It is pointed out that the Roosev?
movement has proved a disappointmei
to all who promoted it; thot Instead i
Colonel Roosevelt's announcement th
he would accept the nomination bell
followed by a wave of enthusiast
sweeping the country like a prairie ttr
ir has had the wholly unexpected resu
of uniting hundreds of thousands of R
publicans ln*-hind President Taft. AI?
that, even in a country which was i?
Rarded as unquestionably insurgent, a:
for instance, Iowa and Colorado. Mi
Taft Is se?*uring the delegates to the nu
tional ?'onvention.
Now Turn to Justice Hughe?.
Those who contend that th?- time ha
come to drop Colonel Roosevelt are UTg
:n_- th? ?r ?associates to consider serlousl!
ihe ftdvtl ability of uniting their strengtl
behind Justice Hughes as th.- man wh?
could moat effectively disrupt the Taf
forese and command the support of boti
rsg-dars and Insurgents. So far as car
be learned, UM Justice has not been con?
sulted -regarding this proposition, and li
Is not desired that he should be by thos?
who urge this course. They argue that
no man could refuse an overwhelming
demand that he act as the standard
b?>arer <?f hif party, and that the uugtuuggi
preferences "f the man who Is dratted
d lead hi.- party to victory should not
be consulted?
They submit that Colonel Roosevelt
did not wish to bscoms a canilld.ite, and
that he consented to do so only from a
liigh tonos <>f duty after seven t.ov
rrnora had begged him to iea?i the Pram
greoslve movesaont Th ? ?-ontem? 'hat
11 Instsed of consulting the New Y_rg
justice un the subject tiny set them?
selves to work t<> arouse the sentiment
of R. | ?llilwans in liis behalf a .i-inat d
of suftlcii'ni proportions can be ?reated
to make it impossible for him to urge
his preference for the bench as a proper
?ground :?>r refusal.
??day Await Stumping Tour.
There Is, of ?ourse, opposition to the?
i roposttloa i?> drop colonel Roeoovett
until be has had a further trial. Man-.'
ot the Insurgents believe that when he
takes the stump in his own behalf bjg
will develop a strength with the ran*
and Hie of th<> party whi? h he has thin
far failed to a?-<julre, and these ??intend
that, even -idmitllng that Colonel Kooas
velt has thus far failed to meet the ex?
pectations of the -anything to 1-?at
Taft" faction, it b* too early to Judg?- of
his effe?tt\ eness <?li the stump.
Thev contend that white it might ha\ ?
been wise to drop the ex-President m>
mediately alter bis Columbus Speed?,
the campuign in his behalf has no.v
gone t?x> far to make such a step oppot ?
tune at this time, especially as Colon?!
R?.osevelt has yielded to the representa?
tions of Governor Stubhs that he mu-u
tour the country and plead with the
people for a nomination. Hud the ex
Presldent stood on his dignity and re?
fused to adopt this course it is sugg?-st-*<?
that might have afforded sufficient <-\
cuse for turning to some other candidat*.
But with- the arrangements for h.
stumping tour well under way, R Is be?
lieved, he should have an opportunity t?
demonstrate hla ability to promote his
own candida? y from the political ro.
trum.
Those who have come to believe that
Justice Hughes would prove the strong?
est candidate with whom to defeat "he
President at Chicago are persuaded th?:
nothing Colonel Roosevelt can now any
i Will offset the injury he has done him
