TEST ROOSEVELT STRENGTH.
An Out -and-0ut Contest Between Colonel
and Cummins in Montana.

Washington, March 30.--The stage is
set for fairly good test of western
Roosevelt sentiment through the action
of Senator Sherman Of Illinois yesterday
in telegraphing to the state authorities
| of Montana a request to remove his name
from the primary ballot The names of
all the favorite-son candidates for presi-
dent. including Senator John w Weeks
Of Massachusetts had been placed on the
ballot, but Senator Albert r. Cummins
Iof Iowa had made the only graphic cam.
paign in the state and probably was
leading the other regular Republican rae
ers. 1t developed, however, that former
United States Senator Joseph NJ Dixon
Roosevelts campaign manager in 1912,
would run for delegate-at large as
Roosevelt man. This announcement
brought on a straight issue over Roose-
welt, as Roosevelt obviously would win
the state easily If the opposition was
divided, all the Republicans except Cum
minis withdrew. The primaries win be
held April 81, and unless Roosevelt in
terferes the issue will be drawn sduarely
between Cummins and the colonel as the
preference of the state. Senator Cum.
minis is not typical Old Guard candi-
date, as he voted for Roosevelt in 1912
and frequently votes with the Democrats
in the Senate, nevertheless the situation
is such that the anti Roosevelt men in
Montana viii be compelled to make their
fight with him.

Final Vote on Immigra-

for the House measure. Senator Cham
berlain succeeded in getting the measure
made the unfinished business. 1t will be
kept before the body until it is acted on
The broadcast and most momentous
discussion and consideration of prepared
ness on land, which has been heard in
Congress since the Civil war is in pros
pect in the Senate. The House, it is
true, gave considerable time TO the army
bill, but its rigid rules prevented any
chance to thoroughly overhaul the meas
ure as it came from the committee. In
the Senate not only is thorough discus
sion promised, but amendments OF far
reaching Importance will be given consid-
Grafton.
One of the questions to be threshed
out is government manufacture of war
materials. Another is vocational train
ing in the army. Senator Hoke Smith
intends to urge such training with the
utmost vigor. The subject of federal
volunteer force also will cause lively con-
troversy. The National Guard is oppos-
ing it on the ground that it is the con-
tinental army scheme in disguise.
The bill provides for a standing army
of approximately 10000, an increase of
about 10000 over the total proposed in
the House measure; federal volunteer
force with a maximum strength of POO
900, and a federalized National Guard of
