Chicago, June 9.-The republican

to hear the conclusion of the warmest
and most bitterly contested delegate
fights yet brought before 1.-THE case
from Louisiana. With the battle over
this state came the crisis of the al
lies" fight on Taft. Long before the
report was ready, even the Anti-Taft
men predicted another victory for the
Ohioan. This was because the secre-
tary of war and his managers refused
to compromise any Of the contests.
The Louisiana contests involved the
delegate s-at-large and seven districts.
A Taft victory meant another big gain
for him
The Anti-Taft men fought for two
hours Monday afternoon, but the com
mittee suddenly adjourned when it
was learned that an attempt was be-
ing made to compromise by seating
half and half This division plan is
known to be directly opposite to the
position of Ex-Governor Yarmouth of
Louisiana.
II would not stand for any such
compromise as that" he said
"Compromise Nothing."
Orders were received today by the
Taft managers in Chicago from Secre
tary Taft to compromise nothing. but
to fight for the seating of every Taft
delegate in the convention in every
contest yet to be heard by the national

Frank H, Hitchcock spokesman for

compromise with the "allies" in fear
that the south he lost TO his candidate.
The compromise move was made
while battle with Louisiana contes-
tants was under way. before the nat
ional committee.
My hope is that we can get them
together" Hitchcock said I'VE don't
want any fight in the South. Its to
the best interests of the party that
every one leave the convention with
a spirit of harmony reigning"
In direct contrast with this move of
Hitchcock. was the statement Of ex-
Governor II. c. Yarmouth. the Taft
leader in Louisiana. We will not
take anything except everything" he
declared. Last year we got half a vote
and there has been anarchy in the
state ever since"

disagreed on this very matter Noreys

was against it. Mr.. Taft held with
Hitchcock.
Following the dispute in the Taft
camp. came the report that Hitchcock
had been supplanted as assistant sec

thereby ousted from the sittings. Sec
rotary Elmer Dover of the committee,
denied the report. Mr. Hitchcock has
not been ousted." he said. He can
go into the committee room any time
he wishes, No one has been appoint

The Taft people also denied the
story From other sources it was learn

he should leave the committee room

THE HOBsON MANIA.

The Portland Journal, which is
vigorously supporting Bryan for the
presidency, does not altogether agree
with HobsoD, who is also working for
Bryan's election, or at least did not
before the campaign opened. From
their issue Of July 10th, we quote the
following to all of which we say
amen
Representative Hobson is no doubt
a sincere patriot, but he has gone
fairly daft over the proposition that
we will and must and shall have
great war soon with Japan. and that
unless we increase our navy very
greatly .and rapidly we will be most
thoroughly and ignominiously whip.
ped. Mr.. Hobson's point of view is
that of naval officer, which he was
for years and the importance of which
position he magnifies or course
there must be war to Justify the exist.
ence of a great navy and a great many
naval officers. Unless war can be
scared up once in awhile, their occu-
patton would dwindle in importance
and interest. We need great navy
because we are to have great war, is
Hobson's way of putting it, but what
is really In the mind of him is the
need of big war 80 as to justify and
exploit a great navy.
Japan Is In no condition to 20 to war,
even with third rate power, nor will
be for years to come, for lack Of
money. Her resources are limited and
her power of borrowing is about ex.
hausted. For score of years, at least,
Japan will have her hands foil with
Korea, and Manchuris, and will have
to keep her eyes on Russia and China.
Japan would no more afford to go to
war with the United States than Hol-
land could with Germany. Besides
there is and will not be anv occasion
for war. Japan had to fight Russia
for her very physical existence but
she ism Z going TO war with any great
nation on any slight pretexts. Hob.
son has mania, aud the expression
of IL Is becoming tiresome.
