Crushed Under Building

Three men at Gillian had a very
fortunats escape from death on
Thursday of last week, but as 1t
was were hurt painfully. Louis
Bohlkeu had charge Of raising II.
c. Deis shop Just south OF the Gill
lam Excnange Bank, which Mr..
Deis used as a warehouse and had
It full Of wire, nails, etc. While
Mr.. Bohiken and his assistants had
the building on jack screws and
while Grover Lackin, Will Hus-
tedde and Ray Roberts were un-
der II, the building gave a slight
Iprch and sank, pinioning the
three men to the earth, which for
tunately was soft so that instead
of crushing them to death they
were forced into the soft dirt to a
certain extent. Willing hands res
cued them after about an hour Of
work.
Mr.. Lackin was in bed the last
we heard OF him, but is not sup
posed TO be seriously hurt; Mr..
Hustedde is out again, while Rob-
erts got off easy. The first report
received here. was that three men

Asterrible accident befeli Noble
.Lisetor, the manly young son OF
Mr.. And Mrs. Frank Lisetor on
Tuesday morning.
Soon after eight o'clock Noble
stepped out Of the c. & A. depot,
where he was studying telegraphy,
20 hand the engineer Of through
freight No. ss running orders
He missed the engineer and In or
der not to compel the train to stop
tried to hand the orders to q
brakeman on top of a car farther
back In the train. In attempting
TO catch the iron bars to get on
the car he missed his hold or slip
ned and was thrown under the
car and dragged about fifty yards
He was picked up and carried to
the baggage room and physicians
s0nt for.
~ was found that one leg was
cut off completely near the body,
that his head was badly injured
and that he had internal injuries
His clothing was nearly all torn
from his body by being rolled
along under the train. He seem
ed conscious but said little, and
his sufferings were relieved rs
much as possible by the physicians
but Il was quickly realized that
nothing could be done.
About $50 the c. & A. physician
DIR. r. A. Howard, arrived. from
Slater and he was taken to his
home, on South Miami Avenue
where he was relieved from suf-
fering and went to the better
world at about eleven o'clock.
Noble seemed to realize his SER
ious condition by a few feeble re-
marks but was probably too weak
TO take any special interest In
the outcome.
+ He had been with the c. x A.
several months and was most
industrious and trustworthy young
man.
He was born April rs, 1898, being
exnctiy 10 years and two months
old. He graduated from our high
school year ago and was the
pride OF his fond parents, to whom
his death isa terrible shock and
irreparable loss. He was a faith
ful worker In the Christian church
and also member OF the choir.
He was ready for the untimely
summons, a great consolation to
his relatives and many friends.
Funeral services were held at
the Christian church Wednesday at
3 p. m. by his pastor Rev. b. T.
Wharton who was wired to come
home from Kansas. There was q
large attendance and many beauti-
ful floral tributes gave evidence
OF the esteem In which the young
man was held. His remains were
then taken to Ridge Park for the
final resting place.

ridge, Q; Gillette, 1; absent, II;
present but not voting, 352.
The roll call on the ballot for
president was started at $3.50
o'clock. The announcement OF
Alabama's vote indicated that the
plea of Roosevelt to his followers
to refrain from voting would be
generally needed. Alabama's vote
was announced: Taft, %; not vot-
ing, 2.
There was no break in the line
up until Idaho was reached. Sena-
tor Borah's delegation gave Taft 1
and Cummins 7. The delegation was
uninstructed, but had lined up
solidly with the Roosevelt forces.
Washington, June 22.-President
Taft tonight made the following
statement:
"A national convention OF one OF
the great parties Is ordinarily i'm
portant only az preliminary to a
national campaign for the election
OF a president. The Chicago con-
vention Just ended II much more
than this and Is In itself the end
OF a pre-convention campaign rre-
senting a crisis more threatening
and issues more important than
those OF the election campaign
which 10 to be followed between

"The question here at stake was

"The campaign carried on to
seize the Republican party and
make It the instrument OF reck-
less ambition and the unsettling OF
the fundamental principles OF our
government was SO sudden and un
expected that time was not given
clearly to show to- the people and
the party the dangers which con-
fronted them. II was sought to
break the wise and valuable ira
dition against giving more than
two terms to any one man In the
presidency and the danger from

4 new PARTY
IS LAUNCHED
The Most Remarkable Poll.
tical Gathering Since
1856. Roosevelt the
Nominee.

Chicago, June 22.-The new Pro-
2ressive party came into existence
tonight. It had it's birth in Orch
estra Hall, while thousands cheer
ed with an enthusiasm that was
not far from religious.
Theodore Roosevelt Is its Presi.
dental nominee. He accepted the
nomination on the condition that
II be reaffirmed at a mass conven-
ton from all the people, including
Democrats as well as Republicans,
Southerners as well as Norther-
ners.
His appeal for the blotting out
OF party lines In the cause OF "our
common American Citizenship
brought a tremendous outburst
from the crowd.
~ ask you," he said, ito 20 to
your several homes to find out the
sentiment Of the people at home
and then again to come together.
I suggest by mass convention, to
nominate for the Presidency o
progressive candidate on pro.
gressive platform that will enable
us to plead to Northerners and
Southerners, Fasteners and West
erners, Republicans and Democrats
alike.r
When he reached the suggestion
to ascertain the sentiment at home,
the delegates yelled, 1--WE know it,
~ know you do" he shouted back
when he could make himself heard
"But go home and make dead sure y
II was a wonderful convention. n
convention that suggested in It's
solemnity, as well as It's enthusi-
asm, what must have been the
spirit OF the men, who met under
the Jackson oaks fifty-six years
ago to found the Republican party
In defense Of the rights OF man.
II was made up OF the Roosevelt
delegates and as many OF the peo-
pie here as could get into the hall
which seats about three thousand.
The men who made up the audience
were In dead earnest. They were
there for purpose.
When n boy got up to the grea,
pipe organ In the hall and played
America and "Star Spangled
Banner" and then "Siine Eyes
Have Seen the Glory Of the Coming
OF the Lord" the audience Joined In
the singing with the fervor OF re.
ligious meeting.
Men from Tennessee and from
Massachusetts,, and from California
and from Maine stood with tears in
their eyes as they sang.
For them II was the beginning OF
great crusade for human rights
against the privileged interests and
they were enlisted for the battle.
And when their fighting leader
came in and jumped on the plat
form, waving his hand to them, the
crowd went mad. A gentleman
from Pennsylvania was speaking,
seconding the resolution offered
by Senator Clapp Of Minnesota for
Roosevelt's nomination. He simply
faded into the crowd.
For Roosevelt was there with
his square shoulders and swapping
Jaws He stood, shifting from one
foot to the other as the people
yelled.
Within twenty-four hours call
isto be made for an Illinois con-
vention Of Roosevelt supporters
at which state organization will
be formed.
Medill Mccormick OF Chicago
The Marshall republican., 1912-06-28

said calls in other states would be
issued In rapid succession and that
within few weeks the Progress
i've party would be organized 10
every section of the country.
The method Of operation in the
various states is still to be decid-
ed upon. In some cases the Re-
publican candidates for state and
national offices, with the except
ion Of President and vice-Presi-
dent, will be indorsed, with the.
idea Of preserving the state Repub-
lican organizations which are in
sympathy with the Roosevelt move
ment.
J0HNsoN's SPEECH.
ITO any man with red blood In
his veins" Governor johnson said
In opening the Progressive meet
ing "it Is always a pleasure to
fight fraud, and especially to fight
a fraudulent convention
"The delegates present represent
a majority of the legally elected
delegates to the national Repubii-
can convention. They propose TO
do right here and now just what
they were elected to do.S
The governors speech was inter-
rupted with wild burst OF cheer
ing.
"We came here with the mandate
OF the people OF California. You
came here with the like design-to
carry out not the will OF n rotten
boss In Pennsylvania, or a crook
ed one in New York, or a United
States senator In Massachusetts,.
but to carry out the mandate OF
the people to nominate Theodore
Roosevelt.
by a fraud he has been rob-
bed OF that which was his. We,
the delegates, free and untrammel-
ed, have come here to nominate
him tonight"
Those words brought the great
audience to its feet with a shout,
and there was an uproar OF ap-
plause.
"The time has gone by when. In
this country, any stituted
representative OF the people can
deny to the people that which 10
theirs" Governor johnson contin-
ued.
"The time has gone by when men
can foist by chicanery and unfair
means n candidate upon the peo-
pie whom they don't want.
$50 we have come here tonight to
right a wrong and Just as certain
as we are here tonight the people
will rule. Every man who en-
barks on this course under
stands full well the responsibility
which is his, recognizes the OBJ
stacles to be overcome, but We
have learned out In the West that
whenever there Is n great wrong
to be righted, Il Is the people
who take up the fight and win Il.
Beyond the mere personality OF
the candidate there is much to in
terest every person In this move
ment. There is the principle that
has come out OF the West, stalking
toward benighted New York and
endeavoring even In darkest Phil
adelphia to make understood the
principle upon which this republi.
was founded.
This principle was trampled
under foot at the Republican ma
tiional convention. Then IL was
that the people OF all this country
rebelled.
