Mr. Taft'a speech bristled with counter.

Roosevelt had wilfully misrepresented
him, had falsely distorted some of his
public utterances, had failed to Hva up
to hla policy of a square deal and had
violated a solemn promloe to tha Ameri

"That promise and hla treatment of It:

kind he may make for tha future.'
Declaring that Mr. Rooeevelt "ought
not to be selected as a candidate of any
party," Mr. Taft aald that tha former
prealdent might now be paving tha way,
if successful In tha present campaign, to
remain tha chief executive of the nation
for as many years aa hla natural Ufa

Mr. Taft aald that Colonel Roosevelt's
