This was taken 10 mean that Kansas

the colonel
That was all Of the lengthy address to-
day. The stops at Ordway, Sugar City
and Eads. Colo. were brief and unevent-
fuI. The colonel beamed and shook hands
and said kind things Several crates OF
melons were given 70 him.
At Fades Mr.. Roosevelt was interrupted
by the spectacle Of a thin woman trying
to take his picture. The woman would
hold the camera aIoft so high she couldn't
focus it. and when she squeezed the bulb
the lens was taking in either Mr.. Car
field or a barn in the distance. She got
some swell views Of Fades.
Just minute. please the colonel
said. Give her a chance It's the first
time have had. my picture taken on this
trip"
Everybody laughed because, OF course.
the colonel has been snap-shotted ever
so many times recently. In fact there are
/ four photographers on the train. But il
served 20 while away the hours.
Tonight Mr.. Roosevelt IS inside the
State Of Kansas, where the insurgents are
rampant He is chatting with Garfield
and Pinchot. A huge celebration has been
I planned for him, and they expect him %
cut loose and go 10 It. which he probably
viii not do The insurgents published
their resolutions to-day written by Will
/ lam Allen White. Here is a paragraph
that drew a smile from the colonel:
I'VE send our greetings to Theodore
/ Roosevelt, the new worlds champion OF
/ the rights OF man IN the w'orld-old con-
test between rising humanity and the en-
! croachments Of special privilege, and as

we are sounder than any other nation,
but there are lot Of things to be con-
sidered For instance. take the corpora

Il believe in doing full justice 10 every
corporation. II is entitled 10 its rights.
It should be protected in its rights; but
# Is not entitled 70 vote. and it IS not
entitled to own any public servants. SO
far as I am able ! will protect the cor
porations against crooks who blackmail
them and against the visionary dema-
gogues who would wrong them by at
lacking them Improperly"
When the colonel turned 10 the other
side Of the question he was appIauded
wildly. The public seems 10 like 10 lear
the corporations hammered rather than
to have them praised.
And I will do everything in my
power" he shouted, Ito take the corpora
tions out OF politics. We want 20 break
up the connection between crooked poll
ties and crooked business. To do that
we must insist not only on justice. but
on doing justice Do not trust men who
Will resort to any kind of blackmail II

Lays n Corner stone.
And then he went away from there.
Pueblo cleaned the streets and did all
sorts Of things to make Mr.. Roosevelt
and his party feel at home to-day. 1t
was just before he laid the corner stone
! for the new Y. NJ. c. "A. building that
the colonel made his address. First he
singled out the Grand Army men, and
then he swung into his prepared speech.
He called attention 70 the Forest Serv-
ice, and said that it had done good work,
as good as the fire departments of or
big cities. As servants Of the public
we ought TO feel proud OF them.
II wish that could go down to New
Mexico and Arizona was the notion that
I struck the former President. but this is
the nearest place TO them that I will
reach on this trip. There IS one point
upon which I would like to advise them
and that is to leave the constitutions

people feel that they should be amended

No Compromise Wanted in
the State Convention.

New York. Aug. 3o.-"Mr GrelaA. Mr.
Kraclle. and Mr.. Griscom are agreed that
Mr.. Roosevelt's name shall be presented
10 the coming State convention as can
didate for temporary chairman. and also
that they will use their best en1eavors
to have included in the party platform
direct nominations plank"
This statement was issued after con-
ferences had been held to-day between
Chairman Griscom. OF the Republican
county committee; Fred Greiner. Repub-
lican leader OF Buffalo; William
Loeb, jr, collector Of the port OF New
York. who was described by some OF
those attending the conferences to be
acting as the representative Of Mr.
Roosevelt; Frederick H. Kracke, naval
officer Of the port; former Mayor A. c.

export. Of Utica, Mr. Sherman's home

VIII Enter Primaries.
The decision reached was that plans
had been made Immediately for the max
ing OF fights in all primary elections
which would insure the progressives OBJ
tanning control of TIE convention. From
reports which Mr.. Griscom has received
from all parts of the State, he is conf
dent that the progressives will be able TO
dominate the convention. 1t is believed
/ by Mr.. Roosevelts friends that the old

only from Albany Syracuse, and Roches-

there would certainly be a divided delega-

combination.
Refuse All Compromise.
II is not likely that the Roosevelt mer
will agree TO any compromise. They are
entirely confident that they Will be abb,
to control both the meeting at the Stat,
committee and the majority Of the dele
gates to the convention. and they Intend
TO seat Mr.. Roosevelt as temporar!
chairman, to insert the direct nomins

Beverly, Mass. Aug. 3O.-Discussion Of
President Taft's probable appointment to
the Supreme Court was revived here
when It was learned that the President
took luncheon to-day at the home Of
Charles P. SearIes. near Ipswich. with
Associate Justice Holmes and United
States Judges L. D. Colt, William L. Put
nam. and Francis c. Lowell, Of the First
circuit
The President has two vacancies TO Ill
on the Supreme Court bench. One oc-
Cured with the death OF Chief Justice
Fuller and the other Will come about
when Associate Justice william II.
Moody makes formal announcement Of
his retirement under the recent act Of
Congress There is no doubt as 70 Nr
Moody's intention to quit the bench. al
though his health Is said to be improv-
| ing.
Vacancies Are Discussed.
The President announced at the time Of
the death OF Chief Justice Fuller that he
desired the advice and suggestions Of
reputable lawyers and judges from all
over the country While no statement
was made at the executive Offices that
the Supreme Court vacancies were talked
about at the luncheon to-day. II is be-
lieved here tonight that the subject did
come vp. II only in an incidental way.
! So far as friends OF the President knows
at this time. ne has not changed his mind
as to the appointment OF Gov. Hughes TO
/ succeed Justice Fuller The governor has
/ already been confirmed by the Senate as
/ an associate justice, succeeding the late
! Justice Brewer. The President. according
( 10 the present plan. Will have to with
draw the governors name as associate
/ justice and submit it again as Chief Jus

leved here 20 stand better chance al
this time than does any other man.
May Call Extra Session.
Although the President has not favored
the calling OF an extraordinary session OF
/ the Senate before the regular session be
gins 20 confirm his appointments 10 tho

question will be taken Up by the Cabinet
when it meets in Washington late IN Sep.

willing that it be discussed at length b.
his official family.
