STATEMtNT PART OF PLOT
AGIST THE PRESIDENT
(Continued from First Page.)
Idaho, ICew York and several southern
states. The President told today how
he thwarted this movement and frankly
named the men who had gone to the
front for him.
That was a fight against the man
Koosevelt. Today it is a, fight against
the Roosevelt policies,, the prime pur
pose being to control the national con
vention of next year and name a presi
dential candidate who will be the antith
esis' of all that Roosevelt stands for. The
fight three years ago frizzled out and
failed signally.' President Roosevelt is
serenely confident that the present fight
will come to a similar cnu. -
Once the people of the country know
the trul h of what U being done, it is
the President's belief that all the finan
cial and corporate" powers combined cm-
not nominate and elect a President Who
will do what they want done in the
White House. ;
To his . friendi today the President
made it plain that his version of Mr.
narriman's visit preceding the election
of 11104, was that Mr. Harriman wanted
ssitance from the national Republi
can committee to heip out Chairman
Odell in the Xew York state campaign
towards whose expenses he (Harriman)
had raised $100,000. The President
promised to communicate with Cortel
you and miss to see what could ne done.
He did in this case, he declared, just
what he had done in other instances
where he had been appealed to to help
in state campaigns.
To some of his visitors the President
referred to t';e statement made public
last night by Jude Parker in Albany
in which he said that it has never been
denied that '.'$150,000 was turned over
by the Equitable, Mutual and New York
Life insurances tympanies, to Air. Jor
telyou's committee, and that Congress
has refused to make an investigation
into the corporate contributions of 1004,
or to pass a law prohibiting such con
tributions 111 the future. On this sub
ject, the President referred to ti state
ment which he made on November 4,
1904, in which he said in part:
"That contributions have been made to
the Republican committee, is not the
question.'. Mr. Parkers assertion is in
effect that such -contributions have been
made for improper motives, either in
consequence of threats or in consequence
of improper promises, direct or indirect,
on the part of the recipients, but there
is not one particle of truth in the state
ment," etc..
Neither Mr. Parker, nor his support
ers, the President declared, have been
able to controvert or question the state
ments made in that answer.
The President said that to his own
knowledge, about a dozen contributions
offered by corporations had been de
clined by Chairman Cortelyou, but that
others had been accepted.

Meeting of Organization
April 16.,
New York, April 3. Perry Belmont
today sent to those specially interested
a letter stating that in obedience' to the
request of a majority of the members
of the national publicity bill organiza
tion he had issued a call for a meeting
of the organization to be held April 26,
at noon, at the Victoria hotel. The let
ter continued: v
"Present conditions indicate the im
portance of enacting a national pub
licity law on the lines of the measure
introduced in the Senate and House of
Representatives at the suggestion a"hd
through the efforts of the national pub
licity bill organization.
"The object of the proposed publicity
law of Congress is to require the publi
cation of the contributions and expendi
tures of national and congressional com
mittees. The recent New York experi
ence proves that the efficiency of state
publicity laws would be seriously im
paired by the absence of a national pub
licity law, and v.iat a national publicity
law is necessary to supplement the ef
fectiveness of such publicity laws as
have already been enacted in many" of
the states.
"The national publicity bill organiza
tion is a nonparti.an organization. It
proposes to continue its efforts at the
next session of Congress to' secure the
adoption of a national publicity law.
You are therefore earnestly requested
to attend the meeting of the organiza
tion at the Victoria hotel. Hon. W. J.
Bryan, Samuel Gompers and others will
address the meeting.''
