of the party would be particularly strong
if his enemies in Congress should force an
adjournment without passing these bills.
Big Stick Looming Up.
The President has simply brought out
the big stick, and is swinging 1t dan
gerously near the political scalps of
senators and representatives whose dis
tricts and states are not overwhelming
ly republican.
Among some of the republican senators
whose reelection depends upon the cleo
ton next fall are: Ankeny, Washington;
Brandegee, Connecticut; Dillingham;, Yer

Gallinger, New Hampshire; Hansbrough
North Dakota; Heminway. Indiana; Hey
burn, Idaho; Hopkins, illinois, Kittredge,
South Dakota; Long, Kansas; Penrose,
Pennsylvania; Perkins, California; Platt,
New York; Smoot, Utah, and Stephenson,

While many Of these are supporting
the President Loyalty and desire to force
bills he is advocating to passage, they
are held up by others who have been
most active recently in holding up tho
nominations sent to the Senate by the
President
One direct effect OF the message was
that IL oversha dowed entirely the speech
of Governor Hughes in New York, de-
clarng his position on national issues.
Little or no attention was given to Gov
ernor Hughes speech.
Unusual Scene.
The scene at the White House to-
day was unusual. Democratic members

ator Kean of New Jersey was the one
republican who admitted that he had not
referred to the message. He said he had

was proper to extend congratulations to
any person until he knew why he was
doing SO.

Representative Bourke Cochran, DEM
ocrat of New York. said Il was de-
lighted with the message and told the
President so. 1t was definite. 1t was
direct and was devoid of generalities
It was unlike the speech of Governor
Hughes, especially in the latter's treat
ment of the tariff question"
