battle cry OF I'VE want Teddy shift
ing it to Wen have Teddy"
While the demonstration was
spreading through the hotel corridors
and two thousand people crowded in
to Michigan boulevard were demand
ing speech, the colonel received
word of the action of the Taft mem
bers on the credentials committee
amending their rules. He was then
in conference with his chief heuten
ants, secluded in his private apart
ments.
Quick to see the strategy of the
Taft move, Roosevelt ordered his sup
porters on the credentials committee
back into the session of that body
with Instructions to "go through the
deliberations with a view to present
ing a minority report of the conven-
ton at the conclusion of the hearing
of the contests
There was no idea on the part OF
either Roosevelt or his lieutenants
that there would be any change of the
minority of the committee on the con-
tested delegation.
The move of sending the men back
into the committee was merely a stra-
tegitic maneuver in the struggle for
preliminary advantage. 1t meant that
unless some break came in the COM
mittee which made it impossible for
Roosevelt longer to restrain the more
radical of his followers, the actua
break, now regarded as inevitable,
would come upon the taking Of the
vote to reject the Roosevelt support
er's minority report in the credentials
committee.
Governor Johnson, Of California, Is
one of the Roosevelt leaders most
anxious to precipitate real bolt and
form new party.
While acquiescing in the Rooseve,t
program of maneuvering for parlia-
mentary advantage to secure the
stamp of regularity for the Roosevelt
party, Johnson personally favors a
clean break in the old organization

State Convention Of the Iowa Aerie
Are Holding an Interesting
Convention in Burilns-

KEoKUK IS REPRESENTED
Burlington Papers Make Frequent
Reference to the Part That
keokuk Members Are
Taking.

Keokuk has quite a large and a
very lively bunch of Eagles attending
the Iowa State Aerie convention In
Burlington. The delegates made his
tory yesterday and as a result there
was born the Iowa Aerie,
Heretofore the state association has
been limited in its power. More on
the order Of social organization, it
had no legislative power, and it was
not until Iowa took the lead and made
the fight in the Grand Aerie that
states rights" was recognized and
the various state aeries granted that
power commensurate with their i'm
portance.
