To Fight It Out in Convention.

On the morning Of the republican state
convention the indications are that the
Higgins and Woodruff or Odell and Platt
forces are still lined up for contest and
the apparently beaten minority seems deter
mined to carry the fight into the conven-
ton.
kings county will not present a candi-
accept any place on the ticket" said
Michael j. Dady early today. II was
aware that some proposition was to be
made as to the lieutenant governorship but
our delegation will not make any compro-
mise. We have candidate for governor
and for no other Office"
Gov. Odell said today that there was still
an opening for third candidate for gov
ernor and compromise II Senator Platt
was willing so consider the matter. Yes
terday the senator would listen to no prop
osftion and declared that he was for Wood
run and for no other candidate and would
not consider the possibility of a third man,
Gov Odell said he did not want to fight
the senator, but he could not make any
overtures now, as everything looking to an
understanding was rejected yesterday.
Convention Opened.
The convention was called to order soon
after noon in the famous convention hall,
which has been the scene of some Of the
most important and dramatic events In the
political history of New York state, indeed
OF the United States, and the preliminary
organization was affected, Former State
Senator j. Sloat Fassett being chosen tenn
porary chairman.
None of the best-known leaders of the
party appeared in the hall before noon
but there was an evident feeling of un-
rest and intensity, owing to the eventful
days which have preceded the convention
and the feeling that there were still stri-
ring incidents to be expected even though
1t is believed that the possibility of seri-
Gus pitched battle had to a considerable
extent been averted.
The appearance of former Lieut. Gov
Woodruff evoked a burst Of cheers. and
Senator Platt, who followed soon after. re-
ceived an ovation that lasted several min
uteS.
Gov OdeII was not In attendance.
Mr.. Fassett's Speech.
In opening his speech Temporary Chair
man Fassett said; Not being a demo-
cratic nominee for the presidency 1 shall
have no hesitation in discussing public is
sues"
He then reviewed the growth of the re-
publican party for the last fifty years, say
Ing its greatest asset Is the record of what
1t had done, and inquiring why there
should be a change. What ACCOMPLISH
ments or the democratic party whenever 1t
mas been In power during the last half
century give us any encouragement to
trust 1t again?' he inquired. I'VE search
its platform and listen to its candidates.
and read its newspapers in vain for any
comprehensive, coherent system of plan for
bettering our conditions
I'VE have waited in vain for some strong,
clear, unmistakable, commendabie Amel1-
can policy to be announced by the demo-
cratic candidate"
Eulogy Of Roosevelt.
Mr.. Fassett concluded his speech with
glowing eulogy of President Roosevelt

aroused the delegates to a great pitch of

NEW YORK REPUBLICANS
Meet at Noon, With Governorship Con-
test Open.

By Associated Press.
SARATOGA, N. Y, September 13.-The
apparently tangled political situation here
yesterday had resolved itself by the time
the republican state convention actually
met today into plain contest between Gov.
OdeN and Senator Plat, which the former
and his friends until the last moment were
trying to keep from taking open form upon
the floor of the convention. There is an
tagonism between Gov. Odell and Mr..
Woodruff and none between Mr.. Woodruff
and Lieut. Gov. Higgins. 1t was made plain
today that Mr.. Woodruff was not averse to
an amicable settlementn OF the conflict be-
tween his own and the Higgins interests.
1t was the uncompromising attitude of
Senator Platt in behalf of Woodruff, and
against Gov. Odell and the Higgins move
ment, that prevented the proposed confer
ence yesterday afternoon and precluded the
possibility of Mr. Woodruff's honorable
withdrawal from the contest, or a compro-
mise which might have resulted in the Sc
lection of a third man for the governorship

Kerosene For Cleaning.
American Press.


The cleaning properties of ker-
osene are not generally recogni-
zed.
Nothing makes a kitchen cub
board more attractive than CLEAN
ing tinware.
A few drops of kerosene will
accomplish this. Soap and wat
er vii! remove the oil, and the
odor will soon disappear. There
is nothing like kerosene to make
the wash basin shine.
1t is effective as a furniture mol.
ish. Mahogany can be freed
from that blue, smoky film by
the uae Of q few drops Of oil mix
ed with a little water. Carved
furniture, which defies the dust
cloth, le made as attractive az
new by brushing it with soft
halrbrush dipped in kerosene.
For removing stains and spots
from lavatory basin and bathtut
kerosene cannot he equalled.
Table oilcloths or the linoleum
on the kitchen floor can be kept
tresher and cleaner with oil than
with soap and water.
a few drops of oil will do much
towards starting particles OF dust
from machinery. If a clock is tc
be cleaned it can be done effec.
lively by placing in the lower
part u cloth saturated with kero
Sene. The bits Of dirt and parti
cles of dust will be loosenea by the
vapor and will drop down and
can be removed.
