The Second Delegate.

For second delegate William W. Ives
said be wished to name a man who has
proved true to every trust one who
has had experience in the council and
when in the minority stood faithfully
and contended for republican princi-
pies and worked for the best interests
of the city and the party as a. citizen of
Norwich. He nominated Herbert M.
Lerou, whose name was received with
applause. William A. Breed seconded
his nomination.
Edwin A. Tracy said he was present
by express invitation of The Bulletin,
having read therein a few weeks ago
an editorial which suited him exactly.
1t commented on an editorial from an
other paper concerning machine rule
and saying that the responsibility of
machine rule in every city was on the
rank and file of the party AS the
party is. SO will the mana cement be,
and dissatisfaction with the manage
ment should bring the party to put in
new ones. Leaders are necessary, and
when they represent the true prinei-
pies of the republican party they
should be continued indefinitely but
when they devote themselves to selfish
interests it is then time for the rank
and file to express an opinion.
In the United States the republican
party is on trial and earnest men are
endeavoring to bring about reform on
principles of the republican party. Nor
wich should regain it's position of forty
years ago. Today it has no influence
in the state, but has drifted into petty
politics, and the cry is offices. We must
bring back its good name, work for its
best interests, regulate the expenses
and control the taxes. He hoped they
would take the first step there and
nominate a man who represents the
best ideals of the republican party. He
stands well. is a successful business

terests of the city and who would hon

pledged, but devoted to the best inter

NEW YORK, July 29.-Theo-
dore Roosevelt .s~day declared he
isytaking no part in the guberna-
torial contest in California. He
denied that he is backing Hiram
Johnson, insurgent candidate,
against the other candidates for
the nomination. The statement
was issued in connection with the
candidacy of Phillip A. Stanton
and Hiram Johnson.
Clifford Pinchot's support of
Johnson caused the report to be
circulated that Roosevelt favored
the avowed candidate of the Lin
Icoln-Roosevelt league.
Col. e. d. Stanton, brother of
Phillip Stanton, called on Mr.
Roosevelt at his office at the Out
look. After long conference
Stanton departed. Then Roose-
welt gave out a statement to the

More Rotten Service.
Yesterday the Spanaway cal
schedule was changed to cut hall
the cars off the line. For two
years this line has had half hour
cars, and in the last six months
this line took in over $4,000, but
the company yesterday cut the
time to one car each hour, to show
its contempt for the people on the
line.
This morning another blow was
struck at the convenience of the
citizens of the old Puyallup line
The tripper that has been going to
Woodland in the morning was
taken off. Workmen who are en-
ployed in town waited for over an
hour for a car to get to their en-
ployment, not knowing that the
company had cut off the service.

SNUb
HIS NAME STRICKEN FROM
CHESTER THORNE'S LIST OF
GUESTS FOR YACHT "TRIP
BUT "A. "" DOESN'T CARE
A RAP. HE SAYS.

Mayor Fawcett will not go In
Chester Thorne's yacht with Gov
ernor Hay and other prominent
citizens" to meet the monitor
Cheyenne tomorrow when she
comes up the sound.
And thereby hangs a tale.
When the guest list was made
up Mayor Fawcett and Mayor Gill
of Seattle were naturally both in
cluded in the party that should
go down sound and meet the
Cheyenne and welcome her to
Puget Sound. Chester Thorna
offered his yacht for the party.
But when Thorne looked over the
list to go and saw Fawcett's name
it is told that he emphatically
stated that the Thorne yacht
would make no trip with the may
or aboard.
So Fawcett's name is off the
list To take Fawcett off and
leave Gill on would look too bad
sc Gill was eliminated also and 1t
was announced the boat would
not stop at Seattle at all. So the
Seattle elite will come over and
take the yacht here and they will
go out to meet the Cheyenne In
real elegant style.
''Well, / never knew was on

I'm off. l know Chester Thorne

him. but never wanted to break

RaWn Died
OF Own
Hand

CHICAGO, July 29.-Ira G..
Rawn, president of. the Monon
railroad, found shot to death in
his home at Winnetka, died by his
own hand. That Is the verdict
returned today by the coroner's
jury.
Whether death was accidental
or suicidal the jury is unable to
determine" says the verdict.
But the position of the wound
and the type of revolver found
make the accidental theory the
less probable"
Rawn was found in the dining
room of his home on the night of
July 10. His family said he had
been shot by a burglar whom
Rawn surprised packing the sill
verware ready to leave the house.
Private detectives employed ad-
