Meagher county was represented at
the state convention at Livingston ,v
ten Of the delegates selected at the
HarlOwton republican convention.
Before they Cleft their homes thew
knew their cause was hopeless, and
that there was no chance of being
recognized by the powerful Amalga-
mated machine, but they went AZ a
living protest against gag rule and
i'll favor Of decency in politics. They
acted more in the capacity of pail
bearers at the death of the political
hopes Of a whole lot Of ambitious
politicians who believe that the
Amalgamated Copper company will
continue to dictate the politics Of the
state in the future rs they have done
in the past. They paid their own ex-
penses throughout and were under no
obligations TO anyone, and today
have clearer conscience than the
fellows who went there "hog tied and
copper WIRED" and voted
against their honest convictions by
the man who was paying their ex.
penses.

THE REAL ISSUE.

1t is amusing to hear discussion
Of the political situation between peo-
pie who believe the vital question IS
one of candidates. You will hear
people say that Taft would make
better president than Roosevelt, and
that Roosevelt should not have third
term.
The issue is a clear cut one. 1t is
not question of the political ambi-
tons Of either Taft or Roosevelt.
IT IS A QUESTION OF SPECIAL PRlVi'
LEGES AGAINST HUMAN RIGHTS.
The same question that brought on
the war of the revolution. The peo-
pie against the kingly power and
special privileges of Great Britain.
The same question that brought on
the civil war. The people under the
magnificent leadership Of the i'm
mortal Lincoln against the special
privileges of the Shareholder.
We are facing just rs grave ques-
ton today as our forefathers did in
revolutionary days when the declara-
ton Of independence was written.
Just as grave question as our IA
Tiers did when the blOodiest war of
all history was fought and won for
human rights against special privi-
leges.
Who is there in the country today
better fitted to become the leader in
the great struggle that is to be fought
out in the near future for human
rights than Theodore Roosevelt?
DO not allow partizanship rancor.
nor the confusion of the real issue
swerve you from your plain path Of
duty. Make up your mind to he
right, and stick to it.
There are two great questions at
stake. The people who are in favor
OF human rights above all other rights
are fighting under the leadership Of
Roosevelt. Those who favor special
privileges above all other rights,
have focked to the leadership of
Taft.
THERE IS no MIDDLE GROUND. YOU
WILL HAVE TO TAKE EITHER ONE SIDE
OF THE ROAD OR THE OTHER.

Russell TELLS
OF CONVENTION

Edward c. Russell III Lewistown
Daily News.
The Fergus county delegation in the
convention voted always solidly with
the Roosevelt wing and were active
and influential in the work of the
minority. Judge Cheadle was select
ed as chairman of the minority COM
mittee on credentials: W. II. Smith
was chairman of the minority Of the
committee on permanent OrganiZa-
ton and order of business; and Ed
ward {. Russell was chairman of the
minority Of the committee on plat.
form and resolutions.
The fact that stood out most plain
~ III the meeting ut Livingston was
the evident lack of enthusiasm on the
part Of the Taft supporters in spite of
their numbers, and the very evident
enthusiasm and spirit of fight in the
Roosevelt supporters. in spite of the
fact OF their being in the minority.
In the street parade held just before
the convention was called to order,
the stand-patters mustered practical

ringing with shouts and cheers, both

In the convention. the Roosevelt

placed the majority upon record on
every important move. While there
were many sincere Taft supporters ut
the convention, without any question,

yet the vote OF the majority. AS re-
corded. was no test Of the relative
strength Of Taft and Roosevelt. Two
members Of the Silver Bow delepa.
ton Informed members Of the Fer
gus county delegation that ut least
sixty per cent of their members were
at heart for Roosevelt. yet the solid
sixty-five votes Of Silver Bow were
recorded every time against him and
Ills supporters.
Much has been made in the demo-
cratic and stand-pat press III regard
to apostolic bolt and the lack of
courage on the part OF the progress
sives. in not so doing. There was no
lack OF courage or enthusiasm, and
it required calm counsel to restrain
the fighting blood of the majority Of
the faction, from taking this course
as the only effective protest against
the methods of the maj rity.
The committee of five, Of which Mr..
Russell was the chairman, appointed
by the progressive caucus to deter
mine the grounds for u possible with.
drawal, made the following report:
1--WE, your committee, appointed to
ascertain approximately the relative
strength OF the stand-pat aud pro-
gressive elements in the state conven-
ton, as affected by present contests
and apparent illegallties, would re-
spectfnlly report: That from the
facts we have been able to learn the
nnseating of all handpicked deleQa-
tions and the seating of the progress
sive contrasting delegations from
Blaine, Meagher and Lincoln coun-
ties. would not change the present
control Of the stand-pat faction, and
thus would not afford sufficient
ground to justify a withdrawal from
the convention. This report does
not attempt to make any recommen-
dation in anticipation Of what tho
other faction may do during the pro
gress OF the convention"
The earnestness, sincerity. enthus-
iasm and fighting qualities of the
Roosevelt contingent impressed the
majority and clearly demonstrated to
them, as was said upon the platform
by Hon. w. F. Meyer, that the people
intended to take this question of pol
tiles into their own hands and to re-
ceive no dictation from outside inter.
ests and that the sooner the politici-
ans learn this the better tor the par
".
While the Roosevelt delegation
was outnumbered and outvoted, it
was the general opinion among them
all as well as among the thoughtful
men Of the majority, that the victory
Of the majority was really a defeat,
and that notice had been served upon
those politicians, who engineered this
result. had dug their own political
graves. 1t was we'll worth while to
have made this first skirmish against
the special interests in politics in this
state. and augurs well for the result
OF the final battle which is in the
near future.

PROGRESSIVE PLATFORM.

The platform adopted by the Re-
publican state convention at Harris
burg, Penn, declares:
That the Republican party was
founded by Lincoln and his associates
to destroy special privilege of his day,
through the rule Of the people.
That in the period following the
war, when the people were busy with
material affairs and when PARTISAN
ship rather than principles divided
the people in politics, special privi-
lege again gained control of the gov
eminent and also Of industry and of
the money and commercial credit of
the nation.
That this control was obtained
through the political bosses, who
sold the power to corporate wealth.
That as Lincoln had been raised up
to destroy the special privilege of his
day, so Theodore Roosevelt has been
given to the nation to lead the fight
against special privilege of our time.
That to accomplish social and eco
nomic justice through the real rule
Of the people the Republican party Of
Pennsylvania pledges itselfIto the pol
icies of Theodore Roosevelt.
That when statutes for social and
economic justice are dec Jared uncOn-
stitutional by the state courts, which
the courts have a right to do, the peo-
pie should also have the right to say
whether or not they wan: those statu-
ties tn BE law.
The convention pledges the party to
the direct election Of United States
senator's: to direct nomination of all
elective officers: to presidential pref
erence primaries, the expressed will
of the people to be binding on the
delegates: tOa more strict corrupt
practices act, and to severer penalties
for violations of all election laws; to
wOrkmen's compensation act; to
the protection of women and children
in Industry: to waterway improve
ments. including the port Of Philadel-
phia: to real pure food legislation: to
conservation; to municipal reform.
and to legislation for public health.
The convention expresses the belief
that the national platform of 1908
pledged the party to tariff revision
downward, and regrets that the prom
Use was not kept. 1t urges legislation
and credit.
\ program of progressive govern
ment action is demanded as the only

BRESNAHAN MATTER
GOES INTO COURT
Matter Threshed Out in League Meet
ing Today and Directors Find
They Can Do Nothing.

limited Press Leased Wire Service
NEW YORK, Dec. 10.-Conyinced
that Roger Bresnahan, erstwhile leacs
er OF the st. Louis cluD, had an IRON
clad contract and that he could, under
its provisions, claim $4,000 from tho
owners who recently turned him
away, the board of directors of the
National League had practically de-
cided to turn the matter over to the
Missouri courts when it met this aft
ernoon for its second session.
Members of the board wondered
why they had gone to such lengs MS
in their efforts to discover the facts
when it was apparent that they coufo
take no action leading to adjustment.
Beyond the maintenance of Bresna-
hans standing as a player, the direc-
tors realized they could do nothing
toward ultimate settlement.
When the directors conclude their
work the formal meeting of the lea.
que owners will be held. The only
important business scheduled is the
election of a president. President
Lynch forecasted, the result of this

unless somebody wanted one II
was expected thai Lynch will be the
