WI PRICE ONE © ROOSEVELT WILL BOLT PARTY Tl HIS GHAGRIN Al LOSING, BANNARD FEARS Sentiment for Colonel Is Dy- ing Out, Says Head of Re- publican Club. “HE’S KILLING HIMSELF.” Nomination Easily Taft's, but T. R. Might Pick Up Several States and Hinder Election. Otto T. Bannard, president of the Re- peblican Club, which last night repudi- ated Col. Roosevelt in adopting resolu- tions approving President Taft and de- nouncing the recall of judges and judi- cial decisions and flat-footedly procialm- ing against the third term, sald to-day there was grave danger of Col, Roose- velt Dolting the party. | 3 | | pyress Ie E Republican ticket. e Republican Club felt called upon to take strong action against the doc- trines being advocated by Col. Roose- vet. The club's action was not direct- ed against Col. Roosevelt as an indi- vidual, but against his principals, The reoall of judges and the recall of judi- ctal decisions are matters of great im- portance to the entire nation and dras- tle action must be taken. “A committee of twenty-five will be named to plan ways and means of dis- seminating the opinions of the club throughout the country, The people at largo should know what the recall means and this committee will’ prob- ably act through other clubs through. out the country. ROOSEVELT KILLING HIM- SELF IN THREE WAYS. “Col. Roosevelt was a strong man @ short time ago, but he is killing Rimself, There are three things that Killing him: His Columbus speech, his repudiation of his third term declaration and the methods of his candidacy. “For six months Co!. Roosevelt gave the impression to 50 people that he would not be an active candidate, He did this in private talks and tn public utterances. ‘hen it seemed as though he. wanted the people to force him to accapt the candida “This call of the people, as he terms {t, Was by no means an overwhelming one, No one knew better than the Colonel the value of disappointed men with grievances coming to him: men whose political fortunes were exhaust- €d and who sought the Colonel as « means of riding Into office again, “Gol. Roosevelt used these difer- emt factors to frame up an appar- eat call from the people, making use of the s Governcrs to set the ball a-rolling. There was notn- ing artistic iu the oall. It made a poor impression. Personally I am mightily disappointed in Col. Roose- velt. I always gave him credit for Raving keen political insight. Mis eall disapproves of that impression. SBNTIMENT FOR T. R. OVING DAY BY DAY. “The Republican National Convention ts practically determined to-day. It will be Taft on the first ballot. The Roose- velt sentiment is gradually dying out and by the tme of the convention he will almost be lost sight of unless he bolts the party. “The Republican Club resotutions was particularly worked up over the ghird term matter, That was really the main cause of last night's 38 fling tts reeojutions, oA an people will never stand for a J term, and try ag be may Col. Roosevelt cannot get around his own positive decla againet third terms and of ever acce ing @ third term himself.’ i here Were 20 memsers of the Repub: Moan Club present when the resolutions were voted upon.

Side by aide with the bodies of those brought ‘eck from Havana harbor after the war with Spain, they were consigned to the earth of the Old Dominion, while a nation paid its last measure of honor. Seldom in the history of this country has there been planned a higher tribute to the memory of any man or men than that for the sixty-four dead of the Maine. Congress adjourned and Government Dusiness in- Washington was practi- cally suspended by Executive order. President Taft, most of the membors | of his Cabinet, the highest officers of the army, the navy and the Marine Corps, oMcials of the departments and the representatives of many foreign Powers participated in the exercises. TAFT AND FATHER CHADWICK SPEAK AT CEREMONIES. President Taft in his eulogy at the Maine funeral ceremontes said in part: “We meet to pay appropriate honor to the memory of the first of the coun- try's sons who gave up their lives in | our war with Spain. I do not mean by | this to charge responsibility to the | Spanish Government for the explosion of the Maine, but that the tragedy was part of the cau: which led up to the Spanish war no one familiar with |the circumstances can now doubt. | “Phat war every American can feel | proud of because it was fought with- |ont single selfish instinct and was prompted by the mout altruistic mo- tives, Beginning with a» self-donying |ordinence with respect to Cube, | Were forced into the attitude of taking | over the Philippines, and our course in | those isiands has reflected the highest jeredit om our purposes and ciuilizn- tion.” The speakers in the plaza behind the Navy Bullding, where the first part | of the ceremonies was held, were only th President Taft and} Father Chadwick, haplain of the Maine when the explosion of Feb, 1898, sent her to the bottom, and Chaplain Bayard, U N.
