La Toilette Thinks that Re.
dictionary Republican Will
Be Beaten.
PROGRESSIVES NOT DEAD
Senator Says President Might Win
Should Times Improve-Has Com
promised Entirely Too Much.

Senator La Toilette, Of Wisconsin, who
returned yesterday from trip through
out the Middle West and several North
western States. expressed the opinion that
President Wilson had lost some ground
politically. But he intimated that the
President would get it back before the
next election. He also warned the Re-
publicans against the program for a re-
dictionary candidate and platform now
under way and limited at third party
movement. il the reactionary program is
persisted in.
Senator La Toilette said that he had not
entered into a deal with President Wilson
by which he was to receive a Democratic
Endorsement and declared that he did not
need the Presidents support in his fight
The Senator intimated that he was ready
for the fray whenever 1t started.
Has Compounded Too Much.
1T doesn't mean that President Wilson
will not be strong again a year from
next fall he said. Nobody can tell
about that. Prosperous times would
work a great change, probably. Remem-
Der what 1t did for Taft? He didn't
think he'd get vote in Wisconsin some
months prior to the election, but along
came a period of better times and he
got several.
President Wilson's effort to undo the
work done for twenty-five or thirty years
In behalf of special business interests
naturally has resulted in bad times 1t
is terrific job that has to be done. and
the man that accomplishes 1t ought
hardly 10 expect to serve more than one
term.
THE trouble with President Wilson in
this connection is that he has shown
disposition to compromise. to try to help
business However, he has done a great
deal more already than either Taft or
Roosevelt"
PrORressivism Is Not Dead.
Politicians who think Progrcssivism is
dead are mistaken. said the Wisconsin
Senator. There is as much Progressive
ism as there ever was" he said. and
they'll find II out if they carry through
their program of nominating the worst
hardshell Republican they can find. The
result will be as wide a division as there
was last time-either before or after the
nomination was made"
