ROOSEVELT PLEASED : President Delighted With Reports From Chairman Penrose. | PENNSYLVANIA WILL BE TRUE i He is Told That the Keystone State Will Roll Up a Big Majority Next Month For Republicanism and Pro* I perity. [Special Correspondence.] Philadelphia. Oct. IJ. President ! Roosevelt's interest in the election in ! Pennsylvania next month was signifi cantly manifested In a talk with Sena ! tor Penrose, who was among the visi i tors at the White House last week, j The president made no secret of his feeling of gratitude toward the Repub ; licans of the Keystone state for the j conspicuous part taken by their dele j gates to the last Republican national j convention in bringing about his nomi ! nation for the vice presidency, despite the opposition of Senator Hanna and ethers,, who were at that time very potential in the councils of the Repub lican national committee. Since the responsibilities of the presidency have devolved upon Roose velt there are no two men to whose judgment and advice on public affairs he gives greater consideration than Senators Quay and Penrose. CHAT WITH THE PRESIDENT. Senator Penrose's visit to Washing i ton last week was not in relation to j politics, but to close up several mat- I ters Ifefore the departments. His call • on the president was merely a social I visit, but the political situation was ; incidentally discussed. The president : was keenly interested in the reports ] given him by Senator Penrose regard ing the outlook for a large Republican ; majority in Pennsylvania on November i 3 next Senator Penrose Informed him that throughout the state the young | Republicans have tak.n hold of cam i paign work as they have never done . befc <;, and this condition Is generally i attributed to the belief that the larger I tho Republican vote in Pennsylvania j this year the greater emphasis will be ! given to the fact that Pennsylvania Is i a Roosevelt state, and proposes to lead the Roosevelt column in the coming | national campaign. The action of the last two Republl ! can state conventions in declaring for I the nomination of Roosevelt for presi i dent and the adoption of resolutions ! expressing the same sentiment by the j Per State League of Clubs , .irtve all been most pleasing to the i president, and when he learned from ! Senator Penrose the determination of | the party workers to roll up an lm | mense Republican majority next month, with a view to affecting public sentiment throughout the country, he | was more than delighted. PITTSBUIIO FOR CONVENTION. Senator Penrose, as chairman of | the Republican state committee, has decided to heartily co-operate with the ' leaders of the movement to have th» next national Republican convention held in Pittsburg. He thinks every Pennsylvanian should exert hiinself to help along this agitation. "It would be particularly fitting," said Chairman Penrose, "that, with Roosevelt as the candidate and a con tinuance of the protective tariff the main issue in the coming campaign, that the candidate should be named and the platform formulated in Pitts burg, the birthplace of the Republican party and the centre of industrial prosperity of -he nation. There could be no more appropriate meeting place than Pittsburg for the national con vention next year when we will cele brate the 50th anniversary of the or ganization of the Republican party. "With the delegates coaling from all parts of the country, what an ob ject lesson in the cause of protectijn would be presented in Pittsburg and the valleys of the Allegheny and the Manongahela? "In no section of the country can there be given a better exemplification of the desirability of a continuance of the policy of a protective tarifT than In Pittsburg and vicinity. The smoke and the flames from the blasts and the coke ovens of Pennsylvania should be enough to convince the most radical of the so-called tariff revisionists of the middle west that there must be no tinkering with the tariff to disturb business conditions and deprive Ameri can labor of employment, just at this time when prosperity abounds In all industrial enterprises. "While, of course, we think there inay be objections from western states to Pennsylvania again getting the na tional convention, after Philadelphia had it last time, we feel that we can present the best argument for their taking our choice for th« convention city." secret of Being iiood.
