Alabama suggests Hobson and IT. H. Grunt. Johnson, Olney n^d Folk also get nominated. § The canvass of Republican sentiment made by the C’hlcngo Tribune shows that as the most active candidate in the Republican ranks and with the support of President Roosevelt first choice Is given to Secretary Taft.

Many Republicans still express a preference for Roosevelt In the hope of his becoming a candidate. Cannon, Fairbanks, Knox. LaFollette, Root, For. aker and C’ortelyou all find sufficient support to warrant putting them In the list of possibilities. TO CURE A COLD IN ONE DAY Take LAXATIVK BROMO Quinine Tablets.
