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."
