BORAH SENTIMENT
CO TINUESTOGROW
Idahoan Considered Strong
Man for Nomination, Since
.L Refusal of Hughes.
SUPPORT IS PROMISED
Two Klcmeuts In Republican Party
AVould Be Satisfied "With Re
sult, Despite Senator's De
y nlal He Is In Race
ORkJCJONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash
ington, May 8. The refusal of Justice
Hughes, of the United States Supreme
Court, to become a candidate for the
Republican presidential nomination or
to permit the use of his name in, that
connection is aeeepea by his friends as
having been made in good faith. Nor did
the announcement, nccasion surprise.
Justice Hughes cannot put a stop to
mention of his name, nor can, he
prevent the presentation of his name
to the next Republican National con
vention,' if any eta to sees fit to put
him forward. At the same time, men
who know Justice Hushes welt be
lieve he Is In a frame of mind to de
cline the nomination, if it should be
tendered, and therefore they think any
further effort to develop Hughes senti
ment would be unavailing;.
1'riends Sajr He AVould Decline. -
That any man should decline the
presidential nomination at the hands
of one of the two blK parties may
he Incomprehensible. but friends of
Justice Hushes assert that he would
do that very thins it he should be
nominated against his will.
Tn the past month or two there has
been a growing sentiment tn favor of
Justice Hughes, based on his popu
larity as Governor of New York and
on the fact that he is the type of man
who could command support from both
factions of the Republican party. His
announcement followed immediately on
the declaration in Washington of Gov
ernor Hatfield, of West Virginia, that
he favored Hughes' nomination in 1916.
tJovernor Hatfield characterized Justice
Hughes as the "symbol of strength and
unity," and predicted that Hughes,
once nominated, could be elected. "If
the party wants to nominate Justice
Hughes, It can do it,'' declared the
Governor. "Only the man himself
could prevent it from being done." The
next day Justice Hughes made hts
announcement.
With Justice Hughes out of the
reckoning. Republicans who have been
looking for a compromise candidate
have renewed their search. The first
name considered, in most instances. Is
tliat of Senator Borah, of Idaho, who
Is still regarded as much of a factor
in 'Republican presidential politics,
notwithstanding his assertion that he
is not seeking the- nomination.
Borah on Middle Ground.
Senator Borah occupies a middle
rround between Root and Weeks on
the one hand and CuVnmlns and Roose
velt on the other. Root and Weeks
re regarded by the progressive wing
:of the party as having been too promi
nently identified with the "stand-pat"
faction. in the past, while Cummins is
frowned on for his radical views and
because he voted for Roosevelt In 1912,
though refusing to leave the Republi
can party, and the Colonel, of course,
is not at all acceptable to a large
element of the party that refused to
support him three years ago.
The Idaho Senator is greatly admired
by all four of the possibilities named,
and if he should be nominated he would
have the support of all of them. Root.
Weeks, Roosevelt and Cummins must
be regarded, each of them, as repre
sentative Republicans. Each repre
sents an element in the party; each has
his own followers and admirers, and
each would give Borah whole-hearted
support. The time is not ripe for
these men to speak publicly on the
fubject of the Republican nomination,
but each one of the four has been in
terrogated privately on the possibility
of Senator Borah's being the nominee,
and it is known that each of these
leaders considers the Idaho man a
strong possibility.
All Desire Republican Success.
Senator Cummins, of course, Is a
candidate himself; Senator Weeks is
a candidate: ex-Senator Root and Colo
nel Roosevelt are not candidates, but
are being strongly urged by their re
spective supporters for presidential
honors. If Cummins cannot land the
nomination for himself. 'Borah un
doubtedly would be his second choice;
Weeks probably would prefer some
one else to Borah, but he believes the
Idaho Senator must bo rated among
the strongest men to be reckoned with
at the next Republican National con
vention, and if the tide should turn
in Borah's direction. Senator Weeks
would join the precession.
Cummins, Root, Roosevelt and Weeks
want Republican victory In 1916. Their
opinions differ as to who would be
the strongest candidate to name but
as the situation develops it is predicted
that these men, in the last analysis,
will eliminate themselves if by so
doing they can strengthen the Repub
lican ticket.
