THEIR LITTLE BOOMS
Pennsylvania will go to Chicago for
Knox, O io for Talr, Indiana f r Fair
banks, Illinois for Cannon, Wisconsin
for Li Folletta, New York mostly for
Hughes. 1 But speaking of this point
the Oregonian says: The candidacy
of Cannon cah scarcelv be called a ser
lous proposition, nor of Fairbanks, nor
of Knox,? though Knox is exceedingly
able, acd morever he Is right and
sound on all main questions. His pub
lic utterences bear the stamp of real
statesmanship. To the ability and
character of Senator Knox, President
Roosevelt has borne high testimony."
The objection to Knox is his residence
in Pennsylvania where they have ultra
radical notions about the tariff, which
is likely to be a very important factor
ia the campaign.
