SOME INDISCREET THINGS MR..
FLANIGHN HAS SAID

How can We endorse the adminstra-
ton of Roosevelt and yet fail to instruct
our delegates for Taft?" inquired Judge
Lewis H. Rodgers at the Winnemucca
Republican State convention in propos-
ing the resolution endorsing w. H.
Taft for nomination at Chicago, defeatd
"n the floor of the convention by P. L.
Flanagan. The question remains with
out an answer
Mr.. Flanagan made the greatest
nratorical effort of his life in opposition
to that resolution. 1t was Il simple
resolution too, one designed by re-
publicans to keep the party in Nevada
IN the band wagon, which had already
assumed the Taft colors.
Mr. Flanagan started out by the de-
rlaration, Taft is impossible"
Then came the deluge:
II have been OH the ground in Ohio, -
he continued and | know the negro
vote is against him. the labor vote
likewise.
Senator Nixon knows the situation
end he advises us to not endorse Taft.
but to send an uninstructed delegation
to Chicago"
Mr. Flanagan resumed quickly and
said III conclusion, 1--WE will make the
mistake of our lives if We instruct this
delegation to vote for Taft, VINO cannot
he elected if he is nominated"
Judge MOrchouse, who of all the
leaders, OF tn" republican party is one of
Inc most far sighted, spoke strongly in
favor OF the Taft resolution. but the
Flanagan declarations and the letter of
instructions from Senator Nixon had
zone the work and the Taft resolution
was defeated Morchouse declared
that, when the roll is called in Chicago
mark You the great national head of
the republican party will ba William
Howard Taft, of Ohio"
Others spoke and NJ. D. Staunton
Terminated the debate Ivy spcouding
the remarks of Flanagan. He said
We culogizcd our grand Senator
George 5. Nixon, and nows hould we
humiliatr him by pledging our dole
CATION for William H. Taft? | feel
that our Senator is there. on the
ground, We owe it to him to respect

but changed his mind and rather than
humiliatc Senator Nixon. the con.
vention swallowed orders and votCd
