narrowly escaped defeat. Before
that the present Secretary of War
Weeks failed of reelection as Sen
ator, losing to Mr.. Walsh.
Senator La Toilette will neither
write the Republican platform nor
name the Republican nominees
next year. He Is much more likely
to read himself out of the party
than to dominate 1t. Even If he
does not affiliate himself with
third party movement. such
movement looks probable in the
West. Will a third party impose
its program on the Democracy and
lie merged in the latter, as Popu-
ism virtually did and was in 1896?
Or will the third party, nominating
La Toilette or Henry Ford, strive
to make the grade to the Whit
House under its own power?
The decision probably lies with
the Democracy's managers more
particularly with the Southern
Senators and Representatives.
Unless they consent to accept the
Western radical projects, they
scarcely can expect 70 absorb the
Western radical strength. And
Mr.. La Toilette, might be, too tough

Perhaps that possibility. an en-
