lowed TO vote. and as the Roosevelt
men sgure they would have delegates
enough TO control the convention and
seat their own men Under ordinary
procedure contests are taken up state
by state on the report Of the creden-
tials committee which is not received
until the second day OF the convention
On vote state by state the delegates
seated on the temporary roll in all the
states except that which is being voted
on are allowed to cast their ballots
This gives q decided advantage to the
side whose contested delegates have
been seated
The Roosevelt forces objected to this
very procedure in certain state CON
ventions. notably that in Indiana. as
sorting that 1t virtually gave the con
tested men who were seated the right
to vote on their own contests. 1t has
formed the basis for one Of their
charges of thieyery
The second advantage this move will
give the Roosevelt men win be the ear
~ line on the exact strength Of the op-
posing forces
According 10 the Taft men, the
Roosevelt faction plans a bolt. If the
first fight goes against them, they will
start the fight at once to nominate
Roosevelt for president Some Roose-
welt delegate, probably Herbert S. Had
ley, governor of Missouri. and the only
Roosevelt chief who won a real victory
in the fight before the national commit
tee, will move that the convention pro-
coed at once with nomination. This. as
the Taft men view the case. will be
equivalent to an attempt to organize "a
Roosevelt convention In the Coliseum
at the same time that the regular con
yention Is under way Should 1t be
done and the Taft men say fatty that it
will, while the Roosevelt men utter no
denial. confusion that will reach the
