Now comes a loud wail from La

thai Theodore Roosevelt has broken
his promise to the Wisconsin senator
In entering the race for the republi

Offered by lioovevelt that La Eollette
announced himself.

line nnd pave the way for the entry
of Roosevell when the time should he
ripe. In brief l.n Eollette was to be

Just that way. While he was In the
running I.u Eollette was voslly en-
couraged by the Roosevell boosters.
