for Roosevelt. 1t Is impossible to con-
ceive OF such a proposition. The Roose-
welt wing of the Republican party was
anti-Taft and the Taft wing was anti
Roosevelt. Had either OF these candi-
dates opposed Wilson on the Republi-
can ticket Wilson would have got the
bulk OF the hostile vot,j within the dis
organized Republican party.
In California the high-minded Bull
NIoosers whose clarion cries for the
purity of the ballot resounded above the
din of battle, outgeneralled the Repub-
Means by a smooth trick and fxed 1t so
that the names OF the Republican elect
OTIS were not allowed on the official bal
lot. In other words, William Howard
Taft. the official nominee OF the Repub-
lican party, was not candidate in Cali
fornia except as his supporters wrote
in the names OF the Republican electors,
THE fght in California, therefore,
was clear cut between Wilson and
Roosevelt. California Is a Republican
