Along this line the Philadelphia Press

miles from the old yards, and the rail-

THE OUTLOOK FOR 1916.

The meeting of the Republican Ma
tional Committee last week in prepar-
ing for the next annual convention
has served to indicate pretty plainly,
as regards the consensus Of the in
formal utterances of its members, the
following conditions in their party:
First-That there is no general
drift of sentiment thus far in favor
of any one candidate for the presiden-
tial nomination.
Second-That there is a disposition
on all sides of the party to weigh out
and size up every man in the field and
to keep the field wide open for the
next six months.
Third-That a restoration of an ad-
equate protection tariff and arraign-
ment of the Wilson administration as
incompetent, Gre the vital issues which
everywhere find increasing favor.
FouItn-That a policy of concilia-
ton toward all Bull Moosers OF 1917
who will return to the party on these
grounds is wise, and in fact is neces-
sary to success at the polls.
There is one problem in the situa-
ton which did not receive public at
tention in the discussions, but which
is uppermost in the mind of every Re
publican who speculates on the chanc-

Colonel Roosevelt follows Justice

ing into the Colonel's action Our
guess is that the Colonel is more anx-
ious to see Wilson beaten than to ac-
complish anything else in 1916 and
that his withdrawal of his name in
Nebraska means only that he has in
tention of cumming the game.
