Hard Work for
Committee.

For the next few days the Iabors of
the committee will be doubly hard. The
Louisiana cases are to be followed by
the Michigan contests and then the
Missouri fight is just around the cor
ner Then the troublesome California
contest. where the Taft men are seek
ing the seats OF the Roosevelt dele
gates who have credentials with the
big seal Of the state stamped in one
corner, is yet to be disposed Of The
California case was the regular order
of business for today. but there was lit
tie disposition manifested by members
of the committee to take it up. The
Taft men are willing to let it go over to
the end of the session and even the
Roosevelt men who have been insisting
that it be heard at once are willing to
allow the matter to rest little longer.
The reason is not hard to find Gov
ernor Hiram johnson is speeding
across the continent to be here when
the matter is finally adjusted, provided
it does not come up today.
The tangle that the Louisiana cases
will present is not a new one to the
committee Perhaps no state has fur
nished the members so much practice
in contest hearing The Republican
party there is divided into three fac
tons. The lilly whites as one faction
is known. is headed by Pearl Wight,
national committeeman and stauncn
supporter of Roosevelt He is a fight
ing politician and knows how to pre-
sent his cases.
