erates Belief In Progressive Policy.
Cleveland, Feb. 22. "My hat Is in
the ring."
That is what Theodore Roosevelt
b.i id here when an admiring Cleveland
friend sought to learn whether ho was
u candidate for the liepublicvn nomi
nation tor the presidency.
During' the brief stay of Colonel
Koosee!t in Cleveland W. F. Kirkk,
well known locally in politics, greeted
the former president, whom he knew
well.
"I want a direct answer. Colonel,"
said Mr. Kirkk. "All your friends want
to know and want to know now
whether you are to be a candidate."
"My hat Is in the ring," replied Colo
nel Roosevelt. "You will have my an
swer Monday."
Makes Four Speeches.
Relief In the political doctrines of
the "progressives" was reiterated by
Mr. Rooseveit, who made lour speech
es In Ohio. It was his flrflt trip of the
kind since the series of journeys short
ly alter his return from Africa in 11)10.
A mixture of snow and rain fell
steadily, but Colonel Roosevelt was
welcomed by crowds wherever he
went.
On the train between Columbus
and Cleveland Colonel Roosevelt con
ferred at length with a number of poli
ticians leading the Roosevelt move
ment in this state. Among them were
A. 1 Oarford of Klyrlu, member of the
Roosevelt nat'onal committee; Nath

Here Colonel Roosevelt was asked
what he tlmught of his reception In
Ohio.
"Bully, by George," was the reply.
Addressing the constitutional con
vontlon, lie several times turned aside
from his prepared speech long enough
for an epigram or two. When he
came to the subject of control of cor
porntions, he said:
"Ilig business always shudder!'
slightly when I speak of It."
The colonel's speeches In the ro
tunda of the cnpltol and In Gallon
were were devoted largely to an ex
position of his well known views upon
the baby question. At Cleveland he
piad his compliments to the wife ot
the "average American," saying that
though lie thought highly of the mnn
he thought more highlv of the man'e
wife.

The Slow
Answer!
Did you ever hear your tele
phone bell ring and ring again,
when you were busy nnd did
not answer?
If you did the operator prob
ably finally reported to the
party calling you, "They do not
answer." (Note she never
says, "They are not there.")
Then she disconnected your
line.
Perhaps five seconds later,
just six seconds too late, you
answered. You got no reply.
You, no doubt, exclaimed, "My
bell rang."
Yes, your bell did ring, but
you did not answer promptly.
Your delay caused either the
loss of a customer or inconveni
ence to a friend.
Our constant endeavor is to
give the quickest ami best tel
ephone service that human in
genuity can devise.
Your attitude in calling or
receiving calls will hinder or
aid our best elTorts. Wtn't you
