have been telling the delegates and the dis
trlct leaders to wait awhile, that they
would have plenty Of money soon. Now
they have it. They tried to persuade the
delegates to quit Taft by the offer of posi-
tions. They have personally seen every
one Of the Chicago representation, and in
every instance, despite their promises, nave
failed TO make good. All their inducements
have failed 10 get them what they wanted"
Mr.. jackson also branded as false the
charge that Taft had been big sticking

TAFT MEN HOLD ARKANSAS
Rival Convention" Mere Meet
ing of Roosevelt Sympathizers.
From The Tribune Bureau


Washington. May l0.-The facts in the
alleged Roosevelt bolt" from the Arkan-
sas state convention are set forth az fol-
lows in a telegram from Little Rock
issued by the Taft bureau to-day:
There was but one delegate Republican
State Convention, held in this city on May
!. Every one Of the Seventy-flVe counties
in the regular organization convention
was represented except one. 1t was the
largest Republican convention ever held
in the state. There were some forty
Roosevelt delegates In the convention. who
participated in its proceedings from be-
ginning TO end. The other was a meeting
called by the chairman of the Roosevelt
League. and was composed Of irregular
delegates from two counties that wouldn
present their cases before the state com
mittee, and by one delegation from Logan
County that was turned down by the con-
Vention and the other delegation seated.
The balance of the meeting was composed
of undeleCated persons who were mere
sympa thizers with the Roosevelt move
ment.
| am informed that there were about
fifty white men and l25 negroes who par
ticipated in the meeting Our delegates
We're elected in accordance with the call
of the national committee and everything
connected with our convention The
Roosevelt followers in the 5th Congress
District were called together by the chair
man Of the Congress committee elected six
wears ago, and who was candidate for
delegate to the national convention and
was turned down by the national commit
tee four years ago. They mad so-called
Congress district delegation, which was
wholly irregular. II was composed Of two
white men. one OF whom held two proxies
from one county, and the other man had
been instructed 10 vote for Taft in the
regular Congress convention. and he
"bolted." These men held so-called con-
yention and elected delegates 10 Chicago.
! These are some OF tho methods mat are
being adopted by the followers Of the
colonel in this state. who will go 10 Chi
cago and ask for recognition at the hands
of the national committee.

rRy Telegraph 70 The Tribune


Philadelphia. May to.-Thc statement
that monopolies and trusts arc neces-
sary as a result of modern methods o.
transportation, distribution and COM
munication. and that they cannot b'
stopped by agitation, protestation or
legislation. was made tonight 10y Mar
tin A. Knapp. presiding judge Of ths

address before the Law Academy OF
Philadelphia.
II am not dismayed by the unrcason-
ing clamor about the dangers of monop-
oily" said the judge. Monopoly ana
ombination came with the steam rail-
roads and steam ocean liners. Neither
agitation, protestation nor legislation
can stop the growth of industrial fedcr-
alton.
Il am firmly persuaded that legislative
action in the past I'm the matter Of in
6ustrial combinations has been along
mistaken lines. Such combinations VIII
exist. Notwithstanding all efforts 10 stop
them. While the present antitrust laws
are on the books they should tc en-
forced. but they should not be allowed T"
be permanent measures"

Washington. MAY 10. 80 An attack upon
William J. Bryan stating that his atti-

be accounted for only on the hypothesis
That he hopes again TO be nominated at
the Baltimore convention" was given out
here to-day by the Harmon national head
quarters.
The statement declares that a success
full Democratic candidate must this year
carry Northern states as well as those
that Bryan carried in his last campaign,
and says that the Nebraskan is opposing
Governor Harmon because the latter is
strong in the North.
IT adds that Mr. Bryan is flirting with
both the Wilson and Clark booms, it being
his evident desire 10 play one against the
other in the hope of precipitating a dead
lock at Baltimore, expecting thereby that
he may stampede the convention for his
own nomination"
