MADE ELOQUENT SPEECH
The most eloquent speechrnade
before the Republican national
convention was that by Hiram
johnson, governor of California,
yesterday.
Johnson closed the debate for
the Roosevelt faction in demand
ing that the convention unseat
theTaft delegates from the fourth
California district by the steam
roller of the national committee.
Before Johnson's speech, the
lowest majority Taft had had on
roll call was rs. Johnson's talk
lowered that majority to 2. He
said:
"This principle in question is
greater than the determination of
a district contest. The question
strikes at the very rock on which
Republican progressiveness is
founded in the United States.
"The question is the one which
shall be the big issue from now
until November: Shall the peo-
b1e rule?'
while my friends of New
York may laugh at the progress
sive policies that have come out
of the west, every thinking man
must realize that revolution is on,
and that progressiyeism is sure
'to-triumph. -,.

can the scenes you have witness
ed in. this convention during the
past three days be avoided.
We have had a revolution in
California. When it occurred
there was. a certain section of the
Republican party IN control The
revolution placed the progressive
wing of the party in control.
That wing had the right to-
send 20 delegates here to do as
they pleased. But in December,
l911ya special session of the legis-,
lature was called to enact pres
idential primary bill. This bill
was to show that the progressives
of California, like the progress
sives everywhere, were big
enough to give the people of Cal
ifornia what you are not big
enough to give US, the right to
say who should receive their sup
port.
This bill passed unanimously.
It was put into effect, and we car
ried the preferential primary.
Every candidate for the presi
dency subscribed to that law.
The telegram of the president of
the United States, accepting the
provisions of the California law,
is on file in the office of the secre-
tary of state of California.
Every faction had a square
deal. Every faction had chance
to win. The progressives won by
1900.

Opinion Is He Can Not Take
Soil Commissioners Office
Before Next June.

The election Of James d. Price to he

today to a heated discussion in the

his term. The general opinion is that
he can not take Office until after the
Legislature canvasseS the returns. which
viii be at the opening of the session
next June. giving him Office about
July /.

The act creating the commissioner Of

this ruling, the returns electing Mr.
