Six hundred rurales, with machine

Palace officials deny a press dispatch

In face OF the official reticence and the
difficulty OF telegraphing it IS impossible

Lincoln. Nebr.. July 26.-George w.
Norris. Nebraska's insurgent Congress-
man. was defeated this afternoon at the
Republican State convention for the per-
manent craftsmanship by Senator Norris
Brown by vote Of 55l to 2SS. The con-
vention passed a resolution indorsing
county option. Bryans pet issue. It also
declared for direct legislation by a vote
OF almost TO l. Representative Norris
offered the following resolution. which
was adopted:
For the further and better regulation
Of the liquor traffic in Nebraska. we
favor the passage OF a county option
law by the next session Of the legisla-
ture, and pledge our candidate for gov
ernor if elected. 70 sign such law on
that subject as the legislature may
enact"
Although the naming OF Senator Brown
as permanent chairman was regarded as
a victory for the regulars" epresente-
tive Norris succeeded IN having the CON
vention pass the following resolution
sponsoring the insurgent movement in
Congress:
Every protest against wrong is in
surging for the right We are unalterably
opposed TO the system known as Cannon
ism. and are In hearty sympathy with
the insurgent movement in and out Of
the Congress. We herewith urge our
Senator's and Representatives TO continue
TO use their votes and influence along
progressive lines in the future"
The convention. which had been herald
ed as giving promise of a bitter contest
over the Craftsmanship. passed of with
remarkable harmony. There was a clash
at first when a motion was made TO make
Brown permanent chairman. Delegates
from the Fifth district. which Norris rep
resents, made a game stand for their
chief. They were on the floor with
speeches urging the selection OF Norris
But the junior Senator OF Nebraska had
the party organization behind him, and
he won with ease. He was also sup
ported by Senator Burkett and Victor
Rosewater, OF Omaha,
After the selection Of the permanent
chairman the convention settled down 70
business. President Tafts adminisitra-
ton was indorsed and Roosevelt was re-
ferred 10 as one OF Americas greatest
citizens and foremost statesman. The
mention OF his name set the convention
wild. It was several minutes before or
