Some day they will not be here to plan ana

cease to be remembered and observed? Were
that question submitted to the people today 1t is
certain that the votes against remembrance and
observance would be too few for enumeration.
The soldiers have led the way: they have shown
the people how to plan and execute for a sue
cessful observance Of the day. There have been
not a few but thousands OF deeply Interested par

Want Presidential Nominee to Go To
Chicago or Retire-Refuses to
Do Either

Des Moines, Iowa, June 10.-A
special to the Daily Tribune. says
The task of working for delegates
between Roosevelt and Taft can be
judged from the fact that Sen.
CummIns has been receiving appeals
by telegraph to go to Chicago. These
appeals have come from Sen. Borah
Dixon, and other Roosevelt leaders.
The Roosevelt leaders want Cummins
to retire. Cummins has refused to 60
to Chicago, or retire.
Senator Cummins believed now that
he has entered the race and if there
should be a deadlock, he cannot just
ly be asked to retire now. He does
not care TO have it said that he enter
ed as a stalking horse.
