The Roosevelt attitude on the re-
suits of the deliberatjon of the Ma
tional Committee on the contests is
disgusting to the a, erage fair.minded
man, as is the recent action of the Ne
braska delegation in demanding the
resignation of Victor Rosewater, Me-
braska's national committeeman, on
account of his failure to respect their
wishes or views in the deliberations of
the committee. If the wishes or views
of Nebraska on who should be the
nominee cf the republican party are to
determine the merits of the contests
on who are properly chosen as dele
gates to represent the wishes and
views of the other states then of course
the demand for Rosewater's resigna-
tion is proper. But If the wishes and
views of the states where the contests
come from, and the merits of the con-
test are to govern the action of the
Nebraska delegation is cert ainly man
ifestlv unjust and unfair.

The Tyndall Register offered the fol

used as his text when he spoke in

In this case--keep your eye on the dog.
The afore mentioned article was pro-

Reports from Chicago Indicate that

Reports from Chicago indicate that
the Taft people have control of the re-

Taft's candidate, was elected temp
orary chairman and all of the pre-
liminary man-uvers of the Roosevelt
ties to substitute Roosevelt delegates
in place Of Taft delegates IN the con-
tests determined by the national COM
mittee were overcome by the Taft
men. There seems to be considerable
doubt as to the ability of either Taft

ground.
