REPUBLICANS OF

Boston. July D.-Interest in the canvass
Massachusetts, which has already been
started with an energy seldom In evil
dence In this state, was heightened to-
day by the calling OF a meeting Of the
Republican state committee TO make ar
rangements for the coming Republican
state convention and the Republican cam
paIgn.
The meeting today was especially for
the purpose OF selecting a date for the
convention, deciding upon the permanent
chairman OF the convention and appoint
ing chairman and four members at
large of the committee on resolutions.
The Republican party leaders OF the
state have been induced TO make an un-
usually early start in their campaign for
the election OF a state ticket by the ac-
tivity OF the Democratic leaders. espe-
cially by the attitude Of District Attor-
ney John B. Moran, who has already re-
ceived the Prohibition nomination for
governor, and who Is an avowed and
earnest candidate for the regular Demo-
cratic nomination.
Mr.. Moran has already announced the
platform upon which ne wishes to stand
as candidate and has expressed the
opinion that the naming OF a fusion tick
ct by Democratic convention would
best subserve the interests OF the Dem
ocratic party. The candidacy of the dis
trict attorney 1T is alleged. does not meet
with the favor OF the element OF the con-
servative wing Of the party. some of
