Maine and Michigan VIII

Trip Probable.

Republican campaign managers are
booking TO Colonel Theodore Roosevelt
20 win the campaign for Charles r.
Hughes. This became apparent yes
terdsv. when William R. Wilcox, chair
nan Of the Republican National Com

because OF the intention to ask HIM
70 speak in states where the fight was
The hottest. Thus far only two speak
ING dates have been fixed for Colonel
Roosevelt Lewiston, Ne. on August
81. and Battle Creek. Mich, on Sep
TENDER 80.
The colonel will make half dozen or
more speeches, but Chairman WILCOX
wants to find out where he is needed
most before fixing his engagements.
Mr.. Roosevelt, it is understood, has
placed himself at the disposal Of the
national chairman, and there is every
indication that his services will be IN
big demand.
Call from Middle West
The Colonel will likely be sent
through the Middle West, reports from
which have modified the certainty Of the
Republican campaign managers. A. 1.
Hert. manager Of the Western hesdquar-
ters at Chicago, has sent urgent messages
10 Chairman Wilcox asking that Roose-
welt be sent through that part OF the
country If he expects the states that
compose it TO be in the Republican col
umn.
Ralph L. Cole, chairman Of the
speakers' bureau Of the national COM
mittee. received word yesterday that
a tremendous welcome awaits the
colonel when he speaks in Michigan.
There will be an old-fashioned parade.
with twenty-five bands, followed by
big barbecue, the beeves for which
are now being selected. Special trains
will be run from the cities and towns
near Battle Creek.
Mr.. Cole said yesterday that eX-
President Taft and ex-senator Elihu
Root would speak in the Maine cam
paign, and that James r. Garfield also
would make some speeches there.
Advisory Committee to Meet.
The advisory committee recently APP
pointed by Chairman Wilcox will hold
its first meeting on Tuesday. For the
most part it is composed Of practical
politicians. who are expected to put
some "pep" into the campaign.
Harold G, Andt, secretary Of the
Hughes Alliance, returned from a trip
upstate yesterday with the cheering
news that Mr.. Hughes was a favoritc
in that section and would lead Presi-
dent Wilson by big majority on Elec-
tion Day.
