Governor of Nebraska Urges His
Nomination for Presi?
dency.
Lincoln Neb., Oeoember II.?Com?
menting this evening on the filing to?
day of the p.amo of Colonel Roosevelt
for the presidential preference primary
?lection In April, riorornor Chester H.
Aldrich said:
"Without doubt his nVme could go on
the ballot In every State In the Union
tf Colonel Roosevelt would aven glvo
the slightest Indication that ho would
sanction it. and ho would be> nomi?
nated for President at the next national
convention Just as easily as he w?o In
1904.
"Here In Nebraska there IS a latent
sentiment that needs but slight encour?
agement to become tho dominating po?
litical force in the State. But t% spite
of Colonel Roosevelt's declaration that
ha does not wish to bo a candidate for
offlce under any etroutnatances, the
people of this country may put him in
& position that ho may feel ii, to be his
moral and patriotic Aaty to accept
the nomination.
"The people eleoted him to the ex?
alted position of the presidency when
ho wanted it, and It would be his
grateful duty to become a candidate
because thoy wont him.
"Colonel Roosevelt would carry Ne?
braska and the West by even a greater
majority than he did before, which was
a record breaker. It Is my opinion that
not only beer In the West,'but over
the entire country, his nomination
would oatnent and harmonise the work?
ing force of the entire Republican
party."
Tho potitlon reforred to asked that
the name of Theodore Roosevelt bo
placed on the primary ballot as a can?
didate for tho Republican nomination
for President, and was filed here to?
day by Seoretary of State Waltt. The
petition is signed by Attorney John O.
Geiser, of Omaha, and twenty-five- other
voters. Mr. Geiser declined to say
whether or not ha wee authorized by
Colonel Roosevelt to file the petition,
but admitted that he had been In cor?
respondence with Mr. Roosovelt

10 SUPPORT TAFT
Assurances Given by Chairman
? Koenig?Barnes Has No
Candidate.
New fork, December 21.?President
Tatt went back to Washington early
to-day with assurances from Samuel
Koenig. Republican county chairman,
that he would have the support or
the New York county delegation at
the coming national convention. Chair?
man Koenig took thn occasion of the
President's visit to state that ColonU
Roosevelt was not a candidate for
1912,
Tho President returned without sow?
ing Colonel Roosevelt or receiving any
communication from him. a visit paid
by Dr. Lyman Abbott started a report
that he was an ambassador froiri his
associate In magazlno ?'ork, but this
Dr. Abbott promptly denied.
While William Barnes, Jr., the Re?
publican Stote chairman, would not
confirm the report that he and Mr.
Tuft settled their differences yester?
day, and that Harnes ?promised tho
President his support, the State chair?
man did say this:
"1 do not believo It Is my function
to press or urge upon the Republican
electorate Republican candidates. I
assume that whoever Is nominated
will adhere to the principles that will
be adopted."
Mr. Barnes added that he would
strive to have the Republican Wtnto
convention which will elect delegates
to the national convention adopt a
declaration of principles that would
be a clear and decisive expression of
Republican doctrine, "which to my
mind." "ne said, "Implies resistance to
polltlcil (jfror, half-thought-out ideas.
Ill-considered and dangerous demands."

COLLEGES CLOSE
FOR CHRISTMAS
Hundreds of Students Leave
Richmond for Home and One
Big Feed.
Richmond to-day Is e-s harr on of the
callow college youth as Richmond over
Is, oven in the arid month of July,
when college activity Is at Its loweal
ebb. for all of Richmond's oollages
hav? declared a brief respite from the
tolls and turmoils of the class room.I
so that those who are on knowledge
bent may mingle with the folks at
home and enjoy the Christinas turkey
by their own firesides, with the cran?
berry sauce boiled to a nicety, by the
mother who knows how, and his tur
keyness browned with ths skill of
years of experience.
All of which Is by wiy of saying
that Richmond College, ths 'Woman's
College, the Medical College of Vir?
ginia, the University College of Medi?
cine, the Union Theological Seminary,
and all the other * graduate and prep,
schools, calling Richmond homo, have
stopped the business of teaohlng the
young idea how to shoot for tho nonce,
In anticipation of Yule-tlds festivities,
and to let their scholars go home.
The Imputation that all college
mouths are callow must bo taken with,
a grain of salt. Indeed there are men!
of vastly mature ages who enter tho
halls of wisdom located In Richmond.
But nearly all. In fact, one might bei
forglvon for saying all, becomo callow
along about .December 36, for It 1b
then that the boy In man asserts It?
self and a mighty poor man it la who
falls to hear tho call of the Christmas
spirit.
Hallway Stntlona Crowded.
If ono doubts that there was yes?
terday a general exodus of the student
body of Richmond, tho doubting ono
should have visited the railway sta?
tions, or better still, the barber shops,
just prior to train time. .In the par?
lors of the tonsorlalists mountains ot
wisdom, potentially, at least, were sit?
ting In lathered anticipation of tho big
fireplace at home, and the great logs
uncovered from tholr blanket of enow,
with mellow pumpkins. Just pining to
be turned Into nlco pics.
Tho expressions, "lathered anticipa?
tion," might bs misleading, though
there Is no question but that tho lath?
ered ones were deep In antlolpatlve
pleasures, while the lather was still
wet.
Of oourse, many of ths high bTows
of to-morrow dodged the open palm of
Mr. Barbar, but that was more because
of Inability to gild tho palm than
through nny particularly frugal spirit
which might have been developed In
college. .However, they aro all at home
now, or at least aro homeward bound,
and to-morrow will be telling father
and mother and sister and brother
just what arithmetical progression
really means and how It 1b Impossible
to successfully plant an acre "of wheat
without first having mastered Aeniil,
at least. To all ot which father and
mother and sister and brothor will
