Chicago. une lone real fash OF

has broken through the mirage and
the mystery Of the Republican Ma.

Failing in this Messrs. Smaot. Crane.

In other words, the Old Guard,
weakened by the illness and absence
of strong headed stalwarts, even di-
vided among themselves, are forming
hollow square with I.owden in the
center
With their faces to the foe-and
there is something admirable in the
pluck CT these harassed--they plan
one last night, knowing that the odds
are five to one against them. They
plan one ultimate battle, and then. II
it must be. they will give in and
labor meekly with the Liberals and.
the middle of the raiders toward tho
selection Of candidate who can win.
The Old Guard prays for Lowden
or darkness. If the excellent Gov
ernor of Illinois must be beaten to
his knees, must collapse under the
burden of that Missouri dough bag,
must, in short, be eliminated because
of the shuddering fear of what tho
Democrats would say from stump to
stump about Pullman car porters and
Pullman passes to the White House.,
then darkness--a short recess for con
! ference and whispering would bo
welcomed.
Out of that might come something
valuable to the conservatives, for il
they cant get the whole loaf they
will take slice. That proposed
nominating committee of twenty, an
unheard of thing in Republican con-
yentions. planned as it is, has its op.
portunities for such subtle ones as
Senator Smoot of Utah and Murray
Crane of Back Bay, not to speak Of
the unctuous Watson.
However, the idea is to name the
committee sincerely and representa-.
lively and to abide honestly by its do
cision-if it can reach decision.
