WHO'LL BE: NOMIN.iTEDo

While tho results in Ohio are graf

Colonel Roosevelt's candidacy for he
presidency, we are not confident tnat
the choice u ia republican standard

thusiasn and campaign claims neith-

talked throughout the state, the votes
are traded to the Roosevelt organ
ization in return for the federal pat
ronage i'm the event of his election
We do not credit this rulnor for the
two reasons that men like r. NJ. Pol
lock are not in politics for pie and
that Roosevelt himself has not shown
anv disposition TO trade prospective
trona for support, even whera
much moro was at stake than the ten
votes North Dakota could give him.
The real decision of the matter as
TO who shall be nominated lies with
the national committee. There are
1S4 contested delegates-tllat is
there are that number in which both
Taft and Roosevelt delegates have
l'ecn named. 1t is possible out of this
81 to seat enough delegates to noni-

SOCIALISTS OUT OF HAND.

Victor ferger has lost his half
hearted fight against the tear down
The flag" or anarchist element Of the
socialist party. Berger. whose plat
form is political revolution without
violence, gives way to Haywood.
whose platform is industrial revolu-
ton by violence. Milwaukee loses
her fame as the stronghold of anti
Americanism. and San Diego becomes
the pillar OF light. Free speech"
meaning an unbridled tongue in Civ
ing utterance to %disloyalty and law
lessness. has been adopted as the war
cry Of the campaign. The stars and
stripes. torn and trampled as not fit
for the Industrial Workers of the
World to congregate under. have
beer displaced as the national colors
by the flag Of riot and revolution.
Law and order is set at defiance by
the national convention at Indian
apolis and money voted in aid Of the
dangerous agitators at San Diego.
In order that the public may see
that nothing herein has been over
stated. but h a the country is facing
a real and rapidly growing peril. the
policies and methods Of the Industrial
Workers of the World as outlined in
the organizations charter of the new
socialism is set forth as follows:
THE question of right and wrong
doe not concern us.
"No terms made with an employer
are final.
"All peace. SO long as the wage
system lasts. is but an armed truce.
At any favorable opportunity the
struggle for more control of industry
is renewed.
THE Industrial Workers Of the
World maintain that nothing will be
conceded by the employers except
that which we have the power to
take and hold by the strength OF our
organization. Therefore, we seek no
agreements with the employers.
Its basic principle makes the In
dustrial Workers of the World a fight
ing organization. 1t commits the
union to an unccasing struggle
against the private ownership and
control Of industry.
There is but one bargain that the
Industrial Workers of the World will
make with the employing class
industry to the organized workers."
There is no m%istaking the terms
and temper Of this declaration Of
war. That the men who proclaimed
this state of siege in the industrial
world are capable Of going to the
lengths necessary to give 1t full eff
feet il being startlingly dcmonstrat.

Barre City, Two Barre Town Teams and
williamstown Teams Entered.

Representatives of the Graniteville
Athletic club, Williamstown Athletic
club and the East Barre Athletic club,
gathered in the Graniteyille A. C. rooms
last night and adopted plans for the
formation of league to be composed
of four teams. As there were two teams
from Barre desirous of entering, vote
was cast, whereby the Blue Sox were
chosen to the number of three. The
committees of the clubs then went in
business session, with NJ Sullivan of
Grahiteville presiding Officers of the
league were elected, who are as fol-
low: President, NJ. Sullivan, Granite
vile; secretary and treasurer, William
Mcdonald, East Barre. The following
are the directors that were chosen: Mar
tin McAllister, Williamstown; Roark and
Mcdonald, East Barre; Russo and Sui
livan, Graniteville; Hoar and L. Nc
Kay, Blue Sox. The new. league will
be called the Sunset league. Two games
week will be played by each team,
Tuesdays and Fridays. The adoption of
schedule was left with the board of
directors, who have not yet completed
the arrangement of games. In the course
of few days the schedule will be Civ
en- out. 1t is expected that the league
will open the fourth of June and close
on the twentieth day of August.

The Tuna Now Lies in the Sea
Three Miles Off Atlantic City
LIFEBOATS ARE STANDING BY
1T Is Believed That the Vessel Will Be
Gotten Off Safely-Thousands of
People Are Watching the
Unusual Spectacle.


Atlantic City, n. j., May 1.-THE
submarine boat Tuna, which ran aground
three miles out to sea, lies easy to-day,
and it is believed that the boat will be
gotten off without serious damage. The
sea is much quieter now, although a
stiff wind is blowing. Four lifeboats
are standing by, ready to render as
sistance, and a revenue cutter is ex-
pected to arrive to help float the sub
marine. Thousands of persons are
watching the unusual spectacle.
Federal guards landed IA members of
her crew. Capt Dannehauer and four
of the crew refuse to leave the vessel,
despite her serious predicament, and
have wired through the government
guards for a revenue cutter.
Capt. Dannehauer, Chief Electrician
Parks, Engineers Ecklin and Wilson, and
Hand, sailor, remained aboard the
craft.

MEMBERSHIP CAMPAIGN
EXCEEDED THE HOPES
Barre Board of Trade Got a Big Boost
As the Result Of the Efforts Put
Forth Yesterday and Results
Are Not All In.

Energetic work by the publicity COM
-mittee OF the Barre Board of Trade all
day yesterday and during part OF the
evening boosted the membership of the
organization from l40 up to several over
400. 1t was an enthusiastic campaign
and the solicitors met ready response
wherever they went. The rainiest day
of the season made the work not one
whit less vigorous and the pedestrians,
team drivers and motorists who can
vassed the city, all bent on the same
mission, were almost everywhere re-
ceived with open arms. The highest
hopes of the men who planned and car
ried out the campaign did not extend
above the 400 mark; but at the head
quarters of the campaign committee this
morning it was believed that at least so
more names would be added to the mem
bership roll.
One of the gratifying features of the
days work was the eagerness with which
many awaited the visit of the commit
tees. It seemed to be the single minded
sentiment of the male population of
arrived and that the palmy days of a
greater boom than any other city in Yer
mont has ever realized are about to re-
turn. Enthusiasm on the part of those
approached was the general rule and not
the exception. Back of the 260 men who
were ready to deposit the membership
fee Of $4 is vast current of sentiment
from people who are either unable or
ineligible to subscribe The women con-
stitute the ineligible class, and they are
thus debarred for the simple reason that
they were not asked to contribute. But
they are back of the project with a whole
soul and their support is one of the
things that the publicity committee is
banking upon in the work of the fu-
ture
When all of the odds and ends Of the
are cleared up it is confidently
believed that the membership of Barre's
Board of Trade will mount to the round
number of 450. With this enrolment.
the Granite City can boast of one of
the largest boards of trades in the state
and more than that, it can point to
nublic that started in yester-
day to ,ek its civic organization to
the last ditch. After yesterdays cam
paign. the Board of Trade has a sub
stantial sum in hand to prosecute its
work of advertising Barre and its prod
ucts The money is a welcome adjunct
to the mission which the members are
performing but the men who constitute
the moving spirit in the body, believe
that greater essential than money was
secured yesterday when the public dug
down so literally to further the work
Of the board and also promised through
its enrolment that its moral and ma
terial support should not be withdrawn.

IMPORTANT CASES
WERE ARGUED
In Vermont Supreme Court, One Being
Thompson Starrett Company VS..
Ellis Granite Company.

Hearing of cases was completed in
Vermont supreme court at Montpelier
last evening, one Of the cases being that
of the Thompson Starrett company
against the Ellis Granite company of
Northfield. petition to recommit to the
master his report on the matter of fore
closure. After a conference it was agreed
that the case be submitted on briefs,
to be submitted by the defense in Is
days from date and by the plaintiff Is
days thereafter, for a decision on the
matter of rehearing.
Another case heard Yesterday was
that of H. Fl. Powers VS.. the Rutland
railroad, motion for rehearing. At the
opening of the present term of supreme
court an opinion was rendered, reyers-
ing the Judgment of the lower court and
giving Judgment for the defendant. The
lower court gave II. Fl. Powers $2l ,l76,
claimed as balance due as salary as gen
eral counsel for the railroad. Chief
Judge Rowell and Judge g. NJ. Powers
retired from the bench while the case
was under consideration, Chief Superior
Judge W. w. Miles occupying the seat
of Judge Powers.
1t is the contention of the plaintiff
that when the case was argued in su-
preme court, Chief Judge Bowel was
the owner of stock in the New York
Central railroad, which held a control
ling interest in the stock of the Rutland
road. Mr.. Powers contends that these
facts disqualified Judge Rowell from
sitting on the case, Alexander Dunnett
and Attorney f. w. Lawrence for the
railroad concede the facts set forth, but
claim they do not affect the present
case.
The last case argued was that of vii.
liam Paige against J. William Mccarthy
of Windsor, which was set to the heel
of the docket at the opening of court.
The plaintiff claims to have sustained
, injuries from falling through hole in
the floor Of the stable of the defendant
while he was employed there. He was
given verdict of $50 in the lower court.
Exceptions were taken on matters of
admission of evidence.
