Democratic Candidate Says Ae Will
Beat Roosevelt to it.
Kansas City. Feb. 22.-"My hat was
in the ring first and my head was In
it," said Governor Woodrow Wilson. OF
New Jersey, here today when his at
tention was called to Theodore Roose-
velt's statement made last night to w.
F. Eirick. Of Cleveland.
Governor Wilson laughed heartily at
his own epigran and was cheered ef-
fusively by group Of members Of the
Wilson for President Club, who formed
his reception committee here.
When shown an Associated Press
dispatch telling Of the proposed d.
vision Of the Oklahoma delegation be-
tween himself and Speaker Clark. Gov
ernor Wilson said:
II prefer to make no statement con-
cerning matter Of that kind in which
I myself am So delicately concerned
Walt until oklahoma has decided"
After Breakfast and reception by
committee Of his Kansas supporters
Governor Wilson made brief address
to the Association of Kansas Grain
Dealers In session here.
Trade" he said. rs one thing In this
country that is not standpat. It's cur
rents can not be controlled. They have
put straight jacket tariff on 1t but
it will burst forth sooner or later.
This world like trade moves on with
but little regard for the men who pre-
tend their standing still keeps the
world standing still too.
my idea Of a progressive Is the man
who keeps up with the world. A stand
pat, on the other hand. is one who
stands still with eyes shut and ears
stuffed with cotton and refuses to con-
cede that the world is moving on
Governor Wilson left for Topeka at

HOLT on INVESTIGATIONS.
Regarding the specifications for the
Second avenue Improvement, Inspector
Holt this morning addressed the ap-
pended communication to The Argus:
Rock Island, Oct Editor The
Argus: In relation TO the quality OF
the concrete being used on Second
avenue, I would like to suggest that
the specifications can be seen by any
body interested; that they are in plain
languages; that anybody who can
read English can understand; that
anybody who can count as high as
three can see that they are being fol,
lowed; that the mixing machine
stands al the foot of Nineteenth
street; that there is no fence around
it, and the city's representative there
will see that anybody that cares tc
may see the mixture made.
This would certainly look more
friendly than guessing and cussing

whom the government charges were
linked together in a conspiracy by an
extensive correspondence from 1905
TO 1911, during which time more than
100 explosions in states scattered
from Massachusetts to California &C.
CURED in works under construction
by employers of non-union labor
Fifty-four men were indicted last
February, but John ]. McCray, Wheel
ing, W. Va, never has been located
and the Mcnamara brothers are in
prison in California.
The courtroom which probably for
eeks will be the scene of the trial,
has long been ready. Every precau-
ton has been taken to secure quiet
The windows of the small room, locat-
ed on an outside corner of the second
floor of the federal building, have
been heavily curtained to exclude the
daylight. Recently Judge Anderson
had the walls and ceiling thickly
padded with felt to improve the sound
conditions.
United States Senator John w.
Kern has been retained as counsel
fol the defendants, while the govern
nent will be represented by District
Attorney Charles w Miller and his
assistant.
Sixteen defendants were placed I'M
der $4,000 bonds each, to appear for
trial and the others each under $1,000
bonds, making an aggregate in bonds
of $500
WITNESSES FROM MANY CITIES.
Witnesses are to be called from many
parts of the country. While it is not
! the intention of the government to
/ go thoroughly into the cases which re-
suited in the Imprisonment of the Nc
Namaras, all that part of the evidence
of the Pacific coast explosions as per-
tains to the illegal interstate ship
ment of explosives has been made
available to District Attorney Miller.
Each of the 80 indictments return
ell last February contains charges
against all of the defendants, and tho
charges are embraced in three groups
They are:
Transporting dynamite and nitro
glycerin in passenger trains from one
state to another; as Ortie f. McMani-
gal confessed was done when these
explosives were carried in suit cases
from hiding places at Muncie, Ind
Rochester. Pa, Tiffin, Ohio, and In,
dianapolis, to cities where Jobs" were
to be blown up.
Conspiring TO violate interstate reg
ulations relative to explosives
Concealing knowledge of the con,
spiracy or abetting the illegal trans
portation of explosives.
Most OF the explosions of which the
, government has made a record were
directed against member OF the Ma
: tional Erectors' association, an organ
i7ation of constructors who had brok
en- of relations with the union anC
were conducting open shops" The
first explosion or attempt recorded
: was at Miller's Falls, Mass, in the
, summer Of 1905 and the last Oct. 16
: 1911, when at 2 a. m. near Santa Bar
: bara, Cal, SO sticks of dynamite witt
fuse were found beneath a bridg.

BASED ON M'MANIGAL CONFESSION.
McManigaIs confession was the
fasis upon which the government
founded its case before the federal
grand jury which returned the indict.
ments, And it is expected to figure
prominently in the present trial In
it McManigal confessed:
That Hockin came to him in De.
troit in 1907 and induced him to blow
up a Job" there, afterward paying
him regular fee of 1925 for each
job McManigal had worked in
stone quarry and, he said, it was be-
cause of his familiarity with explos>
ives that he was selected
That Hockin accompanied him on
trips and pointed out works that were
tr be blown up. afterwards introduc-
ing him to James B. Mcnamara, who
became McManigal's "teammate" in
the dynamiting business
That on instructions from Hockin
he met Michael ]. Young, a member
o: the executive board in Boston, and
Frank c. Webb in New York, about
jobs that were to be blown up near
those cities
That Hockin wired him at Chicago
10 return to Indianapolis in February,
1910, where he, Hockin and J. J. Nc
Namara talked over a new inven-
ton" which consisted of using an or
binary alarm clock as a timer for
fuses. 1T was a scheme by which
We could set a bomb and then be
miles away when the explosion occur
led and so prove an alibi," said Nc
Manigal
CARRIED IN SUIT CASES.
McManigal also confessed that er-
plosives we're hidden in various parts
of the country and carried in suit
cases on passenger trains; that he
met various business agents about
Jobs" and that he received ! fee of
from s125 to $3.50 for each Job
