ZZtZiA THE WASI.TNUTOS TLUES. MONDAY, NOVEMBER 1, 1915. IT SUPPORT TO RELY UPON OF PROGRESSIVES Nomination of Senator Begins to Seem Possible, Party Leaders Believe. OLD GUARD'S POSITION Would Nominate Borah or Had-ley for Second Place on the Ticket. Friend of Senator Kllhu noot.

of New Tork. nre pnstng along the word that hi room for the Republican Presidential nomination next year will have to be taken seriously. Moreover, they are engaged In trying to show that the Root strength throughout the country Is much areater than might be supposed and Includes the support of many of the Republicans who are regarded as progressive. In this connection. It has developed that a number of Republican leaders Jwho are for Root will soon wait upon him and try to Induce him to enter the Presidential race, either becoming; an active- candidate or encouraging those who are seeking his nomination.

Is Making Headway. Washington has believed that the Root movement would not be pressed hard because of the objections of pro-gresstve-mlnded voters, but It appears that some of the most powerful of the conservative Republican leaders In various parts of tho country are working hard for Root, and that many of the progressive Republicans are saying they will support him. It Is said today that Republicans of all brands. Incredible as It may seem, will unite In support of the man who was chairman of the convention which renominated William II. Taft and who carried through tho parliamentary program for the Tuft forces.

The Root leaders are banking on promises of this kind. They meant to attempt to nominate Root at the head of the ticket and put Into second place some man known as a i-gresslsn Republican, like Ilorah of Idaho or Had-ley of Missouri. Need Strong President. They arc making the appeal for Root on the ground that the country needs an extremely strong man to act as Chief Executive In the next Administration, In tho period, presumably. when the world will have stopped the war and started on a reconstruction and rehabilitation period.

One of the difficulties they encounter Is the certainty that If the Old Guard should succeed In naming him the Democrats would proceed to make a nationwide attack on the ticket on the ground that it represented an effort of the reactionaries to return to power. This would be made to drive progressive republicans and Progressives away from the Republican ticket. It would unquestionably cost the Republican party many votes. How many. Is a matter of opinion.

That It would alto enable the Progressive party to make a lgor-ous campaign is clear. The Root nomination. It Is contended here, would De such a nomination as would enable the Progressives to continue In the held and mako a largo showing of otes. Old Guard's Position. Whether the Old Guard leaders name one of the men who Is entirely satisfactory to them will depend largely on tho attitude of the progressive Republican leaders.

At the convention no one candidate will have anything like a majority or delegates. A lot or confe-ence-i and powwows will held, in theso conferences, unles the progressive Republicans flatly announco that the nomin-t-tlon of ono of the old Ouard candidate will mean a split, tho Old Guard will probably proceed as It chooses. Freilcoff to Represent Hebrews of Washington Representative-! of thirty-two Hebrew societies In Washington gathered at the Pythian Temple last night and elected Morris FrWlcoff as delegate to the Hebrew conferenco In New York city. November 21. Mr Freilcoff presided the meeting yesterday, and D.
