and 1t is not impossible that one or
more dark horses will soon be sprung.
Neither of the leaders managers yield
an iota in their expressions of conf
dence, but it is significant that now,
for the first time, there is serious talk
of selecting some new man. Governor
McConnelfs name is mentioned in this
connection, also that of w. T.. Borah.
There are some members ready to go
to one or the other of these gentlemen.
Borah's name is most frequently men
toned, and If the feeling should con-
tinue to develop. it would not be impos-
sible that his election would solve the
problem.
