The last time that President TAFT

a club a dinner. Just as he entered the
hall he found Job Hedges In the very

Mr.. Hedges declined TO stop when the
president entered. AS he explained 10
the audience. he had just come TO the
peroration OF his address; and the
peroration was the only thing in the
whole speech that was worth shucks,
and he didn't propose to have his play
concluded just as the curtain had gone

chances OF the reelection OF Taft.
Roosevelt could certainly notesupport
Taft after what has been said; and
he might very logically believe II to
be his duty to publicly oppose him.
Should the Democrats put forward a
Progressive candidate, and should
Roosevelt campaign for him. his cleo
ton would be 'walk-over' II opposed

sistency, Roosevelt would surely be

deluded into giving a crooked" and
feeble" man another term.
All the indications are, however,
that the "stand-patters" will drop Tart
when the psychological moment comes,
and put up a compromise candidate
whom Roosevelt could accept. Roose-
Welt probably has three progressive de
sires In his heart-first, TO beat Taft (;
