TAFT STEAM ROLLERWright, Williams and Sutton, Roosevelt Republicans, in l.niiisinnaAre to Ik* Flattened. Others fn the South Mast Be Rolled.nennffidoredTvoilakfai: val halt; IofHiflt;‘XfI himeThe Times-Democrat Staff Special at Washington. D. C., under dale of Feb. 27, says: Any further recognition of Pearl Wright gets as Republican national committeeman from Louisiana will be wholly-, unintentional on the part of the occupant of the While House. Victor Loisei and Emile Kunlz will take his place, and when a new national committeeman is chosen from Louisiana, his name is more likely lobe Loisei than Wright. In addition, the Presidentmay tako a nation in look into thecharges made by C. J. Bell and the members of the anti-Wright organization.That is the sort of political brew concocted at the White Hous£ today by President Taft, Secretary Lilies. Victor Loisei and Emile Kuntz. They are .to have another conference tomorrow. If they can think of any other unpleasantness to hand to Mr. Wright, I hoy will prepare it.Diligence of a like character is to be shown in dealing with Col. Cecil Lyon. Republican national committeeman from Texas. The Colonel's fealty to Roosevelt will cause it to be suggested to him that be look to the Colonel for the patronage Ihat keeps the breath of life in his organization.The blunt English of the foregoing is Ihat the Roosevelt followers in the South are going to be given the jolts becausp they elected to r take sides with the Colonel and j0p against Ihe administration. They' will be “steam-rollered,” and if Postmaster-general Hitchcock undertakes to exercise any of the influence he acquired while in charge of the steam roller four years ago, there will be a vacancy in the Post- jM Office Department. |mThe Louisiana men told the Pres- ja ideni that he would have at least \\ seventeen of the twenty delegates j from Louisiana, the three Roosevelt; in- votes being those of Wright.
