they are as loyal and patriotic as any

Mr.. Lyons said the only public state

was wired to a Chicago paper two or
three weeks ago, which paper asked,
since President Roosevelt is definitely out

some of them enthusiastic, but nothing
had occurred to indicate who would get
the vote of the delegation when elected.
