Republican Factions i'm Ohio.

The struggle among Republican fac
tons for control of the party organiza-
tion in Ohio is worth watching and
studying by anybody who is trying to
forecast conditions as they will be in
1905.
Senator Foraker has carefully re-
Trained from placing himself in the at
titude of an insurgent against the ad-
mlniStration, but by his interview Of
Monday lie gives fresh emphasis to the
fact that he is not blindly following
the trumpets of the Taft-Rooseveh band
wagon.
His resentment at Secretary Taft's
part in the Ohio campaign of last year
was hardly sc great as that which he
feels now at the suggestion of the uSe
of executive influence in Ohio politics
to push the fortunes of the Secretary,
and 1t is evident that the Taft move
ment will receive small aid and comfort
from the Senator and his following.
Foraker's opposition to the freight
rates bill and his defeat of Roosevelt's
statehood plan have not endeared him
to the administration faction in Ohio,
and even II the difference between
them Go not lead to an open break, the
friction IS likely to produce important
results both in the congressional cleo
tons OF this year and in the preSi-
dental election of 1905

them. When Gen. Leonard Wood was
representative of the Roosevelt admin

approach that figure, but to-day the
price of wheat at Chicago is less than
