Indianapolis, August 11.-Factional feel ing in the special national United Mine Workers convention, which opened here today. cropped out late this afternoon during the reading of President Lewis report.
 Howls and misses greeted the President s reference to the shot-f1rers clause in the Illinois agreement, and MT. Lewis stopped reading long enough to inform the dele gates that he had been taught that there were only two creatures that hissed, and he need not name the two.
 President Lewis in his report declared that authority of the International of- flcers must be supreme if the organization was to continue and he said he did not believe there was a delegate present who wanted the international organization dis rupted. In closing he urged the delegates to lay aside personal animosities and work for the welfare of the order.
 Secretary Edwin Perry, In his report. brought forth repeated rounds of cheers of the Illinois delegation by declaring that the international body should indorse the Illinois strike, and let it share fully in the strike benefits. He declared that the Illinois strike should be made the is- sue of the internat ational organization.
 The secretary, after speaking of the hardships suffered by the striking min CTS, of whom he said there were more than S5,00O said the international body had paid out $674, ,296. 51 in strike benefits since April 1.

 For the Coming Election

treason by saying that it is necessary in order to eliminate me from politics If this is true, why not bring 1t about in way that will restore harmony and not destroy democratic ascendancy? If the majority of the democrats are op- posed to me, as it Is claimed I should not represent them as their candidate for governor.
 Tn order to silence criticism and to test the question of whether or not I am the choice of the majority, I now offer to waive my title to the nomination, restore 1t to the people and enter any kind of primary to be held In any way the opposition may elect with an equal division of election officers, and in this primary every well known democrat to be allowed to vote without regard as to how he cast his ballot in the recent judicial election.
 ''I will agree to meet any competitor in such a primary on the stump in joint discussion and answer every charge which has been made against me.
 ''T 1ly condition I make Is that the succ< ' l nominee shall be supported in the 2 mber election by all who par tlcipto , , the primary.

Le- blanc's good fortune in the cross-coun- try aerial race continued on the third leg of the courts today Although he experienced great difficulty he was again the first to arrive at the post. The days flight was from Nancy to this town, a distance of yg36 miles. The leaders time was l hour, 5S min- utes and seconds
 Leblanc, barring accidents, is prac- tically sure of winning the race, al- though M. Aubrun and NJ. Legagneaux. who completed the first two laps in single flights, still have chance. All brun reached here today two hours after Leblanc had landed. M. Lind painter descended and abandoned the race at point 12 miles from Nancy.
 The aviators experienced the rough est sailing thus far encountered. Le- Blanc had the best luck. He came to the town just ahead of violent storm. which caught his pursuers soon after the start. After leaving Nancy a gust Of wind blew away his chart and for time he was lost in a haze. He final ly recognized that Mense river, which he followed over the towns Of Mo,- son and Sedan. Abrun, who was ,n <. next to get away, received the force oI the storm and later ran into thick weather and lost his course. Eventu- ally he found himself over Chalons. where he got the director for Mezieres'

OKLAHOMA DEMOCI
 PUT LIQUOR QJ

Oklahoma City, Okla, August u.-An indorsement of the administration of Gov ernor Haskell and the recommendation from partisan politics were the chief fea- lures of the platform adopted by the dem ocratic state convention here today.
 Among the speakers were United States Senator Gore, who. referring to the charges against him since the congress sional committee began Investigating the McMurray Indian contracts, said.
 He is a coward who would be driven from the path of duty by fear of call umny.
 T shall never be deterred from the performance of my duty no matter what the consequences. The issue as regards myself is immaterial. I am but tenn porary glow which rises and sinks out of sight and is forgotten, but this matter so far as it relates to the immutable rights of the people, is of the highest concern.
 "The congressional investigation will result in incalculable good, equal to the white man and to the red man alike"
 The platform indorses the bank guaran- ty law; holds that the question of prohi- bition has been removed from partisan politics of parties; supports the policy of the administration to erect 8 state capi- tol without cost to the taxpayers; de- clares for | strict enforcement of corpor- ation laws; insists that the interior de- partment's rule of Indian affairs has reached a deplorabe condition resulting from mis-government, and demands that the United States government immedi- ately right its wrongful policy and place

the s-.-...lnstration of laws in the hands of those unselfish enough faithfully to administer that great trust.
 In his keynote speech before the conven- tion, Judge Thomas H. Owen of Musko- gee, the temporary chairman, fully in- dorsed the administration of Gov. Charles N. Haskell. "I use the term admnistra- tion in Its fullest and most complete sense," said he. and to include every democratic official In this state from United States senator to constable. Three years ago we promised the people if they would trust us with the power of gov ernment we would give them an honest administration, a wise and economical administration. We enter this campaign pointing with pride to the fulf1llment of every promise made"
 Judge Owen said the republicans col iected 21,000 annually from special priv iieges and franchises, and that the dem ocrats have collected $174,O0O in four months of a single year He said the democrats gave the state 2-cent pas- senger fare rate and the republea eans knocked 1t out. He said the republica "a ns valued railroads at $3100 per mile and the democrats at $36,000. He reiterated democratic faith in the bank guaranty law and predicted democratic victory in November.
 A resolution was adopted tonight pledg- ing to Senator Gore the confidence of the party in Oklahoma in his integrity, and 1t expressed qualification that his charges have resulted in an investigation of h. dian affairs that may lead to more whole some legislation for the state.

OF BALLINGER
 IS AGAIN A LIVE ISSUE

This Is what is known to greatly embarrass President Taft and his chief advisers. But they are said to real ize that with Roosevelt. Garfield and Pinchot against Bauinger 1t would be very dangerous thing to hold back the findings until after election day.
 The story is kept on the rounds that in the event of the retirement of Sec retary Ballinger, Senator Flint of Cal ifornia will be asked to succeed him.
 The senator gives reason for not standing for reelection that he Is too poor to remain in public life and must take up his law practice again. For this reason many of his friends doubt if he could be induced to accept a cabinet position.
 The salary of the secretary Is SIo,- 900 a year. And there have been sev- eral secretaries of the interior who did not consider 1t necessary to spend much, If any, of their pay in giving entertainments in Washington.
