Hughes. Borah and Root received

Hughes, Borah and Root received
votes from every state polled, the SOL
idly democratic states of the south
and the states of Arizona, Nevada and
New Mexico being omitted from the
poll. Burton and Cummins each re-
ceived votes from 81 states, Weeks
from ID and Sherman from one, his
own state of Illinois. Several Illinois
veterans said they would have voted
for Senator Sherman but for a recent
attack made by the senator on Colonel
Roosevelt's European war u~tterances.
Every Illinois veteran canvassed con-
coded a solid state delegation to Sher-
A few veterans, as will be observed,
stated no second choice.
A noticeable feature of the canvass
was that the Root support came large
ly from the lawyer and banker type of
men, while the Weeks following was
made up of bankers, manufacturers
and lawyers in most part.
Former Vice President Fairbanks
was not named as the choice of a sin
gle veteran.

Two hundred and fifty-fve veterans
said they would support any republi-
can candidate for president and would
express no preference as between can

Only. five possible candidates as

Justice Charles E. Hughes, Senator
William E. Borah, former Senator
Theodore E. Burton, Senator Albert B.
Cummins and former Senator Elihu
Root, other candidates most frequent
ly mentioned merely taking places in
the favorite son class.
Senator John w. Weeks, however, is
more than a favorite son Of his own
state of Massachusetts because
strength was indicated for him in all
New England states except Maine, but
his following outside New England
appears to be limited to intimate
business acquaintance and former
residents of Massachusetts, now resid-
