PRE8IOENT INDORSES THE CAR.
NEGIE MOVEMENT.
Orders Adoption of System in' AH Offi
cial. Documents of the Gov
ernment. Oyster Bay, N. Y. President
Roosevelt has Indorsed the Car
negie spelling reform movement He
issued orders Friday to Public Printer
SUliings that hereafter all messages
trom the president and all other docu
ments emanating from the white
house 'shall be printed in accordance
with the recommendation of the spell
ing reform committee, headed by
Brander Matthews, professor of Eng
lish at Columbia university. This
committee has published a list of 300
words in which the spelling Is re
formed. This list contains such words as
"thru" and "tho" as the spelling for
'through" and "though." The presi
dent's official sanction of this reform
movement Is regarded as the moat
affective and speediest method' of lav
augurating the new system of spelling
throughout the country. Not only, will
the printed documents emanating
from the president utilize the reform
spelling, but his correspondence also
will be spelled in -the new style.
Secretary Loeb has seat for the list
of 300 words -which have been re
formed and upon its arrival will im
mediately order all correspondence of
the- president and of the executive
force of the white house spelled in ac
cordance therewith. As the spelling
reform committee shall adopt new re-,
forms they will be added to the presi
dent's list and also to that of- the
public printer.
While the order to the printer does
not contemplate an immediate reform
In the .spelling of official documents
from the executive departments In
Washington, it is regarded that more
than likely the respective heads of the
department will fall in lhre with the
president's Ideas and have 'their offi
cial documents -printed in the' new
spelling.

Washington. William n. Taft. .sec
retary of war, will formally communi

that he does not desire the honor of
an appointment-to the supreme court
bench. He will send-notice in time
for the president to make, a selection
before the. fan term of the supreme
court opens in October.
.Mr. Taft's indorsement for .the pres
idency by the Ohio Republican- state
convention is practically assured. He
has been considered one of the most
I prominent possibilities by Ohio Re
publicans, and in view of Speaker
Cannon's reiterated declarations that
he would not be known as a candi
date,, the secretary's plan of action is
considered most significant 'at this
time.
The Ohio Republicans 'have been
.quietly booming Mr. Taft for .the pres
idency, for months. By every, possible
method they have been advancing his
cause, even, going so far. It is under
stood, as to solicit a public expres
