STRUGGLE IS TO Be FIERCE
ROOSEVELT TO FIGHT STAND
PATTERs" IN CONGRESS.
ronrroI of Republican Policies Will
We Bone of Contention in Great
Political Struggle.

4ccording to Washington dis
match the approaching congress prom
ises to be occupied principally with
pres dental politics. Not only are the
Mans of personal ambition to be
worked out, but the policies upon
which another congressional cam
0atgn, and then the presidential cam
na1gn to follow, are to be fought will
be developed.
The great struggle will be for con-
troll of republican policies. Mr..
Roose velt, in announcing that he will
not again be a candidate for the pres
idency, does not indicate purpose to
abandon interest in determining the
policies which his party shall stand
for after his retirement from the White
House. He does not want to remain in
the White House after one term sin his
OWL light" but he does want policies
of his determination to live through
other administrations. Whether or not
he is definite and consistent in his
purposes, he has faith in his own ideas
and wants them to survive. Outside of
congress he is building up a strong
organization, and he counts on public
sentiment, which he believes approves
his course, to influence the action of
his party in congress
The stand-patters and the railroad
people, who have been extremely act
i've since the adjournment of congress,
seem to have grown in strength with
the congressional organization, and
their purpose is to have the republi-
can policy determined by republicans
in congress rather than by a president
who is not going to succeed himself.
The several candidates for the presi-
Dental nomination will be forced by
the immediate presentation of the is
sue to choose between the president
and the "stand-patterS." At such an
early date it will be difficult choice
for those who are interested chiefly in
getting on the winning side, and some
of these may be compelled to stand
with the president as being the least
risky thing to do.
Meanwhile the democrats will be
left N a waiting position, their course
and their prospects as party depend
ing to considerable extent upon
which element of the republican party
is to dictate the republican policies.
If the "stand-patters" dominate. con-
gress and later get control of the
republican convention the democracy
will have path clearly marked before
it with the brightest possible pros
4 poets. Otherwise the political situation
is likely to become more mixed than
at present.

Mr.. Smith told the people that he

had charged that he had stolen his
platform, regarding the free passes.

Halls platform, as he only wanted to
take passes from state officials, while
he (Smith) was in favor of taking
them away from everybody.
