Roosevelt Feeling His Way.
Those who have followed tho pOllt'
lcal conference nt Oyster Bay since
Theodore Rooseyelts return share the
belief that he has been feeling HIS
way cautiously In his attitude toward
the administration and the Insurgents
but today's incidents are considered
the most Important yet developed.
Senator Beveridge is making his fight
for reelection as an insurgcnt. lie
Is opposed by John w. Kern, who ran
with Bryan In the !nst campaign.
In his fight the senator is placing
himself squarely against President
Taft in so far as the tariff law figures
The law which the president has de.

pudiatod the law In the senate Bev.

president entrusted 10 the senator the
conduct OF the two administration
measures at the last session OF CON

aska government bill. And although
the senator worked faithfully With inc
insurgent band In the senate, and had
a hand ia the alteration OF presi.

the administration regularly In the
last session w'hcp The votes were
taken.
