Fight Over Thirteenth.

Tho Thirteenth district brought the
real fireworks. The time limit was taken
off and all fell to as merriy as knights
OF old in a general melee.
Tho whole fuss was over a half vote.
Both sides admitted that A. c.. Graham
had been elected chairman, through a
system of fractional voting that no one
ever understood, by vote Of T0l TO ia.
Then the Taft people named their dele
gates by viva voce vote and left the hall,
after which the Rooseveltians named
their delegates.
The Rooseveltians offered a batch OF
affidavlts claiming that II Ia votes were
cast against the Taft men and that three
counted for Taft did not vote. That Of
fer brought on the big wrangle, The
Taft side shouted that the affidavlts
should not be admitted. AS they were
new matter" and were not mentioned
in the briefs as they should have been
under the rules, The Rooseveltians
claimed they were conclusive proofs OF
the rights of their men and must be ad-
mltted. Everybody talked and all made
charges, A stranger might have thought
a regular meeting of the j. A. r. was
in progress.
