MARGIN OF 190 IS SEEN Lender Believe Delegation From Kinpire State Will Bo Almost Solid for Ronomlnation Il linois More Tnvorabte. WASHINGTON. Feb. 28. President Taft soon will start a vigorous speech making campaign to explain his posi tion on current questions and further hla candidacy for renominatlon. Before the Republican National convention meets in June the President will spend many days on the road and Is expected to deliver scores of speeches. He will travel as far west as Chicago, as far north as New Hampshire and south at least as far as Georgia. Other engage ments may be made In the next few weeks. The President's political advisers be lieve ho la their best orator. Ever since the Taft renominatlon headnuar ters were opened here, with Repre sentative McKinley in charge. Repub lican leaders have urged the President to get into the campaign. He began following this advice when he accepted an invitation of a year's standing to attend the 50th annual dinner of the Swedish-American Republican Club In Chicago. ' Speaking; Plans Growing. The acceptance of that invitation was followed by the announcement that the President had consented to stop on his way West at Toledo. O. Invitations to visit Youngstown and Massillon have been received and prob ably will be accepted. A few days. ago the White House let It be known that the President would go to Savan nah. Ga., in April or May and anight stop at Plnehurst. N. C. Tonight, after a short conference with Senators Crane. Smoot and Gallln ger. It was said the President would extend his coming visit to Boston to Include. Nashua and Concord, N. H. He will leave Washington for Boston on March 17, spend March IS there and will visit the two New Hampshire cities March 19. Although no announcement has been made of subjects for speeches the President will make on these trips. It Is practically certain that he will not fail to include In tis addresses the re call of Judges, the "recall" of Judi cial decisions, possibly the Initiative and referendum and topics touched by Colonel Roosevelt In his speech at Columbus last week. Peraoaalllle to He Avoided. President Taft will make no direct reply to that speech and it has been said with emphaais that he will not in dulge in personalities, but that he will make clear his own views on many of the doctrines advocated by Colonel Roosevelt In Columbus Is almost cer tain. A canvass of the New York political situation made at conferences today of William Barnes. Jr., chairman of the New York State Republican committee, Vice-President Sherman, State Senator Brackett and Representative Calder, a Brooklyn leader in Congress, resulted in an Informal declaration that Presi dent Taft would have almost a solid delegation to the National convention. It was asserted today that the con ference between President Taft and Chairman Barnes was satisfactory to both Insofar as the election of dele gates and the proposed wording of the platform was concerned. Representative McKinley, director of the National Taft headquarters, re turned today from Chicago, where he made arrangements for the Western end of the Taft campaign. Mr. McKin ley had a short talk with the President, but did not go over the Western sit uation in detail. To visitors at the Taft headquarters he expressed the be lief that the President was Raining in Illinois. Immediately after the announcement of Roosevelt's candidacy for the Presi dential nomination, some of Colonel Roosevelt's friends in New York pro pared a table by states, claiming S32 delegates to the Chicago convention for Mm. giving 49S to Taft and allowing for La Foilette and Cummins to gether. The number of vote necessary to nominate Is 639. No table has been given out by the Taft leaders, but they have divided the delegatem In the various states for their own purposes of calculating final re sults. On the basis of delegates already elected and from reports received from nearly all states, after making due al lowance for a few states about which no calculations have been made one way or the other, a conservative total Of 729 votes is seen for President Taft. This Is 190 more than a majority and 35 more than twice the remaining num ber of delegates. That there will be many changes In "My, Look, at Those Pimples!"

Several state leaders in confer ence with National leaders claim more for Taft than is figured on by the man agers. In New York State, for Instance, it is held by all Taft leaders that Greater New York will be solid for the President, while the up-state experts say that the only districts that will be lost to Taft will be that In which Na tional Committeeman Ward lives, and the Rochester and SjTacuse districts. Senator Penrose. It Is announced, says that the 72 Pennsylvania delegates will favor Taft. Oregon, with no Taft claims set down. Is declared to be a Taft state by Na tional Committeeman Williams. As to California, reports are such that no claims or concessions are made at this stage. North Dakota is conceded whol ly to the opposition. Some of the more sanguine Taft leaders believe that Iowa will send a Taft majority In spite of cummins favorite-son candidacy, and two -Milwaukee districts In Wisconsin are counted for Taft against La Kol lette. Texas Is counted as doubtful at present. MEAD REPORTS OX VERMONT (Governor Says Majority Favor Xom- inatlon of Taft. WASHINGTON. Feb. 28.
