WINNING OF THE WEST"
(Sioux City Journal.)

Following a conference of western
managers at Colorado Springs and a
similar conference of managers from
the middle west at Chicago a few days
later, in which Frank H. Hitchcock.
the recently selected chairman OF the
republican national committee, sought
harmony and conference In the general
working plan, 1t is now announced
that the republican campaign will be-
gin in the west and at once.
Mr.. Hitchcock understands that the
west is to be the battle-ground Of the
present campaign. While naturally re-
publican, 1T is the fair land" to be
won. AT any rate it has the party
strength that is to be retained by an
effort Democracy is to have almost
the solid south. Republcanism can
claim almost the solid east, but the
west is for the party that gets 1t. Mr..
Hitchcock learned this when he was
making the preliminary campaign for
Taft. 1t was the west which, raised
the question whether as the successor
Of Roosevelt. Taft could be depended
upon to carry out the reform policies
of the president The people of the

west were first to sound the accusa-
ton of do nothingism" against the
congress when 1t became evident that
remedial legislation was tabooed under
the direction of Speaker Cannon and
his eastern allies.
The west was prosperous when the
panic struck the country last fall and
is prosperous yet 1t has a suspicion
that the panic was a manufactured
product of eastern vintage and as II
refused to imbibe the ''fizz" and go on
a protracted spree under the invitation
of the east. it is still much inclined tn
issue a declaration Of independence
that shall apply both now and in the
future. The west as a whole regards
the presidential ticket as of eastern
origin, and considers republican sue
cess as having possible tendency to
encourage the reactionaries OF the
Cannon type. This is not saying that
the west is in revolt, either against
the east or against the ticket. 1t ap-
proves Taft and hesitates about con-
demning Sherman, while 1t claims the
prerogative of approving the platform
in part and of criticising 1t in any
aspect wherein it fails to express the
purposes of the administration as af-
fecting financial legislation and direct
government.
1t is fortunate for the party that
Mr. Hitchcock recognizes this condi-
tion of thought and purpose which ex-
lists and is not slow in expressing 1t
self. Mr.. Hitchcock is fortunate in
that he early recognizes that the west
is the battle ground of the present
