LORIMER CASE
RESUMED TO-DAY

Washington. D. c., July 5.--With
Senator Myers of Montana ready to
speak on the Lorimer election case
today, the contest over the junior ILL.
rois senator's right to his seat entered
its last state. The senate has agreed
to vote on the case finally on the "leg.
islative day of July 6" but as many
speeches are to be made including one
by Senator Lorimer, the vote will
probably not be reached before the
middle Of next week.
Soon after the senate met today,
however, Senator Myers waived his
right to speak that the naval appro-
priation bill might be taken up and
will speak tomorrow.

Missouri Governor To Take
No Part in Formation of
Roosevelt Party; Colonel
Talks on Trust Planks.

Jefferson City, Mo-, July 5. =
whether there will be third party
organized in Missouri" said Gov. Had
ley on his return to his home today, Il
do not know. l know, however, there is
no occasion for any such organization
as the republican party In Missouri Is
thoroughly progressive organization
and will so continue. have no inten-
ton of taking any part in the lorna
ton of third party.
81 understand Col. Roosevelt's sup.
porters will place an electoral ticket
on the ballot in the interest of mis-
candidacy. While l expect to take no
part in the preparation of such a bal
lot, it will be subject for future con-
sideration of those interested in the
success of the republican party In
Missouri and the. principles for which
1t stands as to whether the name of
the republican state and local candi-
dates cannot be placed upon this bal
lot as we'll as upon the regular repub-
lican ticket"
Trust platforms Wrong, Says r. r.
Oyster Bay, N. Y, July 5.-"The
platforms of both republican and
democratic parties call for rigid en-
forcement of the antitrust law. They
are wrong So declared Theodore
Roosevelt today.
The former president said that IN
his campaign he would attack Dotn
parties on this score. He intends to
take the position which he outlined IN
his Osawattomie, Kas., speech TWO
years ago, when he said that the great
business enterprises of the country
had come to stay and should be con-
trolled by means of close supervision
by the national government. To at
tempt to abolish them, he said today,
twas futile.
Col. Roosevelt also denied report
which appeared this morning that he
had offered the nomination Tor the
vice presidency to Judge Ben B. Lind
say Of Denver.
Outlines His Campaign.
A campaign along novel lines was
sketched in bare outline by Colonel
Roosevelt. AS the candidate Of the new
progressive party for the presidency,
Col. Roosevelt intends to make an ap-
peal largely to the FARMER ana the
wage worker on the ground that neith-
er the democratic nor the republican
party is attempting seriously in this
campaign to deal with the fundamental
economic and social conditions which
confront the country. 1t is from the
farmer and the wage-earner that Col
ouel Roosevelt feels that he has obtain
ed his strength in the past. 1t Is to them
that he intends to appeal now.
Colonel Roosevelt said that Senator
Dixon, of Montana, who managed his
campaign for the republican presiden-
tial nomination, in all probability would
be his campaign manager in his fight
at the head of the new party.
The former president intends to
break away from the conventional lines
of conducting campaign. He hopes to
lead what he terms peoples govern
ment.
