{ J YOL. XCVIII REVOLT IN GG. 0, P, TERRITORY. Not One State Credited to LaFollette Normally Demoeratic—All Hereto- fore Aled Successful Republican Candidates, Republicans are whistling to keep up thelr courage as they survey the pro- portions of the LaFullette insurrection. A few weeks ago it was calinly assert- ed that LaFollette was not expected to carry more than one State. Only Wis- consin was conceded to him. Now it appears that if any of either Wisconsin or South even gets a chance to vote for Mr. Coolidge he will have to do it through the medium of “independent” electors. LaFollette followers have taken over the Republican party machinery in those two States. Not only that, but G. 0. P. bosses are fearful lest under the leadership of Brookhart and Norris a similar situation may in Iowa and Nebraska. This does look a little Hke hitting below the belt, but there is precedent, this is just what the Roosevelt followers &id in both South Dakota and California in 1912. Incidentally, what a commnetary on party which assumes to be national when its Presidential candidate can get representation on the ballot in fore Republican States only ‘by a sort to the petition method and use of the bel “Independent”! Every report from the West indi- cates that the LaFollette campaign is to be no one-State affair. Uublased observers are now giving the Wiscon- sin insurgent not only Wisconsin, but Minnesota and the Dakotas, with a chance of carrying Washington, Idaho, Wyoming, Michigan and lowa. In Ne- braska and Montana the Coolidge tick- et is apparently out of the running. lepublicans who do not deceive themselves may be pardoned for shud dering as they contemplate ion in their party. They are too level- headed to be deluded by the fatuous belief that this new movement will at- tract as many Democrats as Republi cans. Some former Democrats. course, will vote for the Wisconsin Senator, but the cold fact remains that every State he has a chance of carry- ing is an old-time Republican hold. No observer listed in the State which is normally On the other hand President ever sat in without having been assisted by electoral votes of States now regarded as safe for LaFollette. Since Abraham Lincoln headed the Republican ticket Wiseondn has faltered in its Republi- can allegiance but twice—and both times a Democrat was elected. During the same time Minnesota, Michigan and Iowa have given their electoral votes to every Republican candidate with one single exception, and on this one casion a Democrat became President North Dakota jikewise has assited in the election of every Republican Pres. ident since its admission to Statehood It failed the G. O. P. banner in 1912 and 1916—and every Hepublican has good reason to remember what happened in those years Aside from the favorite son votes it gave Bryan in 1886 and 1908, Nebraska has been Re publican since Statehood except when i twice alded in the election of Wil- son. South Dakota has falled the publicans but twice since Statehood and on one of these occasions a Dem- ocrat was elected. Montana and Ida ho contributed to ithe election of Roosevelt, Taft and Harding, and Wy- oming and Washington did the same. with their electoral votes. thrown in for McKinley in 1900 for good measure These records are poor meat for He publican hopes. Doubtless they make the present oc- cupant of the White House wonder if history is preparing to repeat, and if he is destined to duplicate Taft's race in 1912. citizen Dakota arise since hereto- re- the this divis- ol strong - has as column Democratic, or writer LaFollette yet one no tepublican the White House the of 1882, te A mam ———— Dirt In the Story. “We are trying to prove to the farmers throughout the land that President Coolidge is a real dirt farm er, as were his father and grandfath- er before him.” So says the Home Town Coolidge Club, of Plymouth, Vt. Well, Mr. Coolidge began to practice law in Northampton in 1897, tw, years after his graduation from Amherst. In 1#99 he became a Councilman; in 1900 City Solicitor; in 1904 Clerk of Courts, and he occupied various other official places, including the Governorship of Massachusetts and Vice Presidency, until the death of Mr. Harding. just & year ago brought him to the Pres- dency.
