porters are becoming greatly alarmed at
the dally growing strength of. the Idea
that he ennnot possibly ba fleeted..
There la no doubt but that the Will lose
at least Bo per cent of the colored vote,
and many assert over 0 per cent. He
will undoubtedly have the' united oppo
sition of the labor vote. Either of these
conditions would be euftlcient to de-
feat blm, and people who are familiar
with the stiuatlon In Ohio say that It
Is absolutely Impossible for him to
carry his own state In the November
election. . .- . s ,
"In my opinion, from what I learned
In Washington. I do not believe that
Taft e.un carrv Ohio. Indiana. New York
or Wisconsin, and there Is grave doubt
aa to his ability to carry New Jersey .
and Connecticut, and some doubt of bis .
carrying Massachusetts. A deep feeling
of resentment -is dally increasing in
strength against Taft, on account of th
f resident's trying o force hi nomlna- ;
Ion on the country.. Thus far this re- .
sentment Is against Taft only, but It
has weakened the president's ability and
Influence as far aa helping another. ,
while apparently It ha not weakened
his own vote-getting power for himself.
A number of shrewd politicians opposed
to Roosevelt's succeeding himself are -now
beginning to believe that he must
succeed himself that Taft must b
eliminated, and Roosevelt must be sub
stltuted. Roosevelt is -naturally tho
second choice of the Fairbanks people.
If Fairbanks cannot get It, he will want
