and find out the sentiment of the
people" he was greeted with shout
of I'VE know it,
Then, like the beat Of great ham
mer, the crowd yelled: I'VE want
Teddy, we want Teddy"
Il think you do" said Roosevelt,
but ] want to be dead sure"
Governor Johnson of California
presided at the meeting and spoke
the republican national committee
in the contest cases. He was fol-
lowed by Senator Clapp of Mime
sofa, who offered the resolution nom
mating Roosevelt, and Mr. Fender
CAST of New York, who was to have
placed Roosevelts name before the
republican convention.
Pandemonium broke loose when
Roosevelt entered the hall, accom-.
panied by Senator Dixon and Gov.
Stubs of Kansas.
In the course Of his speech accept
said:
q ask you to go to your several
homes to find out the sentiment of
the people at home and then again
to come together. | suggest by mass
convention, to nominate for the pres
idency q progressive candidate on a
progressive platform, candidate
and platform that will enable us
to appeal to the northerner and
southerner, easterner and westerner,
republican and democrat alike in the
name Of our common American citi-
zenship.
eff you wish to make the fight |
will make it even if only one state
should support me. The only con-
dition l impose is that you shall feel
entirely free when you come together
to substitute any other man in my
place if you deem it better for the
movement, and in such case l will
give him my heartiest support

GREAT VICTORY, SAYS TAFT

Washington, June 22.-In a state
ment on his denomination at Chi
cagO, President Taft said:
fThe Importance of the great VIC
tory which has been achieved can
not be overestimated. All over this
country patriotic people are breath
ing more freely that a most serious
menace to our republican institu-
tions has been averted
1T is not necessary to speak of
the result in November or of the is
sues which will arise between the
republican and democratic parties
in the presidential campaign to fol-
low. 1t will be time enough to do
that after the action of the Balti-
more convention. II is enough now
to say that whatever may happen in
November a great victory for the re-
publican party and the United States
has already been Won"
The Watertown weekly leader. [volume] (Watertown, Jefferson County, Wis.) 1912-1917, 1912-06-28

Work Of the vigiIantes Was Neces-
sary, Though Writer Admits There
Were Exceptions.

When not engaged in robbery, this
criminal population followed other
disreputable pursuits. Gambling and
RIGHTEOUSNESS were the most conspicu-
GUS features of every mining camp,
and both were but species of robbery.
Dance houses sprung up as If by en-
chantment, and everyone who sought
an evenings recreation in them was
In some way relieved of the money he
took there. An issue involving the
destruction OF the good or bad ele-
ment actually existed at the time that
the people entered upon the work of
punishment
/ offer these remarks, not in vindi-
cation OF all Of the acts of the Vigi-
Iantes, but Of 30 many Of them as
were necessary to establish the safety
and protection Of the people. The
reader will find among the later acts
Of some of the individuals claiming to
have exercised the authority of the
vigilantes some executions Of which
he cannot approve. For these persons
] can offer no apology. Many of these
were worse men than those they exc
cuted. Some were hasty and incon-
siderate, and while firm in the belief
they were doing right, actually com
mitted grievous offenses. Unhappily
for the vigilantes, the acts OF these
men have been recalled to justify an
opinion abroad prejudicial to the
vigilante organization. Nothing could
be more unjust. The early vigilantes
were the best and most intelligent
men in the mining regions. They
said and felt that, in the absence of
all law, they must become law I'M
to themselves" or submit to the
bloody code of the banditti by which
they were surrounded, and which was
increasing in numbers more rapidly
than themselves-Nath Pitt
Langford, "Vigilante Days and Ways"
The Watertown weekly leader. [volume] (Watertown, Jefferson County, Wis.) 1912-1917, 1912-06-28
TAFT AND SHERMAN NOMINATED
ROOSEVELT HEADS NEW PARTY

certed than when the Hadley dem
onstration started on Wednesday.
Six minutes after the start of the
demonstration the Roosevelt dele
gates started a parade through the
hall with their state standards. Kan
sas led the procession and every one
Of the Roosevelt states fell into line
behind them. There was scuffle at
the Illinois place, where some of the
Taftites tried to prevent the state
standard being dragged into the fray.
After twenty minutes of uproar,
the police began requesting the dele
gates to sit down and they did SO re-
luctantly.
The platform was submitted to the
convention at 3:35 O'Clock, former
Vice President Fairbanks reading
the committees majority report.
Delegate Walter C. Owen of Wis
consin read the only minority report
the declaration of principles adopt
ed earlier in the week by the La
Toilette republicans 1t urged ma
tional initiative, referendum and re-
YAH, Llli Luc 1SCdll VI IHS
judiciary. Owen moved to substi-
tute the La Toilette platform for the
majority document
Fairbanks Immediately moved to
table that motion, and this was car
ried on a roll call vote, 666 to So.
The platform favors a protective
tariff but says that there should be
some reductions, declares that the
recall of judges is unnecessary, ia
VOrS treaties with Russia and other
countries to protect American citi-
Zens abroad, promises an inquiry into
the high cost of living and urges laws
to increase the safety of ocean
travel.
The nominating of candidates fol-
lowed the adoption of the platform
reported to the convention by the
platform committee
Walter G. Harding of Ohio pre-
sented the name of President Taft
to the convention. M. B. Oldbrich of
Wisconsin made the chief nominal
ing speech for La Toilette.
Big demonstrations followed the
presentation of each name.

In 1863 the Massachusetts commits
Eioners receiving the submission of
Wells, Cape Porpus" and Saco, or
dered the inhabitants of. those towns
to make the highway from house to
house" and clear and fit it for foot and
cart. This was known as the road
by the sea-
The commissioners themselves
could not go beyond Wells for the lack
OF road. Kittery and York were also
ordered to make a straight and con-
venient way along East for man and
horse"
All land travel then was afoot or on
horseback, with an occasional rude OK
cart. There was no such thing as
horse and wagon in all Maine, nor was
there stage line there till 100 years
later.

the delegates who had been instruct
ed to come to the republican national
convention and nominate Roosevelt.
With them were the contestants
whose causes had been thrown out
by the national committee.
They were determined, enthusiast
tic and they were fianked by a great
gathering of Roosevelt supporters,
shouting, cheering, singing, scream
ing, defiant crowd that could say

significant~<w1en viewed in it's rela-
