That Cannon FIGHT

Congressman Frank Plumley in
forms us that his vote was wrongly

entatives March 49, Instead OF vot-
ing against II after favoring the sub
stitute he in fact voted with the IN

the fight he stood with the regulars
I'm their support of Speaker Cannon.
We are glad that the dictates OF
MIR. Plumley's conscience finally over
came his inherent regularity, al.
though we regret that the still small
voice was not heard by the represen-
tative OF this district earlier in the
battle for independence. For Mr..
| Plumley must know how the people
of Vermont feel toward Cannonlsm;
he must be aware that the majority
OF his constituents are not IN sym
patty with the political principles ty-
piled by Speaker Cannon and are
anxious to see the machinery OF the
national house OF representatives re.
organized In accordance with the
spirit OF the times.
Congressman Foster. happy no
doubt in his new position as chair
man OF the committee on foreign az
fairs, undertakes to explain his
course in voting for Cannonism by
saying that he objected to the Nor
ris resolution because the republi
cans had no voice In the matter and
because as member OF the republi
can congressional campaign commit
tee he had already declared himself
for more liberal rules which were Ia
be brought about later IN the session
by the republicans themselves.
In other words Mr.. Foster, despite
his recent chortllng against Cannon
ism. was opposed to II only for the
sake OF the political capital that
would come through It's overthrow
and because that advantage babe fail

can ranks he elected TO do what h
could to prevent the benehccnl

on his membership In the republican
congressional campaign committee "a

stand by his guns" but he will hav,
n difficult time In explaining to hil
constituents what that has 90 do will

yet to be convinced that Mr.. Fostel

indianapolis.
Washington, April S.-President
Taft has not yet replied to the mum
erous kilograms he has received from
indianapolis asking him to reconsider
his decision not to visit that city on
May 5. The President has been in
formed that other letters and tele-
grams are on their way 10 Washing
ton, and he will not make any answer
until they are all received.
To friends the President has stat
ed that politics had nothing whatever
to do with his decision. He said he
had read Senator Beyeridge's speech
some time ago, in fact before he ac-
cepted the invitation to visit Indian
apolis in the first pace. While there
had been opportunity to read Senator
Beyeridge's speech II was not sub
mitted to him by the Indiana senator,
nor was II subjected for any execu-
tive approval or dlsapproval, and up
to this time the President has made
no comment upon II. II the President
can arrange to postpone engagements
he has made In Washington on May
G, and S, It is more than likely he
will visit indianapolis, and that he al
so will spend the two extra days In
Cincinnati.
