be un the battlefield this morning met
with enthusiastic respons" These ltooss

rrcss urou TAFT delegates the chief argu-

riiguer, hat President Iirts renomi-
nation would not only bring defet, -
TAFT hvt would result IN defeat FOR all
Republican state ticket, and would also
bring defeat 10 candidates for all local
offices and would leave the House or
Representative; in the hands Of Demo-
crafts 10y AN overwhelming ma jortv
These arguments arc in I've used from
this time on in the ef,or, To- divert from
President Taft enough dolccatc- To dci,N,
his denomination and To- accomplish the
nomination ot cX-lresldeut Roosevelt,
'LtNS rHREArLNs.
Nr Finn va, bite this morning. Hc
had made no publ" u,tcrance since his
arrival h"r. several days ago. Standing
beside t,rv. G,a-scock of West Virginia,
Mr.. ! linn uttered a threat start ling in IL,
purpose and calculated to create dis
turbanC. IN the Taft ranks Gov. Gla-s-
rock conceded with Mr.. Finn remark.
They announced that if tn" Taft man
ayers proceeded with IN. plaus To steal"
the nomination in practically every State
where Iol. Roosevelt was the victor IN
tho primaries the electors would lie IN
structed to vot. for tn. cx-President
in N. electoral college whether or no, he
appeared in tn" field a. "a candidate.
Mr.. Finn and Coy. Glasscock believe
thai their announcement will stir up their
workers in he field and bring word from
candidate: for Congress and others per
-onallv concerned in the outcome of the
coming elect ions that may dissuade Taft
delegates here from further allegiance
to President Taft.
The exact situation portrayed by Mr. =.
lIuin aud Gov. tilasscock NAV be illus
rated hv conditions in Pennsylvania.
In iha, state tul. Roosevelt won in the
primaries by big vote. Thirty cf thirty
c,gh, electors are Roosevelt men
IF the Taft crowd steals this nomina-
ti"n wc viii adopt a course that will pre-
scrvc tho autonomy of our State organiza-
ION. declared Mr.. Finn. I'VE will
reasonable our state convention and di-
rec; our electors to vot. for Theodore
E"re"Nclt. This would be an open re-
ludiJtion NJ MIR. Taft by the party organi-
2J,'ior ct th" secoud largest State in the
Union. IhiS was tn. only alternative
"a H.. h., L., l..
bosses put Mr. Taft over with stolen
delegates. With Taft nominated by dis
honest means we in Pennsylvania would
meet certain defeat If We did not show
our rc-"utment. II would mean the loss
of ten to fifteen congressman, the State
ticket and of Cuurs" the electoral vote
wi wo&'r SUNNI" SAYS FILM.
Tn" national committee" continued
Mr., i'inu. is now in control of men who
haVe h"cn rcpudiatcd by the people
With tie adjournment of this convention
they will join the down and out club
They ar" attempting highway robbery
with the assistance of delegates from the
in-ular possessions and States that never
have cast AN electoral vote for a Rcpub-
lican candidate.
"Nc will not stand for such deal
II laft is nominated 10y fair means We
viii have no complaint to make. If the
nomination Is stolen it's all up with Taft
We Will not support him. II we submit
To this outrage here our State tickets will
lc destroyed "
Mr.. Finn was asked to explain the
report general in the Roosevelt camp
that with TAFT renominatad in this con
N"ntion tn" Roosevelt delegates will hold
what they call a --upcr-edlng" con ven
ton in III" Coliseum, nominal" Col Rou,e-
welt and cnd"avor to capture the new
national committee 80 that Col Roose-
,clt will he declared the regular candidate
oi tho Republican party
Il have never heard anything of this
>o-callcd supcrseding convention said
MIR Finn.
The sentiments expressed 10y Mr..
Fbun are my sentiments said Gov.
Glasscoch. Speaking for West Virginia
Republicans ] want to say that We have
named our electors They are Roosevelt
men. There is no legal way by which
Taft electors can be placed on The ticket
II the national committee proceeds on
It's present course, stealing Roosevelt
delegates wherever they may he found
the party in West Virginia will retaliate
hy instructinS its electors for Roose-
welt. We will not have to bolt
MICHIGAN IN LINE TOO

Urinary campaign for the Scnatorship
~ Michigan, ra id that what was true in
Pennsylvania and West Virginia was
true in his state.
Tho Republican party was born in
Michigan said Mr.. Joslin, -and we
rannot sec its principles violated as il
i',ng done by the national committees
without u protest think our electors
viii stand as Roos"vclt electors in de.
'inncc of IN" natiunal convention, if such
radical nt"p becomes necessary to pre-
s"rv" our s"lfrcs,mct.'
