After being in conference with Col
Roosevelt for half an hour, GOV. haoiey,
the Roosevelt floor leader, said:
II will continue in the fight on the
same lines as 1 have been following IN
the convention"
Asked about a report of a disagreement
between himself and Col. Roosevelt, he
denied there was any foundation for 1t.
Col Roosevelt will stay in the fight
to the end" said Mr.. Post. He Will
not withdraw under any circumstances" !"
Col Roosevelt was debating a state
ment setting forth his decision when the
announcement was made. Gov. Hadley,
whose name was heard everywhere about
the Roosevelt headquarters as the man to
whom some supporters Of the convention
would turn, was in secret conference with
the former President.
Senator Miles Poindexter of Washington
said as he left the conference room:
Nothing has been determined. The
convention will recess until O'Clock to-
night and the representatives OF the dele
gations will hold a meeting at pm. to
decide on all questions as to what course
shall be taken from now on
was any compromise candidate men,
toned in the conference? he was asked
mo. Tnero was HO oiSouSciOu VI
third candidate.
Were any plans for avertIng bolt
taken up?'
"Bolt," Says Poindexter.
NO It is certain that there will be
bolt. as you call it. l do not call 1t a
bolt. 1t is a beginning OF a new move
ment in politics. We will not be a faction
of the republican party: We will be a new
party, a new force in American politics"
declared the senator.
Does Col. Roosevelt's release OF his
delegates mean that they will go to any
other candidate?" he was asked.
mo, not at all. 1t simply means that
they will be free to act as they desire
Col. Roosevelt did not wish to hamper
any man by asking him to join in bolt
when bound by instructions to RoOse-
velt No great movement can succeed
IL its followers are under any restraint"
"Will the Roosevelt delegates leave the
convention"
That has not yet been decided. The
question OF whether we shall endeayor to
hold convention in the hall or leave
the building and hold our convention
separately will be taken up at this after
Moons meeting"

After two hours debate on the Alabama
case. members of the committee began to
demand that the rules be observed. I'm
der the rules the case would have occu-
pied but a half hour. Taft leaders on
the case declared. however, that they pro-
posed to let full discussion be had on all
cases, since charges of gag rules had
been raised against them.
MIR. dalbert of Minnesota, before the
decision on the Alabama case said Roose-
welt men favored taking the Alabama

Retract Threat to Quit.

Roosevelt members of the credentials
committee. acting under the suggestion of
Col Roosevelt, returned to the meeting
Of that committee today. Their state
nent last night that they had left the
committee for good was followed by a
decision to go back and participate in the
hearing OF contest cases
Under the revised rules the Roosevelt
mon claimed they had won their chief
points namely, to obtain the introduction
of new evidence and to secure greater
time for debate.
More than an hour and a quarter was
occupied by the Roosevelt attorneys in
presenting the Roosevelt side of the first
case called-that of the ninth Alabama
district.

The total number Of contests involved
in the Hadley resolution was seventy

The prospect of holding the national
convention idle for several days while
these were considered induced Roosevelt
men to agree to abandon the last group.
and center their fight on the others. Mr..
Halbert stated that seven or eight
Roosevelt men had agreed to the plan"
and that 1T would be formally presented

Places the Blame.

Democratic filibustering tactics in
the senate are intended to bring the
republican members to a vote on the
tariff bills before adjournment. OF
course republican votes will defeat
the democratic attemps to relieve
the people from some of their burden
of taxation and the high cost of liy-
ing. but the responsibility therefore
will he placed just where it belongs
on the republicans.
1t has been the plan of the repub-
licans to let those relief tariff bills
die in committee. In that way the
sacred special privilege tariff would
come through unscathed and the re-
publicans be saved the pain of going
on record as voting against the peo-
pies desires and in favor of the pro-
tected interests. The democrats
mean to force the republicans To go
on record and to stand before the peo-
pie IN their proper light.
The chances are that the bills, or
some of notably the wool and
sugar meaSures-wi be voted on
and defeated. But passed or defeated,
or passed and vetoed, the republicans
must face the blame for the failure
of congress to come to the relief of
the people and heed their demand for
something to aid them in their fight
with monopoly, special interests and
the high cost of living. The demo-
Gratis have shown their intentions and
the republicans have shown their
blockading power and their willing
ness to serve the interests and the
protective system as against the
needs of the consumers. And the
people won't forget Milwaukee

Wilson S Broad Appeal.

The practical wisdom of Governor
Wilson'S nomination is asserting itself
more every day. He is well fortified
to meet the requirements of the
country and the party That he has
the confidence of the business inter-
ests is shown by the fact that his nom-
nation did not cause the slightest
disturbance in the financial centers
that are supposed to be barometers of
the business welfare. All the big
corporations are working almost to
the limit of their capacity. The
Baldwin locomotive works, of Phila-
delphia, which employs $1,000 men in
one plant, announced within the
week that it would work to capacity
for a year to come on present orders.
Every day sees the conversion of in
fluential republicans to the governors
allegiance, notable among whom is G.
r. Crane, the Chicago millionaire,
who, long supported Roosevelt. Added
to these favorable signs the govern
ment crop reports point to a bumper
yield, so it would seem that even
Providence approved the selection of
the noted Princeton man TO lead the
democratic hopes to victory.

Bird and Beast Sanctuary.

Remote from all large centers OF
population a bird and beast sanctuary
has been established in the Upper
Engadine in Switzerland. This Is the
Va. Cluoza, near ZerLetz and not far
from the Ofen Pass. 1t is a well
wooded spot OF considerable area
carefully watched. and in the summer
continually patrolled by keepers.
One OF these, who has just returned
to St Moritz from a visit, found the
park completely showed under to a
depth of more than four feet In 1t
were FIVE herds of channels, one of
which numbered lat head, besides a
great number OF roebuck and deer, to-
gether With bears, foxes and other
smaller Alpine animals. Fiocks of
snow hens were also wintering in the
sanctuary with numerous crossbills,

CHARLES A. Coon, former news
paper man of Marshfield, but who has
been with the Wisconsin Advance
ment association in Milwaukee, tried
to commit suicide last Friday by
shooting himself, as he supposed
through the heart. He was found
unconscious and taken to a hospital.
Unless infection sets in he will re-
cover. He committed the deed be-
cause he imagined he was a failure in
life. AS he has wife and three little
children the act was cowardly one.
In the first place man has no right
to contract habits which unfit him
for making a comfortable living for
his family. 1t were better for man
to work upon the streets to assist in
supporting his family than to kill
/ ,mself and leave a wife and little
children to support themselves. There
is no other conclusion one can come
to than that it was a cowardly act.
We hope Mr.. Coon will make a live
of it and try in the future to pursue
the life which he marked out for
others in what he supposed was his
last letter.

that someone had sent a bomb to
President Taft. Usually this would
have caused intense excitement, but
considering the fact that our chief

the Bull Moose fighter, it's news was
generally tossed off with the observa-
