The same clement of the g. o. p. which nominated Taft in 1912 have nominated Hughes in 1916. That is b> say the same ele.rw.mt had con trol of the conventions. This ele ment nail |M>w»*r tn either nominate or reject Mr. Hughes. Mr. Root, of New York, would have been nominated instead of Judge Hughes if his election had been probable Rut progressive* would not support Root and it was thought they would support Hugh«!*. Anything to beat Wilson was the slogan and Judge Hughe« was thought tn N* the man to do the beating. When Mr. Roosevelt led the revolt from the republican convention in 1912. he was followed by all or nearly all republicans, who refused to accept their political pabulum longer from such leaders and politi cal Ixmsi-s a* P«*nroae. Hames. Root. Fairbanks and others, aa represent ing stand|>at republicanism. They resented th«* domination of the W all street barons and tariff benefi- ciaru-s. who were then and are now. represented by the aforenwntioned leaders. Is it reasonable to suppoae that the men who severed their allegiance from th«**«* bosses and machine politicians four years ago. will now bow their heads, stick their tails be tween their legs and scuttle back under the Imnner of the l«*aders whom Mr. Rooaevcll denounced aa thieve* and malefactors, even if he (Roosevelt) has accepted the dish of crow and has pronounced it good? When the party split of four years ago occurred, we amume that principle was the cause. That party hail promised to reduce the tariff and Mr. Taft won hi* election on that promise, The promine whs not made good and, as a result. Mr. Wilson was elected four years later and under a like promise. The tariff has liven reduce*! aa promised by the Wilson administration. Now these pragressiv«* are asked to sup port Judge Hughes who, impliedly promises to restoie the tariff rates which maintained under Mr. Taft. Are our progressive friends mere puppets to be traded ami traffics«! aa a tmnd of cattle? Surely not It simply was the basis of their action in 1912, they surety are not party slaves four years later. The Tribune suspects that a vgat majority of progressives, like Hon. Victor Murdock, of Kansas, one of the great men of that now defunct party, are on the fence They do not know just where they are at.
