ROOSEVELT BOOM BEGUN.
Eight Governors and Delegates
from 20 States Meet in
Chicago.

Chicago, Feb. 10.-Eight Governors
and delegates from % states met here
today. and in an informal conference
organized permanent committee to
push the candidacy of Theodore Roose-
welt for the Republican nomination for
President.
The Governors addressed letter to
Col. Roosevelt, in which they explained
the purpose of the meeting, and asked
him to let it be known that if the peo-
pie demand he accept the nomination,
the demand would not be unheeded by
him.
The permanent organization of the
committee follows:
Chairman, Alexander H. Revell; vice.
chairman, Edward j. Brundage; secre-
tary, Edwin w. Sims; treasurer, Dwight
Lawrence. An executive committee of
seven members will be appointed later.
On the roll call the delegates told of
work already done toward promoting
the former Presidents candidacy. Sew
eral reported complete organizations.
Gov. Hadley of Missouri, Gov. Osborn
of Michigan and ex-Gov. Fort of New
Jersey described plans of campaign
nearly completed.
The meeting was without disagree
ment and the resolutions adopted de-
clare that "all are agreed Theodore
Roosevelt is the one man who can at
this time unite all elements of the party
and attract Large numbers of indie
pendent voters"
The resolutions further favor an ex-
preston of the peoples choice for Presi-
dent by direct vote for candidate in
each state and appeal to all agreeing
with that sentiment to join the move
ment. They conclude with a protest
against the use of organized political
machinery, based on patronage, to de-
prive the people of any voice in their
real choice"
In statement signed by the eight
Governors, Walter R. Stubs of Kansas,
Chase S. Osborn of Michigan, Herbert
Hadley of Missouri, Chester H. AID
rich of Nebraska, Robert P. Bass of
New Hampshire, w. E. Glasscock of
West Virginia, R. E. Wesley of South
Dakota and j. M. Carey Of Wyoming,
the following was set forth;
"Momentous questions are pressing
for solution; what the country is seek
ing is justice between man and man. 1t
wants equality of justice safeguarded
by adequate law.
"a principle is of no avail without a
man, cause is lost without leader
In Theodore Roosevelt we believe the
principle has the man; the cause, the
leader. 1t is our opinion that this is
the sentiment of the people in the states
we represent.
cit is nothing to US that Theodore
Roosevelt is not a candidate for the
Republican nomination; we believe the
people have decided to make him their
candidate Boston Herald.

The Taft OeIeg ates.

"The friends of President Taft are in
control" remarked Collector Jackson
of Atlanta, "and they will see that the
national delegates are for Taft. Nc
lukewarm men will be selected either.
The men chosen will be for Taft first,
last and all the time" And Collector
Jackson and the rest of the federal
Office holders in Georgia seem to have
done their work. The delegates in
another Democratic State are pledged
to the denomination of Mr.. Taft; still
more are promised in the next ten
days.
But what will it mean in party
strength at the polls to choose a man
as candidate for the presidency whose
nomination rests on the votes of States
which will not and cannot give him a
ballot in the electoral college?
Of the twenty-four delegates that
have been elected, eight are from
Territories, sixteen from States OF
Congress districts in which the Demo
orats preponderate to the extent of
Al, 000 Three of the Congress districts
that have chosen Taft delegates are SC
Overwhelmingly Democratic that the
Republicans do not even make nominal
tons in opposition.
This is only the beginning. The
administration scouts claim in all 26e
delegates, or more than quarter of the
convention, from States which will cast
127 solid Democratic votes in the
electoral college. The 26S is about halt
the 500 votes necessary to nominate the
Republican candidate for President.

No Turning over" Prosressives.

The idea of Congressman w. B. Nc
Kinley, who has taken charge of the
campaign for Mr.. Taft's denomination,
that Mr.. Roosevelt is breaking up the
progressive movement with the idea of
delivering the progressives to Taft is
more ingenious than ingenious.
Col. Roosevelt is not breaking up the
progressive movement, and is not plan
ming to deliver it to anyone. He is the
typical progressive Republican and
recognized as such. Around him and
the policies with. which his name has be-
come identified are gathered the Re-
publicans who believe that under his
leadership alone will there be expansion
and progress for the party, and this
year base hope of success in appeal to
the people with platform of construc-
tive advance and prosperity for the
country. Roosevelt represents the feel
ing that when human rights clash with
property rights, human rights should
prevail.
Roosevelt is not interested more in
the machinery of government than in
the promotion of human welfare. 1t is
on vital questions that the people have
felt his leadership. On the question of
decent hours of labor and adequate
wages, the question of lynchings, the
question of pure food and the question
of the protection of children his leader
ship has been felt and recognized.
There has been wide human response.
Men recognize Roosevelt as the leader
who, by personal appeal. reused the
people to the idea of the right of the
public to keep the ownership and the
control of the property which belongs to
the public and to prevent it from pass
ing into the ownership and under the
control of special interests.
1t was his initiative that has given us
to so large degree government regu-
lation and control of the public high
ways for equal rights and his leader
ship can best carry it forward.
1t is these things which have won him
the unshakable confidence of the people,
which give him place as leader which
he could not hand over to any man, if
he would. Boston Journal.

TRAIN HELD SO HOURS IN
SNOW.
Similar Conditions Have Never
before Existed in New Works
Railroad History,

Albany, N. Y, Feb. 1.-THE train
carrying Tyrone Power and his
theatrical company and 40 other pas
sengers, which was stalled in the snow
on the New York Central railroad 10
miles east of Oswego, was released at
noon to-day after having been held Sc
hours. Two big rotary snowplows
which were sent to the rescue of the
imprisoned passengers were forced to
tunnel through huge drifts and later
the roof of the tunnel was knocked
out and the snow removed. Never be-
fore in railroad history in this State,
the officials say, have such conditions
existed.
Steam was kept up in the boiler of
the engine by shoveling snow into it
and food was obtained from a hotel
about a mile away so that the pas
sengers were kept fairly comfortable
during their long wait.
Two other passenger trains which
have been stalled at Red Creek, west of
Oswego, were shoveled out last night
after having been detained "a hours.
A trainload of hogs bound from
Chicago to Boston which had been
shipped in open cars became stalled in a
drift west of Syracuse and many of
them were frozen to death. An at
tempt wss made to unload the animals
at Syracuse when the train reached
there but there was no place to shelter
them and they were forced to go on.
The trainmen report that the squeal-
ing of the suffering hogs was pitiful.
Although the weather moderated
somewhat to-day, trains from the West
were several hours late. Many railroad
men are reported i'll as results of ex-
posture during the past few days.

FRIDAY, FEBRUARY t6, 1919.

[From Boston Journal.

The New York Globe, on reading the
speech of Congressman Mccall on the
Slayden resolution in the national
House, asks:
1.-The great pity in connection with
such a speech as Samuel w. Mccall of
Massachusetts delivered in the House
of Representatives against third terms
is that it is difficult to tell how much the
speaker meant of it. Is Mr.. Mccall
sincerely apprehensive concerning the
future of the republic, or is he merely
trying to beat ROOSEVELT"
There can be no doubt in New
England. Both in the historical review
and in the past relations of the two men
lies the answer. There was no ap-
prehension as to the future of the
Republic, but there was a desire
to strike back in a contest of long
standing, in which Mr.. Roosevelt scored
one of the great victories that helped
the whole nation.
AS to the presentation of the record, the
constitutional convention of 1887 struck
out proposed provision against the re-
eligibility of the President. Washing
ton himself, writing to John JAY spoke
of circumstances that might again con-
strain him to become a candidate. The
1875 resolution of Congress was aimed
at consecutive third term. Grant did
not become candidate until four years
later; and Congress has yet to go on
record in any way against third term
after an interval of private citizenship
An impartial presentation of facts might
have proved McCalPs interest in the
broad question.
The twisting or omission of history
reveals him aiming at the man whose
dominating, resistless leadership for the
whole country gave the people the rail-
road rate law of 1906, despite the bitter
opposition of the reactionares in both
Houses, of whom Mccall was most
persistent and unreenting.
The result of Roosevelt's work for
regulation is nationwide. What was
termed radicalism then has proved its
right basis and conservatism today.
Most of the men who fought his initia-
tive and led then have been fair-minded
enough to recognize the enormous
advantage that has come of it.
Mccall has never been reconciled.
He betrays stiff-necked animosity, but
the contrast will react on him. 1t can
not damage Roosevelt.

Mr.. Taft's Mistake.

At Lincoln day speech in New York
the President took occasion to slam the
progressives by calling them name of
contempt. AS sincere well-wishers of
Mr.. Taft we regret very much that he
should offend body of men who may
have it in their power to elect or defeat
the candidate for nomination or election.
The contemptuous term of neurotics "
does not fit the men whom he thus sig
nalizes. They are men of high char
acter and good principles, sincerely fol-
lowing their consciences and their ideals.
No doubt the breakdown of LaFollette
gave Mr.. Taft the cue that induced him
TO give them that scornful title.
Mr.. Taft made very serious mistake,
not only because of the complete break
down of one progressive but the remark
will be taken as offensive, not only to
the progressives, but to their friends.
We call 1t serious error of judgment,
not only for its effect on Mr. Taft per-
sonally as well as upon the party.
of long and hard fight will tell disas-
trously if the campaign is conducted on
that line. The President seems to have
decided to fight not only the Democrats,
but section of his own party. On that
battle ground Mr.. Taft will feel back
fire that will be fatal. 1t appears to US
that harmony is the most important con-
dition in this campaign.
We have been saying in this column
for many days, that the President him
self is progressive. He has acted like
one on several occasions; and we think
now that his feelings regarding many
policies are similar to those of conserva-
tive progressives. In any case it is
bad policy, at least doubtful wisdom, to
stir enmity at the present time when
the party has enough dangerous assures
already. Burlington News.
