Thoy say this suggestion offers a solution to a multitude of problems confronting the -Republican party not only In the Umpire state, but lu the natloi. at large.
In discussion of the situation grow Ing out ot the nppoitr.raent of Governor üughos to the supreme court bench. It Is agreed that his re'lretnent from polltinn leaves Mr. Roosevelt as the probable dictator of the party In Now
vorn stale, will' Mr. itoosevelt as candidate for the suiiatc. it is predict ed that the Republican party would retain control of the legislature and that the Roosevelt personality lu tho fall campaign would bring success to tho entire state ticket. This new feature of the situation was widely discussed both at the capItol and the White House by senators nnd representatives, but none was willing to talte the matter up with tho president. In view of the efforts that are being made In some quarters to array Mr. Roosevelt against Mr. Taft it would be a delicate thing to broach the subject to the president.
Friends of the administration, bowever, pointed out that as a United States senator the African hunter would strengthen Mr. Tail's hands.
