Is Vermont Insurgent?

A Washington dispatch to the Bos-
ton Transcript says.
"As showing the working of lne
Progressive mind in its political an
alysis of New England, it can be
stated that the Progressiyes believe
they could carry Vermont against
Taft more easily than any other New
England state, with Maine next. The
recent trip of Messrs. Mccormick
and Spreckels to Boston apparently
did not advance the movement very
far in the Bay State, but it is still
asserted at the headquarters here
that an Office will be opened in New
England in due time, probably in
Boston and possibly in Concord, N,
H., as being nearer the agricultural
vote. Secretary Houser Of the Re-
publican Progressive Campaign com
mittee firmly believes that 95 out OF
every 100 OF all the farmers of the
country would vote against Taft If
they were given the chance and it is
this belief which impels his confd
ence that rockribbed Vermont would
turn against the president II she
were given the opportunity. The
Progressiyes admit their helplessness
under the old system of electing del.
egates to the Republican National
convention but are confident they
would sweep the country If presi-
Dental primary should be held in
every state"
Then the Progressive cause must
be very weak in New England. All
the Vermont delegation in congress
voted against reciprocity but none OF
them has been found in the anti-Taft
ranks. So far as can be learned they
are strongly in favor of the president
Because good many farmers op
posed reciprocity it does not follow
that they will vote against Taft. Yer
mont is strongly in favor of Taft and
IL is ridiculous to claim that 1t Is not
IL the so-called Progressives doubt
this let them undertake to elect La
Toilette delegates from Vermont. I'm
der our caucus system there Is nc
reason why the Wisconsin mar
should not get the delegates, If ht
has the people with him. 1t is very
very easy to make big claims bu
much harder to get the votes. i

bone and the oil is extracted and the
rest of the carcasses converted into

BIG LEAGUES IN CUBA
lobert's Team viii Play First Game
Next Sunday

~'f~g
Hans Lobert's team of big league
players that is to tour the stand of
Cuba during the winter has sailed
for Havana where the first game will
be played next Sunday. In the main,
the Lobert combination will meet
practically the same mines as played
the Athletics and the Detroit club a
year ago
The team is composed of Magee
and Paskert of the Phillies and Nit
chell of Cincinnati, outfielders; Lu-
derus. Knabe, Walsh and Lobert, in.
fielders; catchers, Cotter and Killifer
and pitchers Shultz, Chalmers and
Stack.
The New York Giants were booked
TO tour Cuba this winter, but there
was some hitch in the arrangements
and it is not likely that the trip will
be made. Lobert has been making
arrangements for the trip for several
weeks and has everybody signed up.
The players have been guaranteed
enough money to cover expenses
give them money to cover expenses
and give them about 5000 in addition.
The Athletics played in Cuba last
winter under practically the same
conditions
A rule passed by the national COM
mission this year prevents any team
winning a worlds championship en-
tering into a series of exhibition
games, but there is no rule against
other teams being formed to make
the tour. Magee made a trip to Gu
ba three years ago with one of the
teams organized in the American
league
