SAYS T. r. AND TAFT ARE
CONSPIRACY

Denver, Col, March o.
Theodore Roosevelt is backed
by the same interests as are sup
porting President William How
ard Taft.
"The Steel Trust is back of
Roosevelt's campaign as it is
back of Taft's. =
"Roosevelt's boom was started
by Steel Trust man. The pur-
pose of it was to split the pro
gressives backing La Toilette.
"The game that is being play
ed on the people of this country
by Roosevelt and Taft with the
aid of the Steel Trust, or rather,
by the Steel Trust with the aid of
Roosevelt and Taft, is the biggest
piece of political trickery ever at
tempted in this country"
Walter L. Houser, manager of
the campaign of Robert M. La
Toilette, of Wisconsin, thus ex-
pressed his idea of the present ex-
traordinary situation in the Re
publican party today. Houser
explained what he meant as fol-
lows:
Look at what has happened!
For the first time in the his
tory of the country it seemed as
if the wishes of the people were to
enter into the nomination of a
presidential standard bearer for
the Republican party.
The people were progressive,
They looked to La Toilette
Roosevelt announced that he, too,
was progressive, and would sup

the people daily were rallying to
him.
Then there were a few mid
night visits of George M. Perkins,
Pierpont Morgan's man, to
Roosevelt, and Roosevelt sudden
ly changed.
'He came out and declared
that he was candidate. He APP
pealed for the progressive vote,
and who started his boom? Dan
Hanna, owner of the Cleveland
Leader, agent of the Steel Trust.
Theodore Roosevelt is not
progressive. He, could not be a
progressive with the support of
such men as Perkins and Hanna.
"But the progressives have
been split. Some of them believe
in Roosevelt, and have turned to
him.
"The people have been cheated
again"

Ten Reasons Why
iss Should Send for Brooks Rup-
tuFe Assistance

/ It Is absolutely the only Appliance
OF the kind on the market to-day, and in
II are embodied the principles that In
ventors have sought after for years.
2. The Appliance for retaining the
rupture cannot be thrown out Of posi-
ton.
3 Being an air cushion Of soft rub
Der II clings closely to the body, yet
never blisters or causes irritation.
T. Unlike the ordinary so-caIled pads,
used in other trusses, II Is not cumber-
some or ungainly.
5. II is small. soft. and pliabie. and
positively cannot be detected through
the clothing.
s. The soft. pliable bands holding the
Appliance do not give one the unplea SAINT
sensation Of wearing a harness
7. There Is nothing about IL to get
foul. and when II bcomes soiled II can
be washed without injuring IT in the
least
g. There are no metal springs In the
Appliance to torture one by cutting and
bruisng the flesh.
9. All OF the material of which the
Appliances are made Is Of the very best
that money can buy. making Il a dur
able and safe Appliance to wear
10. My reputation for honesty and fair
dealing Is thoroughly established by
an experience OF over thirty wears OF
dealing with the public. and my prices
are so reasonab BILE, my terms so fair that
there certainly should be no hesitancy in
sending free coupon to-day.

MAYOR OF BOSTON
BOYCOTTS MEAT
He Invites Every One to Abstain
Till Beef Trust" Helps Reduce
High Cost of Living.

Boston. Mass, Aug. 4.-As a protest
against the high cost of living, Mayor
John F. Fitzgerald has asked persons all
over the country TO join him in a meat
boycott until the Beef Trust restores
normal prices.
Il hope that the people of Boston, in
fact, people generally throughout the
country. will eat as little meat as pos
sible for the next few months to see
what effect It will have upon. the price
of beef. which has already reached a pro-
hibitive figure in most homes" said the
Mayor.
while it is undoubtedly true that
there are fewer cattle in the country
per capita of population than there were
q few years ago, there is no question in
my mind. that altogether too large
proportion of the price paid by con-
sumers goes into the pockets of the Beef
Trust. People should use more yeee-
tables. A good meal can be made from
canned goods and preserves
The American people Of to-day eat al
together too much meat. II the Amer
lean housewife were as thrifty as the
average housewife in France the cost
Of living in America would be substar-
TALLY reduced.
I'VE can defeat those who are respon-
sible for the high cost Of living by boy
cotting every kind Of food ON which the
price is raised"

I. A. DEFENDS THE
BULL MOOSE PARTY
Declares Selection Of Taft Was "A
Stolen Nomination for the
Presidency"
MAKES REPLY TO HILLES
HILLES

New York, Aug. 4-Replying to Charles
d. Hilles' defense of President Taft and
the actions of the Republican National
Committee at Chicago. the provisional
national committee Of the National Pro-
gressive party to-day issued a statement.
entitled "a stolen nomination for the
Presidency-the facts of the Chicago con-
vention of 1872" It was written by
Theodore Roosevelt and reads, in part:
The total number Of delegates max
ing up the Chicago convention wasr1. 07S.
To nominate Mr.. Taft required $40 dele
gates. Mr.. Taft did not have this num-
Der Of votes in the convention; of the
honorably elected delegates. Mr.. Roose-
welt had a decisive majority. How was
Mr.. Taft to be nominated? Not by a
minority, that was clear. He had been
unable to win a majority. That major
ity had to be found.
THE National Committee, bound to Mr..
Taft by Federal patronage and machine
politics proceeded to find It. In the thir-
teenth Congress. District of Indiana. az
fidavits were filed that the Taft dele
gates had not been voted for and that
they presented false certificates of cleo
ton. The committee received these af-
fidavits and seated the Taft delegates.
The Texas delegates were the regular and
Roosevelt. Without a qualm the Ma
tional Committee ignored these delegates
and seated the Taft delegates, elected by
boiling minority from the State con-
vention. in direct violation of the Ter
rell election law of the State OF Texas"
In another paragraph. the statement
says: Where downright misstatement 10
not possible. resort Is had to disingenu-
Gus suggestion and deceptive forms of
statement"
According to the statement, the cases
of California, Arizona, Washington. and
Texas cover thirty votes. The change
of these thirty votes. which, 1t is claim
ed. rightfully belonged to Roosevelt.
would have defeated Taft, and reversed
all the important actions of the con-
vention.
AS was said by Mr.. Roosevelt recently:
Both a great moral issue and a fun
damental principle of self-government
are involved in the action Of the So
called Republican convention at Chicago;
and We cannot submit to that action
without being false both to the basic
principles OF American democracy and
to that spirit of righteousness and hon.
esty, which must underlie every form
of successful government"

HUGHES IN DANGER -
OF LOSING SEAT
Fight in Mount Rainier Is Not Yet
Over, Say the Different
Factions.

G. W. Hughes. the newly elected coun-
Gilman of Mount Rainier. was informed
yesterday by his attorney. Charles CAL
vert, that his seat in the town council
is assured. 1t was stated that Mr..
Hughes election would be protested at
council meeting tonight on the
ground that there had been no new reg
istration of voters since the last cleo
ton. But if the council votes his cleo
ton illegal it will be IN the same posi-
ton It occupied a week ago when Judge
Fillmore Beall ordered the city fathers
to show cause why they should not be
cited for contempt of court. 1t Is stat
ed. moreover, that the town charter
contains nothing specifically calling for
a reregistration of voters.
Meanwhile. the displaced councilman,
T. C. Elliott. has some Interesting ques-
tons to ask with regard to his recall.
According to a statement made by Mr..
Elliott last night, the petition demand
ing his recall. which was submitted to
the court. was not the original copy.
Petition Was Rejected.
The original petition signed by the
requisite Is per cent Of the voters, was
rejected by the council. says Mr.. Ell
lott. Members Of the Joyce faction then
obtained a copy of the paper and SUBJ
mitted 1t to the court. Meanwhile, ac-
cording to Elliott, all but seven of the
names had been withdrawn from the
original petition, SO that 1t no longer
was a valid recall. This revised petit
ton was put in the hands of Henry I.
Quinn, attorney for the town, with the
understanding that he was to make an
appeal. For these reasons, says Mr..
Elliott, II was a shock and a surprise
to the councilmen when Sheriff A. b.
Suit served the contempt papers on
them Friday night.
Mr.. Elliott retains a feeling of sore-
ness and a large curiosity as to what
became Of that revised petition. He also
states that he withdrew his name be-
cause he did not wish to run for the
contested seat which Mr. Hughes is now
trying to occupy.
Not satisfied with one experiment with
the recall, the politicians of Mount
Rainier are preparing another. II is
stated that nearly the requisite number
of names have been obtained on a Pc
tition demanding the recall of Mayor
Joseph Theophilus Kirk Plant.
The council meeting tonight promises
to bring forth some lively debating. The
question of the protested election will
be thrashed, and It is also rumored that
the Joyce faction will demand to know
what became Of certain funds. the pro-
ceeds Of a carnival held last September.
The affair was largely managed by the
Mayor and councilmen, and there are
several hundred dollars not yet ACCOUNT
ed Tor, according to the Joyce faction.
