Tribune.
John p vollmer. Who recently re-
tuFred TO bis home In Lewiston from
a six-veeks' trip east. stated in an
inlsrview In Tuesdays Tribune that
"The sentiment throughout the east
suggests that Col. Roosevelt is due
to receive a severe drubbing at the
hands Of the people. That CoIum-
bus speech and the third term fea-
ture are barriers against Mr.. Roose-
veli's candidacy, and the general
sentiment IL Chicago and New York
Is that Mr.. Roosevelt viii receive a
very small per cent Of the conserya-
tive business vote Of the country.
New York and Chicago are censers
where The political sentiment Of the
country naturally drifts and during
the past few months there has been
an unusual activity Al these points
ln establishing connections With the
pulse Of the people on the Presiden-
lial situation. "This investigation,
continued Mr.. vollmer. "has led to
the conclusion that the sentiment OPP
posed TO Mr.. Roosevelt Is 50 strong
that he will receive but scanty sup
port IN the national convention. and
Il is believed this sentiment will be-
come stronger as the date Of the con-
veniion approaches"
