Chicago, Aug. 5.-The followers O
Colonel Roosevelt who feel that hs
was not given square deal at the
Chicago convention which renomi
mated William II. Taft for president
on the republican ticket, met in con
vention here today as the nationa
progressive party Although tickets
were sold from $40 to $40. prices be
low those which prevailed at the reg
ular republican convention and at the
democratic convention at Baltimore
the Coliseum was filled with enthusi
astic admirers of the ex-president
from all the states of the Union. II
is probable that the managers of the
national progressive party will have
some difficulty settling the claims OF
some negro delegates from Southern
states, before the convention gets
down to business, because in few
instances separate conventions were
held by leaders of the negroes and
the lilly white" movement. From
statements already made by Senator
Dixon, manager for Colonel Roose-
velt, there is little doubt that the ne
groes will lose their fight.
Ex-United States Senator Albert J.
Beveridge of Indiana, who is expect
ed to carry that state for governor on
the third party ticket, is temporary
chairman of the progressive party's
convention. Three days, possibly
four, will be the duration of the con-
vention. The tickets provide for four
days, but the details may be finished,
nominations made and all business
finished so that the delegates can get
away next Thursday morning. The
tickets were distributed with prefer.
ence shown toward applicants who
contributed money toward expenses
Senator Dixon and Medill Mccormick,
the Roosevelt leader in Illinois, have
had charge of the distribution and
say that the sale of tickets will de-
fray the costs of the convention
s25,000.
Home rule" is to be the policy in
the formation of the national progres.
sive party. In fact, Colonel Roose-
welt has such an extensive plan for
the future Of the new party that he
does not expect it to be thoroughly
worked out at the present conven.
tion. He will address the delegates
at the Coliseum tonight and much of
his speech. which will be the longest
Mr.. Roosevelt has ever made, by the
way, will be devoted to his idea of
what the national progressive party
shall be.
The convention, so far as the selec-
tion of president and vice president
is concerned, will act really as can
board. In the states will be
held primaries, not only for candi-
dates for president and vice presi-
dent but for congressman to be elect
