Col. FRANK TYREE, former U

and onetime body guard of Presi-
dent Roosevelt, is being a.sailed
for his alleged treachery to the
Progressives, in declaring his fealty
to the Republican party. Mr..
Tyree occupies the position of
ninety per cent. of the Progressive
vote of 1912. He voted for Col.
Roosevelt, and supported him for
the presidency out of respect to =
personal choice, and with no thought
of leaving the Republican party
The attacks on him are to be found
In the w atson press which bitterly
assails those Roosevelt voters of
1912, who in 1914 refuse to be
made mere catspaws to pull the
Watsonian chestnuts out of the fire.
