WHAT DOES 1T SHOW?

Have you stopped to think what the recent pr
mary election in North Dakota means ms was
the State in which LaFoette was such a great WIN
ner over both Roosevelt and Taft, the latter getting
but corporals guard OF votes. l-aFolette and
Roosevelt are supposed to represent the same ideas
OF progressiveness. Now, suppose that TAFT re-
ceives the nomination, is there any way that you
can figure how he can carry the State OF North
Dakota against such a Democratic candidate as
Wilson or Clark who represent the progressive
Democracy? There will be instances of this kind
in many other Western and Northern States and on
the Pacific coast 1t will mean that II Taft is nom
mated that the Republican party will have harder
row to hoe to election than ever before. 1t will
mean that he will certainly lose the naturally Re-
publican States where Roosevelt would certainly
pick them up. And from all appearances it would
seem that Taft is going 70 be the next Republican
nominee
