[ H[ ENTERS RAGE
PROGRESSIVE REPUBLICANS IN
WASHINGTON AROUSED OVER
EFFORT TO START BOOM.
FORMER PRESIDENT SAID
TO SEEK MEDICATION
Friends Also Say He Was Much Mis-
understood Person-Prosressive Wing
Of Party Not United on Candidate
But Know They Will Not Support
Taft-Fairbanks Active.
Especial Correspondence

Washington, Feb. 2S.-Progressive
republicans in congress are not little
stirred up over stories which have been
going the rounds of late that former
President William II. Taft is being
talked of for the republican nomination
backed him in 1912.
They do not think these stories have
been circulated by accident and they
see back of them a serious purpose on
the part of some republican leaders to
get Mr.. Taft renominated. 1t is said
some of the men who supported him
in 1912 think he oug' ( to be indicated
and it is also being urged that Mr.. Taft
was much misunderstood person.
Obstacles Already.
1t is as plain as day that the move
ment to nominate Mr.. Taft. if the men
who are talking it are serious in trying
TO put it over, will not get far until it
strikes big obstacles. Progressive re-
publicans at the capitol are saying in
fat terms that If the old guard takes
up with Mr.. Taft there will be another
split in the republican party like unto
the one of 1912. They believe that if
Taft should run. or allow his name to
be used. and should threaten TO get the
nomination, Roosevelt would run and
then 1912 conditions would ha repro
duced to n large extent, with the demo-
Gratis again winning.
The progressive republicans in con-
gress are not particularly united over
the question of whom they want for
the republican candidate in 1916. But
they are united TO the extent that they
say the next nominee must be n man
sufficiently progressive TO command
the support of the rank and file of pro-
gressive republicans. They declare
that the idea which prevails in some
quarters that the old guard element of
the rarity can put up anyone II pleases
and defeat the democrats in the cleo
ton is mistake.
Fairbanks Also Active.
Former Vice President Fairbanks is
credited here with much activity. siT.
Fairbanks has always been aligned with
the old guard and the talk of his boom
is viewed with suspicion by the pro-
gressivs republicans. A great deal of
talk about "favorite son" movements is
current. Those who want a progress
sive republican to lead the ticket are
searching these movements to find out
whether back Of them is any scheme TO
deliver delegates to an old guard re-
publican II the proper time.
Unless there is an extra session Of
con ress il is the view of most poll
ticians here that the republican presi-
Dental situation Will no. shape up I'M
I'll next winter. when the regular Ses-
sion is or. Should an extra session be
held :, good deal of presidential politics
IS likely to develop.
