Nothing to Bolt With.

There never was a truer word uttered
on a political situation than that bolt
ing is a difficult matter if it becomes
necessary for the leader to carry fol-
lowers into the new camp. Mr.. Roose-
welt was not at all slow in finding this
out, hence his quick "right-about-
face" after the cry had gone forth and
the official statement had been issued
that to bolt was the only thing to do
under the circumstances. If he could
have taken all his delegates with him,
it would have been an easy matter for
him to organize a convention and make
quite a showing in the way of embar-
RAISING the regular faction by a split
But he has found out and it must have
been gall and wormwood to a man of
his towering ambition and lust of power,
that he cannot do so, as a considerable
number of his delegates decline to bolt,
which means that his rump convention
oould not carry with it the moral force
necessary to impress the people.
1t is just as has been predicted in these
columns. Mr.. Roosevelt dare not bolt,
even if he had been able to command all
of his delegates. There is far too much
at stake for the big corporations, the
vested interests, the railroads, and the
world of finance to risk a wide-open
breach in the ranks of the Republican
party. In short, Wall Street will not
let him bolt, and that, we take it, is
the principal reason for Mr.. Perkins
presence in the convention city But
what Roosevelt will do is to wait until
a new party shall be formed, if it is.
While he will not form one, he will ac-
cept the call of such a new party, if it
calls him. That is a thing that neither
Wall Street nor the interests could pre-
vent
How different is this mood from that

How About the Democrats !

Senator O'Gorman speaks truly when
he refers to the great responsibility
Hdevolving upon the Democrats at their
coming Baltimore convention and says
that individual leanings or predictions
must yield to the supreme considera-
ton of naming the man most likely to
gain the favor of the fair-minded, we'll
meaning, patriotic voters.
A good many things seem to favor
the Democrats as they were never
favored before. No matter what the
outcome of the Republican strife at
Chicago, the nominee there, under the
present chaotic and unsettled condi-
tions within that party, has but a poor
chance of being elected in November
if the Democrats succeed in giving the
country a candidate of high character,
of recognized public service, and free
from all entanglements. In doing so
the Democrats may gain votes in the
opposite camp, either from disgruntled
Taft men (if he be defeated) or from
dissatisfied Roosevelt adherents (if he
should be sidetracked by the conven-
tion), from standpatters if a pro-
gressive be nominated, or from pro-
gressives if a standpatter should be
made the Republican standard bearer.
The Democrats really have the chance
of lifetime If they are shrewd and
patriotic enough to grasp it This is
not a time for mere partisan rewards
or vindications, or, least of all, of ex-
periments If they are to profit by ex-
isting conditions they will have to be
led by one whose appeal will be ma
tional in scope and not sectional, and
whose campaign will bring to the party
many thousands who from sheer dis
gust have stayed away from the polls
of late years.
Recent reports that Mr. Bryan is
going to transfer his support to Wood
row Wilson, which are persistent among
the Democratic lawmakers who have
not deserted the Capitol during these
ringing times, appear to have done
much to hearten the friends of the
scholarly candidate. He has about 300
delegates so far, that is. enough to
make it exceedingly difficult to dispose
of him in case his friends should de-
eide to stand by him to the last.
1t is believed generally that Mr..
Bryan recognizes a weakness in the
Missouri candidate and will do nothing
more to advance his interests, and the
Hearst support alone cannot get the
Speaker the coveted nomination.
1t were well for the Republicans to
disabuse themselves of the idea that
Wilson, If nominated at Baltimore, can
be disposed of with a snap of the
finger
The Washington herald., 1912-06-22
Why It Should Be Taft.

Ii cannot be said that what came
pretty near to being crisis at Chicago
has passed altogether, for never before
in the memory of this generation has
there been such confusion at a Ma
tional Convention. Still we would coun-
sci our readers to continue to regard all
rumorS and sensational roorbacks as
flank movements to attract the attention
of the fighting forces and to divert them
from the real and serious business on
hand And yet we judge from certain
indications that the leaders of the so
far triumphant majority are proceeding
wisely and like loyal Republicans, in
tent fully upon making the nomination
which the delegates were appointed to
make, but also with a determination to
carry out their plans without any more
disturbance of party harmony.
The sudden reversal on the part Of
the credentials committee of its first ac-
ton means that the steam roller has
been put out of commission and that
the committee means to proceed in
fair-minded spirit in disposing of the
contested cases. 1t was great c6nces-
sion to the other side when it declared
itself ready to hear evidence and to
listen to both sides, though such hear
ings had been held already before the
whole body of the National Commit
tee. This may mean that a few Roose-
welt delegates may be seated, but not
enough to alter conditions or results.
The Taft majority probably would be
diminished very little in convention by
decisions by which the benefit Of the
doubt might be given to every oou-
testant for whom the Roosevelt people
could make reasonable showing. We
call this good politics, because it will
convince all, save the most extreme and
absolutely unreasonable partisans of
Roosevelt, that the majority is not un-
Just or arbitrary 1t will also remove
any Just provocation for a bolt
But the fact remains nevertheless that
the issue is drawn tight between pro-
gressives and reactionaries, and there
never may be a Republican convention
like this, for il may be that after the
Chicago and Baltimore conventions the
people of the country may divide to a.
large extent on radical and conservative
lines, irrespective of affiliations.
A compromise between the Taft and
other candidates being out of the ques
ton. what does the convention face?
A deadlock, a dilemma, a dark horse,
unless Mr. Taft carries the nomination
The Republican party MUST nominate
Taft to avoid all this, or it will break
with its past and its future at one
stroke The leaders see this. They are
wise and farseeing. They will manage
it so that the President will be renamed
as standard bearer. They must sue
ceed or open the White House door
themselves for the foe.

in which he burst upon Chicago, all
fight, all buster, demanding that he
alone be allowed to organize the Re-
publican convention and denouncing as
thieves and worse all those who oP-
posed him. Who wound have ever .ex-
pected to hear this intrepid fighter ad-
dress his adherents, 4 am through"
meaning that he, the leader, deserted,
but requested his army to press on
ward TO their own destruction?
Mr.. Roosevelfs followers are divided
into individual-or better into class--in-
terests. There are radicals and pro-
gressives. In the former class must
be placed Gov. johnson of California,
Gov. Stubs of Kansas Cecil Lyon Of
Texas, and Mr.. Heney, of anti-boodlers
fame in San francisco. These men
would follow the colonel everywhere.
Then there are other men in the Roose-
welt camp who would go with him
through thick and thin" the little"
men who have no responsibility no po-
litical past or future, nothing at stake.
But how many would there be, all
told?
OF the progressive Republicans, men
of substance, of sound sense who are
not prepared to destroy in order to
gain personal ends. are men like Gov.
Hadley, Senator Borah, and a handful
of others who understand how to give
ear to new ideas without giving them
selves over altogether to self-deception
or worse folly. This division also has
had great weight in putting a quietus
upon any bolt talk, thus playing into the
hands of Wall Street and Perkins TN

By GEORGE FITCH,

South Carolina is a State Of perpetual
irritation, situated between Georgia and
North Carolina, and somewhere between
the revolution and the civil war. 1t
is the fghtinIst State in the Union, and
is the unsafest spot between the At
lantic and the Pacific in which to dis
cuss the emancipation proclamation or
to edit a newspaper with a trenchant
pen.
South Carolina is about as big as the
front yard OF a Texas cattle king. 1t
contains 5000 square miles, is shaped
like a five cent cut Of pie, and has
10000 people, including Republicans,
Chinese, and Indians not taxed. The
population Is almost equally divided be-
tween whites and negroes, but one white
Carolinian when he gnashes his teeth
and draws in his breath with a low
kissing sound can make 100 colored resi-
dents go away in search or rest and a
change Of climate without waiting for
the next train.
South Carolina was settled about 80
years ago, but has remained unsettled
ever since. II has always been noted
for its nervous disposition and its
willingness to rise up and smite the uni
verse on all Occa sions. The British were
having an easy time in the revolution

civil war by seeding with a prOdigiOus
