CHICAGO, June 15.--The Taft
contesting delegation from Wash
ington will be seated today by the
republican national committee.
The information was forthcom-
ing from the national committee
men who announced they intend
to decide all or nearly all of the
remaining contests in favor of
President Taft.
Several members of the COM
mittee openly declared that
Roosevelt's only chance was to
secure a few delegates from
Texas districts where the Taft
people were unable to prepare
meritorious contests. The Taft
men of the committee conferred
last night and decided to give Taft
20 of the contested seats from
Virginia, IA from Washington,
two each from the District of Co
lumbia and North Carolina and
probably "a of the 80 from Texas.
This would give Roosevelt but six
of the 6S contests still unheard.
CHICAGO, June 15.-'sDon't
do that, for Gods sake remember
next November" This was the
plea of Committee Capers Of
South Carolina to the republican
national comm ttec, when after
refusing a rolIcalI they seated
Taft delegates I'm the Fourth
Texas district I'm a contest where
both the Roosevelt and Taft dele-
gates claimed regularity.
Previous to this the national
committee today had seated the
eight Taft delegates at large from
Texas, Taft delegates from the
First and Second districts, and
Roosevelt men from the Third
district only.
On vica voce vote the COM
mittee seated Taft delegates from
the Sixth and Seventh Texas dis
tricts.
During the hearing of the con-
test over the Texas delegates at
large, the Taft men admitted that
the Roosevelt organization in
Texas was regular and legal. The
evidence showed that the Roose-
welt faction overwhelmingly con-
trolled the convention. These
Taft committeeman, however, ar
gued that the Texas election laws
were wrong in permitting coun-
ties with only few republicans
to have equal representation with
the large republican counties.

f.. Mills. of Tampa. member of the
State board of health. has drawn up
the bill.
The plan of campaign adopted is
the same as that used in Virginia
last year. where the bird-lovers sue
ceeded in passing their bill. Pet:-
items are circulated in every town
and county and these are submitted
10 the Legislature when the bill is
introduced. Virginia was won last
year, and il is hoped to win FlOrida
this year, and Louisiana next year.
Only six States now are in the lie;
