“RESUME CAMPAIGN” SAYS C. D. HILLES

Republican Campaign Must Go On At Top Speed After Brief Cessation. C. D. Hilles, chairman of the republican national committee, in a statement Thursday declared that the cessation of political activities which followed the attempt upon the life of Colonel Roosevelt is at an end as far as the republican committee is concerned. “The deplorable attack upon Colonel Roosevelt, arousing as it did a natural wave of sympathy and sentiment, in which President Taft and this committee freely shared, should not and cannot be considered politically,” said Chairman Hilles. “The republican campaign which together with all other campaigns has been more or less at a standstill for the last two days, is again at top speed and will continue so until election day."
