OF recommendation TO the con.

jority Of the delegates to National
conventions has been heartily in fav.
or Of making a change, the dihicnI.
~ has been that they did not de
site to abandon the congressional
district as uuit Of representation
The Southern districts have repre-.
sentation in Congress according to
population, including the Negroes
Then the Negroes are dislranchised
The natural result is that in ma nv
Southern districts there are very
few Republican votes, and yet they
have full quota OF delegates Now

going to submit to the committee

Nearing The End

WASHINGTON, May 1.-THE
makeup Of The Republican National
Con vention, so far as the original
selection of delegates can be determ
iped, will be practically settled with
in a week
Including eight chosen today at
district conventions in Texas and
Arizona, over 200 delegates are to
be selected in the eight days ending
next Saturday. About 100 will
then remain to be chosen, including
48 from Ohio and "a from New
Jersey.
The widely divergent claims OF
The Taft and Roosevelt managers
make it apparent, however, that
the determination of the actual
control of the convention is impos.
sible in advance of the meeting of
the Republican National Conven-
ton June 6. The committee will
take up at that time contests invol-
wing the seats of at least 164 dele
gates, and it is not unlikely that
additional contest cases will be an
nounced by the time the committee
begins work.
Up to this m orning 7S6 of the /.
07S delegates to Chicago had been
chosen. according to Roosevelt esti-
mates, while the Taft forces record
twenty less. The differences arise
over Maryland. where the Taft
managers declare the control OF six.
teen delegates will not be declared
until the State convention next
Thursday. and over Kansas. where
the Roosevelt records show that
fourteen delegates have been chosen
and the Taft records show only ten
elected.

COIOred Boy Hangs Himse II

Considerable excitement was caus.
ed Wednesday morning by the re-
port that a colored man had been
found hanging from a tree in East
London. Upon investigation it was
found to be Willie Jackson Of color

he returned, and. it is supposed was
swinging on a rope which was tied

GETTING READY
FOR CONTESTS
Unusual Number To Be
Decided Before the Big
Convention at Chicago
Republican National Com
mifteemen TO meet there
Ten Days Prior to Assem-
bioac of Delegates

The Republican National Com
mittee will meet in Chicago Thurs
day afternoon, June 6, to decide
contests among delegates to- the
Republican National convention,
In relation to the date of opening
the convention, June is, this will
be the earliest meeting held for many
years by the committee. Indications
that there will be an unusual mum.
Der of contests this year were con-
sidered by Victor Rosewater, the
committees acting chairman, Will
liam Hayward, the Secretary, in
sending out the call for the carly
meeting of the committee.
Mr.. Hayward also announced
that he would place before the com
mittee plan upon which he has
been working for some time that
will affect the representation of the
south in Republican national con.
ventions. The principal objecti on
to plans previously suggested he
said, was the elimina ton of the
congressional district as the unit of
representation. The plan he would
submit TO the committee would
change the basis of representation,
he said, and still retain the congress
ional district as the unit.
Following is the official call for
the meeting, a copy of which has
bsen mailed TO every member of the
committee:
Chicago, May s, 1912
The members of the Republican
National Committee are hereby cal.
led to meet at 2 p. m. Thursday,
June 6, 1912, in the Coliseum build
ing, in the city of Chicago. for the
purpose of making the temporary
roll of delegates for the national
convention, and to transact such
ther business as may properly come
before it, In view of the import
ance OF the work, full attendance
is desired.
Victor Rosewater, Acting Chair
man.
William Hayward, Secretary
"What we want to do, il possible "
Mr.. Hayward said, ''is to get the
committee together early enough
to have sufficient time to consider
these contests deliberately aud avoid
holding night sessions which were
necessary before. The sessions will
probably be executive, as heretofore
and the contests will probably be
taken up, as before. in alphabet
cal order by States. Four years ago
thirty minutes was allowed for the
presentation of contests over dele.
gates at.large and not to exceed 6f-
teen minutes tor district delegates.
Consolidation of district and at
large delegates where the issues
were identical was permitted, thus
frightening the time allowed for
the whole. This year we hope to
give the contestants a little more
time. We have received some no
tees OF contests but nowhere near
as many as reported by the news
papers. Also we have not received
anywhere all the credentials from
abe vari Gus delegates in districts
and States where there is no con-
test. However. we expect to receive
many more yet, as they have until
twenty days before the convention
meets to file either contests or cred.

Although a limited program of legisla-

urged upon Congress by the Commis-
sioners of the District during the short
session. it will include provision for a
law authorizing the use of public school

Citations and other civic bodies.
Immediately following the convening of

STILL WORLDS BREAD BASKET.
Over 10O,O00,O00 Bushels of Wheat
Exported by U. S. in Ten Months.

The United States still is the bread
basket of the world according to the
bureau of foreign and domestic commerce,

While the exports of corn and meat fell
of sharply more than l00,o0o,0D bushels
of wheat We're sent abroad during the
past ten months. as against S3,OOo,0o0
during all of last year.
The heavy wheat exports were offset
somewhat by the decline in other farm
products The United States as provid-
er. however maintained its position, for
the report proceeds:
While the products of the farm Will
SHOW but little change in the general
export record of 1912. those of the factory
show marked advance. the value of the
manufactures exported in the period for
which figures are now available exceed
ing by more than $100Ooo,OuO those of
the corresponding months of last year.
and indicating that the grand total or
manufactures exported In the full year
of 1912 will considerably exceed $1,000
900 and form about one-half of the
total exports.
