La Toilette Expected
To Carry Wisconsin

MILWAUKEE. Wis. April LEADERS
of national politics are looking ahead
with acute interest to the Presidential
preference primaries in Wisconsin to-
morrow, the first to be held under the
new State law. Delegates-at-large and
district delegates to the national con-
ventions of both parties are to be Sc
lected.
Wisconsin is the home of Senator La
Toilette, and is generally supposed to
have strong progressive leanings. I'm
partial judges of the situation predict
that La Toilette will carry the majority
of the Republican delegation, with dele
gates reported in some cases to favor
Roosevelt for second choice. The Taft
men, including many of the older lead
ers of the party. have waged an active
campaign, but their hope is not to get
a majority of the delegation, but to pre-
vent La Toilette from having a unani-
nous vote from the State. On the
Democratic side, confident claims are
being made in behalf of Clark, Wilson,
and Harmon. and It is impossible to pre-
dict with any degree of certainty
which of the three Candidates will Sc
cure the largest number of delegates
from Wisconsin to the Baltimore con-
vention.

the party had much longer to exist as
q compromise between hopelessly OPP
posed progressive and reactionary ele-
ments.
: Among these people talk of a third
party has not been regarded as sedi-
ton; 1t has not even been necessary to
close and bolt doors and speak in whis-
pers when such conversation was in
dulged On the other hand, the no
ton that 1912 might see a new move
ment launched has been cultivated per-
haps more sedulously and widely since
the tariff session of 1909 than most peo-
pie imagine or realize.
Bryan, Roosevelt, and La Toilette
have all three been reliable party men.
Bryan was once a populist for short
time, but since his arrival among first
class figures in national affairs he has
always kept his regularity on straight
albeit the substance was not very
notable at times. Roosevelt in 1884, as
very young man already a leader in
his party, supported Blaine after it was
generally conceded that he would bolt.
La Toilette in 1904, though his Wiscon-
sin delegation was thrown out of the
national convention, remained regular.
Again in 1908, though pretty distinctly
invited to get out, he stayed in the
party.
Records for Loyalty.
30 there is, a record of firm party
Iloyalties on the part of all three of
these men. On the personal side Bryan
and La Toilette are sincere and rather
close personal friends. But between
Bryan and Roosevelt, or La Toilette
and Roosevelt. there has never been
any lavish affection; neither pair have
been drawn together. 1t would be only
a most extraordinary set of circum-
stances that could bring these three
Snen to call upon their respective fol-
lowings in fight to create new
party.
Yet there is no gainsaying that today
there is more third-party talk than
ever before. and that 1t comes up from
all parts of the country. It is not sec
tional, like the old peoples party move
ment. 1t comes from all parts. It is
one of the most interesting facts about
the present development of the ma
tional campaign.
The interaction between different To-
litcal factors, in such a mixed stua-
ton as this OF today, Is most curious.
The feeling that Taft cannot be elected
II nominated has encouraged a certain
recklessness among the Democrats. Six
months ago Democrats were a unit IN
insisting that they would win "if they
just put up good progressive" Today
the same politicians who used to talk
that way are engaged in an alliance rC
defeat the one Democratic candidate
whom the progressive wing of the rnrtN
accepts, and who makes appeal to tn,
progressive wing of the Republican
party as well.
II this alliance should succeed, /
Clark or Harmon should get the Demo
cratic nomination, and If Taft shouit
get the Republican, then the inducemen
for a third party would be vastly in
creased. The progressives in both par
ties beaten at home. would see M
chance at all unless they should ge
together in a new party for all proGres
sives. That Is the condition most likel!
TO make a third party a serious posi-
bility.
