DELEGATES
STILL FOR THE COLONEL
Return from Chicago Intact, Despite
the Steam Roller, and Predict
Roosevelt's Election.

Charles III. More, who. with Jas.
B. McAllen, represented the Cam
eron county republicans at Chicago
last week, returned home yesterday.
Both Mr.. McAllen and Mr.. More.
since their return have been the
center of a large and intercs cd
number of inquring friends, who
are especially interested in knowing
just how the political steam roller
apparatus as Chicago affected them.
Apparently the contact with the big
machine did them no harm, and both
appear to have been, in fact, both
mentally and physically imperiors
to it's ravages.
Both went away Roosevelt men,
aud both came back even stauncher
advocates of the Colonel than before.
Mr.. McAllen said yesterday to a
Herald reporter that the feeling in
favor of Roosevelt among the mass
of the people at Chicago was intense
that Taft was nominated largely
by the aid of delegates from the
Southern states which, being demo
cratic, will have no voice in the
election of a president, and that
when it comes. to a vote of the peo-
pie of the country, he believes that
Roosevelt will be their choice by a
large majority.
According to their sizing up Of
the situation, Taft has no chance
at all, and the new Roosevelt party
will in all probability have sufficient
strength to elect its standard bearer
The Brownsville delegates heard
the Colonel talk for the first time,
at Chicago, and they were much i'm
pressed with his personality and his
minute knowledge of the details Of
the political situation. They consid-
er him a wonderful man.
they say that, although the
Roosevelt plan of campaign has not
been given out, the colonel has 1t
all prepared and that he will see
that it is pushed rapidly forward
and its policies made clear to the
people.
When seen yesterday by a Herald
reporter, Mr. More was surrounded
by a coterie of friends who were
listening open-mouthed to his ac-
count of how it all happened. Mr..
More came home wearing a Teddy
badge, bearing the suggestive motto:
Thou shalt not steal. He says shat
what the Taft people call steam
roller he and Teddy call robbery.
Mr.. More says Taft will be the tail
ender in the presidential race.
One of the statements made by the
delegate from Brownsville Is that
this will be the last nominating con-
vention in this country.
Judge John c. Scott of Corpus
Christi, according to Mr.. More, Is
aslo much more Of Teddy man, II
possible, than formerly.

enough votes TO nominate.
That the convention will nominate
a progressive and adopt a progress
sive platform seemed certain tonight.
Some of the leaders frankly said
they resented Bryan's assumption to
dictate the temporary craftsmanship.
Bryan, however, remains stalwart
factor in the convention, and may
be given authority to write the plat
form
| AS to the presidential situation
nothing is more tangible than talk
and claims tonight.
Senator Kern received one vote
for the temporary chairmanship to-
day. California gave him that.
Massachusetts gave Senator O'Gor-
man three, his total. Texas voted
solidly for Bryan.

Colonel Bryan left the convention

Associated Press.
Baltimore, Md, June 25-William
Jennings Bryan met defeat at the
hands of the democratic national
convention today and in the opinion
Of many of the party leaders elimi
mated himself from the race for the
presidential nomination.
The vote by which former Judge
Alton B. Parker of New York was
elected temporary chairman over
Bryan, $40 to SO, is interpreted to-
night in many ways The Clark adj
herents are claiming his nomination
and many believed today It is to be
either Champ Clark or Nrk
horse"
The talk of Bryan, however, has
not ceased by any means. Some of
his friends say today's vote is no
test, and that many Of his most ar
dent supporters were compelled by
circumstances to vote against him.
/ On the other hand they claim the
vote of $40 given to Bryan indicated
that he held the veto power in the
convention, which puts him in a po-
sition of dominance as to who is to
be the nominee
Many of the Clark delegates open
| ly threw their support to the anti
Bryan forces This is regarded as
opening a breach between Bryan
and Clark which may cause the
Bryan supporters to make a bitter
fight against Clark.
Clark Men Confident.
J Taken on the other hand the vote
! of so many of the Clark adherents
for Parker is taken as distinct bid
for the support of the conservatives.
The conservative element is practic-
ally prepared to accept radical or
progressive candidate. They admit
that to name a conservative would
be to strengthen Roosevelt in his or
ganization of a third party The
recent turn of affairs is regarded as
decidedly favorable to Clark.
The straight out Wilson delegates
today threw their support solidly 70
Bryan. This the leaders figure will
make the conservative element
choose Clark in preference to vii
son.
There Is a report current tonight
that New York's 80 votes will e
solid for Clark. New York voted fol

Parker the majority OF its woes an'

souri, and New York is rumored. Tn

 "A tremendous power has grown up in this country in the past few years" he said. Again and again it has proved strong enough to nominate candidates for both political parties It rules in the organization of legis- lative bodies, state and national and in the committee which frame legis- lation. Its influence is seen in the appointment of prosecuting officers and the selection of judges. In busi- ness it has crippled or destroyed com petition.

JUROR FEARED THE DINNER
Conscientious Man Thought Unusually Good Meals Would Keep Him
 From Thinking Straight.

The most conscientious man ever knew served on a jury with me sev eral years ago" said the experienced juror. Tt was a criminal case and the jurors were imprisoned in a hotel during the trial Al our first dinner the man with a conscious refused to eat the excellent meal provided.
 "1f should fill my stomach with all that hifalutin grub he said. I should not be able to think straight. l am not used 10 it at home No man Is able 10 think normally immediately after a radical change in fare It takes several weeks to adjust his men tai attitude to his physical state. For that reason. every man who serves on a jury ought to eat exactly the kind Of food he Is used to al home. even if 1t takes half dozen cooks to pre- pare it if that was done. there would be fewer freak verdicts in this town.
 There was so much sound sense in the doctrine that the II other jurors, had a feeting fancy for sticking to own accustomed simple fare. but the feshpots of the hotel overcame their scruples and for three weeks We feast ed sumptuously. Also. to sustain the conscientious mans theory, we re- turned what the public called freak verdict"

! NEWLYWEDS AND THEIR BABY [ Now gentlemen said the owners [ to Messrs Hoffman and West, when | the contract to write The Newlyweds and Their Baby" was signed, we
 wish you to consider well the three principal characters of the play. You have a trio that all the world loves Q doting young couple and their first
 born. Make them as funny as you
 please, but remember they are human

 child. Napoleon Newlywed. is the or
 bit of their lives. While the fun must
 be fast and furious, it must be whole

 play is a delight. Every minute brings a laughable line or situation only to
 be offset by a bright song or dance. You should see the first appearance of tlie baby. To get the right idea, you must know that when the plat begins, the Newlyweds are giving one Of their numerous birthday parties in honor of the baby. They generally have birthday party for him at least once a month for in the case of Napoleon NewIywed, a mere yearly birthday would be entirely inadequate. The party in question is being given to UT veil a monument erected on the spot where Napoleon was sitting when he discovered his first toothl But to pro- ceed. The guests are assembled, half hundred of them. Papa Newlywed makes a speech and calls for pretty Nurse Gwendolyn to bring in Napo- leon Newiywed, the greatest baby in the world. The nurse rushes in with the horrifying news that the baby has disappeared, What" shriek the fond parents in unison. The trembling sX- plantations of the nurse are lost in the uproad Run for tbe doctors, Tele- phone for the police, Turn in the fire alarm. Some laundering guest switch es off the lights The confusion dies away. All is quiet. The music IS low and sweet. A steady beam of light appears on the heavy portieres al back. A tiny foot parts the curtains followed by a dimiutive body crawl ing backward with baby skirts in wild disaSray. Slowly the baby turns shows his little round face. Iisps his 1, cheery dada, and as the audience roars it's delight, he is seized by his anxious parents and the fun begins again.
