GOOD PROSPECT IN FLORIDA.

To the Editor OF The Tribune.
Sir: The chances for Republican success
I'm Florida have never been better than at
present. Since the campaign in 1886 the
Republican party has had a steady growth,
caused by the Democratic platform. that
proved to be worthless. and the advance
ment the country made under the leader
ship OF Mckinley, Roosevelt and Taft.
The increased votes pOlled By President
Mckinley I'm 1870 showed F1Orida'S appre-
citation OF Republican principles. Mr.
Roosevelt's popularity was not 80 great,
because OF his appointment Of Joe" Lee, a
negro. as collector of internal revenue at
Jacksonville. Fla.
At the primaries last April the Democrats
polled about 5000 votes, which was their
entire strength in the state. while Mr.. Taft
pOllsd 1864 votes at the election In 1903.

OF the Democratic party. to gain only 1000
or 5000 votes to carry the state. With Mr..
Bryan dominating the Democratic party TO
the disgust OF all Flordians, a Presidential
nominee unsatisfactory to most Demo

Ing pending legislation excepting upon
the basis Of treaty rights, and even theh
il would be more usual to await compete
enactment and the consequent aScec'olh-
ment Of the effect of the legislation.
Nevertheless, it is quite possible to MAKE
representations concerning pending IegS-
lation in an entirely inoffensive ana
amicable manner. 1t Is obviously better
TO have laws made right and satisfac-
tory at the beginning than to have them
subjected to contention and dispute after
they have been made, and whatever con-
tributes to that end should be welcome.
Great Britain has, by, virtue Of the Hay
PauncefOte treaty. a legitimate interest
in canal legislation, and that interest
may be expressed, even at this early
stage of the legislation, without any
semblance or suspicion Of undue inter
ference In American domestic affairs.
From the slow rate Of progress which
Congress has thus far made in the mat
ter. and from the prospect Of further de-
Law resulting from disagreement between
the two houses, there can be little dorbt
that there will be ample time for giving
q considerate hearing to the British rep
reservations before the date Of final en-
actment.

A ROOSEVELT MANS PROTEST.

To the Editor OF The Tribune.
Sir: Your dlatribes and invectives daily
hurled at Colonel Theodore Roosevelt and
the National Progressive party are neither
ingenious in conception nor logical In con-
clusion and are likely to prove boomerangs
TO the projectors and an injury to the paper
that publishes them. You know, and every
citizen OF the Republic knows. that the re-
cent proceedings at Chicago were crooked
that the nomination OF Taft was not hon
estly acquired. and that your apologies for
the mlschievous irregularities OF the bosses
are disingenuous and misleading.
The caricatures and innuendoes set forth
In the editorial entitled "A Progressive"
In to-day's Tribune against new recruit
from the Democratic fold to the new party

A HIDEOUS PHENOMENON

The worst feature, In a broad view OF
the case, Of the recent tragedy near Gro
tona Park is not the piteOus fate Of Julia
ConnOrs nor yet the fiendish brutality OF
her slayer, but rather the precocious
moral perversity Of Florence Molz. This
young child promptly came forward with
a volunteer story Of the crime, alleging
that she had witnessed the beginning OF
1t and had herself narrowly escaped be-
ing also victim, giving a circumstantial
and astounding tale of vicious and crimi-
nal practices and positively identifying
the alleged criminal. Later she confessed
that every word had been sheer fabrica-
ton, and the net results were that an
innocent man was brought under susri-
cion, that the police were hampered and
delayed and that the guilty man was
aided to escape.
This is, we say, the worst feature Of
the case. for it shows what danger there

DOUBLE DEALERS.

The refusal of the Republican state
Convention in Iowa to indOrse the ma
tional ticket and platform was a shame
less exhibition of bad faith and cow
ardlce: The Republicans of Iowa sent
twenty-six delegates TO the Chicago con-
ventiOn and sixteen Of them voted for
President Taft's denomination. Through
its representatives, fairly chosen, the
Republican party in Iowa contributed
to frame the national platform and
select the national ticket, and the state
organization was bound In honor to ac-
cept a result which IT had itself labored
to bring about.
Yet so fearful were the candidates for
Congress and the state offices, recently
nominated at a primary, of exciting the
hostility Of Republicans about to
enter new third party that they IN
fuenced the state convention TO repu'
date manifest obligation and to
put the organization in the attitude
Of washing its hands of all respOn-
sibility for the fate of the national
ticket The local candidates are eagerly
soliciting the support Of non-RepubIicans
and paying a dishOnorable price for it,
while they are at the same time claim.
ing party regularity nI demanding
assistance from genuine Republicans
Such duplicity is contemplate and
those who practise 1t are entitled TO no
respect from men who believe that
some degree Of fair dealing and moral
courage is essential, even in politics.
1t is refreshing to see a Progressive
Republican newspaper Of the status OF
1.-The Des Moines Register and Leader
denOunce such stiffness both as bad
strategy and bad morals. THE Register
and Leader was for Cummins and
against Taft in the pre-corventiOn can
vass, but il sees clearly that the Repub-
lican organization In Iowa, having free
ly participated in the Presidents re-
nomination, cannot now with any self
respect turn its back on him and sell
him out for local advantage 1t said
the other day:
There is an easy assumption on the
part Of many that the Republican party
organization can be sloughed off in q
state like Iowa much as an old coat can
be taken off and hung on peg. But those
who have had any experience with
breaking up the established relations of
politics will know that there will be a
degree Of heat generated before the old
coat is torn off the shoulders Of Repub-
licanism that will make the natural
temperature Of the dog days seem mild
indeed. If we are TO form a new
party there is only one way, and that
is TO make it new. Let us not deceive
ourselves that we can be new party as
to one office and old party as TO the
other. Not four weeks Of the actual
campaign Will have passed until the
folly Of that assumption will have been
proved to the satisfaction Of everybody.
The state convention has now adopted
the policy Of being new party as to one
office and old party as to others. But
we are confident that Iowa will not
stand for such crooked dealing. It
ought to be easy for the real Repub-
leans in the state to call the double
dealers to account and make them say
definitely whether they are operating in
side the party or outside
