TAFT WINS SECOND
ROUND OF BATTLE

Continued from Page Three.
The Washington herald., 1912-06-20

Mrs. William Borah. wife Of the Idaho
Senator. did not remain in the Coliseum
any longer than she had to after Roots
election was announced. Pulling her hat
back TO the middle OF her head from the
side she said: Isn't II too bad? But II
doesn't mean that Taft has the nomina-
ton by any means"

The convention showed its good sense
by declining to listen to the argument
of Gov. Hadley that a body of dele
gates as yet unorganized could pass
upon the temporary roll, which was
about to give them the right to vote.
There is no basis for the contention
that a convention can make a decision
of any sort until the temporary organ
ization i in full effect A convention,
moreover, can begin work only after
some qualified authority decides who
constitutes its membership. No ele-
ment in an assemblage in a Soto
say chaotic state should be given the
right or opportunity to judge of the
qualifications of other elements. It
was wise and legitimate to dismiss the
Hadley motion to amend the roll and
to have the delegates affected by the
process disbarred from vot-
ing on his motion. 1t was we'll for the
Missouri Governor and delegates to
abandon his desire.

The California delegation celebrated the
temporary craftsmanship vote as a Roose-
welt victory, and late last night It secured
three big brass bands, consolidated them,
placed them under the direction Of one
band major. and paraded through the
downtown hotels, bearing aloft big ban
ner on which Roosevelt's familiar features
appeared. They were followed by a cheer
ing crowd.

added to his total Of 40 delegates, can
not give him the coveted majority The
twenty more he is sure to get on the
first ballot viii make for him 400, but
where are the remaining fifty to come
from?
As to Mr.. Taft's chances: In case he
loses the Maryland, Oregon, and Illi-
nois votes cast for Root (twenty), but
belonging to Roosevelt, and if he makes
no gains elsewhere, his strength will be
reduced to s38 or two below the neces-
sary majority. Should he regain the
lost six Hawaiisns and suffer no fur
ther defections, Mr. Taft may carry
the nomination on the first ballot 1t
would be a close shave

A negro delegate from South Carolina is
nursing a throat with a real raspy feel

that he could pull OF a perfect imitation
OF a Mississippi steameoat whistle. He
and his friends were so elated with this
discovery that the man with the voice
worked overtime.
