This community of workers demands
that any revision of the tariff. while
removing the inequalities shall main
tain the principle of protection which
will give employment to our people and
maintain their wages. We denounce the
Democratic proposal that protection be
abandoned. and the adoption of a tariff
for revenue only.
I'VE unqualifiedly indorse the splen-
did administration of Theodore Roose-
Welt. In indorsing his administration
we greet in William H. Taft a worthy
successor, and we pledge to him the
loyal and conscientious support of our
representatives in Congress, il elected.
I'VE approve the record of our rep
resentative In Congress, Hon, Richard
Wayne Parker, who has rendered such
valuable service to the people of his
district and his State"
DR.. Walter S. Washington, former
county physician, placed Mr.. Parker in
nomination. AS the delegations We're
called all indorsed Parker. Mr.. An
derson had gone among the New Idea
people and had told them not TO nom
mate Martin. The unanimous vote of
the convention was then cast by the
secretary for the nominee.
Mr.. Parker had written a speech OF
acceptance in advance. but after The
committee SEM for him had escorted
him to the han, he began by speaking
extemperaneously, but later on read
part of the prepared speech.
He said the campaign was the ma
TONS, and that this was a campaign
to maintain the prosperity established
under Republican administrations.
This prosperity vas TO be continued
not only by electing William II, Taft,
but also a Republican House of Repre-
'sentatives.
'If we hope to carry New Jersey for
'Ihe Republican party" said Mr.. Par
ker, Essex county. If it cares for Mr..
Taft, must roll up one of its old-time
matorities."
! 'rhe prosperity Of this city, he said
later. comes only from the protective
which gives employment to our
thousands of workmen and at the same
time provides only fair profits for the
manufacturer"
1T Is the old fight that is on this
he said in another part of his
speech. at is a fight that has unfor-
tunately been made more serious by
OBJECTIONS in certain parts of the North
and in the mining sections OF the West,
who have forgotten what il is TO have
a great mining community in the midst
of their farms"
Mr.. Parker said that a second issue
was between men who professed some
what the same principles. but whose
methods of going at things were diff
ferent.

the officers to any bank in the city of
Providence for the purpose Of estab-
fishing his moral and financial stand
ing Nothing, apparently could be
more straightforward. He was placed
under arrest, however. and then the
secret service men made an examina-
tion of his room at the Southern hotel.
There they found a suitcase con-
tanning $4,700 in genuine money. He
was asked then to explain how he
came to be possessed Of the counter
felt money. He said that on the pre-
vious afternoon he had gone to the
Union station for the purpose OF hay
ing the return half of his railroad
ticket validated. AS he came out OF
the ticket agents Office, the electric
lights were suddenly turned on in
the waiting room, and he saw in the
corner on the floor a long white en-
yelope. He picked it up and found
that it contained $4,000 in s1O0 bills.
He Immediately went to the office Of
one of the local newspapers and in
serted an advertisement telling OF his
discovery, and offering to restore the
money to it's lawful owner. This part
of his story was verified by the little
Identification check which is given to
classified "ad' patrons by the big daily
newspapers. In addition to this there
was a clipping from the paper contain
ing a copy of the advertisement
which read as follows:
Found: In the Union station late
Yesterday afternoon a sum of money
in bank notes which owner may have
after proving property, by applying to
X-13, this office" ....
Then John E. Wilkie, who had been
directing the movements Of his sub
ordipates by wire, determined to take
hold of the case in person.
He Immediately took a train for st.
Touis and after a number of inter-
views with his associates in that city,

weakest link in the strong chain of
probability with which Mr.. Graham
was surrounded. One of the earliest
movements made in the investiga-
tion was to discover the exact hour
At which the electric lights were
turned on in the Union station. The
engineer of the electric plant was con-
sulted and his records showed that
on this particular date the switch
which put the lights into operation had
been turned on at $40. Wilkie next

there is nothing in this world more
difficult for a man to do than to ad
nit to another man that he has
been guilty of wrong. He realized,
therefore, the necessity of giving Cra.
han an opportunity Of confessing
gracefully. He did this by sugges-
ton, by innuendo, by appealing to the
mans pride, by pleading with his pa
triotic instinct, and, at last, by laying
siege to his sense of Justice. He said
in substance:

quested report upon the exact time
at which the advertisement was ac-
cepted. The clerk who received the
notice was finally located. and he re.
membered distinctly that he had
stopped work on that afternoon at
five o'clock; the ad. which he had re-
| ceiyed was the fifth or sixth above
the last one, and, according to his
own calculation, it must have been
handed in at half-past four o'clock.
This pointed to discrepancy In Cra-
hans statement Of one hour and ten
minutes.
1t was important 1t was the thin
entering wedge which might produce
great results. ,... ..
One of the significant discoveries
among Crahans effects was a number
of programmes of races at Grayesend
and two or three of the eastern tracks,
not to speak of one particular pro-
gramme which contained the entries
of the races where the first book
maker had received the 500 bill which
he deposited with his roll in the
Broadway Trust company. Graham
calmly admitted that he had attended
all of these races; that he was lover
of horse flesh and that he occasionally
made small wagers on the results; but
he denied positively having passed
any of the other 500 bills, and said
that he had never had them In his
possession until he found the white
envelope at the Union station In St.
Louis. ..
Wilkie did some very severe think
ing at this stage Of the game, and out
Of it all came the theory that If
Graham was guilty, he might have used
similar subterfuges in passing coun-
terfeit money at the eastern tracks.
The chief thereupon telegraphed New
York and ordered that a careful
search be made of the files of all the
New York newspapers for the two
months covering the racing season.
1t was like searching for the needle
in the proyerbial haystack, but it bore
fruit, for in the New York Herald Of
May "a the searchers discovered this
advertisement:
Found: At the Grand Central station
late yesterday afternoon a sum of
money in bank notes which owner may
have, after proving property, by ap-
plying to B-344, Herald office"
1t is hardly necessary to say that by
this time Mr.. Wilkie had several spe-
cimens of Crahan's handwriting After
