Senator Beveridge began his speech

One difference between the opposition
and ourselves is this: They select their

select our candidate for us.
Theodore Roosevelt is leader who

purposes Of the people. Our presidents
plans, when achieved, are always found
to be merely the nations will accom-
plished. And that is why the people will
elect him.
They will elect him because they know
that If he is president he will get to work
and keep at work on the canal. After

Little Girl Stirs Cheering.
When the applause had continued
almost seven minutes, it was given a
new impetus by Chairman Cannon,
who walked once more to the front,
carrying his large banner. A little
girl clad entirely in white, was lifted
high on the shoulders of some of the
California delegates, and the first
sound of her childish treble was tF

Cannon to loan him the large flag he
had carried, and with smile the
chairman handed it down. Around

white and gold, came marching down

trooping along behind, shouting,
laughing and cheering.

more to the cheering Of the candi-
date, shouting Roosevelt" "Roose-

A small colored boy, James Blaine

platform, and he waved in frantic
fashion a small national flag.
