Corrick, who has just returned from a six weeks' sojourn in the east, whare he hobnobbed with politiclans of all k\ids, that Theo- dore Roosevelt will be the republican nominee for the presidency. Mr. Corrick bases his prediction on opin- fons expressed by business men, who, while business has been pretty good dur- ing the last year, do not lay it to any conditions resulting from the work or policy of the democratic administration, but rather to the result of conditions | brought on by the war in Europe. Business men of the east, Mr. Corrick #ays, are almost universally for prepar- edness and preparedness of the kind ad- vocated largely by the Oyster Bay states- man. They are not in sympathy with the manner in which the situation has been handled in the controversies with belligerent nations and say that with Roosevelt in the presidential chair a pol- fcy would be carried out that would count | for results.
