controversy. Inc onry question was
whether the total vote of the state
should override the wishes OF the Re-
publicans in this particular district,
and 1t was decided as similar ques-
tons have been decided in Republi-
can conventions since 1880. Since
that date 1t has always been the rule
that the congressional district should
be the unit for representation In Ma
tional conventions. This congression-
al district in California declared it's
preference for Taft and II certainly
had the right to have that preference
represented even though the majority

Attempted Steal for Roosevelt.
And 30 one by one these contests
could be taken up and 1t could be
shown to the complete satisfaction of
every fair-minded man that they were
determined according to the law and
evidence. There was no nomination
stolen at Chicago for President Taft.
There was a desperate attempt made
to steal the nomination for Col. Roose-
welt but happily it was frustrated.
With the audacity which has always
characterized his political career, Col.
Roosevelt is attempting to divert the
attention of the country from the man.
nomination for himself by noisy and
vehement accusation of theft against
his competitor. 1t is time the truth
were known. 1t is time an end were
brought to the gross ISLANDERS against
the president Of the United States and
against hundreds of honest and honor
able men who made up the convention
which nominated him.
Documents in which the truth re-
garding all these contests is carefully
set forth may be had by addressing
the Republican National committee,
Auditorium Hotel, Chicago. And IL
any of the readers of this paper still
have any lingering doubts in their
mind upon the subject, they should
secure a copy of such documents. No
citizen of the United States should
allow himself to be led into an insult
ing clamor against the president OF
his country without full understand
ing of all the facts in the case.

CANVASS OF INDIANA

ment 10 Now on the
Decline.

Indianapolis, Ind, Sept, Boa care
full canvass has been made of the
Roosevelt sentiment In every county
In this state. The inquiry was start
ed by a prominent business man OF
this city, who was anxious to learn
for himself the true condition of az
fairs. He sent out a large number Of
letters to men In each of the coun-
ties who were not politicians and
would have no incentive to falsify, the
situation. The replies showed that In
every county In the state, with one
exception. there had been a marked
decrease in the Roosevelt sentiment.
The opinion was universally ex-
pressed that the Third Term candi-
date had fewer followers now In In
diana than at any time since the cam
paign opened and this number was
steadily decreasing. A few of these
reports summarized are as follows:
White county-"Ours is an agricuI-
tural community and the farmers all
seem satisfied with conditions and
are not calling for a change, I see
