ROOSEVELT TRIUMPHED IN PENNSYLVANIA PRIMARIES.

Colonel Will Control State Convention' And Have All But S or 16 of the Delegates. Theodore Roosevelt goes marching on and in the Pennsylvania primaries last Saturday he made a sweeping victory, getting 65 or possibly 67 of the delegates to the national convention. Woodrow Wilson will get all but two of the delegates to the democratic national convention, the two going to Champ Clark. The primaries are giving a great victory to Roosevelt, substantiating the claims of his campaign managers that he is the preference of the grjeat majority of the people. Roosevelt is quoted as saying “We hit them mlddling hard” when the Penssylvania result was conveyed to him. President Taft, calm and dignified and never playing politics, was unmoved by the result. He will remain in the race until the finish, his campaign managers say.
