The conference later was to break into

IN A FIGHTING MOOD
Roosevelt Aroused to Anger by
Decisions on Contests.
DUBS OPPONENTS BOILERS
Says Thirty-Seven Taft Men on Ma
tional Committee Have Shown Dis
loyalty to Party.

OYSTER BAY. N. z. June l3.-"They
are boiling from the republican party at
this moment" said Col. Roosevelt last
night Of supporters Of President Taft on
the republican national committee.
The former President was aroused to a
fighting mood by the news which reached
him over his private wires from Chicago.
He denounced with all the emphasis he
could command the action Of the national
committee in deciding the contests for
seats in the national convention from
Arizona and California.
He declared that the thirty-seven Taft
supporters on the national committee
have shown their profound and abiding
disloyalty to the party which in theory
they represent. and which in practice they
have betrayed"
Col. Roosevelt laid special emphasis
upon the seating Of the Taft delegates
from the fourth California district. He
said that of the thirty national
committeeman who have robbed the
republicans Of California of two Of their
delegates and have presented the stolen
goods to Mr.. Taft. there is just one man
who is entitled to speak for the repub-
licans Of his state"
The colonel expressed tho opinion that
the national convention would not ratify
the seating of the Taft delegates from
California.
What do you think the, twenty-four
Roosevelt delegates already seated from
California will do IL the convention de-
clines to admit the other two?" Col.
Roosevelt was asked.
Il am not going to try to say what
they will do" he replied. Il am not
making any prophecies"

UGLY CHARGES MADE
Roosevelt Forces Accused Of
Bribery by Mckinley.
DESPERATION is ALLEGED
Says Plot Includes Attempt to Cap

DESPERATION is ALLEGED

CHICAGO. June 13-Director William
B. Mckinley of the national Taft bureau
last night issued the following statement:
president Taft today has a majority of
the republican national convention in
structed for or pledged to his candidacy
for denomination for President and he
will be renominated on the first ballot at
the Chicago convention. Confronted by
certainty of defeat. men high in the coun-
ellis of the Roosevelt camp are planning
most desperate measures to prevent the
inevitable. These measures include at
tempts at the actual bribery Of Taft dele
gates and an attempt to capture the re-
publican national convention by force.
The effort to corrupt the Taft dele
gates to the Chicago convention has been
under way for several weeks. 1t is COM
mon knowledge that seven weeks ago
money was sent to two Taft instructed
delegates in certain southern state by
telegraph. by a well known Roosevelt
leader, now in Chicago, following which
these two delegates changed their al
legiance from TAFT to Roosevelt in a pup
lie statement issued by Senator Joseph NJ
Dixon, Mr.. RooSevelts national campaign
manager.
within the past week two men sent
from New York to southern state Fave
braZenly approached tart delegates WIFI
offers of money in return for votes for
Roosevelt. Other agents on a similar
mission have made their appearance in
several states recently.
Charges Effort to Buy Nomination.
That a well defined effort is on foot to
buy the presidential nomination for
Theodore Roosevelt is beyond question.
1t is the first time in the history of the
country that the presidential Office, as
such. has been scandalized by such meth
DDS. The honesty and integrity of the
republican party as represented by it's
delegates to the coming convention is now
being seriously tested by the political
agents OF man who has twice been
elected President Of the United States by
the republican party. and who has as
sumed unto himself. in this campaign at
least, all the virtues and none Of the
vices Of humankind. Such tactics can
only make more certain the defeat of Mr..
Roosevelt AS a matter of fact, Mr..
Roosevelt. who is. doubtless. personally
uniformed as to these matters should
come to Chicago, inform himself and end
such disgraceful work being done in his
name.

There he had little chance Of finding a place in which to grow, and there,

POOR KID.

When You go home at night and
your baby boy meets you at the door
with a more or less soiled ppearan
with his face not exactly clean-but
with a glad cry of welcome-you
wouldn't trade positions will all the
millionaires of the country.
But there are kids and kids. Just
now the 3-year-old Mclean kid of
Washington is attracting a lot Of at
tention. He is heir to 500, 900, 900.
When he travels from one city to an
other he has a special train. There
are nurses galore to look after his
bodily comforts and a force of detec-
ttves to prevent kidnapping.
When he was a baby he was wheeled
around in a steel crib that looked more
like a jail perambulating and detec-
tives s~trolled behind the nurses to
ward off all danger. The %youngster is
insured against kidnapping.
But does this little fellow have the
fun of the average kid? His almost
unlimited wealth doesn't make him
happier-doesn't give his parents the
comfort they would otherwise feel il
he were less protected and guarded.
How much better off his young Nc
Lean would be-were he able to u
around in the road and make mud pies
and come home dirty and smiling
and happy. Some n has said it's
hell to be poor-but it's worse to be too
rich.

FARM HON Es.

One of the most encouraging signs
Of the times in North Dakota is the
improvement of the farm homes. A
remarkable change has occurred with
In the past decade. Many farmers
have residences that are superior to
those occupied by men of wealth in the
cities-and they are equipped with all
modern con~veniences. This is easy in
localities where there are flowing wells
and water can be forced through the
house and into each room in which it
Is needed,
Some OF the farm homes are so COM
Portable he occupants wouldn't think
of exchanging them for those in town.
That 10 n great secret of keeping
the people satisfied with their exist
eflce.
Comfortable country homes and
surroundings are attracting more at
tention today than ever beforehand
the farmers-the people most directly
interested-are studying the different
phases Of the problem. A Fargo man
who spent three weeks in the homes of
the better farmers in the Red river
valley came back so elated with the
things he found that he wants to buy
a farm and get back close to nature.
He said he found many farm homes
that cost $4,000 and occasionally some
that were worth a great deal more
and had every modern convenience.
That's living at home and boarding
at the same place.
