T. R. ORDERS RO
COMPROMISE
IN OHIO
Taft Has No Just Claim to
Single Buckeye Delegate,
Declares Colonel,
h
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 made
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 I'. Brown. Roosevelt
Headquarters, Columbus, Ohio:
j I have just seen a telegram sent
r 'p a f ( s o yp Vorys about n
compromise in Ohio. Until I saw
, this telegram 1 had never heard
<* the suggestion that thi r.- -lambi b<
any compromise, and I. of com •
assume that any such suggestion
came front the Taft forces.
Points to His Majority.
Tn the fust pla'-c. I would not
consent to a i omprotnise. 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 deliberat- effort
' to defraud the people and by a
trick to nullify their expressed
will.
Mr. Taft has in moral mil otjlli
ty no (laim whatever to a single
delegate-at-large from Ohio.
I wish the issue clearly made. Wo
stand for the right of the people to
choose their own candidate and to
have th, delegates carry out their
will, and any individual who at
tempts to get one delega to-a t- la rge
from Ohio for Mr. Taft is openh
taking ’he position ihat the con
vention is not to represent the will
{» of the people and ’it p diti
clans are to be encouraged to defy
the popular will and to commit an
outrage on just ice and to defraud
the people of their just rights.
New Put in Ananias Club.
An-, distiicl delegate to the state
convention from any one of the dis
tricts which went for me in Ohio,
who him Self votes for a single Taft
delegate-at-large, is commit ting an
act of treachery to the people, ami
CIZ an - v nlari X'ho condones or approves
such act is condoning and ipprov
ing treachery.
THEODORE ROOSEVELT.
I*olonel Roos velt placed. f ohinel
Harry S. New. chairman of the sub
committee on arrangements for the
ißepubliean national committee, in the
. ‘Ananias club because of New’s asser
tion in Chicago that tlte colonel was
going to that city for the national con
, vention.
There is nothing In it," said Colonel
Roosevelt. "< >f course. I may alter my
elans between now and convention
lime, but at the present time I have
not the slightest intention of going to
i 'lm ago. "
Taft to “Fight to
Last Ditch for Ohio”
t' „
WASHINGTON. May 31 Hollowing
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,
.tend 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 ch
tali 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
Ahlo i onv< ntion in line and collect the
six delegates-at-large which the Taft
’ 'ion claims there

ACTING WITH I. E.
FRETS BRANTLEY
Will ReiTesentatlvc William G.
Brantley, of the Eleventh district, go
to Baltimore as a delegate-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 made
no reply.
The nearest he has 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 Brantbr and Watson
are well known. Before the assembling
of the state convention Wednesday Mr.
Brantley was quoted as having said
positive's tiiat he would not -erve with
Mr. Watson.
it is said, moreover, that one reason
Watson threw his strength to Pendle
ton at the last minute for the chair
manship of the delegation was because,
>s between Pendleton and Brantley.
\\ atson much preferred Pendleton, and
promptly accepted the Macon man
rather than face the peril of a Brant-
Ic'. -led delegation.
. 1 r. Brantley was in no sense a can
didate for a place on the delegation,
and his election is said to have come
much in the nature of a surprise to
him. He now Is repotted to be torn
between conflicting emotions —either to
refuse to serve with Watson and fol
low Ills inclination, or to swallow his
wrath for the sake of peace and har
nioner and effectiveness in Baltimore,
and let the matter stand

SAYS IN. J. BRYAN
LINCOLN NEBR.. 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 Rryan in
The Commoner today The editorial
says:
"We have now approached near
enough to the Republican national con
vention to forecast the action of that
body Ex-President Roosevelt will
probably have a majority of Northern
states, while President Taft seems lo
haw a majority of the convention, in
cluding the Southern delegates, who
represent merely patronage and boodle.
"Mr. Roosevelt has been careful to
arrange for contesting delegates from
the South. This was the first indica
tion of his intention to boll With a
majority of Northern delegates, he is
in a position to have a convention of
his own in case his contesting dele
gates are refused admission
“The conclusion, therefore, is that Ml.
Roosevelt will be the nominee of the
regular convention or the nomine, of a
bolting convention.
"Get ready for his candidacy; he i u
quite sure to run.
"Can Roosevelt be defeated ’ Y,
by an.' good progressive. A progres
give will hold the Democratic vote, ami
the Republicans who oppose a third l
terni "-ill ■!" the rest. Mr. Clark anil I
Ml Wilson are the leading progressive
andidates Either on< of them can de- I
feat Roosevelt: lhe country will neve: i
■have a president for a third term."
