Of Florida, is out as a Roosevelt man.
The Senator will be remembered in
Washington as one of the most ardent
Democrats while i'm the Senate. but he
suffered from his antagonism to certain
railroad interests in his state and was
retired TO private life after serving
three terms. There can he no doubt Of
the Senator's attitude as he recently
gave out an authorized interview at
Jacksonville. declaring his support Of
Roosevelt, organized a Roosevelt club
and provided il with a club house. All
this has attracted much attention in
the South and there is considerable
speculation to know whether this
means that Mr.. Call is TO become an
out ard out Republican or whether he

Senator Dicloof Ohio. predicts the re-
election OF Governor Herrick by a
majority that will stun them.

oppouents. 1 know this from the re-

the forthcoming extra session. Senator
Dick said: II venture the prediction
that the 59th Congress viii not touch
the tariff The country is prosperous
and an effort TO modify the Dingley
law would result in business disturb

Representative Hughes Of West Vir-
ginia. when seen at the Arlington
recently, expressed the opinion that
|. Senator Elkins of this State would
succeed himself in spite Of the alleged
.dissensions i'm tine Republican ranks.
According to Mr.. Hughes there is con-
siderable dissatisfaction among the
Republicans over the impression that
Senator Elkins has contracted an alli-
ancesWith Governor Dawson The cleo
ton of the latter is ascribed to the
influence Of theSenator Charles F.
Teter was a candidate for Governor
against Dawson and in order to get
back at the Senator, according to Mr.
Hughes. the friends of Mr.. Teter are
