Washington, April 7.--(Spccial)- D.
Ten great states, with an aggregate
electoral vote of 11S. now have laws
providing a free. full and voluntary
expression by the voters of their pref

In every one OF these states there In

1912 One Of these 10 states. North

Tafts candidacy by n vote OF about
1O-to-1 at the primaries.
With the exception of Maryland
every one of these states is normally
republican. Colonel Rooscvclts nom

republican party.
The states now having primary laws
are California, with 10 electoral votes

NO Chance tor TAFT.
An analysis of the sentiment in each
OF these states shows the .futility OF
Mr.. Taft's trying to carry any one of
them. CALIFORNIA; governor is strong

the voters, Is sure to repudiate Taft
