 ROOSEVELT TO RUN
 BUT WILSON TO WIN
 "Col. Roosevelt will be nominated by the Republicans on the first bal lot" said Judge Vim, but he will be defeated by President Wilson at the election. This Is the judgment of both Republicans and Democrats that I talked with in New York and other big centers of population in the East.
 That Roosevelt Is the only man the Republicans have who has any considerable following. except Jus tice Hughes. who won't be a candi- date. is admitted by everybody, and as @ result politicians are turning toward him as the party Moses. However. the sober judgment of the country is still opposed to him. Of that l am confident. and he cannot be elected President"
