SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 16.-tt
looks like clean sweep of the west
for the progressives. That is Colonel
Roosevelt's confident prophecy in re-
fering to the political situation west
of the Rocky mountains as it impress
ed him in his coast to coast swing,
The ex-president realizes the split
in the Republican party in many west
ern states involves hard fight to
carry them for the Progressive ticket.
But he believes that the Wilson can
didacy is steadily losing ground, thai
the Taft candidacy is in no sense
threatening, and that the Progressive
movement is gaining force apace.
Roosevelt thinks the Progressives
will sruely carry these states of the
cluster he has touched in his western
tour, California, Oregon, Washington,
Idaho, Iowa, Minneapolis, North Da.
kota and Missouri.
