concerted step toward suppressing

terday to attend the wedding of his
niece.
I'VE do not notice the change so
much in Washington where the insur-

assertions that they are standing by
the President, but from my observa-
ton on my recent western trip, |
am convinced that the movement is
on the wane.
Il rather expected to find in Wis
consin a predominant feeling of in
surgency because most of the Repub-
lican representatives from Wisconsin
in Congress have been prominent in
that movement. To my surprise,
found substantially no such sentiment
'I have twice before within a few
weeks been in the middle west and
have found the sentiment to be de
cidedly in favor of a continuance OF
the protective policy. The outcome in
Iowa, where the primaries were held
Tuesday, and where the regular were
succceeful in every district in the
state where there was contest, save
one-successful in choosing state
committee the majority of whom Were
regulars-were strongly indicative o.
continued belief in Republican poll
cies."
