T, R. ORDERS NO
COMPROMISE
IN OHIO
Taft Has No Just Claim to
Single Buckeye Delegate,
Declares Colonel.
NEW YORK, May 31 "No compro
mise in Ohio" was the ultimatum given
out today by Theodore Roosevelt when
he heard an attempt was being tftade
to divide the delegates-at-large to be
elected by the Ohio Republican conven
tion between himself and President
Taft.
Yesterday President Taft sent a
message to Arthur Vorys saying that,
he wanted no compromise and today
Colonel Roosevelt sent this:
Hon. Walter F. Brown, Roosevelt
Headquarters, Columbus, Ohio:
I have just seen a telegram sent
by Mr. Taft to Mr. Vorys about >
compromise in Ohio. I’nlil I saw
this telegram I had never heard
the suggestion that there -bmihl b
any compromise, and 1. of course,
assume that 'any such suggestion
came from the Tait forces.
Points to His Majority.
In the first pia e. I would not
consent to a compromise, anyhow,
and in the next place we carried
Ohio by over .30.000 on the popular
primary. Any attempt to give Taft
a single delegate-at-large would
mean to sanction a deliberate effort
to defraud the people and by a
trick t<> nullify their expressed
w ill
Mr. Taft has in moral and equi
ty no claim whatever to a single
delegate-at-large from (thin.
I wish Hie issue clearly made. We
stand for the right of the people Io
choose their own candidate and to
have the delegates carry out their
will, and any individual who at
tempts to get one delegate-at-large
from <>hio for Mr Taft is openly
taking the position that the. con
vention is not to represent the will
of the people and that the politi
cians are to be encouraged to defy
the popular w ill and to commit an
outrage on justice and to defraud
tile people of their just rights.
New Put in Ananias Club.
Any district delegate to the state
convention from any one of the dis
tricts which went for me in Ohio,
who himself votes for a single Taft
delegate-it-large, is committing an
act of trciichet’y to lhe people, and
any man w ho condones or approves
such act is condoning and approv
ing treaeljery.
TH EODO R E ROOS EVE I.T.
Colonel Roosevelt placed Colonel
Harry S Nev chairman of lite sub
committee eyi arrangements for the
Republican national committee, in the
Ananias club because of New's asser
tion in Chicago that the colonel was
going to that city for the national con
vention.
There is nothing In it,” said Colonel
Roosevelt. "'lf course, I may alter my
plans between now and convention
time, but nt the present time I have
not the slightest intention of going to
i 'lm ago."
l aft to “Fight to
Last Ditch for Ohio”
WASHINGTON. May' 31. Following
one of the most generally attended con
ferences of politicians and cabinet
members held at the white house since
the opening of the campaign, numerous
telegrams today were sent to the va
rious administration leaders in Ohio and
elsewhere. The text of the telegrams
were not made public, but it was Inti
mated that they both commanded and
pleaded with the Taft followers not to
compromise with the Roosevelt forces,
and to fight to the last ditch for the
president.
Senators Cullom. Root. Penrose,
Bradley, Murray Crane and William Al
den Smith conferred from 8:30 o'clock
until noon today with the president,
and while none would discuss in d<
tai: the matters considered at the meet
ing, all admitted the political situation
is most, critical and that the president
will have a hard fight to keep the
Ohio convention in line and collect the
six rieiegatcs-at-large which the Taft
faction claims there.

ACTING WITH I. E.
FHETS BRANTLEY
Will Representative William G.
Brantley, of the Eleventh district, go
to Baltimore as a <lelegatc-at-large to
the national Democratic convention as
an associate of Thomas E. Watson?
To direct inquiry regarding that
question Mr. Brantley so far has marie
no reply.
The nearest he lias come to saying
anything specific concerning the same,
is that he would prefer not to discuss
the matter at present
The bitter and long-standing differ
ences between Brantley and Watson
are yvell known. Before the assembling
of t Ito state convention Wednesday Mr.
Brantley was quoted as having said
positively that lie would not erve with
Mr. Watson.
it is said, moreover, that one reason
Watson threyv his strength to Pendle
ton at the last minute for the chair
manship of the delegation yvas because,
as between Pendleton and Brantley.
Watson much preferred Pendleton, and
promptly accepted the Macon man
rather than face the peril of a Brant
ley-lcd delegation.
Mr. Brantley was in no sense a can
didate for a place on lite delegation,
and Ills election is said to have come
mu< h in tile nature of a surprise to
hint. He now is reported to be torn
between conflicting emotions -either to
refuse tn serve witli Watson and fol
low his inclination, or to swalloyy his
wrath for the sake of peace and har
money and effectiveness in Baltimore,
and let |he matter stand.

Hilles To Be Chief

WASHINGTON, May 31 -When It
became known today that the inter
ests of President Taft at the meet
ing of the national committee would
be In the hands of C. D. Hilles, secre
tary to Mr. Taft, it was taken by po
litical leaders here to mean that Hilles
is the president’s choice for chairman
of the Republican national committee
in case he is renominated Secretary
Hilles uould not discuss the report.
His friends said, however, that this
choice was practically a certainty.
It is not the president's plan to have
Mr. Hilles supersede former Senator
Charles Dick, of Ohio, before the com

USE TO IM
SAYS IN. J. BRYAN
LINCOLN. N’EBR., May 31.- That
Theodore Roosevelt will be a presiden
tial candidate, either nominated by the
regular Republican convention or by a
"rump" convention. Is the prediction
made by William Jennings Bryan in
The Commoner today. The editorial
says:
"We have now approached near
enough to the Republican national con
vention to forecast Hie action of that
body. Ex-Pre.sident Roosevelt will
probably have a majority of Northern
states, while President Taft seems to
have a majority of tile convention, in
cluding the Southern delegates, who
represent merely patronage and boodle.
"Mr. Rooseyelt has been careful to
arrange for contesting delegates from
the South. This was the first indica
tion of liis intention to bolt. With a
majority of Northern delegates, he is
in a position to hate a convention of
liis own in catse his contesting dele
gates are refused admission.
"The conclusion, therefore, is that. Mr.
Roosevelt will be the nominee of the
regular convention or the nomine: of a
bolting convention.
"Get ready for his candidacy . he is
quite sure to run.
"Can Roosevelt be defeated? Yes;
by any good progressive. A progres
sive will hold the Democratic vote, and
the Republicans who oppose a third
term will do the rest. Mr. t’lark and
Mr. Wilson are the leading progressive
candidates. Either one of them can de
feat Roosevelt: lite country will never
have a president for a third term."
