Roosevelt in 1916, Their Program. Some Say Big North Carolina Nominations Expected This Week. The uuzette-News Huri'itu, 46 Post Uultding. w ASIIINOTON, Jhii. 1H. Ninth Carolina is nut the only state In the patronage limelight. Tie lerms of federal office holders are cvnirlng In all of the states, and it comment lo re that Postmaster Gener al Hitchcock is as busy fixing political fell' es Just as though a republican na tional convention were on the eve of assembling. Particularly is this true of Hi. states of the south. National Committeeman Duncan has of lie recent visitors at the department, and so have th I n line pnsto e re re IHeo I reos ; in ftrorgla, Alabama and other states of iln south. The row with the n snrgi "is in congress and the Italllii-Krr-rinchot controversy has set the liolitii lans of the Taft administration by the ears and they are making themselves very busy. Every ap pointment I" ing made these days Is with an eye single towards the (elec tion of ailinlnlslratlnn delegates to the next republican national convention. Thai ItiMiscvcll lcltcr. The publication of the statement that c -President Kooscvolt has writ ten a letter Horn Africa. In which he approved of the attitude f President Taft touv.ii. Is the tariff bill enacted by the lam . nngress. has attracted much attention here. This letter Is wild to have l.een received by Senator I ii'Ugr of ii.issachusitts, one of Mr. uootevelfs ' Inseat personal and poTtt leal friends The Insurgent republi cans have n.it been over pleased with tins tews They believe they have tin- endorsement of their people at home, l.nt they had counted on hav ing th.' v-. resident on their side. The 'pinion is expressed here by some of the will iiii..rmed politicians that President Taft and Mr. Koosevelt have a thoroiiKh understanding as to their future. According to this bit of gos sip Mr Tatt is to have Mr. Itoosevelt s support In all things and after the present executive has had two terms he is Im make way for the former ItoiiKh Itlder. One story Is thai If Mr. Tafl ilnds that his re-election Is impossible the administration will h. f " Mi Koosevelt. who will be nom Inatei I'S the republican national . at ion four years In tlvanci Ihi Mine agreed upon. Something lining Soon. The president Is expected to send nominations of North L'arollnluns to big federal otftees In the state to the senate during the- present week. Kep t.sentatlve (Irant and Charles J. llar 'is left the White llouia' Saturday under the impression that the nom Inallon of W. E. Ixigan so marshal in the western district will he for warded to the senate this week Har ris vouched for Logan In the strong est language, which it is reported, changed the attitude of the executive t" the lluncnmbe man. I'oth of the district attorneys In the state, Harry Skinner and A. K. Molton. expect re-oppolntment. It is learned that Mr. flklnner. like Mr. Molton. Is relying on his record at the department of justice, rather than on any polities! influence. A republican who Is on the scene expressed the "pinion that the re-appointment of II Hon would occasion no surprise "ith him. He said he believed Holton would have the endorsement of Attor ney General Wlrkersham. and de clared that the president Is not com mitted to ex-Judge Adams. This au thority said the only pledge Judge Adams has la from Postmaster Oen eial Hitchcock, and that the presl denl Is now Investigating the fight over the district attorneyship on his own hook. . M. King, who has the endorse ment of the state organisation for ap pointment as collector of customs at Wilmington to succeed H. K. Keith, will get an early appointment. Keith has been here, and has hsd Congress man Alorehead to present his papers at the treasury department, hut it n't. ears that he does not have the right endorsements. He has stacks of them from Wilmington, but not from J the republican powers in the state The principal charge against King Is I tnat he Is a Georgian sojourning In North Carolina.

NK by one North Caro linians are returning from the national capital, where I hey w ent to Ki t a line on the patronage situation. All are hoping th.- best, but lew of them appear to know anything for certain.

A few outs, it is true, may her.- and there have the temerity to ask what has has become of the (rant no-lhird-lerm battle cry, which won for him tlie nomination and gub seiiuenl election; but that is a. detail which may be eared for by time anil a .judicious distribution of garden seeds.

In a talk with a represen latlve ol this paper Mr. Logan allow ed: "I am considering the advisabil itv of withdrawing from Ihe marshal ship contest, and filing my application for tin position of cattle tick super visor. This position is fully as burn live, mid Is one that may so easily lw secured with tin proper cndoioo menls.

Logan had been back long nough, In- said, to hear about a very prominent gentleman, mentioned for Hie congressional nomination, who bad beep approached by a man ' lu wanted lilm to sign hia petition ask ing for tin- position of Dog Catcher, ..r Pound Keeper, and the aforemen tioned prominent cltlsen had been seized vvitli something closely re sembling a spasm. He also thought that Mr. Carter had begun lo beg tho question, relating to the Hlllmor" i postofTlce, and was trying to get Mr. Grant to furnish him the evidence wllh which to prosecute his case further In the newspapers. Mr. lo- gau hoped that Mr. Carter was mil, as counsel, taking any of the hard earn ed cash of a widow, about which In" had manifested such distress, and supp.'Sed tlie attorney was being paid ' by subscription. Asked about Mr McKce. Mr. Ugati said: "Mr. McKe. tins strong backing, and is endorsed ' by men of national prominence. It he had identified himself with the lo cul republican organisation, and tak en an active part in our party affairs, he would have been n formlr'ablo cundldate." from all of which it would appear that Mr. Logan aoes not look upon the McKee candidacy as being at all formidable.
