STAND PATTERS

BY United Press Wire.

Washington. Jan. 25.-A restraint
from comment for publication until
they are able to figure out deHnitcly
what IT means to the future of Pres
ident Taft characterized the attitude
today of stand-pat and administration
leaders toward the new progressive
Republican league
Several strong hackers Of Taft said
they were inclined to look upon the
league as movement designed pri-
marily to oppose Tafts nomination
next year, but they were disposed TO
withhold judgment on account of the
assertion by the organizers of the lea
que that It had no definite purpose
affecting the personal fortunes of any
man.
The new league has been seriously
talked over by the cabinet.
That 1t is powerful element in the
rapidly developing political situation.
is admitted on all sides Few, outside
its members, are willing to accept
unreservedly, the statement that it is
not designed to affect the political
fortunes of any man or group of men.
The announcement has set all the
political sharps figuring and
the answers are so confusing that
there is no concensus of opinion.
The members of the league were
greatly encouraged today over reports
of its reception in all parts of the
country. They were content with their
announcement and declared that they
were out purely for fight for the es-
tablishmcnt of popular government
through the Republican party.
Many persons here look upon the
league as an Organization formed to
nominate senator La Toilette for the
presidency ana predict open warfare
between the progressves with La Fol
lette, against the conservatives with
Taft. for control of the Republican
party, IT is suggested that Senator
Cummins, avowed insurgent, who,
however, has declared for party reg
ularity," is being figured on as pos
sible compromise candidate"

voice said:
"Thcy ask you to pity her for her

"And she knows" he cried that
