 The national committee seated the Taft delegates from the 3rd Arkansas
 district. They are R. s. Granger and J. F. Mazie. The vote at the con- clusion was unanimous on motion of Frank B. Kellogg, a Roosevelt man. A statement issued at the Taft Headquarters by Director Mckinley. of the Presidents campaign, bitterly rapped Roosevelt for the statement Yt;h which he was credited in Oyster " despatclss. today, regarding the action of the national committee on the Alabama delegates.
 "Roosevelt's statement" said Me Kinley, 'fs in line with his general conduct of making long distance com ments. His saying that he was being robbed of delegates by the commit tee is not in line with what his own friends on the committee said when they declared the contests were built on too flimsy charges
 Mckinley said that it was reported to him that, in the platform which Roosevelt would have put before the convention, the Colonel has abandon ed his ideas of the recall of judicial decisions. McKin1ey's statement de- clared:
 Roosevelt would like to make most dramatic entrance into Chicago. He would like to enter the conven- ton hall amid the acclaim of his fol- lowers which would be music to his egotistical ears.

TAFT GETS
 ARKANSAS'
 DELEGATES
Unanimous Vote Gives Him the
 Fourth Arkansas District

Chicago, June S-The overnight rest had failed to change the attitude of any of the members of the Repubh- can National Committee and when it work of compiling the temporary roll of the convention it was conceded that the outcome would be a strengthening of the Taft forces.
 The first matter considered today was the district contests in Arkansas beginning with the 3rd district The Arizona and California contests have been put over until next week. This was done, so far as California was concerned, in order to permit Francis J. Heney to be present and argue the case for the Roosevelt men in Cali fornia.
 While on the face of things there that from the 4th district, the uphold ing of the contentious of the Taft following would really mean the fn- validating of the entire California, Oregon and North Dakota district del- egations.
 The California contest sets forth that, under the call of the Republican National Committee, delegates are to be elected at large and from Con- gressional districts. This, it is de- ciared, was not done in California and had it been done Taft would have had the 4th district.
 The argument on the 3rd Arkansas contest, the first taken up by the committee today, was heated and bit ter at times. The Taft men alleged that their delegates. R. 8. Granger and J. F. Mayes, were elected at the regular convention and that there were no contests whatever On the other hand, the Roosevelt forces in- sisted that many of the regular dele gates were refused recognition, that the entire representation from Breton county was refused recognition and throughout the lilly white" dominaf- ed the situation and refused the negro voters any recognition whatever
 The committee seated the delegates in the 4th Arkansas district. There was the usual roll call and the vote was unanimous.

Freddy" Was Many Years Getting Onto the Band Wagon Democratic Lead CT Shows.

Chicagp. -1une s-Tllustrating tho p6ants of sfmilarity and difference in comparing Colonel Roosevelt to the Democratic party. William Jennings Bryan, in an interview copyrighted by the Newspaper Enterprise Association today compares the Colonel with him. self on 12 questions, upon half of which they agree. Bryan says:
 ''Colonel Roosevelt believes in a third Presidential term. am not only opposed to a third term but favor an amendment to the constitu-
 ton limiting the President to a sin
 gle term. He desires international
 peace through increasing our navy So as to make other nations fear us.
 believe in policy of justice to all nations and a persuasive influence ot a good example. During his seven and a half years as President, Colonel Roosevelt did not discuss the tariff. If he had any objection to the existing law he would trying to secure a reduction. I favor a tariff for revenue only and immed- fate reduction along the lines of the last Democratic national platform. t'Mr. Roosevelt stands for regulation of trusts rather than for prevention.
 
 he tested regulation we had more trusts than when he went into the White House. I believe that a pri- vate monopoly is indefensible and in- tolerable and favor laws making it impossible for a private monopoly to exist MT. Roosevelt believes in i'm perialism. am opposed to imperial ism and believe the holding of colonies antagonistic to the principles of re- public. Mr. Roosevelt is Hamilton ian in his ideas of government. am Jeffersonian.
 eve have differed upon the election of Senators by the people. I began advocating this reform 2 years ago. Mir. Roosevelt first said he favored the popular election of Senators about two years ago. I have been advo- eating an income tax for many years. He advocated it first toward the close of his second administration. have, for number of years, advocated pub licity before election as to campaign contributions. Since 1908 Mr. Roose- welt has come around to that idea. have favored the initiative and refer endum for 16 years, He opposed both until within the last two years. We both believe in the primary. We both believe that there is Wall street in huence and that. there are subsidized newspaper but I discovered it many years before he did"
 ROOSEVELT SARCASTIC. Oyster Bay, June 8-"There is no way in which I can tell all the diff erences between MT. Bryan and my self" said Colonel Roosevelt today, when told what William J. Bryan had said about the differences and similar ities that existed between the Colonel and himself
 There is onily one way to conn pare MT. Bryan and myself. That is, to compare his words with my ac- tions," said the Colonel
 Governor Bass of New Hampshire, Mathew Salee of Boston,, Charles H. Thompson of Vermont, and William Draper Lewis of the University of Pennsylvania law department, were visitors at, Sagamore Hill today, and had luncheon with Colonel Roosevelt. Lewis is scheduled to .aecond Roose- velt's nomination at Chicago.

SOUTH PATRONIzES own
INSURANCE COMPANIES
Though Much Business Goes
Outside

Atlanta, April lin the course of
reports Just compiled in Atlanta in
with the recent convention
of the Association of Southern Fire
Insurance companies, it is shown that
though Southern companies and
Southern industries have been liber-
ally patronized during the last few
years, and are growing in strength
and solidity. still the section is being
drained annually of hundreds of
thousands of dollars which still go
North for protection that could be
equally well obtained at home.
Business men in discussing this sit
uation point out the vast benefits that
would accrue to the business and the
public if this money were kept in
Southern circulation and invested in
local improvements and enterprises.
The convention was probably one oi
the most representative gatherings OF
its kind ever held in Atlanta. TWEEN
ty-one companies located throughout
the South were represented at the
gathering. The officers of the asso'
citation are H. B. Bush, of Greensboro
n. c., president; John j. Mckay, Of
Macon, Ga, vice president; and Dow
dell Brown, of Atlanta, Ga, secretary
and treasurer.
In addition to the officers named
the executive committee is composed

MATERIALS FOR
SPRING ATTIRE
Stripes and Checks and How
Made Up

New York, April 1.-So-called towel
ing, taffeta, bengaline, hopsack and
serge are the materials whereof We
are making, or having made, out
spring costumes and the girl who has
difficulty in bringing two ends to {;
meeting point has probably knitted
her brows many times over the prob
lem of which is likely to serve her
purpose best.
And how is it to be made? What are
the special features for the spring
costume?
Taffeta is not an expensive silk, but
only good quality can stand constant
wear, and the taffeta costume should
in consequence be reserved for spec
ial OCCASIONS, unless a certain amount
of money is to be laid out upon it. The
new silks look for all the world as
though they had come out of some
color-print of mid-Victorian days.
There are quaint stripes and checks
and mixtures of tones such as one
might encounter when turning over Il
number of the ample-skirted, frilled
and fiounced frocks worn by our moth
ers and grandmothers. Red and blue
is favorite mixture, and to trim
these frocks there must be the little
old-world kits and bouillonnes such
as one used to see in the dresses i"
question.
