advantage Of us. But there is room

of the London government Is the police

but is under the direction of cabinet

| In speaking Of Washington, he said:
While the government of Washington
is possibly very efficient under the Dis

stitute the municipal government and

the stiuson propaganda. 1t is said.
Republicans more solidiy for Whitman
for a second term than they were dis
posed to be a short time ago.
In that way the Federal crowd may
have unconsciously contributed to

In the Constitutional convention. but
outside Of the convention could do little.

and complex. There are ross-currentd

ton II New York Republicans are to
exert a commensurate influence in the
next national convention, 1t is believed
the leaders in both factions will work
to avert an open rupture either on the
governorship or any other question. but
1t is intimated Root will do we'll not to
strain to greatly the loyalty Of the
organization forces. which are prepared
to recognize his leadership up to . cer-
tain point.
The explanation generally accepted as
accounting for the support of Stimson
for governor next year by Root and
his Federal crowd" associates is that
1t is founded In a desire to conciliate
Roosevelt. who brought about Stimson's 8
nomination in 1910, and who was op-
posed to Whitman last year and pre-
sumably would again oppose him. The
Barnes crowd. needless to say. are not
hot for the conciliato Of the colonel.
