be confronted with many
developments in favor of the Roose-
Welt candidacy. They are convinced
that the movement headed by George
w. Perkins is thoroughly organized
and hat political bombs will be
planted in different parts of the
try to be exploded at the proper mo-
ment for the advancement of the
Roosevelt cause.
1t was denied authoritatively yesterday
that any member of the Taft cabinet
had laid charges before the President
in regard to Hitchcock. Members Of
the cabinet, as we'll as the public gen.
orally, have, of course, s~pecuiated as
to the motives which have actuated
Mr.. Hitchcock's peculiar cctions re-
Gently and it is believed that Mr..
Hitchcock will eventually retire from
tho Taft cabinet.
Mr.. Taft's close advisers insisted to-
day that as matters now stand the
President will not call upon Mr.. Hitch
cock for his resignation.

4.642. There are nearly 1000
more for this year than for last.
Ads. last year were published in
