siastically and aggressively for
the Colonel. Four of the others,
Waterman, Carlson, Roof and
Wells, are believed to be open
minded in the matter and quite
willing to accept Mr.. Roosevelt
if it shall seem best, while the
other two, McCreary and Pen
rose, are believed to sympathize
with the New York banker who
is reported in Golfers as sayin &
II am for Root, but if he can t
get it my second choice is Roose
velt--dam him." This attitude
of the delegates is believed to
quite fairly represent the senti-
ment of the republican voters
of the state, as every straw vote
taken, under great variety of
conditions, has shown a hand
some majority for the man from
Oyster Bay.
Quite a contest is now on for
the Craftsmanship of the delega
ton. Mr.. Schuyler, Gov. Carl
son and Fred Roof would each
like it. The two other impor-
tant places on the delegation
are the memberships on the
credentials and resolutions com
mitties. 1t appears to be gen
orally conceded that Mr.. Ste
venson is especially qualified
for the first and Mr.. Waterman
for the second of these positions
And speaking of Mr.. Waterman
an interesting piece of gossip
is floating around the State
House to the effect that an ar
rangement has been entered in
to between him and Governor
Carlson according to which Mr..
Watrrman will use all his in
fluence to secure the re-nomi-
nation and reelection of the
Governor this year to the posi-
ton he now holds, and to the
position of Congressman for the
Second district in 1918, and to
succeed Thomas as Senator in
1920, in return for which the
Governor will use all his influ-
ence to secure Senator Shafoth' 5
place for Waterman in 1918.
There is a great difference of
Ippiuicn as to whether or not
Governor Carlsons success in
winning a place on the Chicago
delegation has improved his
chances of n e.nomination.
His friends think it has and pre-
fess to regard the vote for Mr..
Grubb rs representing the ex'
treme strength of the opposi'
ton. and prophesy that thi,
will dwindle away to a negligi.
BILE quantity by the time the
State Assembly meets in Aug,
ust.
On the other hand the friends
of Mr.. Stocker appear elated o.
yer the fact that delegates from
twenty-four counties went on
record as unwilling TO grant
the Governor the small boon of
representing his state at a Ma
tionnl Convention. They point
out that Denver, the largest
county in the state by far, is ab
solutely against him, and they
claim that strong-arm methods
were used mt Pueblo that have
left sores and bruises that will
be heard from later on.
II is also rumored that Mr..
Nicholson has definitely con-
cluded to keep out of the Gu.
bernatorial race. leaving the
contest to the two already en-
tered.
Just what result, il any, the
election Of Mr.. Speer will have
on this contest is hard to deter
mine. The sponsors for the
Booth ticket were largely the
