HAS FORD BEATEN ROOSEVELT

Until the Nebraska primaries were
held, the World believed that Roose-
welt would be nominated for presi-
dent by the republican national con-
vention. We are not SO sure now.
Henry Ford's victory in the repub-
lican primaries in Nebraska, follow
Ing his victory In the republican pri-
maries in Michigan, is body-blow
to the Roosevelt candidacy. II shows
that, entirely apart from the regular
republican opposition to Roosevelt,
there are tens Of thousands Of rank.
and.flle republicans in the Middle
West who are irrevocably opposed to
his jingoism. his militarism, his i'm.
perialism and his pinchbeck imita-
tons OF the kaiser.
With this vote against him Roose-
welt is not worth much to the repub-
lican managers. They would be will
ing enough to deal with him II they
thought he could help the ticket. but
they are decidedly averse to bargain
ing for additional political liabilities.
Roosevelt's part in the negotia-
tions is to prove that the republicans
want him. The Nebraska and Mich
ipan nrimaries show that he has stub
bed his toe again. Unless he can man
age to recover the trenches that the
Ford vote now occupies. We should
not give much for his chances at Chi
cago.-New York World.

While the gubernatorial campaign III
PENNSYLVANIA is as yet in its prellm-

know are certain that Congressman
Temple will be one Of the biggest fac
tors in the race.
Elected as he was during the Fro

ticket by an exceptionally large ma
iority. Dr. Temple is looked upon AS
one of the strongest possibilities IN

contender once he determines to enter
the race for the executive office Of the

While no formal announcement has
been made. in fact, no tentative an

that Congressman Temple is on the
