Third-Term Spectre.
The course of Frank II. Hitchcock
Secretary Taft's manager, in forcing
the national committee to ride rough
shod over contesting delegations at
Chicago last week and this week, has
made many Republicans wonder
whether it would not be wise to drop
Taft and nominate Roosevelt out OF
hand.
This solution of Republican difficult
ties Is as distasteful to the Republican
opposition to Secretary Taft as any
thing which could be imagined, far
more distasteful than the nomination
of Taft. President Roosevelt demon
strated his wondcrfuI capabilities as
politician when he let it be known
three months ago that If the Republ-
cans would not accept Taft. and II
Wall Street and other interests con-
tinned the clamor for Knox or Fair
banks or some other reactionary can
didate, they would have to take him
ms the candidate OF the party. The
third-term spectre has proven the most
powerful argument in favor OF the
nomination Of Secretary Taft so far
ms the bulk of the Republican oppo-
sition to his nomination is concerned.
There is no doubt that this fear had
a very great deal, If not ALL TO do with
Wall Streets surrender and accept
ance of the situation so far as Secre-
tary Tafts candidacy was concerned
"A letter from President Roosevelt at
this time would impress upon the Chi
cago convention the fact that he would
not accept another nomination, and
at the same time would cause the way
ering delegates and the country to ac-
cept SecretaryttTaft as the candidate

him to make no change in the mcth-

President Roosevelt does not conceal
his satisfaction over the work being
