IT'S HAPPENED BEFORE

Wne;aer any prophetic implica- tions attach to the fact or not, it is interesting to note that the cen tral Republican question, ito in- struct or not to instruct" is not new to politics.
 Tt would be wiser not to ln- struct delegates.S argued a promin- ent old-line political leader on an- other occasion. The convention should be unfettered It should be prepared to do what is best for party and country in the immediate circumstances which confront it. / "The plan (of uninstructed dele gates) would disfranchise the great body of voters" replied another, and would enable handful of in- dividuals to handpick candidate by a process of trade and barter. 2
 The date of these utterances was February, 1892 The party referred to was the Democratic Party.
 The gentleman advocating unin- structed delegations was ue t Shouse, then Chairman of the Democratic National Executive Com mittee,5 now President of the Lib erty League. sti@s ot sile The gentleman who disagreed with him was Franklin D. Roose- velt then Governor of New York, now President of the United States.

HOW IT MAY GO

!
 There is one excep6ion--poSsibly two. The definite exception is Sen-s ator Borah The possible exception is Colonel Knox s8spl as st.ls
 Knox himself refrains from dis cussing the political wisdom of choosing uninstructed delegates, but i his adherents are at work in many States for delegates instructed for Knox. He alone, aside from Borah, is showing a readiness to go into the primaries and fight it out. M
 Borah's opposition to the unin- structed-delegate program is open and direct. He pronounces. it a scheme to disfranchise the common voters, and permit the old guard to make it's own choice, for it's own purposes, in a backroom caucus. Thus do events appear to ar- range themselves, on the basis of the present circumstances, for three successive waves of action.
 First comes the initial heat be- tween Borah and Knox, each seek ing to line up enough delegates to nominate him. q
 If these two are stopped, or if they stop each other in the conven- tion, the next step seemingly will be to try out Landon, or possibly Hoover.
 Finally, if neither of these can make the grade. the convention must turn to the dark horses. If it is of mind to select a candidate

It now is possible to get some what clearer view of the Republi- can situation, although many ob- scurities persist.
 The most prominent feature of the picture is the effort of a pow erful group of old-line leaders to prevent any foreclosures of the Presidential nomination in advance of the convention. i
 This effort is focused principally in the East and Midwest. The plaI is to keep the convention balance of power in the hands of size able bloc of delegations pledged tc no candidate. That would make il possible to settle the matter on the ground. after a final canvass of the situation.
 To this movement adhere many of the recognized leaders of the ole guard. Apparently no objection is raised by the friends of most of the candidates. G
 Whether Herbert Hoover is to be a candidate or not, his associates appear to believe that his best bet is to let the nomination question remain open. The supporters of Governor Landon manifestly are seeking to keep him as much in the dark horse" class as possible and to avoid arousing resentment by entering primary contests.
 Naturally, the friends of such other dark horse candidates as Senator Vandenberg, and Senator Dickinson interpose no opposition A dead-locked convention, with a
