vention. l suggest the matter be laid on the table,"
 Relative Taft and Roosevelt strength on the committee was shown to some extent by the vote of 20 to II on a minor rule.
 Marshall Stimson of California, precipi- tated a heated debate when he sought to amend the rule giving the national com mittee the right to dictate the manner in which the delegates to the national convention should be elected. Eventually it was lost, 16 to Ii, but will be brought before the convention by minority re- port.
 The Stimson amendment would force the recognition by the national committee of delegate elected by state preferential pri- maries. It was inspired by the action of the national committee in seating two Taft delegates from that state in the present convention. William M Smith of Michigan was the principal supporter of MT. Stimson, but the opposition. led by MT. MeGregor of TeYas and Mir. Vale of Delaware prevailed.
 Shortly after o'clock the committee ad- journed until 10 o'clock, having com pleted almost two-thirds of the rules.
 There was virtually no change from the rules that governed the last convention.

 In every quarter the Taft people made no secret of their elation. After 1 o'clock the racket was unabated.
 Some leaders of progressive states de clared this morning they would not lend countenance to a bolt"
 North Dakota will remain regular and will not bolt" said Senator Gronna. q have seen several of the Wisconsin dele gates and they assure me they will re main in the regular convention.''
 Senator Kenyon gave the same assur- ance as to the 10 cummins votes in Iowa
 A man who has been close to the Roosevelt leaders asserted the belief that Colonel Roosevelt could not control more than 200 votes on bolt.

of what I shall do. So far as I am concerned I shall never recognize in a republican convention a majority of which a large part is composed of fraud ulently seated delegates from the states of which Governor Hadley spoke republican party. A convention of the republican party is a convention the majority of which Is elected by the people and not appointed by a mori- bund national committee
 "I am for a convention in which sit the men elected by the states of Wash ington and Arizona, and not the men appointed from Washington and Ari- zona by the defunct bosses of other states. I hold this Is no case of a fac t;onal fight. The time has come now when We must assert absolutely the right of the people to run the national convention to have their own repre- 'sentatives put in the convention. ] see that 1t was held today, that of these contested delegates all were to vote or one another's cases on the ground of precedent. The argument in favor of that precedent is of the type of the argument made by a clever corpora ton lawyer when advising a corpora ton how to keep within law and yet do what the law intended to for bid. This kind of bad faith vitiates any proposition. Fraud destroys any con- tract"

From the Louisville Herald.
 Why pay s6 or s7 for gold slippers fol costumes and parties when one can buy a cheap pair of white kid slippers and with a bottle of gold paint convert then into as attractive a pair of gold slippers as can be bought?

nullifying his whole contesting delegation, totaling S5 votes. The two opposing foress are blue. There seems to be no way out of the abyss into which the republicans have plunged themselves. IL Is thought now that unless Roosevelt can name his man, name unknown, to go to Washington, he will wreck the party by bolting as has been the plan all the while.
 The reports here that a riot was about to be enacted by Boss Flinn of Pittsburg were greatly exaggerated. He was simply trying to be recognized on point of or der which was on the invitation of Root. George w. Perkins, who Is said to be paying s15,ooo per day expenses here, is stin on the job.
 The members of the Roosevelt delegation from Alabama are really blue over the situation They cannot figure out the answer.
 They only know that the Taft Alabama crowd is on the inside looking out, while the TT. R." crowd occupies commanding position on the outside
 The situation. however, has become so muddled by the weakness of the Taft crowd. which was believed to be much more powerful, that all opinions are sim ply guesses

 The issue has been joined" he said. 'l have just come from a two hours conference of Pennsylvania delegation and we voted unanimously to walk out of convention controlled by the Taft forces through the fraud.
 We have been patient. but the part : ing of the ways has come"

 The doors of the committee room were suddenly thrown open by ]. J. Sullivan of Ohio, who rushed out with the cry, All Roosevelt men walk out"
 He was followed by Hugh T Hal bert of Minnesota, Francis J. Heney of California, George L. Record of New Jersey and other Roosevelt men, As they pushed open the swinging doors after Sullivan, they called out to the newspaper men.
 All newspaper men come inside and see what they are trying to do to us."
 Colonel Thayer, assistant sergeant at arms, shouted to the doorkeeper to ad- nit no one. The Roosevelt forces shouted again for everyone to come in. MT. Thayer called for policemen, who pushed their way through, and kept the crowd from getting in.
 The Roosevelt men poured out of the room declaring they we're acting under the direction of Colonel Roose- Va1t

Go to Congress Hotel

Everybody go to the Florentine room at the Congress" shouted one man.
 They rushed outside. followed by the crowd and in the street they were over taken by Secretary William Hayward
 Why did you act that way?" he de- manded of Heney
 Why didn't you wait until some rules had been passed?"
 We are acting under the direction of Colonel Roosevelt" retorted Heney. We are obeying better general than you,' shouted George l.. Record of New Jersey. He told us to leave that room and we did It."

Garfield Kept Out

James R. Garfield of Ohio former sec- retary of the interior. came to the door, and attempted to enter the room. It was understood he had some message from Colonel Roosevelt. The policemen and doorkeeper kept him back, although one of the committeeman attempted to pull
 him in. with the aid of Orinsby McHarg. He Was ushered to some waiting room through side door,
 senator Dixon, Roosevelt's campaign manager, and Mir. Heney joined MT. Gar tleid, Tn the committee ante-room. A. A.
 U. Kahn of Minnesota and several other men in the confidence of the colonel also were passed through the wicket into this conference room.
 No definite list of the number of men who left the committee room on the first bolt could be obtained It was admitted that practically all of them had returned to go through a regular fight in the com mttee Heney was called out by a mes senger, to answer the telephone. but re- fused to state what advice Senator Dixon and MT. Garfield had given to the Roose welt forces. He did not return to inc ante-room but left the building hurriedlv in taxicab declining to reveal his desti- | nation.

Cause for Break

Hugh T. Halbert declared the break came as the result of the refusal of the majority in committee to open up all evidence in the case MT. Halbert presented resolutions, asking that the temporary roll of the convention be considered only as prima facie evil denee of the right of delegates to sit; 1; and that all evidence, testimony and the like be gone into.
 He declared the committee refused to do this and attempted to gag the ml- nority by making rules that would have left the action of the national commit tee as practically decisive in all the con tests.
 MT. Heney later came back to the lobby and urged the Roosevelt contestants to go to the Florentine room of the Con gress hotel where the Roosevelt head quarters are located and be heard by the
 members of the credentials committee rep
 resenting Roosevelt
 Believing they had acted too hastily
 some of the Roosevelt men, including Mir Halbert, returned to committee room after short conference in the street While
 MT Record and Mir Heney declared they
 were acting under MT. Roosevelt's direc- tion, others believed they should have re- | mained until definite action was taken by the committee upon the time for argu- ment, and the character of evidence to be considered. R. R. Mccormick of Chicago also remained in the committee room MT | Halbert declared they would stay until l they had secured a vote on his resolu-
 ton for consideration of all evidence in
 the contest cases, and would then again
 leave.

Mr.. Advertiser:

Do you know that you would have
to place your advertisement in about
FIVE papers Of ordinary circulation to
get the results you can get by placing
It in the St. Landry Clarion?
Do you know that even that would
scarcely give you the returns Of ONE
advertisement in the Clarion, because,
the fact that a paper has such a large
circulation carries with in the ndis-
putable evidence that it is a GOOD
paper, and the people want to read It?
Do you know that the Clarion has
added to its already large circulation,
that Of the St. Landry Commoner?
Do you know that no weekly pap
er in the State can offor an advertiser
such Inducements?
And do you know that the Clarion
has not increased It's advertising rates?
