from Minnesota, where Hugh T. Hal
bert, a member of the board of di-
rectors of the Minnesota Progress
i've Republican league" bolted that
organization when 1t endorsed Sena-
tor LaFollette for 'the presidential
nomination. Halbert is out now with
his hatchet, and declares that he will
secure the Minnesota Republican del
egation for former President Roose-
velt
The LaFollette slump has been,
in many respects, one of the most
remarkable recorded in the annals of
political activity. Soon after the Wis
consin man first announced his can
didacy, and opened his campaign,
his following grew rapidly and as
sumed formidable proportions, until
he was recognized as President
Taft's strongest opponent. LaFollette
stock had no sooner reached this po-
sltion, however, than the reaction be-
gan. Republicans who had been
friendly to the Wisconsin man began
to look at the matter squarely, and
found that his record was such as to
indicate that he was really too radi-
cal for the more conservative PRO
gressives" and they began to desert
his cause like rats from a sinking
ship, In desperation they turned to
Roosevelt as the only Moses availa-
BILE and, although so far as the latter
was concerned, his position is no diff
ferent from what it has been. all
along, they saw an opportunity in
supporting him to escape from en-
dorsement of LaFollette. 1t has been
forlorn hope from the first and
this newspaper does not believe for
moment that Roosevelt will accept
the nomination, even if rendered him
and, in the present unsettled condi-
tion of his support it will scarcely
go that far. This leaves President
Taft in practical control of the field
and increases his chances of success
Prominent Polk county Republi-
cans who have heretofore been sup
porters of LaFollette, have said to
The Observer that they believed his
cause was losing ground and as they
have no desire to ally themselves
with a lost cause they are scramb-
ling on to the Taft bandwagon. While
many of them cast eager eyes in the
direction of Oyster Bay they say that
the candidacy of Roosevelt is too
chimerical to be taken seriously.

PUTNAM is PEEVED.

All that Is necessary to arouse the
ire of that calm and dispassionate
newspaper, the Medford Mail-Tribune
is to mention Portland. Say Port
land to Editor Putnam and he will
Immediately throw a dozen fiip-flops,
froth at the mouth and kick over
the traces generally. In the Satur-
day issue of his publication, Editor
Putnam devotes a column of space
belittling Ben Selling of Portland and
his possible candidacy for the United
States senate. He starts the article
with a falsehood in declaring that
Ben Selling has announced himself
as a candidate for the United States
senate" when, in fact, Mr.. Selling
nam uses the fact of Selling's chair
manship of the state Taft committee,
and his announced friendliness for
the Oregon system, as an argument
against his candidacy. careful pc
rusal of the M-T's editorial indicates
that the only real objection to Sell
ling is that he is wealthy, and sells
pants. On the other hand, the Med
ford newspaper appears to believe
that Bourne should be reelected be-
cause he "favOrs the government
road to Crater Lake" at least that
is the only instance mentioned.
The Observer is pleased indeed that
somebody has at last pointed out
something that Jonathan has really
done for the state, even If the road
to Crater Lake will prove a lasting
benefit to Medford and its boomers.
The article contains no real argu-
ment against Selling, or in favor of
Bourne. but it serves to show the
prejudice that exists in the mind of
the editor against Oregon's metropo-
lis. It is possible, however, that COM
petent men may be found in Portland
and the simple fact that they reside
there should be no detriment to their
political ambitions nor overshadow
the ability they possess. With more
than One-third of the entire popula-
tion OF the state. Multnomah county
is entitled to some consideration. ev-
en- il Jonathan is in favor Of the
Crater Lake road" promoted to ben
eft MedfOrd boomers.

latter the united support of the Mis-
souri, delegation and greatly enhances
his chances for nomination at the
Baltimore convention. In the with
drawal of Folk is seen the fine hand
of William j. Bryan, for Folk accept
ed the suggestion made by Bryan,
that the Missouri situation as be-
tween Folk and Clark, be left with
the delegation selected, and, in order
to prevent a divided delegation, both
Folk and CLARK were to agree that
the one who developed the most
strength in the delegation was to
have the united support of Missouri
Democracy. In making his public
statement, former Governor Folk ad-
mits that Clark's presence at Wash
ington and the prominent place he
occupies in national politics will un-
doubtedly result in winning the honor.
