paons contained in general political
interview with Representative 'W:.@$
Ham nond,' * minnesota s Democratic
member Of the house, as, published, in
Decentralization Post Post: Mr. .Ha Hammond
spoke of the opportunity confronting
his party. and said: s. 80. s>~3~:, 49, =
I'VE ought to- improve that oppor-
tunity. " 1t is up to the Democratic
party to enact legislation that people
want and to quit playing politics. If
he Democrats really endeavor to en-
pot proper legislation, they will gain
Increased support in 1912 and elect a
president. If, on the other hand; they
continue to play politics and think
chiefly of harassing the Republicans,
they will not have the confidence OF
the people and cannot hope for vic
tory. AS to presidential candidates,
the three most talked about out my
way are Harmon of Ohio: >Gaynor' of
New York and Wilson of New Jersey.
10 my mind Gaynor seems the strong
est man, but l must admit it looks
very n1t,ch as'if Harmon will be notni-
nated.' "'
why do yea announce Gaynor as
the STRONGEST" was asked 2of Mr..
Hammond, and he was careful in
measuring his words as he~replied:
because there remains in the
Democratic party very considerable
Bryan sentiment. Many Democrats
still Trust 9and ad1ffre' him: 7Asstinifng
that Bryan will not ask the' noIhfna-
ton again, these -admirers. $so5uld' turn

In speaking.DfH the situation in Min
nesota, Mr.. Hammond said j
minnesota is very much entitled
to be considered a. rock-ribped Repub,
lican state The Republicans, elected
the governor by 10000, the entire
state ticket and legislature over
whelsnfng~ Republican. This means
happens-atns have enough Republican
happens to have enought Republican
members pledged to him and, in ;addi~
ton, it is safe to. predict that 60. per
cent Of the Democrats Of the legisla-
ture WOULD %duiokfy cast their votes
for Ciapp t::Enere--was any danger of
his defeat. ybecause, of Republican de-
sertiop.: What is more, many Demo-
Gratis in the assembly announce. that
they will cast their votes for Clapp
anyhow unless there is a Democratic
caucus nominee "'@
1T might Be- added that many Dem.
ocrats are. pledged - to him and will
tr:. to prevent. any; caucus OF their
party; The contention of these; Demo
Gratis is that Clapp; is a progressive
Republican and is preferred by pro
sressive Democrats to any stand pat
or conservative Republican leader who
might aspire to senatorial honors.
Republicans in Misunderstanding zeal
progressives, who favor legislation of
liberal sort, which is opposed by
the old organization and who are also
quick to condemn the Republican par
ty when: they think it in the wrong:
Then there: is. a: second progressive
element in the Minnesota Republican
following which is ever: alert to follow
any new and catchy political proposi,.

Bent1ment.Without examination. They
are for measures tidhey know little
about and they do not care to- give:
the time for study OF course, :, they
make much noise and control some
votes. Then there is, a third class OF
progressives, VINO oppose with violent
clamor everything the Republican par;
