Congressman AHes declared that he had

and no one without a tickle could get in.
My suggestion was, that II tickets were
Necessary to admission to the convention

mission should procure them. This proved
to be a correct thing, as the Taft managers
had arranged that nc one without a ticket
should enter the hall
