made by William 2. Flynn, Of Pitts
burg, to stampede the convention for
Roosevelt.
1t is generally admitted among the
Taft men today that If 1t develops that
the presidents nomination is impos-
sible, Senator Elihu Root will be put
forward as a candidate Barnes as
serts that Roots election as tempor-
airy chairman of the convention is GER
tain. His friends say that Roots open
ing speech as temporary chairman will
be the supreme effort Of his life. He
will try to force harmony between the
Roosevelt and Taft factions, SO far as
the platform is concerned. It is re-
ported he plans to urge a concillation
policy in every way. Many of the
Taft men are hopeful that Roots har-
mony keynote will meet with an in
slant response from the convention,
with the result that Root himself will
be nominated for president
All the Root talk, however, is ridi-
culed by the Roosevelt men, who in
slst that Governor Herbert s. Hadley,
of Missouri, will be temporary chair
man of the convention. Along this
line Senator Dixon, of Montana, Roose
velt's campaign manager, said:
1--WE will elect Governor Hadley
chairman, whether he is recognized by
the national committee or not. A lot
of people seem to think that the ac-
tion of the national committee settles
Everything. Let me tell you 1t won't
settle a dam thing! 1t will simply
open the way for the finest fight in the
histcry of American politics, and when
the smoke clears away, you will find
the progressives in control, Roosevelt
nominated, and really progressive
platform before the country

Instead of what you have been using
