WANT ROOSEVELT
 FOR GOVERNOR
Bull Mooser. of New York State Fear That Party Will Be Fsi'ender
 Unless He Consents.
 IVY 7St4r.+%l

NEW YORK, June 20.-The Bull Moose leaders of this state are still insisting that Ex-president Roosevelt shall head the state ticket of the Pro gressive party, as they do not intend that the party shall compete with the Socialist party for the booby prize at the oveNmber election. The col onel does not want to run and it is expected here that he will have his way. Organization Republicans pre- dict that no matter who is nominat- ed by the Progressive party they will poll so few votes as to forever kill the party.
 District Attorney Whitman, of New York City, is almost certain to be the nominee of the Republican party at the coming primaries. Just who will be named by the Democrats is uncertain. Ex-governor Sulzer will contest the nomination with Governor Glynn at the Democratic primaries and if defeated will probably run as an independent candidate at the head of the American party, which his friends have organized
 The Bull Moosers will try to force Roosevelt to run and may compro- mise upon Brainbridge Colby as the party candidate.
