Entitled to One More "Think."
Far be lt from me to intimate even
that either of these distinguished Clalm
erB ia exceeding the fast speed limit. I
can only aay. in my opinion. they think
they have this number of votes. but, a:
the reaults will show. both of them will
be entitled to one more long. concen
trated, cohaalve thlnk apiece on Tuesday
or some following day. Btlll, II is well
for them to keep thinking to the bitter
end. The little detail that the sum 0.
their thoughts exceede the sum of the
delegates is of no consequen. e. Theea
_re etrange times. brethren. and it may
bl they have arrangci to pul in a hun?

It certainly would bo annoyin*? to sen

Great deeda ware fmmlnent That waa

there muat be ? riot. Nothing alaa

be Benator Dlxon'a tcmper. or the eolo*

ity. bul it uui.t bo something. When
everybody aaya this convention li to be
opened with ? ruall for the police re
serves instead of thf? usual fnvocatlon
what everybody say? must be *o.
Btill, there ia a faint glimmer of hope.
A long experience has tatlght me that
the advertised riot rarely comes off. It
fs barely possible that. desplte th- <lire
predktions of troubla from the start,
this will happen. Mr. Ro.ewater. as
chairman of the Republlean National
.''ommittee, wlll order the roll to be
cailed. the temporary roll. aa evolved by
the fommittee. There will be n protost
from th? floor. and the Rooaevelt floor
leader. ".overnor Hadley, wlll offer as a
BubatltUte a roll that flts in with the
Rooaf* elt ideas of what a temporary- roll
for *hls convention should be.
Then there wlll be a long parliamen
tary wrangl" and an unlimited talkfest,
that mav get exclted, but wlll hardly be
deadl; p.nd finally the convention will
vote one way or another. and the at?
tempt wfll he made to Inducl Blr. Root
into hia k*?ynote nositlon.
lf is barelv po-sible that the Thlrd
commandment v.iil suffer more fractures
than the heada or arm*. and it may be
blckering wfH ba mor* ennversational
than critlcal.
But lhe prudent managers of the con?
vention ha\e provided for every con
tingency, save tho hlfhly Important one
of gettlng car muffl for tha patient dele
gatea wbo must sit and ijaten to the
flow of talk. 'If.' say the Tafi men.
Rooseveltera attempt to strong arm
this convention they will find that we
have made preparation* to meet that
contfn**ency or any othar that may mi
aue." And following this comea the stern
declaration of the Roosevelt peopie thit
they wlll 'have thejr rigrits.'
Ca'ls Situation a Stsnd-off.
Thw about a stand-off The
Tafters ara prepared and the ftooo*.
vaHara are portentoua. Petwfe*-n the
two. the chance? are there will be a rtgh*
.llvely aeaaion of tha convention, but, al
ihough hazardinz.ls partlCularly perilous
and fraught wlth great danger at this
nm*-. I hazard the pra-diotion. neverth*'
le68. there will be but a mOdiCtim Of
bloodahad and not enough danfferougly
wounded to keep th*5 ambulancea nusy.
It is quite true an obatreparoua dHegate
or two may be thrown from th*- hall, but
care wfll be taken to throw th*m on 'he
aofteal parl of tba street. so the damnge
to hot]n atraat and delegate ma; be re?
duced to a minimurn.
So much for that. As for the general
situation. it has not rhanged alnce there
was a situation Taft and Roosevelt
each have a number "f votes. but nejther
