The committee then took up the
Indiana contests, beginning with the
delegates at large. Previously II had
put over the Arizona contests until
Wednesday.
The electricity In the air showed
again when Horace c. Stilwell, of An
derson, Ind. speaking for the contest
ants, said:
IL ask that you stop the process of
the steam roller"
Chairman Rosewater began beating
the desk with his gavel and ordered
Stilwell to confine his remarks TO the
contest.
81 object" shouted Committeeman
Thomas II. Devine, jumping TO his
feet There is no steam roller here. .
Borah wanted to know why II was
necessary for Devine to disclaim the
fact that there was a steam roller.
Deyine replied: Either you or your
associates are constantly passing out
to the newspaper men that there Is a
steam roller here"
, ut isn't necessary for us to peddle
II out to the newspapermen that there
Is steam roller here. They know
one when they see 1t and they can
tell whether there is or is not such a
machine"
Here Chairman Rosewater again
raped for order, and told Stilwell to
proceed. This aroused Senator Borah,
who shouted:
II want 1t understood that the chair
man NJ thic noun,ftfao &c not tho
committee, but only the chairman. He
has no right to interrupt, as he does
every speaker, who does not confine
his remarks to things that are pleas
ant to his ears. This committee is
not school and the chairman Is not
q schoolmaster."
Il am member OF this committee"
answered Chairman Rosewater.
Yes and nothing more than a mem
Der. The committee itself is judge of
what 1t wishes to hear, and for one
/ am tired of the little schoolmasterly
speeches with which the chairman has
interrupted various speakers before
this committee. Let the committee
members do their own Directing, II
they please. When they object, It is
time for the chairman to act and not
before
and, after some hesitation, said: The
chair is very pleased to have his
remarks characterized as schoolmas-
terIy."
After Stilwell got through the case
of the Taft delegates was presented
by Morrill, Moores, of indianapolis.

Dick, sent over till Wednesday. The
Roosevelt forces. despite the import
ance o fthe matter, were only able to
muster IL members OF the committee
In their attempt to force immediate
action. They gained slight conces-
sion. however. when the committee
unanimously put on the temporary roll
| call all OF the uncontested Roosevelt
delegates from California. This &C
ton, however could be reviewed at
any time by two-thirds vote of the
committee
The 13 Roosevelt votes were cast by
George A. knight, California; w. Z.

Previous to this action, bitter per-
sonalities were INDUCED in. Borah
forced Dick to admit that the entire
California delegations right to seats
was questioned because of the fact
that the direct primary law does not
conform with the call of the COM
mittee for the election of delegates.
Borah fatty accused the Taft uen of
getting things In readiness to uhscat
all OF the California delegates.
Francis ]. Heney, for the Roosevelt
delegates whose seats were in Ques-
ton, assailed the majority Of the com
mittee for plotting to disfranchise a
sovereign state" Chairman Victor
Rosewater told him that he was pres
ent only by courtesy and that he was
insulting the committee. Other Taft
men took the same view, and then
Borah, his face livid with anger and
his attitude breathing defiance, de-
clared that II the committee did not
want to hear the truth from an out.

Just when II seemed tnat a general

Heney said he had proof that the Taft

Republicans and Protection

The tariff will be one of the
great issues in the coming cam
paign. 1t is the subject which has
been most discussed In the last few
years. In regard to it the plat
form adopted at Chicago shows
clearly where the party stands.
1t reaffirms the party's devotion
to the principle of protection to
American industries. Yet it de-
clares that some duties now i'm
posed are too high and should be
reduced.
The Republican party does not
look upon any particular tariff as
something sacred, never to be in
terfered with. All protective tar
ifs are with it but means to pro-
mote the Industrial development
of the country and enable the
American people to maintain their
high standard Of living. A tariff
which is higher than may be re-
quisite to achieve this end should
be reduced. But the Republicans
refuse to Join the Democrats In
declaring that the reduction should
be so great that the protective ele-
ment still needed would be cut
out except as an incident to the
collection of revenue.
The Republican tariff is not a
wall built around this country to
exclude foreign trade. It IL q
