Auburn, June 19.-Twin calves
were born yesterday on the Guern-
sey dairy OF II. d. Parker here when
100 people were viewing the silos
and sanitary conditions of the farm
Everyone broke away from the in
spection of the silos and fastened
to the hospital ward of the dairy
where the young calves bawled.
After the excitement was over the
visitors turned their attention to
the speakers of the day. c. II. Hin
man, director of the farm extension
work of the State Agricultural col
lege, spoke upon the construction
of silos and advocated that all farm
ers build these structures this sum-
mer. He said that all dairymen
should feed their stock $50 days in
the year with ensilage which is
stored in the silos.
After learning all about the
slos, the next thing on the pro-
gram was the following of the pro-
cesses which the milk goes through

day voted for Root. In Pennsylvania
four delegates instructed in the

Root for temporary chairman, feel
ing that the primary Instructions
did not bind them in the matter of

a total of % delegates from the
primary states who have openly an
nounced that they will vote for
Roosevelt.
These % votes deducted from
the 55S votes cast for Root for tenn
porary chairman leaves only 536
votes for Taft, being four short of
majority. Besides these instructed
Roosevelt delegates from the pri-
mary states there are delegates from
at least six other states who voted
for Root yesterday who are openly
avowed Roosevelt delegates and
who will vote for his nomination"

and that the residents in the irri-
CATION district did not favor the con-
dftional contract, subsequent upon
which there was be an inves-

the result of the election held in this

to facilitate the voting, the district

small majority and the result from

By totaling the results from the
separate voting places it was found
that the measure fell through.
If the election had carried, engi-
neers would have gone Immediately

the amount of water that could have
been obtained. The land holders
under the district said that there

Chicago, June 19.-"We have
them whipped" said Senator Dixon,
manager of the Roosevelt campaign,
after the convention had elected
Senator Root temporary chairman.
THE vote yesterday afternoon
proves it. 1t demonstrates beyond
a doubt the impossibility of Taft's
nomination"
The senator did not appear at all
disappointed. He rushed around
the Roosevelt headquarters from
caucus room to caucus room insist
ing that events of the next few i'm
portant days would tell different
story.

DROWNED BABE
FALSE ALARM

Fort Lupton, June 19.-"Come
here quick" cried teamster work
ing along the bank of the Platte
river this morning. Other men
came running and when they look
ed in the direction of the pointing
finger of the one who called them
they were Mortified to see baby
tloating in the middle of the muddy
river. Springing into action they
ran to the bend of the river in
order to reach the child, but the
small bundle could not be grasped
Running along the bank they kept
abreast OF the floating bit OF white
and then after trying frantically to
reach it found that what they sup
posed to be baby in the stream
was only the long dress of an infant
caught on some barbed wire and
floating upon fence post.
The Platte river is higher today
than at any time of the year and is
running rapidly 1t is expected
that 1t will be out OF its banks IN
some places before night.

Yesterday Afternoons Session

Coliseum, Chicago, June l9-The
republican convention late yesterday
afternoon elected Elihu Root tenn
porary chairman. The vote is
victory for President Taft.
The election of temporary chair
man came amid scenes of intense
excitement. The vote was close,
and the outcome was in doubt al
most until the end of the roll call
The vote by states was taken after
a long series of speeches nominating
and seconding the candidates.
Before the vote for temporary
chairman was taken. Lawrence Y.
Sherman of Illinois, attempted to in
troduce the resolution agreed upon
.,-onday night by the Roosevelt dele
gates as follows:
Resolved: That no election of
temporary or other officers of this
convention and no motion, resolu
tion or other procedure shall be
taken as the act of this convention,
or have any effect. unless it shall
receive on roll call the affirmative
vote of five hundred and forty dele
gates whose seats are uncontested
and this resolution shall govern and
be in force during the temporary
until the permanent organization
thereof shall have been effected"
Rosewater, pounding his gavel,
declared the resolution out of order.
Sherman demanded to be heard and
the disorder which had been SO
prevalent during the session broke
out anew.
Sherman shouted, the delegates
shouted and Rosewater pounded the
table. This performance was con-
tinued for several minutes.
Meanwhile, Delegate Lee Gates of
California had the floor protesting
in advance against the votes of the
delegates from the ninth Alabama
district.
Secretary Hayward then an
nounced that the roll call would be
called, not by states, but by indi-
vidual delegates, and amid an up
roar the clerk began to call the
names.
The first five Alabama delegates
voted for Root, but the sixth man
called, Byron Y. Trammell. rose and
waving his hat, shouted "McGov-
ern''.
The Roosevelt supporters cheereo
loudly.
Alabama's vote was recorded, ~
for Root; for McGovern.
When Arizona was reached Fran
els J. Heney arose in his place and,
shouting. through megaphone.
sought in vain to interrupt the roll
call to object to the votes of the
Arizona delegates seated by the ma
tional committee.
Aizona's six votes went to Root
and the call went on.
Arkansas gave Root II. McGov-
ern 1, and then California was
reached.
The calling of the roll of the
California delegates brought storms
of applause when Mrs. Florence Z.
Porter of Los Angeles. one OF the
two women delegates in the con-
vention. called out:
"McGovern."
When the names of h. I'll. 1ryoh
and Norris Meyertield, jr. the two
contested California delegates, were
reached, Governor johnson jumped
to chair.
There are no such delegates here
as Tryon and Meyerfield,' he shout
ed "Those names We're put on the
rolls fraudulently. You Will elect
no temporary chairman with the ana
of such votes"
The protests of Governor Johnson
were unavailing. The roll call OF
California was counted "a for NC
Govern, 2 for Root.
Connecticut's delegation of IA
voted solidly for Root.
