Attempted Stampede to Bryan.

Hugh Wallace who has been chosen as
one of the delegates from the state OF
Washington to the Baltimore convention,
is in the city. and reports to Clark head
quarters that the state of Washington is
practically solid for Clark as result or
the Washington state convention. He
said, referring to the collapse of the Will
son movement in the Walla Walla con-
vention, and the attempted stampede to
MIR. Bryan, that there was apparently a
concerted movement on the part OF the
supporters of Wilson in Washington to
attempt to carry the convention for the
Nebraskan.
When they saw they were beaten.
Mr.. Wallace said, after the preferential
vote was taken upon a roll call. ana II
was certain that Wilson was defeated,
delegation after delegation began to
change its vote from Wilson to Bryan.
and the convention was in tumult for
more than twenty minutes. The effort
was easily checked by one small delega-
ton changing its vote from Wilson to

Roosevelt and the South.

Taft headquarters last night gave out
the following:
Theodore Roosevelt, in his recent
speech at Greensboro n. c.. said if NOM
mated for President he would return to
the south and attempt to. carry a south
ern state at the coming election In a
public statement made at Oyster Bay,
n. Y, Sunday. May II. Mr.. Roosevelt
again expressed the hope that there
should be built up in the south strong
republican party.
What is the record? Theodore Roose-
welt Is making this campaign on the
demagogic cry: Let the people rule
During his presidency he followed the
opposite policy in the south. In each
state he built up personal oligarchy or
federal office holders. who, acting as his
representatives. denied to the rank and
file of the party in many southern states
the right of participating in the affairs
of the party. In no one state was TINS
power more arbitrarily exercised than
in Texas. where. under Col. Cecil Lyon,
the republican vote fell from 16l eco In
1896 to $1,000 in 1904 and $1,000 in 1913,
and to o60 COO in 1910.
Theodore Roosevelt's policy in the
south was exactly the opposite of the
policies of both Presidents Mckinney
and Taft. Its results are shown in the
republican votes in all southern states
in 1900, when Mckinley was the candi-
date; in 1904. when Roosevelt was the
candidate, ard in 1905, when Taft was
the candidate. Both Mckinley and Taft
polled $4,000 more republican votes in
the south than did Roosevelt, although
both were pitted against William j. Bry-
an, the strongest democratic presidential
nominee since Cleveland, while ROose-
Welt ran against Parker, the weakest
democratic nominee since Greeley. TAFT
carried every southern state as against
Roosevelt, while Mckinley lost only
three.
IF there is any merit to strength in
the south as between Roosevelt and Taft
President Taft has it on his side by
ma iority of 10000 votes. and his popu-
larity has been further reflected by the
delegates instructed and pledged to him
this year from that section. 1t is no ex-
aggeration to say that Mckinley and Taft
were and are the most popular repub-
lican Presidents in the south since the
civil war, and President Taft today IS
more likely to break the solid south in
this years campaign than Theodore
Roosevelt can ever hope to do with the
record he left behind him in the presi-
Dental office with particular reference

Farley, who Is here on a tour OF the
Pacific coast, declares the day OF the
Turk In Europe is done.
Asked what attitude ne expected the
Christian nations to take following the
declaration OF holy war by the muezzin.
he said: IF you had asked me that
question about 400 years ago, when
the Pope had some temporal power, I
would be able to give an answer to II.
Since the Pope has lost this power
there Is lack OF coalition among the
Christian nations and It Is absolutely
impossible for me or any one else to
attempt to figure out what their atti.
tude will Be.
strictly speaking, there Is no such
thing as the attitude OF the Christian n
nations at all. Each nation has its own
attitude. and that Is so bound up In its
own ambitions that none OF them acts
from the viewpoint OF Christianity at
all. They are Christian nations merely
