CAN ItOOSKVDLT III: NOMINATKD7
Last Monday Colonel Hoosevell
made known to the public his Inten
tion to ho a candlilalo for the nom
ination for tho presidency of the
United States subject to the decision
of the republican convention which
meets In Chicago on next June I nth
Coming as It did after Ills reiterated
statement In lit 04 and 1907 that h
would not again be a candidate for
(ho reason that he considered as his
flrHt term the three years and a half
that ho served as president after the
assassination or Win. MiKlnlcy the
rank and Hie of the party aro won
dering whether such a repudiation
of Ills declaration will assist him in
capturing the nomination.
The convention this year will lie
composed of 1070 delegates. The
list of stales with Ihclr number of
delegates Is ns follows:
Alabama 24 Nebraska 10
Arizona 0 Nevada 0
Arkansas Is N. llamp K
California 2li N. Jersey 88
Colorado 12 New York iin
Connecticut ... I I N. Mexico r

Or these 1070 delegates the sin
cessful candiilate iuiit get the vine
of 53(1. Whit are Mr II elfs
chances ol getting this iiiiniti-T i t

North Carolina, South Carolina (
Tennessee. Virginia, Kentucky, Mis i
sourl and Arkansas numbering In all
274 delegates. Tills accounts then!
tor r.Ml of the 1 1170 delegates. W hat
will the other MM! delegates do'.'
Wisconsin with lis 20 delegates
will vote tlrst. last and all Ihe time
ed to be a Tuft state, but let us Bay
that Roosevelt will get half the dele
Kates here as well as the entire dele
gation from Indiana (which is not
probable I. This gives the ex-iresl-deiit
438 votes. This leaves Illinois
with Us 08 delegates to be still vot
ed, (live them to Itoosevelt and he
Is still 40 votes shy of the nomina
tion. Hut the probabilities are that Tuft
will carry lor himself In the con
vention New York, Illinois, Indiana,
Maryland, dlilo and Pennsylvania,
fheso states have 318 votes. Added
,o those that we have already record
,d gives the president 770 votes in
the convention or 234 more than are
necessary to a choice.
Mr. Roosevelt with all the ex
pressions that have been heard in
his favor and with all the apparent
popular sentiment mado for hltn can
.iot hope to be nominated at Chicago.
He will not bo able to muster the
delegates from tho slates that are
really controlling In the convention.
nd besides ho has a powerful ob
itaclc In bis way, an obstacle which
will grow as tho dale of the con
vention draws near. That obstacle
la a paragraph that ho uttered him
self on November Kill. 1004, after lie
had been nominated for the presi
dency, and which Is "On the fourth
f March next I shall have served
throe and a half years, and HiIh three
and a half years constitutes my Hrsl
term. ThiB wise custom which lim
its tho president to two terms re
gards tho substance and not the
form and IfT no circumstances
will I be a candidate for or accept
mother nomination.'
