OREGON IAN NKWS BL'KKAU. Wash-rr.s-ton.
May . There In every present
Indication that the Republican Na
tional convention at Chlrago will b
an unusually lively and Interesting
gathering of the clans; u convention
that will be replete with stirring Inci
dents and one that Is likely to odown
in history on account of the shrewd
politics played by the leaders of the
different tactions. And unless there
Is a material chance in the political
situation before June 18. it will be
Impossible to tell In advance just what
ticket the Chicago convention will
nominate.
The present campaign has been on
of surprises and sudden changes. It
opened with a contest between Presi
dent Taft on the one side and Senator
la Follette on the other. The Presi
dent, from the first, has been In the
fight to win and never has ha doubted
that victory awaits him at Chicago.
Senator La Follette. on the other
hand, launched his candidacy with no
expectation of winning the nomina
tion for himself, but in the hope of
preventing the nomination of Mr.
Taft. lie has said this himself and It
must be accepted as the truth. Cer
tain it Is that the original slogan of
tie La. toilette crowd was "anything
to oe at Tart."
Koooevelt la Assailed.
Later, when Colonel Koosevelt en
tered the race and shoved La Follette
from the limelight, the La Follette
people were less concerned about
Taft than they were about Roosevelt,
and their attacks have been largely
centered on the Colonel, though they
have not undertaken to applaud Presi
dent Taft. It would appear that the
prime object of many of the La Fol
lette men now is to prevent the nom
ination of Roosevelt.
In this they will not.be alone, as
evident by talks with various sup
porters of the President, for today
there is a vast amount of discussion
In the Taft camp about making sure
the defeat of Koosevelt. no matter
whether that defeat means the nom
ination of Taft or a third candidate.
It Is not unfair to say that the slogan
of many of the most Influential Taft
men today is. "Anything to beat Roose
velt." And it is to be presumed, from
some of his recent speeches, that Pres
ident Taft himself is very much in
sympathy with this purpose.
The President naturally desires a re
nominatlon. but smarting under the
personal, and as ho points out. unfair
and nnjiist attacks of the' Colonel, he
will be most desirous of preventing
the nomination of Colonel Roosevelt.
even It It becomes necessary to bring
forward a third candidate to accom
plish this purpose.
Deadlock la Possibility.
Today President Taft Is far ahead
of Colonel Roosevelt In the number of
delegates he controls, but as has been
pointed out heretofore, neither Taft
nor Roosevelt will go to the Chicago
convention with enough Instructed
delegates to nominate. Taft, like
Roosevelt. Is counting confidently on
the support or many unlnstructed del
egates believed to be friendly, but it
may develop that neither candidate
-an safely count on those who are not
tied hand and foot by Instructions.
If the Chicago convention develops
into a two-sided scrap, one faction
striving as best It can to prevent the
renomlnation of President Taft. while
the other bends Its energies to make
impossible the nomination of Colonel
Koosevelt. it is not difficult to Imagine
that the Taft and Roosevelt forces
may become deadlocked and thus ne
c-essltate the nomination of a third
candidate. And the truth of the mat
ter Is that there are a number of In
fluential Republicans having the In
terest of the party at heart who would
welcome such a deadlock. They would
prefer to nominate someone other
than Taft or Koosevelt.
There is an element In both the Taft
and Roosevelt factions that hopes that
a third randtdate may be nominated,
and those who express this hope are
Karlsfled that a compromise candidate
can be found upon whom both factions
can and would unite. These Repub
lican politicians are aware that the
democratic party regards this year as
their own. They anticipate that the
Baltimore convention probably will
nominate a strong ticket on a pretty
sound platform, and therefore they
feel that It behooves the Republican
convention to go as far as possible In
the direction of wiping out factional
strife, so that the Republican party
can present a reunited front In the
Fall campaign. It cannot do this, they
fear, if either Taft or Roosevelt Is.

SEATTLE. Wash., May . (Special.)
Oranting permission to strike one
paragraph from the petition In quo
warranto proceedings for a recount of
the votes cast for Hiram C. Gill and
for George K. Cotterill for Mayor last
March, and denying all motions of Cot
terill's attorneys to make more defi
nite and certain. Judge R. B. Albertson
this morning set the case down for
trial on June 3.
The paragraph stricken contained the
allegation in the Gill complaint that
many election officers were Cotterill
men and were appointed because or
that fact. The court held that he could
pot go into a man's mind.
"This Is too serious a matter and is
of too much public Importance to be
passed lightly over or to stand too
strongly upon technicalities," said
Judge Albertson.
"I am not yet called upon to pass on
the sufficiency of the petition, but the
petitioner should not be hampered In
getting his facts before the court, and.
further, the public is entitled to a
speedy adjudication of this issue."
