"OANDELIONS" FOR COL 0NEL
Their Return Indicates Roosevelt
Gain, Says Duell.

Judge charles H. Duell. chairman of the
Roosevelt city committee. took his pen In
hand again yesterday TO make more pre-
dic,ions Ina regard to the nomination OF
Theodore Roosevelt on tina first ballot and,
incidentally. to take a rap at the speech
made by Chairman Barnes Of the Rcpuo-
lican state Committee At tn" dinner given
10 him ~ the Republican club.
Judge Du-li declared that the talk Of a
third Candidate was foolish. that President
Taft could not deliver more than two
thirds Of his delegates to q third candidate
and without all Of them no third candidate
could be nominated.
Still more absurd. he went ON. is the
talk ~ the ultra conservatives 81 reading
colonel Roosevelt and hi. supporters out
OF the Republican party, Could this be
done. the Republican party I'm the nation
would be Inf the same plight MS that party
IL to-day in Louisiana a Republican cllb
that permits such vaporings 10 be promul-
gated within it's doors ceases to be a true
representative Of the party
Judge Dueli declared that Colonel Roose-
welt had added l26 delegates To his credit
this week while President Taft had added
twenty six and lost four.
Little wonder that hia friends are elated
and his advcrsaries take refuge in the last
ditch" said the Judge Two 'dandelOn'
conventions have this week rcconvened,
reconsidercd their previous Taft instruc-
tions and now instruct for Colonel Roose-
Welt II makes little difference To the
Southern delegates Who Is nominated.
They are more concerned In having Il can
didate nominated who can be elected. Mr.
Roosevelt Will have a majority of uncon-
tested delegates in the convention. Ny
previous prediction that he will receive at
least Sc? delegates on the first ballot still
holds good
