A list of straight La Toilette
delegates to the national conven-
tion was filed at Pierre last Satur-
day to be voted for at the June
primaries. This makes two tickets
filed by the anti-Taft forces, and
the Roosevelt followers have de-
manded that the delegates selected
on the Sioux Falls list come out
unreservedly for Mr.. Roosevelt, or
if they fail to do 80 a straight
Roosevelt list will also be filed. 1t
would be little more gratifying to
the Taft forces if the opposition
would uni:e so that there would be
enough for mess, but it won't
make much difference as the presi.
dent will have majority over all
anyway.

The Taft managers now claim
761 delegates in Iowa up to the
first of this week, twenty more
than enough to control the state
convention, with 164 delegates yet
to be elected. Nevada went solid
for the president last week, in
Reno the vote being four to one in
his favor. Kentucky held her pri
maries Saturday and the president
got ten of the eleven congressional
districts, with the usual cry of
''fraud" by the opposition. In
West Virginia in county con-
vention held at Parkersburg where
Mr.. Roosevelt spoke a few days
before, the president had 26 in
structed delegates, Roosevelt 2 and
uninstructed 5. These are but
samples of the reports coming
from all parts of the country, and
indicate that it is all over but the
shouting.

The Sioux Falls Press thinks
that Pres. Taft and his associates
right down in their hearts now
wish that they had some such
plan as Col. Roosevelt proposes
for recalling the decision of judges
so that the decision of the supreme
court on the patent law could be
recalled. Well, hardly. The RENE
dy is not recall of the decision
but an amendment to the patent
laws, and during all of the seven
years and half that Mr.. Roose-
velt was president we do not recall
that he recommended any such
amendment.

The experiment with socialism
in Milwaukee doesn't seem to have
been very satisfactory to the citi
zens. The socialist mayor of that
city was defeated for re-election
last week by majority of $4,000
votes. The result of the expert
ment appears to have been an in
crease in taxes of about fifty per
cent with no corresponding better
ment of the city's condition. One
of the plans for the reckless ex-
penditure of money was an effort
to purchase land for a new city
park. The land was owned by two
or three big brewing firms and had
recently been offered for sale at
100000. The socialist authori-
ties were about to close deal for
the purchase of the property at
ST., 900, 1000, and expected to spend
another million in Improvements
but the deal was blocked by an
appeal to the courts. The citizens
concluded that socialism was
much better as an abstract theory
than as an actual practice.
