pledged himself to support Taft for a

Mr. Ni.yes states that he understood
that 1 did so express myself to a mem

lieves that President Taft thinks that
h has assurances of support from me.
Mr. Noes adds that he explains my

"I made no such statement to any

"The simple fact Is that these stories
are not misunderstanding; Ihcy are de

"Mr. Taft thinks nothing of the kind.
He knows he has no assurance of sup

nor any one else has one least little

Roosevelt JJoomers Take Possession
or Kcnt-Kree llendquarters In
Huilili:iS Owned !' Miictt
ilne Kdltor In Capital.
WASHINGTON. March 4. The Na
tional Taft headquarters In Washing
ton today gave out the following: state
ment: Senator Dixon, pf Montana, the new
chairman of the Roosevelt committee,
took formal charge of the campaign of
the ex-President for re-nomlnatlon by
officially opening spacious headquarters
In the Jlunsey building in Washlng-
tn- . A
"This building' is owned by Frank; A.
Munsey. the well-known publisher of
Munsey's Magazine, and owner of . a
slrlno- of newspapers in Eastern cities.
He Is the personal and Intimate friend
of George W. Perkins, of New York, di
rector and formerly chairman of the
finance committee of the International
Harvester Company. Mr. Perkins is
plven credit by Walter L. Houser. di
rector of Senator La Follette's cam
paign, for being the "Rood angel" of
the Roosevelt pocketbook. which means
lie Is the campaign collector as well
as substantial contributor to the Roose
velt campaign fund.
Kooaevelt "Well Heeled."
"That the Roosevelt committee,
through the personal campaign con
tributions of such gentlemen as Messrs.
Perkins and Munsey and their associ
ates is "well heeled- financially either
by actual money contributions or by
the gratuitous tender of headquarters
rent free Is manifest by Its various ac
tivities. Because of his close associa
tion with Mr. Perkins, who personally
financed In larse part the beginning of
the Roosevelt boom for the Presidency.
Mr. Munsey Is now part and parcel of
the Roosevelt movement and the loca
tion of the National Roosevelt head
quarters in lils fine building in the
National rnpltal thus becomes espe
cially slcnlflesnt.
"The enthusiasm with which the
Roosevelt boomers took possession of
their new headquarters today led one of
them In an unguarded moment to say
that a letter, purporting to have been
written by a head of the steel trust to
his employes, ordering them to 'work
for Taft" was in the possession of the
Roosevelt managers and 'Would be
sprung- aa an offset" to the undenied
charge of Mr. Houser that men high In
the council of the United States Steel
Corporation and the International Har
vester Company openly were support
ing Mr. Roosevelt.
"The remarkable fact about this al
leged letter Is that the only copy In
existence. If It exists at all. seems to be
In the sole possession of Mr. Roosevelt's
campaign managers. Of their ability.
by reason of their lntnimate connection
with Mr. Perkins and others, to know
what the United States Steel Corpora
tion Is doing or contemplates doing to
escape the charges made openly by Mr.
Houser, representing Senator La Kol
lette. there can be no dispute.
"So far as Mr. Taf t s campaign man
agers are concerned, they would have
remained in total Ignorance of the
"frame-up" had not one of Mr. Roose
velt's boomers let his enthusiasm get
the better of his judgment."
Representative McKin,ley, director of
the Taft headquarters, made an op
timistic statement to newspaper men
today declaring that Mr. Taft's nomi
nation and election are certain.
MrKlnley Is ConBdent.
"I am thoroughly convinced of Mr.
Taft's success at the convention In
June and at the polls in November."
he said. "Our preliminary canvass of
the country shows that the President
is gaining steadily In the confidence of
the average citlsen. With hardly an
exception every primary and conven
tion held to date has Indorsed the Ad
ministration and Instructed delegates
for Mr. Taft. This is true m parts
of the country commonly regarded as
hostile to the President.
'I am satisfied Mr. Taft will have
more than two-thirds of the delegates
to the Chicago convention. The splen
did achievements of the Administra
tion, the steadfastness of the Presi
Hnt to move forward for a rational
progressive programme, his refusal to
play politics in the Presidential office
und his square ueanng iowaru an
classes of our people are becoming mi

he will win the election.

TAFT IS ASSAILED
Bristow Hints That Postmas
ters Are Coerced.
INVESTIGATION IS ASKED
Intimation Made Tliat Federal Of
ficeholders Friendly to Roosevelt
Are Being Harassed by Ad
ministration Men.
WASHINGTON, March 4. A thorough
tnvocHe-atfnn to determine whether
postmasters are being coerced in the
interest of any Presidential candidate
is contemplated In a resolution intro
duced today by Senator Bristow, ot
Kansas, a progressive Republican.
The resolution, apparently aimed at
e. n.n,ilt iii-trp n innuirv
rrpsiueia i a 1 1. nuu.u " - . -
into reports that ten nominations for
postmasters in iortn taionna
were withdrawn by the President to
influence politicians In that state.
Resolution Create Stir.
The inquiry, probably by a subcom
mittee. of the Senate postoffice com-
r . ha ,ltr..eten to flscer-
mtttee, aiaw "'." -
tain whether postmasters are belns
threatened with removal if they fail to
give their support to certain candidates
and whether Postoffice Inspectors are
being sent through the country as po
litical emissaries.
The resolution created a stir, and
there was an intimation that Federal
officeholders in the South friendly to
Theodore Roosevelt were being- ha
rassed. Mr. Bri.stow presented a letter from
George R. Lewis. Postmaster at Bes
semer, Ala., addressed to Wr. J. Marls,
a Postoffice Inspector. Lewis is a sup
porter of Mr. Roosevelt, and the letter
was written in response to one repri
manding him for engaging in "perni
cious political activity."
C'oanter-Chargea Made.
Lewis declared that his reprimand
was due entirely to his support of the
ex-President, and charged, in retalia
tion, that Alabama was "'seething with
political activity" in behalf of I'resl
dent Taft.
At Mr. Bristow's request the clerk
began reading the letter, but had not
proceeded far when Senator Gallinger
objected. He declared it to be "an ex
traordinary proceeding-," and said the
reading of letters criticising the Presi
dent should not be tolerated by the
Senate. . .
Senator Bristow then called for tne
letter and read it himself, the Senate
giving careful attention. The writer
especially charged activity In behalf of
President Taft by Truman H. Aldrich,
Postmaster at Birmingham. The reso
lution was referred to the committee
on contingent expenses.

SERMONS TO BE CANNED
Young Theologs Will Deliver Ser
mons to Phonographs.
h-ii.i.hiettk UNIVERSITY. Salem,
Or., March 4. (Special.) The powers
that be at the Kimoan uonese ui i nc
oloey have hit upon a plan which it is
claimed will make the .punishment com
plete for the young theologists. At
the same time, it is hoped, the proced
ure will have a practical side, render
ing great benefits to the rising aspir
ants for pulpit honors.
It has been ordained that the theo
logs deliver their sermons before a
phonograph and listen to their repro
ductions before delivering them to the
public.
The plan has been in operation for
only a few weeks, but already seems
to have much to commend tt, and the
results even at this early day eminently
justify the best hopes of the originator.
Owing to the marked success of the
method it is proposed to organize a
society for the general adoption of the
movement.
