TO DEFEND PRERAREDNESS
WASHINGTON, D. C., Jan. 10.—
It is now stated that Presidont Wil
son may take the stump for pre
paredness and travel over every
state to uphold his policies.
It is believed that Bryan, Roose
velt and Wilson will wage the bit
terest feud evor recordod in Amer
ican history and that the coming
election will be the most exciting
ever held.
Already signs are not wanting
that Roosevelt and Wilson will be
particularly antagonistic over
the government policies, the former
demanding aggression and the lat
ter Insisting upon the wisdom of his
actions.
Senator Gore in the Senate sain
that he would penalize all belliger
ents in any way interfering with
American shipping when such in
terference was against international
law.
Senator Fall would exempt, he
said, all coastwise and Pan-Amer
ican ships from paying tolls through
the Panama Canal.
The Democrats are now urging
Taft for the Supreme Bench, and it
is said to be ninety nine to one that
ho will succeed Lamar whose roac
tion ho favored.
The first fight for conservation
occurred in the Senate today and is
very bitter, the absence of party
lines being an indication of much
future filibustering. Altogether the
political atmosphere is electrical.
