 The ballot became a neck and neck race as South Dakota was reached. After the South Dakota ballot the vote stood McGovern, 453; Root, Al. But Tennessee turned the tide, and after the Texas vote the total was, Root. 495; McGovern, 462. After the vote of the state of Washington was tallied the atotal was Root, 544; McGovern, 467. and from that time on Roots vote was increased amid the cheers of President Taft's friends and Roots friends in the convention.
 Chairman Rosewater announced the election of Senator Root Immediately Senator Root came to the front of the platform. The vast audience was pretty well Jagged and began to leave the hall, This gave Senator Root an opportunity to deliver his speech with no interrup- tions except the applause of the dele gates who had stood sturdily by his side during that eventful ballot.
 Police Quiet Film and Quay.
 Are you willing to take an election that was stoIen?'' cried Finn, Quay and Ziba T. Moore, getting up on their chairs as usual.

 Chicago, June 19.-The Republican national convention, after having clos ed its first days session with the cleo. ton of Senator Elihu Root of New York as temporary chairman, recon vened at Il o'clock today and took ul as the first order of business the cleo z tion of other temporary officers of the convention. The Taft men, flushed with victory over the election of Sena' tor Root, were more confident than ever in their prediction that the presi. dent will be renominated.
 It was after six hours of tumultuous scenes that Senator Root was named temporary chairman. This was the first victory of the Taft forces. The vote was as follows:
 Elihu Root of New York. 558; Frank hs InNGOFCAA VI W G5SOhS1lp OO&P w. 0' Lauder of North Dakota, 9; Walter L. Houser of Wisconsin, 8; Asle J. Gron. na of North Dakota, 1. Absent or not voting, 5. Total, 1,078. Necessary for choice, $40.
 It will be. observed from the forego- ing figures that Senator Root swung out the lineup victory by a margin of fifty-six votes, or eighteen more than $40 votes needed to nominate presi- dent.
 Finn and Quay Bitter.
 The ballot started with Senator Root in the lead. When Pennsylvania was reached there was a terrific tumult over the calling of a name of an alter nate.

BUT WHAT'S THE USE.

THERE are two things the news
papers Of the whole country
have advocated, pleaded for,
wrote about, insisted on, done every
thing that human ingenuity could
conceive, to accomplish, and yet they
have never succeeded. One Of these
is to get the election boards OF the
counties, in sending in the ballot
boxes and returns to the county clerk,
after election, to mark a ballot with
the total results, so that the papers
and the public could learn the results
before the board meets and canvasses
the returns. A large majority Of the
boards do this, but there is always a
number that do not, and the result is
that information in which the public
is more deeply interested than in any
other-the election returns-is una
valuable.
In many cases this does not matter
much, for the results can, with rea-
sonable certainty be f]orecasted from
the returns available, In close cleo
tons, however, this cannot be done,
and the public must wait with such
patience as It can muster until the
~canvassing board acts, This is the
case this year, for instance, on the
U. S. se%natorship, on equal suffrage
and several other matters here in Ore
gon. The vote is so close that, while
the unknown precincts r not liable
to change the results, II is easily pos
sible for them to do so, Had tickets
been sent showing results in each
precinct, the tabulated vote could have
been given by Thursday, at the latest
but, as 1t is, the actual results in the
state will not be known until mex
week.
The other matter is purely a news.

There are so many cases Of Consump-

the disease started with a cold or q

follow. If the medicines you are now
taking do not bring relief, try Eckman's

As a result Of the election just held
woman's suffrage was defeated IN
this county as we'll as the Blue Sky
law and the adjustment Of capital
punishment. The vote against extend
ing the elective franchise to the gem
tier sex was close, but in the case Of
capital punishment the majority
against It is about 1000. The major
ity against the Blue sky law is about
1900. The electors refused to abol-

Just A MODEST CLAIM.

A FULL telegraphic report, received
~ by any newspaper in a city is OF
immense Importance to that city
The public generally does not realize
this fact, for the American people have
a habit of accepting things as they
are without bothering 70 inquire into
the cause This full telegraphic sery-
ice. such as The Capital Journal re-
ceives, is taken as a matter-of-course
by the readers, and while this news
service is at times not Of the utmost
Importance, there are occasions when
TO be without 1t would be almost a
political and civic crime. In times Of
calamity and disaster, when the pub
lie feeling is wrought up, the local pa
per with full telegraph service, is at
hind with the complete story, the full
details. that otherwise would not be
available for hours. It is there with
the news long before the paper goes
to press, putting on its bulletin boards
the information the public is looking
for.
As an Illustration, Tuesday night

turns, the same full dispatches that
we're flashed to the big dailies Of the
great cities. Salem had the news
Just as complete and just as early as

that II otherwise would have waited

have had to pay for by purchasing the

The Indian

Developing;
He Must Get
Fair Play

"VERY thoughtful student of human DEVELOPMENT believes
v that the INDIAN POSSESSES EVERY ABILITY
~ AND CAPACITY FOR DEVELOPMENT and that he
is capable of any attainment possible for men provided his
environment is made normal. This postulates that the Indian is equal
in inherent capacity and therefore NOT AN INFERIOR. Many
mistakes and much misery have been produced by dogmaticaIy as
serting the contrary.
Hampered by false environment and artificial social conditions
though necessary to restrain him, the Indian has found it Diff
CHIT TO DEVELOP ALONG FORMAL LINES. The edn'
cation. civilization and incentive came from without and not FROM
within.
The INDIAN is A CAPABLE, USEFUL AMERICAN
when be is permitted to be. There can be little doubt that the ma
iOrity of Americans desire justice and progress for the Indian
Americans, as a rule, believe in FAIR PLAY, As the law
stands this is now difficult to give. An uncertain and undetermined
status makes it possible for dishonest interests to prey upon the In
dian so affected. There has often been the lack of fair play and often
no redress. The LAW BLOCKS THE WAY.
