A conference was held between

vention by the vote Of 81 for Parker,
20 for James, and 2 for O'Gorman.

rural route carrier out of Huston
vile and a member of one of the
best known families in the West End
of Lincoln. His many friends were
very hopeful that the higher court
would reverse the finding of the low
or tribunal. The ease was one of
the hardest fought in the courts in

EDITORIAL
Harvey Helms Position
On Temperance Legislation

Col. Jack Chinn, of Harrodsburg,
withdrew from the race for Con-
gress in this district Monday, an
nouncing his withdrawal in a speech
at Lancaster in which he proved the
belief of many democrats that he
had merely been stalking horse for
Judge Sullivan throughout the entire
contest.
In attempting TO injure Harvey
Helm all he could in his valedictory
Col. Chinn declared that the fight
would now be waged between Sulli-'
van and Helm with the Whisky
Democrats backing Helm. As Col.
Chinn has frequently stated in his
own canvass that if the might rid
ers, toll gate raiders and fox hunt
ers" would vote for him the other
fellows could have the preachers
and prohibitionists" one might be in
clined to wonder whether Col. Chinn
gave the subject sober thought be-
fore asserting so positively that the
whisky men have made such a sud
zen switch in their preference.
Col. Chinn wants to know what is
Congressman Helms attitude and
asks il he will oppose the shipment
of liquor into dry territory.
The Interior Journal is hardly in
cined to believe that Mr.. Helm will
feel violently constrained to give
Col. Chinn a categorical answer to
this question, in view Of Chinn's
own conduct in the present race.
As temperance newspaper at all
times, however, the Interior Journal
feels inclined to state right here for
itself that it knows Congressman
Helms position on this matter, and
IS completely satisfied with it. 1t
knows that he stands pledged t.
support the Shepard-Kenyon bill
in Congress, which will prohibit the
Interstate shipment of liquor into
dry territory. Ii further knows that
leading temperance men in the dis
trict who have inquired his position
on this bill-the only measure the
temperance people have asked him
to support-have been fully salts
fled that he is heartily for it and
pledged himself for it long before
Col. Chinn or any one else with an
ulterior purpose to serve, thought to
embarass him by asking him such
a question.
The charge that Harvey Helm
has aligned himself with the whisky
, interests is as base falsehood as
the accusation made by a Danville
paper that he fought McCreary and
| his friends.

TAFT AND TEDDY BOTH
TO RUN FOR PRESIDENT
Taft Gets Regular Republican Nomi-
nation, While Roosevelt viii
Form Third Party

With only 81 more than a ma
iority of the delegates to the repub-
ican national convention, Taft and
Sherman were renominated for pres
ident and vice president by the con-
vention at Chicago Saturday night.
The Roosevelt followers imme-
diately withdrew from the conven-
ton and organized another conven-
ton and nominated Roosevelt for
president at the head of a progress
sive party, as his organization will
probably be known. The governors
of such solidly republican states as
California, New Hampshire, West
Virginia, ETC., were present with the
Roosevelt forces.
A colored preacher offered pray
er when the Roosevelt convention
met which is said to mean that the
negro republicans will be solidly be-
hind the Roosevelt candidacy and
against Taft.
In accepting the nomination, Col.
Roosevelt appealed to the people Of
all sections, regardless of party af-
flliations, to stand with the founders
OF the new party, one of whose car
dinal principles, he said, was to be
Thou Shalt Not Steal"
The q. o. p. seems hopelessly

where that the democratic nominee
will be elected president.
