of the territory, but had received in
disputable assurances that he will have
good margin over the vote cast for
Mr.. Scates.
While talking with the reporter the
congressman spoke briefly of the sit
uation throughout the country and said
that the election of Mr.. Bryan would
undoubtedly prove a great blow to the
business interests, which would prac-
tically suspend operations for some
time. Should there be. Democratic
House elected in November, the Sem
ate would remain Republican, but he
thought that so far as the other House
was concerned there would be reaction
two years hence and Congress would
again be Republican.
In speaking of Mondays election, John
Clark Scates. the Democratic candidate
for representative to congress from tn=,
first district said last evening:
There is SO much interest among those
who usually vote the Democratic ticket
that it is an utter impossibi!ity for any
living man to predict the outcome of the
balloting in the first congressional dis

party will make gains in every town in

ANTI-HUGHES MEN

which will assemble here in ConVen-

be Il cut-and-dried affair, was dis
PEELED by the development today of a
situation which may provoke "a bitter

Mr.. Root arrived this afternoon. He is
to act as both temporary and perna-

Soon after the arrival OF Mr. Root.

alone to Mr.. Roots room and was in

Meeting his name with the nomination

forces At first he declined to say q
"Wcll, you know / am a delegate to

all for Hughes" Then he and Chair
man Woodruff went away together to
dinner.
Beyond doubt the anti-Hughes

could direct the inquirer to no one

was said that unless nomination was
effected on the first ballot, the con-

that then the real work Of putting
