Things are not going to be all one way in the bull moose headquarters of the Teddylte faction of the republican party in Lancaster county. When George A. Adams, the new chairman of the county committee returns home he will find the county committee In anything but a unanimous condition. It Is true that the mooters are ' In the majority, but the Taft men have about two-flfthi of the committee and they are not feeling espe cially good because they were not allowed a lookln at the state convention. The moo of the bull moose in the political forest Is liable to find the trumpeting of the elephant a strong factor in prevent ing harmony In the music of th jungle, and the chairman of the moosers will not find his path all strewn with roses.
