on a charge of robbing the Bakersfield
Hardware company.
Among other articles recovered
were many bearing the mark of a

ROOSEVELT WINS.
Defeats Vice President Sherman
for Temporary Chair man.

Saratoga, N. Y Dispatch, 27th.
Colonel Theodore Roosevelt
rode today on the top wave Of
victory, defeating Vice President
Sherman for temporary chairman
of the Republican State conven-
ton and bowling over the old
guard in the first engagement
of a series of conflicts that are
to come.
Colonel Roosevelt was in his
element. After he had named
the members of the three import
ant committees and the conven-
tion had adjourned to meet to-
morrow the Colonel turned to the
newspaper men and remarked:
Il said frazzle, you may recall,
ou may quote me-
At Troy yesterday the former
President said he would beat his
opponents to a frazzle. There
were 1,012 votes cast in the con-
vention, of which Colonel Roose-
welt received SCI and Vice Presi-
dent Sherman received AS. this
electing the leader of the pro-
gresives by a majority of l22.
Colonel Roosevelt spoke feeling
ly of what President Taft had
accomplished in his administra-
ton saving that "the laws pass
ed reflect high credit upon all
who succeeded in putting them
in their present shape upon the
statute book; they represent an
earnest of the achievement which
is yet to come, and the benefi-
cence and far-reaching impor-
tance of this work done for the
whole people measure the credit
which is rightly due to the Con.
gress and to our able. upright
and distinguished President, Will
liam Howard Taft. -
| The spectators and many o1
the delegates warmly applaudec
the declaration of Colonel Roose
velt for a direct primary plank
i Colonel Roosevelt bitterly as
sailed the bosses, declaring
that the difference between +;
boss and leader is that the lead
er leads and the boss drives. Tn,
difference is that the leader hold
; his place by firing the conscienc
, and appealing to the reason O
his followers and that the boss
holds his place by crooked ant
underhand manipulatiOn.''
