the La Toilette campaign announced
today that Senator La Toilette would
come into this state and make a
fight in his interest in anticipation
of the state primaries on May 29.
The itinerary has not been arranged,
but the Senator will probably make
daytime speeches in the smaller
towns and speak In the large cities
in the evening. Senator La Follett's s
name is on the preferential Presiden-
tial primary ballot, and candidates
instructed for him have been nomi-
mated in most Of the Congressional
Districts. 1t is expected that Sena-
tor La Toilette will invade New Jer-
sey next week and 1t Is likely
therefore, that President Taft, Colo
mel Roosevelt and the Senator will
all be in the state at the same time
in the respective vote hunting cam
paigns. This will be the first time
these three Republicans have come
togther in this fashion.
