THE MOK'ICx OKEGOX1AN. FKIDAI, JULI , laiO. ROOSEVELT WILL BACK BEVER1DEE Promises Speech in Aid of In surgent Chief, but Feels Way Cautiously. MANY VISITORS RECEIVED Tliongli Beverldge Opposed Tarlfl He Pulled With Taft on Other Measures and Managed State hood Bill In the Senate. ' (Continue Frmi Firyt Pag"-) discuss the political situation ' In In diana. "I have no doubt Mr. Roosevelt will give' out anything lie wishes to be come public about the interview," aaid Mr. Beverldge. "I gave my views on tfe Indiana situation fully, in a formal (statement several days ago," he added. "Did you come away pleased with the results of your visit?" . The Senator's smile broadened until be laughed aloud. ""Well." he said,v "I have had many talks with Mr. Roosevelt in the last few years, but never in my experience have I had one more satisfactory than that of today." Further than this Mr. Beveridge would not go. "I start on my vacation tomorrow," he added, "and needless to say, I go In a very happy frame of mind." Mr. Beveridsre said he came to Oyster Bay by appointment and that his visit had nothing to do with the other visi tors here today. " I found Colonel Roosevelt," he said, jnore alive and more interesting in things than ever." Churchill Tells of His Tight. Winston Churchill was as careful as Mr. Beveridse to keep back any speci fic information as to the conversation between Theodore Roosevelt and him self. "Colonel Roosevelt has been Inter ested in the fight since it began In 3908, when I ran for Governor." he said. This year Robert R. Bass of Peters boro, is a candidate for Governor. He may be classed with the insurgents, but the New Hampshire Republican or ganization has not opposed his nomina tion. Mr. Roosevelt wanted to know about the situation in New Hampshire and. as I am an old friend of his, I came down to tell him. "Did Mr. Roosevelt indicate his atti tude in regard to the fight In New Hampshire?" "Only by his friendly attitude. He Bald nothing to show his views." Then Mr. Churchill produced a paper on which he had written a statement. Here it is: "Our whole purpose In Xew Hamp shire this Summer is to make Mr. Bass Governor and to elect a Legislature to support him. We have done nothing else, we have meddled with nothing .else. We know Mr. Bass Is uncom promising. He has been with the pro gressive movement since It started. He Is incapable of making political deals. "The people of the state trust him and his nomination and election will be a clear-cut victory, a signal stage in the fight we began four years ago." Carter Says Division Overestimated. ifr. Carter looked gravely at the in terviewers and Informed them the people in his part of the country were .not hearing much about the insurgent movement Just now. The Senator went alone and returned to New York alone. On his return from Sagamore Hill he said that while his visit was not' a political one, he had given the Colonel considerable information about the situation in the West. "I assured him," sflid Mr. Carter, ."that the alleged divisions in the West were greatly exaggerated and that many of us were trying to obtain the came ends through different methods." Mr. Carter said he had assured Col onel Roosevelt that the strength of the Insurgent movement in the Northwest had been overestimated. The Senator was asked if there was any possibility of a breach between 'resident Taft and Colonel Roosevelt, and he replied: "I can see no danger of it. Mr. Roose velt will probably have more of a soothing Influence than any other." In addition to the political talks, Colonel Roosevelt also found time to talk about hunting in Africa. John Burroughs, the naturalist, who spent the night at Sagamore Hill, and T. J. Ader, who dropped in for luncheon, swapped stories of the jungle with him. No politicians are expected at Sagamore Hill tomorrow. . Koosevclt to Speak in Fargo, X. D. FARGO, N. D., July 7.
