Plan to Gust
T. r. Committeeman

CHICAGO, June PA plan to GUST
Roosevelt members of the Republican
national committee has been formed.
Under the provisions of rule that will
be presented when the long deferred
permanent organization of the conven-
ton at last gets under way, national
committeeman who bolt the party NOM
inee may be ousted. The national
committee itself is to be judge and jury
and is to have power to fill it's own va
cancies This is the answer to Roose-
velt's denunciation of the nationa!
committee and his demand that it be
done away with hereafter
The rule that will be offered provides
that ordinary vacancies on the national
committee may be filled as at present
by the central committee of the state.
The new power given the committee is
to Gust members who do not support
the candidate nominated at the ma
tional convention.
The committee itself may appoint the
men to fill these places. This gives
the state affected no voice whatever IN
the selection of a national committee
man.
The rule was outlined when it was
asserted by a number OF the committee
members who have favored Roosevelt
that they would support no other can
didate nominated here.
Another rule intended to strengthen
the power Of the committee is one that
provides that election of national COM
mitteemen under the primary laws of a
state shall be considered only nomi
nation and that the state delegation Of
any such state at the national conven-
ton shall elect the committeeman.
This rule resulted from the demand
of r. B. Howell, of Nebraska, elected
committeeman at the state primaries
for seat on the committee before the
delegate contests started
A rule to be placed before the con-
vention by the minority provides for
the reduction of delegates from the
Southern states and the increase OF
representatives in the big Republican
states. Under the plan proposed the
national convention would be made ur
on the basis of one delegate for each
10, 900 Republican votes at the proceed
ing presidential election.
The plan for this change is an old
one and has been brought up at mum
Der of conventions. The South has al
ways succeeded in getting enough trad
ing strength to defeat it.

SO LaF'ollette delegates, they said,

The committee stated that these Taft

LaFOllette Has
New Party Already

CHICAGO, June 21-LaFollette men
already have organized a new party,
according to Professor Charles McCar-
thy, librarian at the Wisconsin State
university. There has been no name
given to the party. Its organization
has not been perfected, further than
agreeing on a general progressive pro-
gram.
If the Roosevelt men want to join in
the new party, all right, says Professor
Mccarthy.

contested. Roots claims to the chair
manship owned no such broad founda-
ton. If those contested delegates were
steal, Roots craftsmanship was a
steal. The convention was but as so
much stolen goods of politics.
Roosevelt, upon the terms he had
laid down. could have ordered a bolt

war, favored that plan; Flynn, of Penn

But Borah and Hadley were of quiet

insisted that bolt to be effective
must have a moral backing 1t was
worth while to stay in the convention
to the end that as much injustice as
possible be done them. Having been
slapped upon the one cheek in the
election of Root, it was good politics
to turn the other cheek and receive
second slap in the confirmation of
the bogus delegates in their stolen
seats
Thus argued the Hadleys and the
Borahs. and while Roosevelt heard
them with impatience. not to say Sc
cret wrath, he was obliged to heed
them in his housekeeping.
Roosevelt Will Be Candidate.
Roosevelt will go before the people
for the presidency. He win go either
as the regular candidate of the Re
publicans or as the candidate of a
boltin~ convention of Republicans. or
as the Moses of a new party which he
will call the National party. In sober
truth, Roosevelt rather prefers the lat
ter idea. He would take Democrat
on with him for vice president in that
case just to show there was no hard
feeling, and throw himself upon the
people
Hadley, they say. is preening his
feathers for a possible nomination Of
the compromise variety. He thinks

may come when the Roosevelts. Tafts,
