ALLIES BREAK OUT
Combination of Candidates OPP
posing Taft Issues a
Manifesto.
PREDICTS TAFT'S DEFEAT
His Candidacy Machinc-Madc and
the Product of Intimi-
dation.

Washington. May 2o.-A singular
emission comes from one of the ac-
credited agents of the ALLIES" singu-
lar, because II faithfully reflects what
the leading members of that combi-
nation have been saying privately. 1t
shows, too, that the Fairbanks ele-
'ment, at least, has not altogether
given up hope of preventing the NOM
nation of Mr.. Taft The statement
begins with the assertion that an an
alysis of Frank Hitchcock's final tabu-
lated statement OF delegates chosen
proves that Taft has not enough votes
to secure the nomination, and con-
tinues:
Every uninstructed delegates signi-
flies the failure of an effort to instruct
for Taft, and the failure Of such effort
implies that even back of an endorse
ment of Secretary Taft was doubt
as to whether or not his nomination
would be advisable when the conven-
ton meets at Chicago to deliberate on
the state of the party.
The realization that the Taft man
ayers, even after having procured the
assistance of the captains of predatory
wealth. have been unable to push their
candidate over the line. coupled with
the republican party's highly develop
ed instinct of self-preservation will
help make history in the next thirty
days.
The efforts of the Taft managers arc
naturally being centered upon the Gre
alton of the belief that Secretary Taft
has enough votes to nominate. The
greater the anxiety and uncertainty on
this point the bigger the noisea
History will repeat itself at Chicago
No preconvention favorite ever won a
nomination for president in a republi-
can convention since the founding OF
the party, excepting william McKin-
ley, and back of him was tidal wave
of popular sentiment which Is not
surging for Secretary Taft, and Harri.
son In 1892 was nominated by tn,
ofiiceholders and beaten by the peo.
Pile Seward had two-thirds of tho
/ delegates to the convention of 1861
pledged. Blaine was within twenty
six votes of nomination on the frs
ballot in, 1s76-nearer than Secretar,
Taft will be.
The fatal weakness of the Taft can
didacy Is that Is Is an absolutely ma
chine made product, not vitalized b.
popular sentiment It's band wagon I
loaded down with men who will jun
over the wheel tho moment the vohicl
shows a sign of stallIng; and the sigi
IS in sight.
The Chicago convention will make
nomination not the product of intIm
idation not tho result of cowardice OF
the part of the party leadership, no
involving the surrender of party pros
poets In a hundred congressional dis
tricts and dozen northern and horde
Estates and not imposing on the repub
publican party the necessity Of provin
that the support of predatory wealt
has not been secured for the Taft can
didacy at the sacrifice Of the pollcie
which the progressive wing of the re
publican party has been led to believ

This emanation Is given publicity be
cause 1t reflects shade Of polltica
opinion, and because in substance. an
porently, II will be the argument use
against Secretary Taft at Chicago.

IMPEACH JUDICIARY
President Assaulted by Manu-
facturers for Utterances
on Injunction.
LABOR LEGISLATION BAD
In Fifteen Years Only One Injunction
Has Been Modified by SUI
prcmc Court.

New York, May 2O.-Presldent Roose-
welt was assailed by speaker at to-
days session of the National Associa-
ton Of Manufacturers for his utter
ances about the improper use OF injunc-
tons. The speakers, James \. Emery,
general counsel for the national coun-
ell for Industrial defense, said the pres
ident had impeached the whole ju-
dietary of the United states without
giving facts upon which to impeach
one judge For four or five years,
sadi he, there has been a general at
tempt to push this labor legislation, as
inimical as It Ia. For three years past
has been stated and reiterated in ex
ecutive messages that the right of In
Junction has been misused against la
bor and that there has been wide abuse
of the Injunction. Now let us look Into
this and find ont II II Is true. How
many injunctons, for instance, have
there been issued by courts In the last
Eve years. There have been is
sued only 32S injunctons and
courts in the last five years. There have
been issued only S2S lnjunctions and
but 20 of them in labor disputes. That
Is the truth,
Never before has the judiciary of a
country been attacked without facts to
back II up. Now those who attack the
iudclary--how many injunctions do
they complain of in fifteen years? Just
eighteen.
In all these eighteen cases only one
injunction has been modified by the
L. s. supreme court. In seventeen
cases then, they have either not APP
pealed or have been defeated. That
Is the record In no other department
of law have there been so few exam
pies of error In law found.

Mae Wood.
MATRIMONIAL LETTER UP
Declared That Acknowledgement OF
Marriage Was Written Above
an Autograph.

New York, May 20, Physically weak
and SO feeble that he had to be practI-
cally carried In and out of the court
room, United states Senator Thomas
G. Plat was at times spirited wit
ness today in his own behalf In Mae
C. Woods suit for absolute divorce
from him. His denial of all the charges
brought by Miss wood was emphatic
and when prodded too hard on occa-
slons by the plaintiffs counsel the
aged senator proved himself capable
of vigorous response.
Miss Wood did not attend either Of
the sessions today. The presentation
of the case for the defense. aside from
Senator Platt's own testimony, was
marked by sharp attack on the au-
thenticlty of the certificate of marriage
which Miss Wood had offered to sup
port her contention of a matrimonial
contract with the senator. This was
followed by an effort to show that a
letter in which Senator Platt is al
legged to have admitted his marriage Ia
Miss Wood was subsequently written
over his signature on blank sheet of
paper TO which he had affixed his auto
garph on requests Of two women appli-
cants for II IN 1906.

mony categorically denied that he had
ever married or promised to marry the
plaintiff, repudiated the signature pur-

Olive Sandwfches.-Tiny ovals of
thin bread spread with butter, then

Stuffed olives have the stones re.

savory butter, such as lemon butter,
