tention of the California congressional
delegation. Senator Perkins has rec

The activity of the aspirants and the
interest displayed by the delegation do

John F. Irish, Each OF the aspiring
republicans entertains the hope that
Colonel irish will be tempted to resign

Elliott was the central object OF num-

pendent cavalry regiments and bri-
gades of artillery, numbering in all
2e, 900 men on the Aoyama field today.
II is expected that these troops will

mercantile circles testify to the worth
and capability OF Senator RaIston.
Others equally prominent IN the busl-
ness world indorse Senator Cutter as
d man OF high character and excep-
tionai fitness. II is said that names Of
leading republicans in every county Of
the state may be found. on the petit
tions.
The incident comes to ligk. that SEN
ator RaIston was recommended to the
president before former Congressman
Woods Withdrew from the contest
Some Of the politicians are circulating
the report that one OF the members Of
our delegation in congress openly sup
rorted one aspIrant while he secretly
espoused the cause Of another. Other
politicians insist thatthere was nothing
more than trivial mistake.
II Ia claimed that the entire delega-
tion was solid for Woods and that the
Endorsement OF another was filed with
the understanding that Il was not to be
considered as long ss Woods was In the
heid.
An old timer in the ranks Of the party
made this comment on the topic at the
Union League Club yesterday:

delegation was supporting one can6i-
date while holding out the glad hand
Of promise to another ought not to be
accepted AZ fact. Such political tac-
tics may be countenanced by raw east

the open. II is all right for a member
of congress 10 send to the president
all the recommendation he receives.
The responsibility is thus passed UP to

was not acceptable to the president
and another name was sent in for the
