WAR VETERANS MAY
HAVE A M0NUMEN
Plans Being Made To Honor Soldiers
of Past Battlcs-NIass Meeting
August 18th.

Plans having for their purpose the
purchase of the little triangular lot
just northeast of the Main street
bridge and the erection thereon of a
beautiful monument to the Indian,
Civil and Spanish war veterans have
been laid and will be given their first
impetus at mass meeting to be
held on the evening of Tuesday, Au-
gust 13. Every veteran is expected
to attend and every citizen is invited
to be present and give encouragement
to the move which has long been dis
cussed, but never before started.
Major Lee Moorhouse has been ap-
pointed chairman of committee
which will have charge of the cam
paign and will commence active work
within few days.
1t is pointed out that the little
tract of vacant land on the north side
of the bridge is unsightly now and
yet is not adapted to any use except
similar to that proposed. The plans
of the promoters of the move in
clude the purchase of this land from
the city and the subscription of funds
sufficient to erect a monument which
will be a fitting tribute to those who
have gone through the suffering and
,hardships of war out of love for their
homes and country. While the exact
type of monument has not been de-
cided upon, 1t is the intention to con-
struct a large concrete square upon
which to set an appropriate figure.
1t has also been suggested that a
fountain be included in the design.
The proposed fountain is finding
much favor among citizens who have
been apprised of the move. One
prominent merchant expressed the
sentiment that If the subscription
were made popular one, limiting
individual contributions to one dollar
the committee would have no diff.

secure a really creditable monument

Washington. Aug. 5-Acting on the
recommendation of the sub-cOmmit-
tee of the house judiciary committee
President Taft this afternoon form
ally accepted the resignation of Judge
Hanford.
Hanford sent his resignation to the
president while the sub committee
was in the midst of an investigation
in Seattle of charges against Han

the subcommittee arrived last week
and while they declared that the
charges against Hanford had been
virtually substantiated, and that the
mass of evidence uncovered forced
Hanford's resignation" it recon-
mended that it be accepted thus MAX

Chicago, ILL.,, Aug. 5.-The Pull

race against the donkey and the ele-
phant today, when Senator joseph NJ.
Dixon of Montana, raped for the ma
tional convention OF progressivcs to
come to order. The Coliseum was
packed with delegates and specta-
tors. The big hall was festooned with
red, white and blue. At enc end of
the hall were pictures OF Washing
ton Lincoln and jefferson. At the
G.hcr was a large portrait cf Colonel
Roosevelt
The convention today lacked the
thrill that accompanied the fighting
for the riders seat on the party sym
Dol. Theodore Roosevelt was the only
aspirant for the presidential nomina-
tion Compared with the republican
convention in this city and The demo-
cratic gathering at Baltimore, the
bull moose convention today appeared
to be more or less of a cut-arddricd
affair, utterly devoid of dissenslon and
fights. But a new party c)ul not be
properly born without something Of

morrow.
The speech making will last two
days. Then the nominations will be
made.
The colonels name as the progress
sive candidate for president will be
placed before the convention by w.
A. Pendergast of New York. There
will be several seconding speeches,
including Governor Hiram Johnson
of California, and John NJ. Parker a
democrat of New Orleans.
A platform which has been gone
over by Colonel Roosevelt and his
managers, is ready for adoption by
the convention. 1t is likely that this
will go through without hitch, en-
bracing planks favoring the initiative

downward revision of the tariff a
thorough corrupt practices act and di-
rect primaries in all states.
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1912-08-05

An annex will be built on each end
of the grandstand thus providing 20OO
more reserved seats or an aggregate
of 5000. An additional row of boxes
will also be constructed just in front
of the grandstand. The bleachers
which are now IL seats deep will be
extended farther back and on re-
duced incline so that they will be 20
seats deep. They will be approximately
1000 feet in length and will afford
seats for $4,000 people.
The sheds, which will be built in
the northwest corner of the park
will be $50 feet in length and will be
made permanent in character while
q large amount of corral space will
be provided.
For some time, the board of di.
rectors was in doubt as to whether
the work could be undertaken owing
to the difficulty in securing the nee.
essary lumber.

Chicago ILL.,, Aug. 5.-Just before
ed to order by Senator Dixon of Mon
tana. at noon today 1t seemed almost
certain that Governor Johnson of
California would be the vice-presi-
dental nominee. Although General
Luke Wright of Tennessee was being
advocated by the southerners for
Roosevelts running mate, a major
ity of the delegates favored the Cali
fornia executive because of his cam
paigning ability. Johnson has flatly
denied he is a candidate for the nomi-
nation but it is believed that If Roos-
evelt says the word he will fall in line.
The last word concerning the nomi-
nation rests with Roosevelt and his
choice for second place will be the
one named by the delegates.
Roosevelt's domination over the
convention will be complete. Not only
will he name a vice presidential NOM
inee and permanent chairman of the
convention, but he will decide wheth-
er the new party shall take the name

NEGROPROBLEM
IN CONVENTION
Claims Of CoIored Delegates Will
Probably Result in a TangIe
Among National Progressives.

Chicago. ILL.,. Aug. 5.--The follow
ecs of Colonel Roosevelt who feel that
he was not given a square deal at the
Chicago convention wnich renurli-
nafed President Taft for president on
:he republican ticket, met in conven-
ten here today as the national pre-
gressive party. Although tickets we're
sold from $40 to $40, prices below
thu;e which prevailed at The regular
rep Iblican convention anI at the
dor ocratic convention /, baltimore,
the Coliseum was filled with enilu-
siasiic admirers Jf the ex-presidynt
from all the states of the Union. Ii
is probable that the managers of the
national progressive party will have
some difficulty settling the claims of
some delegates from southern states,
before the convention gets down to
business, because in a few instances
separate conventions were held by
leaders of the negroes and the Lilly
White" movement From statements
already made by Senator Dixon, man.
ager for Colonel Roosevelt, there is
little doubt that the negroes will lose
their fight.

senator Dixon and Nedill Mccormick,
the Roosevelt leader in Illinois. have
had charge of the distribution and
say that the sale of tickets will de-
fray the costs of the convention
$4,000.
Policy of "lIome Rule"
Home Rule" is to be the policy
in the formation of the national pro-
gressive party. In fact, Colonel Roose-
welt has such an extensive plan for
the future of the new party that he
does not expect it to be thoroughly
worked out at the present conven-
ton. He will address the delegates at
the Coliseum tomorrow and much of
his speech which will be the long
est Mr. Roosevelt has ever made, by
the way, will be devoted to his idea of
what the national progressive party
shall be.
The convention, so far as the selec-
ton of president and vice president
is concerned, will act really as a cam
Nassing board. In the state will be
held primaries, not only for candi-
dates for president and vice presi-
dent. but for congressman, to be
elected that particular year and for
men to succeed to coming vacancies
in the senate. The primaries will not
elect delegates to the national pro-
gressive party convention. nor will
state conventions be held for that
purpose.

Mississippi contest will be settled in
a similar manner.
Women Are Present.
Before the delegates assembled the
New York delegation held a caucus
and adopted resolutions declaring
that no person should be nominated
for executive or legislative offices in
New York unless regularly enrolled
progressives.
At exactly 11:47 the Pennsylvania
delegation marched in, the first to ar
rive closely followed by Oregon,
Maryland, Kentucky. All carried
scarlet and red bandana handker-
chiefs. All seats on the floor and in
the aisles were jammed. Two hum
dred and thirty-two women, ranging
in age from Is to so marched into
the hall from the art institute. They
carried yellow banners with the words
"votes for Women"
Reverses Decision.
At noon the provisional national
committee reversed its earlier decis-
ion, deciding to oust both the Florida
delegations, giving the state no repre-

Senator Dixon named Beveridge as
temporary chairman. When the lat
ter began speaking practically every
seat was occupied. Cheering was
frequent. The temper of the dele
gates from all states seemed unani-

parties on state issues. The new party
is to be called the national progress
