trade.

country believe:

been betrayed
2. That Roosevelt will 0. X. the Taft record.
That the public interest benefits by the Taft alliance
with Cannon. Aldrich and Wall street.
f. That Balnger has been indicated and Pincho dis
credited
s. That Wickersham has served the public and not his

g. That the insurgents and progressves have been
obsuctionists and will turn in and work for the

Z. That nobody knows about Brother Fenry's
ton with the sugar and his influence in Washington
s. That the good features of the railroad rate law
contributed by the administration and the bad features by
LaFollette and the progresslves.
g. That the tariff revised downward.
TO- That the increased cost of living has been explained
to have nothing to do with the tariff or the trusts.
II. That a real investigation is to be made by real

To the old seasoned politician the game is rather hard
To Taft it does not seem much Ills life has
been sort of happy fairy tale. Some political godmoter

LEGISLATURE SITUATION

That former President Roosevelt will lend moral sup
port to Miles Pondexter in his fight for the senate the
deduction reached from reading the exclusive dispatch
to The Press today, from its famous Washington
spondent, Gibson Gardner Roosevelt could not let his
determination be made known in many words, but the
inference is plain enough.
Pondexter today the leading candidate for the senate
seat now occupied by Piles 1t looks though he would
win in the primaries.
At the same time, it looks as though the progressive
candidates real fight will be before the legislature Many
OF his friends believe that movement is foot the
west side to carry the senatorial contest into the legsa
ture II the reactonaries beaten at the primaries This
may mean another carnival of bribery at Olympia 1t
mean the overthrow of the peoples will expressed at
the polls IN the same manner in which the peoples inter
judges lifted out of the primaries and thrown into
convention.
The standpatters may attempt to put through this deal
but they will surely encounter storm of terrific oppos
ton before the fight ended 1t is up to the people

ature to steer clear of any such work.
