DIVERGENT VIEWS.

DIVERGENT VIEWS.
The fact that Mr.. Roosevelt has
made up his mind to be present during
the convention and during the final sit
ting of the national committee is va
riously regarded. Supporters of the
President declare that this action on
the part of presidential candidate is
the most undignified of the many things
he has been guilty of during the past
sixty days. They declare that he will
be impotent at the convention to pre-
vent his defeat and that his coming is
to be taken as an indication that he is
doomed to be beaten and he knows it,
but desires to be on hand to make his
bolt more dramatic.
Mr.. Roosevelt's supporters, on the
other hand, declare that he is speeding
towards Chicago at their request, in
order that they may be able to consult
him at first hand during the strenuous
times before them. They declare that
they have found it most inconvenient
to have to carry on the necessary con-
the long distance telephone lines.
TAFT STILL WINS.
Yesterday, fourteen of the protests
filed by the Roosevelters were heard
and decided, all against the protestants.
These included the protests against the
seating of eight Tennessee delegates,
two from South Carolina and two from
Oklahoma. The hearing of the latter
was accompanied by the first open vio-
lence of the session, a fist fight taking
place between United States Marshal
Grant Victor, one of the Taft oklaho-
mans, and L. g. Dieny and Patrick
Dore, the two unseated Roosevelters.
Altogether, out of the two hundred
and fifty-six protests filed, the Tafters
have won one hundred and seventy
three and the Roosevelters thirteen,
leaving seventy contests yet to be de-
cided. Of these, forty are from Texas,
where two complete rival delegations
are after convention seats. A part OF
the hearing over these has been heard
and it will be resumed the first thing
this morning.
In addition to deciding the Texan
protests, the national committee will en-
deavor today to hear all the other thir
ty contests and file its decisions, in or
der that Monday may be given over al
together to the preparation of the TEN
porary roll and the other preparation
for the opening of the convention OF
Tuesday.
CALIFoRNIANS SORE.
The Californian delegation is still
indignant at the action of the commit
tee in deciding that the two Taft dele
gates from the fourth congressional dis
trict, who secured district majorities
should have been seated. This indigna
tion is felt in California, evidenced b.
the receipt yesterday of a telegram o
: protest from the Californian state Re
publican committee, denouncing the ma
tional committeeman as political pi
rates.
ROOT ALSO COMING.

Taft men as their candidate as ten

way to make the good apparent as

more to give trim, tidy look to our
