IN FIGHTING MOOD
Yesterdays Proceedings Stir the
 Colonel Somewhat.

OYSTER BAY, June 12.-"They are bolting from the republican party this moment" said Roosevelt tonight, of the supporters of Taft on the re- publican national committee. The colonel was aroused to a fighting mood by the news from Chicago. He denounced the action of the commit tee in deciding the contests for seats in the national convention from Ken lucky, Arizona and California.
 Roosevelt laid special emphasis upon the seating of the Taft dele gates from one California district. The colonel expressed an opinion that the national convention would not ratifv the seating of the Taft dele gates from California.
 What do you think the twenty four Roosevelt delegates all ready selected from California will do if the convention declines to admit the other two" Roosevelt was asked.
 T am not going to try to say what they will do," he replied. T am not making any prophecies" The colonel declined to comment upon the state ment of Finn and other Roosevelt supporters that the members of the electoral college from several repub- Hcan states which have been carried by Roosevelt at the primaries would cast their votes for him if Taft should be nominated.
 ROOSeVcltS statement in part 1oI- lows: In the Arizona case Taft's na- tional committeeman acted with great fTankness in their view that the in trusion of the people into politics is an unwarranted impertinence calling for a rebuke by the national commit tee The case turned on a single county, Maricopa. The county com mittee had the option of selecting del egates to the state convention or calling a primary to give the people the right to vote.
 At the meeting of the county com mittee all the Roosevelt men, joined by two Taft men ordered a primary 10 be held throughout the county. The minority of the county committee had d trump meeting and selected Taft delegates to the state convention. At the primaries the Roosevelt delegates were elected by a vote of $50 to less than p for Taft The national com mittee acting on Tafts theory that this country ought not to be a government by the people treated the fact that the voters had themselves been given the right say who their delegates should be- as a reason for refusing seats to the delegates elected by the voters. 1 call attention to the fact that the six Roosevelt delegates from Arizona are excluded by the na- tiOnal committee because they repre- sent the people of Arizona and the six Taft delegates are admitted be- cause they do not.
 In California the action of the committee was perhaps not morally worse than hitherto but it was just a little more fragrant. The progressiVes of California had control of the leg islature and the party machinery and the temptation was very strong to take the delegates without risking a primary. Governor Johnson and agreed that we should be true to our principles and give the people a chance to vote at primary and for whom they wanted Every reaction = ary paper in the state was pleading for such law because they hoped to win under it.
