Roosevelt Had Good Manager.

On the contrary, the Roosevelt
campaign has been managed by the
most capable and adroit political
manipulation now in public life. SEN
ator Dixon has abundantly earned
this tribute, however reluctant I may
be to give it. Hanna in his palmiest
days was not in the same class with
the Roosevelt leader. When he gives
figures it is only after he knows ex-
actly what he is talking about, as has
been continuously shown. With this
premise l give you the following for
what it is worth:
| asked Senator Dixon Saturday to
give me the honest facts in the sit
uation to date, and he replied in
part: "Col Roosevelt will have at
least 100 majority on the first bal
lot at Chicago. We estimate it as
from 100 to $50, but we will have
rising LOO as certain as Roosevelt
lives until that day. Knowing who
and where our men are, l make this
statement with the utmost certain
ty." There you have it.

The air is full of the talk of sub
stituting another man in place of
Taft as a candidate at Chicago, but
however meritorious the idea the
proposition would seem to many to
be wholly impossible. When it is
undertaken to deliver 500 or 800
delegates en- masse to a man who has
no claims on them and for whom
they have no specific reason for vot-
ing other than to defeat Roosevelt
the scheme is bound to fail. Many
Of them would go to Roosevelt, and
render his success certain by an over
whelming majority.
AS to the democratic condition,
there is as yet no apparent prospect
that Clark will have the necessary
two-thirds in the convention, but
it is possible that Underwood will
throw his forces to him and help
him out. However, this is an inn
probability. Harmon stock is look
ing up since the Ohio primaries, but
he is yet no more than a promising
dark horse. Finally, it will be s'Tyan
or man with Bryan tag, and the
chances today are three to one that
William J. Bryan will eventually be
named at Baltimore.
Then you will have the old ticket
of Roosevelt and Bryan, the devil
and the deep sea.

the remaining appropriation bills
and few other of the more import
ant measures, and by the throwing
overheard or postponement of such
measures as are not really necessary
OF enactment at this session Today
the fate of the tariff bills Is tremb-
ling in the balance. The democrats
have insisted on a vote in the SEN
ate, to which many republicans have
agreed, but a few of the latter in
sist that these shall not be voted on.
/ The intense desire for speedy adj
journment overruling everything else
may result in no vote, or, vote may
be taken on two or three of them
with very little more debate. This
question must be settled in a few
days, certainly, and in the present
impatience of the senate anything
may happen.
Looks Dark for Taft.
Nothing whatsoever is now talked
here except adjournment and presi-
Dental politics. AS to the latter,
whatever change in the situation
there has been in the past week has
been manifestly to the advantage Of
Roosevelt. With the assumption that
| should give you the facts in the sit
uation as it is seen here, | am COM
PEELED to say that from the Washing
ton standpoint the nomination of
Taft looks-if not an actual impos-
sibility-decidedly inadvisable. If
1t could be possibly brought about, it
is now considered a hopeless nomin-
alton.
1t is not believed that the Nc
Kinley estimation of the number of
Taft delegates will hold water for a !
moment. Of course much depends on
the action of the national committee !
in seating contesting delegations, but |
any apparent attempt at favoritism
would instantly provoke such riot |
that it would at once defeat it's own |
object. 1t was evidently the object |
of the Rooseveltian cohorts to pro-
woke as many contests as possible !
with the end in view of soaring the |
committee into deciding in their |
favor in at least some instances, and |
even if these were clean steal they |
would be so much clear gain.
Again, the Taft estimate includes
all the unpledged delegates, which /
will not stand for a mo-
ment. Many of these are already on
the Roosevelt bandwagon. Not alone
these, but it is we'll understood that /
certain delegates elected as for Taft |
are now for Roosevelt. These facts
render the Taft tables entirely value
less. Very likely there are some holes
in the Roosevelt tables, but they have
their claims pretty we'll nailed.
Another thing. The management
Of Taft's campaign has been ridi-
culous failure from the start Nc
Kinley has made a most woeful botch
Of it throughout. Taft has been left
alone to fight his own
battle. On the stump he has had no
assistance of the least value. The
few speeches of members of his cab
met have been discounted because of
heir source, and the country has
ieered at the whole sorrowful spec
,acle..
