Now as TO the analysis of the vote or
congress, where II is claimed, the issue
vas made more direct as to indorse-
ment Of the Taft personnel in public
life, there were sharp contests II

dates for congress shows that tbs
stanapatters cast 1906 votes and the
prog-essives 50,755. The progressive
majority was 1o14s. The total repub.

congress was more than half the entire
republican vote east at the primary il

There was. perhaps, no other one
place in the game where there wa.
anything upon which an estimate coul
be made as 70 the relative strength 0
the friends Of Cunolins and DoIlive,
and the adherents Of Cannon and All
