Of rocks, which had slid down on tho
track, A sheer precipice Of shelving
rock around which the railroad had
been built, rises straight from the
track for over 100 feet, while on the
other side tho river rolls about 200
feet below.
As the express shot around the
sharp curve the engineer saw the great
pile OF slab rocks covering the track
not more than 100 feet away. This
emergency brakes were applied with
a suddenness that brought the pas
up standing but such was ths
momentum that the train plowed safe

Sunfower State Republicans
Block Insurgents, Who Would
Have Named Lafollette.
INSURGENTS LACKED LEADER
Platform Adopted at Convention
Praises President for States
manship and Wise Guild
ance Of Affairs.

Lincoln, Neb., July 3.-Nebraska re-
publicans in convention here to-day gave
president Taft and his administration a
strong Endorsement and effectively
blocked all efforts of n small band of In
surrent Delegates to arouse sentiment for
Senator Robert NJ. Lafollette Of W!scon-
sin AZ n presidential candidate.
The insurgents lacked a leader and
were outgeneraled by Victor Roseweter
and his delegation from Omaha. Before
the Insurgents could get a chance to in
troduce resolutions from the floor the
regulars had rushed through a motion
| providing that ali resolutions should be
referred to Il committee which was given
power to draw up a final report. CHAIR
man A. W. Jeffries of Omaha then named
a committee of seven members Of which
five were strong friends Of Mr.. Taft and
of which Mr.. Rosewatcr was made chair
man. From this point the possibilities of
the fight on the floor over the endorse
ment of Mr.. Taft went glimmering.
Despite their early announcement tina,
they would not assent to a Taft endorse
nent on any conditions, the insurgents
failed to make even a show of fight OF
objection when tho platform resolution
was finally presented. The resolution
went through with a whoop by a rising
vote, during which several Of the in
surgents were discovered on their feet.
An attempt to have the convention
instruct the resolutions committee to
refrain from endorsing any individual
candidate met with summary treat
ment. l. n. Evans Of Adams county
secured the floor for this purpose, but
he was howled down by other dele
gates and g~aveled out of order before
he could read his resolution.
This was as far as the insurgents
could get with their fight to prevent
a Taft endorsement. From this june
ture the insurgent opposition slunped
to nothing,
Out of the total of s55 votes in the
convention. it was said by regular
leaders that the insurgents could no,
muster a following Of more than 15C
delegates.
The platform adopted "rejoices in
the glorious record Of the Republican
party and "congratulates the coun-
try or its continued peace. progress
and prosperity under the wise guild.
anCe of our republican President"
praises Taft for his arbitration trea
ties, conservation Of natural resources
and prosecution of trusts and heart
lily endorses his statemanlike admin
istration."
