The Hattiesburg news. (Hattiesburg, Miss.) 1908-1917, 1912-03-13
(By Winfield Jones.)

Special to The Nelos.
Washington, March 13.-President
Taft is doomed to defeat if he is re-
nominated His weakness as a can
didate is being shown every day. The
standpat republicans, who are the
mainstay of the Taft campaign, are
unable to make any Roadway. Taft's
weakness as a candidate is clearly
shown by an analysis of the electoral
vote.
In only twenty-three of the forty
eight states is the administration now
in the hands of Republicans. These
states have 230 votes in the electoral
college.
There will be 531 votes in the cleo
toral college, making 266 necessary to
elect. 1t is doubtful if the Republicans
can hold the states in which they now
have the governorship.
In eight states Republican cover.
nors are leading strong opposition to
Taft.
The Republican voters in these
states are overwhelmingly in favor
of the nomination of Mr.. Roosevelt,
and if the President is renominated at
the Chicago convention the great prob.
ability is that the normal Republican
vote cannot be brought out at the
polls in these states.
In seven other states which now
have Republican California
Illinois, Iowa, Minnesota, New Mexi.
co, Washington, Wisconsin-there is
also decided opposition to President
Taft, such that it is more than doubt
full whether any kind Of campaign
that can be conducted in case the
President should be renominated
would be able to bring out the normal
Republican vote. These states have
an aggregate of ninety electoral votes
This puts 161 electoral votes, from
fifteen normally Republican states
into the doubtful column the moment
President Taft is declared the nomi
nee of the Chicago convention.
In case the nominee at Chicago is
Roosevelt, there is reason to suppose
that he would fail to carry many OF
these twenty-three Republican s+aree
He certainly would not carry Mary.
land and Tennessee.
The Roosevelt fight. therefore, would
have to be made in states which now
have Democratic administrations
There are twelve of these states. Col

AT HOME-FIRST CASE OF
kLND IN COUNTY

windsor, April 11.-After taking
20 fasteur treatments, staying at
the home of DR., Bartz, while he ad-
ministered them daily. Miss Flor
ence Austin, who was bitten by a
rabid dog three weeks ago, return
ed home this morning and will suf-
Ter no serious effects from the acct
dent. For the first time here the
Pasteur treatment was administered
and the physician and the patient
nave every reason to be satisfied
with the results. The fact that
MISS Austin at no time was nervous
over her case was a great aid in
the effectiveness of the treatment.
During the latter part of the treat
ment when the doses were admin
istered frequently, the patient was
slightly i'll.
Three weeks ago Miss Austin was
bitten on the hand by her pet dog.
1t was feared the animal had been
bitten the previous week by a
rabid stray dog and the family sent
the pet dog to Fort Collins where
it was shot and the brain examined.
y wen utiiHtu tdSt Oh RABIES WAS
apparent and the family lost no
time in making arrangements for
the treatment of their daughter.
DR.. Bartz sent to Philadelphia for
the toxin for the treatment and i'm
mediately begin its administration.
Since the stray dog was pro-
nounced mad there has been strict
quarantine on Windsor dogs. Last
week Tom Lewis was bitten by the
erguson dog but an examination
did not establish the fact of rabies
in the animnl Mr.. Lewis is not
thought to be in any danger al
though it is possible he may take
the Pasteur treatment to be entire
ly on the safe side.
