ROANOKE, Va, March 22.-That

NINTH HOUR SWITCH
TO Gov, MISTAKE

CHICAGO, june 1O.-When
the national republican eonven-
ton resumed its session this
morning the Roosevelt forces
were fighting in the last ditch.
OutgeneraIed all along the II me In
the opening session, their leaders
faltering when a revolutionary
program was actually faced, the
progressiyes failed to present the
united front they had counted on.
Feud Revealed.
The ninth hour switch from
Borah to McGovern proved an err
ror in judgment and instead of
whipping the LaFollette men into
line with McGovern, they had
brought home to the convention
the bitter feud between the. Wis
consin senator and the Oyster Bay
candidate.
Before Chairman Roots gavel
fell today calling the session to
order, an attempt had been made
to get the Roosevelt men solidly
together again.
Prior to the assembling of the
convention today the bolt outlook
was very feeble, some of the pro-
gressive leaders even holding that
when the progressives put Nc
Govern in the field against Root
and voted for him, they became
morally bound, as party men, to
abide by the result.
While the election of Senator
Root is conceded to have been a

Taft victory and concededly
strengthens the conservative
posts as to the presidential nom
ination 1t is not by any means
thought to have settled the ques-
ton of Taft's ultimate success.
An interesting overnight de-
velopment was the clark horse
talk for Elihu Root among the
conservatives. Roots speech as
temporary chairman was the eff
fort of his life and those who are
close to him are saying today that
while he is loyal to President Taft
he realizes that the latter's nom-
nation is at least d fficult prop
osition and that when he made
his speech he was inspired by the
though that his own nomination
might be won by It.
Yesterdays collapse Of the
Roosevelt plan of battle came a
few minutes before the conven-
tion was called to order-due
largely to absence from the floor
of the commander-in-chief of the
progressives.
The Taft organization was COM
plete In every detail. Every
movement of the Roosevelt forces
was anticipated-even to a storm
ing of the stage by protesting
Roosevelt followers. The aisles
were manned by uniformed po-
licemen and an army of plain
clothes men and secret service Of

and Gaynor so many its useless to
count them up.
Therefore, gentle readers, step
up and meet William Jennings
Bryan. Bryan will be the only
man present, besides Alton b.
Parker, who. has had any consid-
cradle experience in running for
president. And while Clark, VIII
son, Harmon, Underwood and
Gaynor are at home with their
ears to long-distance receivers,
William will be right down among
the delegates perspiring and vot-
ing with them.
And they say Bryan is primed
for another one of those Gross
of gold, crown of thorns" things,
only brought strictly down to
date. Bryan may be a little
rusty on political orations be-
cause there have been four or five
days in the last two years that he
didn't crate a syllable, but gen.
orally speaking he knows the
democratic situation about as well
as any other newspaper reporter,
and he won't be restrained by
modesty in discussing 1t. The
best loved democrat in the entire
country, the recognized pioneer
and leader of progressivism and
the personal friend and acquaint-
ance of most of the delegates,
Bryan is to be reckoned with If
the convention is deadlock. And
the chances are 100 to 1 there
won't be any nomination on the
first few ballots.

CHICAGO, June 10. - That

uncompromising Taft leaders just
before the convention resumed

welt demand put forth through
Governor Hadley of Missouri that

clared they had against this prop

FOR Senator Root yesterday. And
they will welcome walkout by
the Roosevelt field force because,

issues. They also say such an
action would not be countenanced
VI the republicans of the nation.
|. Barnes Talks.
= The Roosevelt men have, help
ed organize this convention, said
William Barnes, jr., today.
Other Taft leaders took the
same view. They stated that the
regular republican convention
came into being with the election
of Senator Root as temporary
chairman.
By mandamus proceedings
brought in every state, the anti
Roosevelt men will, If necessary
they say, force the recognition of
their ticket as the regular repub-
lican ticket and they will, they
say, prevent the recognized
Roosevelt electors in such states
as Missouri, Pennsylvania and
West Virginia voting for anyone
but the candidate bearing the
trademark of republicanism.
. The legal experts of the Taft
forces spent nearly all night ex-
amining the law and presidents
affecting such condition. And
they have agreed that the pro-
gressives cannot be made to stick
legally.
Taft Willing to Withdraw, Say
Friends.
President Taft, some of his
friends believe, would now be
willing to withdraw as candi-
date If assured that the Roosevelt
men have been defeated.
If the Roosevelt forces draw
out the delegates remaining In
the regular convention will have
no alternative but to name the
president for second term.
The crux of the situation,
therefore, rested with the Roose-
Welt men today. The real Taft
leaders quietly but confidently as
serted early today that their OPP
ponents would remain regular.

managers as they entered the
convention hall. This attitude
was taken by Secretary Hilles and
among the Taft men, today they
were an adamant wall against the
Roosevelt forces.
