show their dsapproval this fall by elect
ing Republicans in many districts now
represented by Democrats"
THE American people have confidence
in President Wilson" said Chairman Do
remus OF the Democratic committee. They
will in the coming elections return a
Democratic House to support him In his
constructive policies Of progress and re-
form"
"Our reports indicate that our delega-
tion in the next Congress will be doubled"
said Chairman Hinebaugh of the Bull
Moose party. Hundreds OF Progressives
will be elected TO State and county offices
and our organization will then build from
the bottom upward. Since 1910 the Re-
publican party has lost 1875 members from
the House. II Is conceded by all who
know the facts that the Republicans are
bound 10 lose five Senators in the coming

ton Is on and revolutions never go back

lowback into his hand.
Say, bo we may get in awful bad over
this Think 1t over" he said.

WASHINGTON, May 24.--tt IL highly

shortly begin a similar investigation Of

Interstate Commerce Committee favors
going deeply into the story OF tho flnanc.
ing Of the Rock Island. on the other

campaign of inquiry into all the railways
Of the United States.

for more lie is anxious TO delve into the
fiscal affairs ~ the Rock Island at once
and TO make OF that only the beginning
OF very general campaign. The national
Administration Is not. however. favorably
disposed toward any further undertaking
in the fields OF railway finance.
Attorney General McReynolds Is known
to oppose further Investigations before
the Interstate Commerce Commission.
He feels that to proceed with other rail-
way officials along the lines employed
IN the examination OF Charles $. Mellen
too great an opportunity for the admission
of testimony which would nullify the
right OF the Department Of Justice TO pro-
coed crimnally would be afforded. He. too

To- have received the sympathetic attention
OF the President, and regardless OF the

crack" at his old Republican enemies.
The Republicans who are trying to per-
suade Mr.. Roosevelt to return to the fold
are animated by desire to win. As things
are now drifting they are OF tho opinion
that Roosevelt Is the only man who can
bring back to the party the great army
OF Republicans that either refused or
failed TO vote the ticket In 1912.
With the party reunited the Republi-
cans who are Identified with this get
together movement are convinced that
the Democratic candidate In 1916 can be
beaten.
Republican leaders asserted confidently
that IL anything approaching fusion with
the Progressive party can be effected this
year the opposition will capture the House
in November and the Presidency two years
later.
Republican leaders will try to impress
upon Mr.. Roosevelt the declining strength
or the Progressive party. He will be

that the third party is rapidly disappear

make his camp within the Republican
party for such reforms In government as

just what course Mr.. Roosevelt intends to
pursue. Candidates have been nominated
In Pennsylvania and the campaign there

Democratic hope of success In Pennsyl-

a militant fight by the Progressives, with
Mr. Roosevelt at the forefront OF IL.
While Republican leaders are carrying
on a desperate Irritation with the former
President Progress!ves are trying to hold
him In line in that party If Mr.. Roose-
welt returns TO the Republican party or
consents to fusion with that party he will
be opposed by such men as Victor Muir

Mr. Pirchot and many other ultra Pro-

the other hand they argue that most OF
the progressive Republican leaders will
accept him.
