Iri the main we found - virtual) agreement with diagnosis which we- had previously attempted, ?"s(ewhat timorously. George Ade has described himmslf as a political dirigible,- bemg- far rupVin the air politically., This very vell de scribes our' condition, as we have now Bnd then hazarded a. forecast -of what a . party, r with . Roosevelt: and Supreme court 'justice, and any num ber .of ' more or less iatorite sons on its nanas, is going to co. t "t: : s Th4 point at which we find ourseves in- agremeent with .other diagnosti plans, is that the Highes drift must be regarded' as the .. predominant sympton. This is .1 especially . true since the holding of the primaries in Oregon." V The Rdosevelt; forces thre and -the supporters, of Senator Cum mins, found themselves upon common ground in the effort to ' keep down the- Hughes vote. . In. this effort they were peculiarly unsuccessful;, it was a Hughes event Editorially' the some times' esteemed.

While it is quite generally - agreed that majority of Jthe delegates, a decided majority, wiH favor Justice Hughs when the convention, is called tp ' ordr : some of ' the 'political "strate. gists, of fihe ;pressV suspect that the Hughs forces will suffer from bad management, or the lack, of manage ment; There is fhe admission, on the other hand, that the Highes manage ment, will include Frank ZHM i Hitch 5ock. ' ls it suspected that' Mr. Hitch cock has lost ground to some extent of later years, . that he has not the fol lowing' from the South or. other see- ievliJRei&ttok it is realized that party, leaders, who long since master ed convention, proceedure hv,' all its details, ' Therefore all the talent, the experts m the ' handling i of : conven tions,' especialy,as delicate, and diffi cult situations, arise, . wil'not 'all be on the side of Mr Roosevelt and the favorite " sons. . v . . ; : While the facts and the figures do not, apparently, gie Mr." Roosevelt a chance, the betting! fraternity do not take this view of lit. Some of the New York papers have discovered that considerable money is being wagered that it will be a Roosevelt convention. In-arriving at this conclusion there is little ' attempt to count noses, or delegates. What the Roosevelt pro tagonists are figuring on,' it seems is the ultimate elimination of " Mr. Jus tice Hughes, through- a combination of the Roosevelt and the favorite son forces. .
