In those cases where the Repub-
Iican voters have had "A fair chance
to express their convictions they have
repudiated Mr. Taft so completely
that he has been able to obtain less
than one eighth OF the delegates. his
popular vote being but one In three
or four and in some cases only one in
nine or ten.
The great majority OF the party
have unequivocally repudiated Mr..
Taft II the wishes OF the Repub-

In the next place it makes it per-
fectly clear that Mr. Root Is pushed
for nomination only with the purpose
to secure the defeat of the principles
for which the progressive Repub-
licans stand, the principles for when
the people have declared themselves
by overwhelming majoritles In those
states where there have been popu-
lar primaries. Mr.. Roots personality
becomes unimportant In view of Mr.
Barnes's telegram.
There have been direct presIden-
tial preferential primaries in I'LL
nols, Pennsylvania, Massachusetts.
Ohio. New Jersey, North Dakota,
Maryland, California Oregon and
Nebraska. In these states the popu-
lar vote against Mr.. Taft has been
between two and three TO one, and
often over that. and ne has secured
only 3S delegates out OF n total Of 2z4.
In Minnesota, Missouri. Kansas,
Maine. New Hampshire, North Caro-
lima and Washington there were pri-
maries which. while not direct presI-
Dental primaries. still give a rough
approximation Of the total actual
sentiment OF the states. In these
states 1 secured 154 delegates and Mr
Taft secured II, with 3 uninstructed.
