Roosevelt DISPATCHES Finn.

Oyster Bay, n. Y, June lin close
touch with Chicago by means OF a
direct wire to Sycamore Hill, Iheo-
dore Roosevelt Is directing the pre-
convention fight through his lieuten-
ants upon the ground. His most sig
niticant move was to dispatch Senator
William Finn Of PENNSYLVANIA to the
scene Of the struggle, after a long
conference in which F. A. Van Val
kenburgh, Alexander p. Moore and
Richard Quay, son of the late Boss
Quay, also participated. The session
did not terminate until a late hour,
and Senator Finn got away barely in
time to catch the last train from New
York to the convention city.
That Senator Finn is fastening to
the field Of action fresh from such q
conference to look after the interests
Of his commander in chief Is proof
enough of !he character of the fight
which is to ensue during the next ten
days. If strong arm tactics are to be
resorted TO champions will not be
lacking oil the Roosevelt side.
Said the colonel with evident salts
faction:
Senator Finn Is starting at once
at my request for Chicago"
Questioned as to the senator's mis-
sion, he replied:
81 want him to be there In my in
terest. Senator Dixon will be in
charge, but Finn Is to assist Dixon
Colonel May Be There.
The colonel made it plain that he
did not feel that his presence would
be desirable in the early stages of the
conflict, but later that Is another mat
ter. He more than intimated that the
last of next week might see a change
in his plans.
II am not now Intending to go, but
| may at the end OF next week"
This was a far as he cared to com
NIT himself upon the oft recurring
question.

THE STAY AT HOME VOTE.

That there was big stay at
home vote in the recent president
ial election in Kentucky is evil
denced by the official figures as
given out from Frank fort.
The vote cast for Wilson was
smaller by "a. 59S than the vote
recorded for Bryan in 1908, and
the combined ~ote of Taft and
Roosevelt was smaller by I7,433
than Taft's vote of four Years ago.
This is loss of 42,o3I from the
aggregate Democratic and Republi.
can vote of 1908. Viewed in con
nection with the natural increase
in the number of voters dnriug the
four-year period it shows clearly
that very great number of Ken
lucky voters did not take the
trouble to vote.
1t is easily seen that the Demo
Gratis suffered most by reason of
this staying at home vote. In
Jefferson. county alone the Demo
cratic vote fell off 2,oS6 as COM
pared with the Bryan vote of four
years ago, while the combined
Taft Roosevelt vote was only I55
below the Taft vote of 1908. The
tremendous Democratic plurality
of 1o4, 72o over the Taft electors in
the State dwindles to a majority
of 1902 over the combined vote
Of the Taft and Roosevelt electoral
tickets. There is falling eff of
more than 1000 in the Democratic
presidential vote in 1912 as COM
pared with the Democratic GU
bernatorial vote in 1911. On the
contrary the combined Taft
Roosevelt presidential vote is
larger 10y nearly IS 900 than the
Republican gubernatorisl vote in
1911.
The Socialist party increased its
total vote from 1900 in 1908 to
1851. Assuming that all this
increase came from the old parties
there remain many thousand, OF
voters who failed to work up
enough enthusiasm in the recent
camp On to 60 to the polls.
