PRESIDENTIAL PRIMARIES.
Norris of Nebraska Has a Plan to
Remedy the Alleged Evils.

Washington, July 5.-Rep. Norris of
Nebraska. Progressive Republican, to-
day, introduced bill which he de-
clared would remedy the evils of Pres
idential primaries.
In a prepared statement ne declar-
ed that recent events have clearly
demonstrated to the people how it is
possible for well regulated and well
oiled political machine to trample UNI
der foot the wishes of the rank and
file of any political party"
The Norris bill provides for prim-
aries on the first Tuesday of May in
the year a President is to be elected:
and for national convention on the
fourth Monday in June of that year,
in which the representation would be
based upon the strength of the differ
|ent political parties in the different
|states
The Norris bill would provide for
the election of delegates to the con-
vention at the primaries and will per-
init voters to express a first and sec
Eond choice for Presidential candidates
The result of the election would be
certified by state officials to the sec
|retary of the interior who would cam
vass the votes.
The candidate having a majority of
the Presidential votes would become
the nominee of his party and no action
Iof the convention would be necessary.

Madison, Wis, July 5.-United States
Senator La Toilette in a printed ar
ticle, today. asked Colonel Roosevelt

pense account, or else "a candid state
ment of his reasons for thus spurn-
ing one of the basic principles of
public morality and political decency.
When La Toilette made public a

called on Roosevelt to do likewise.
There has been no response.

ROOSEVELT ATTACKS BOTH
PARTIES ON ANTITRUST Law.
Says They Are Wrong in Calling for Rigid
Enforcement-=The Democratic Party Will
Ruin the Country=-La Toilette Asks
Colonel to ileExpense Account.
ATTACKS BOTH PARTIES.

oyster Bay. n. Y, July 5.-The plat
form of both the Republican and Dem
ocratie parties call for a rigid en-
forcemert of the antitrust law. They
are wrong.
so declared Theodore Roosevelt, to-
day.
The former President said that in his
campaign he will attack both parties
upon this score. He intends to take the
position which he outlined in his
speech at Osawatomie. Kas.. two years
ago. when he said that the great bust
ness enterprises of the country had
come to stay and should be controlled
by means of close supervision by the
national government. To attempt to
abolish them, he said, today, was flu

Col. Roosevelt said that the Demo-
cratic party had taken an untenable
position In regard to the tariff, which.
If rigidly adhered to. would mean
ruin to the country.
He also denied a report, which ap-
peared, this morning, that he had of
fered the nomination for Vice Presi-
dent 20 Judge Ben Lindsey of Denver.
Last week it was Heney to whom |
had offered the Vice Presidency" he
said. To-day. it is Judge Lindsey. Tho
fact that | have not offered the plafe
to any human being is utterly irrele-
want. If the convention dominates me
for President it certainly won't wish
to have me name the Vice President,
That must he done by the people, The
convention will decide"
Referring again to tie trust problem,
Colonel Roosevelt said that the plat
forms of the Democratic and Republic
can parties had failed to grasp the sit
Gaticn which confront the country.
The Sherman antitrust law was on
the statute books for years. he said,
"and it was never enforced until ] be

and speeches that the law was wrong
but that as long as it was law,
would enforce it,"

the colonel which was never meant to

cratic or Republican party should go
into power and attempt to live up to
its pledge it would work great harm.
If strictly enforced. he continued. the
law would do much damage to unof-

have formed cooperative associations.

"Wild Bill EndicOtt Makes

miles, and giving the special signifi
canoe to great races of the season in
this section of New England, the driv-

today, plenty of excitement. "WilG

winning the event in the last two
miles. Endicott established a new
record for the Old Orchard course and
brought the crowd standing as he
came down the home stretch, after
trailing in second place for 80 of the
100 miles drive.
Not until the last turn on the east
ern end of the course did Endicott
appear to have any great chance OF
taking the lead from Jack Rutherford,
the millionaire speed driver, but at that
point Endicott was about 20 feet in
the rear. and Rutherford's chances
were ruined in the five mile when a
connecting rod broke and put the big
National into second place.
Another thrilling race was the five
mile free for all which was won by
Speed King" Louis Dishrow in the
fast Simplex Zip. While Disbrow won
the race, he was hard driven every
inch of the five miles by Dave Lewis
in Stutz car which finished less than
one second behind the Simplex.

10-mile race July 4, had the toughest
sort of luck, today. in the 50-mile

Another corking race was the spe-

which was won by the f. M. F.. car

Cruise Even More Successful Than the
First Day--Cood Breeze Prevails and
The Racers Skip Over the e.
Mile Course in Good Time.

Boothbay Harbor, Me, July 5.-The
second run of the Eastern Yacht club
squadron along the Maine coast, to-
day, was even more successful than
that of yesterday, both from a rae
ing and from a cruising standpoint
Favorable and increasing winds sent
the racers skipping along on their %
mile course, while the less strenuous
portion of the fleet lodged in one of
the best narbors on the coast. The
racing honors of the day were won
by the schooners Enehantress. owned
by William f. lselin, the Taormina,
owned and sailed by William Seaton
by Harold 5. Vanderbilt, and the
sloops Doris, owned and sailed by
S. Reed Anthony and Dorello, owned
and sailed by Barclay Henry of the
Philadelphia Corinthian Yacht Cub,
with the eastern cruise by invitation.
For time it was thought the En-
chantress had scored two successive
victories over the Elena, but, this
afternoon, a typographical error was
discovered in the summary of the first
run of the cruise and the Elena and
Shiyessa " were found to have won
tho prizes, yesterday, in the first and
third division for schooners instead of
the Enchantress and Nagrant.

difficulty. today, In getting the time

the race was given TO the Enehant-
ress on time allowance. The Irolita
WAS also within some seconds of
Elena when 1t came TO reckoning up
the time allowance, SO that the race
was one of the closest in which all
three had contended for some time.
The Taormina wen with some minutes
to spare in her division, although
more than a minute astern of the
Princess and Muriel at the finish. The
Doris was another boat that brought
up the rear but captured the trophy

with her time allowance over the
Avenger and Shimna.
The day did not promise much when
morning colors were sounded from the
flagship, but an hour later a nice lit
tie breeze came pulling in through
White Head passage and soon had
strengthened to blow the yachts out to
the starting, line at Witch Rock buoy.
The race was started at II O'Clock and
as usual the little yachts were sent
away ahead of the big ones, with the
Elena, Enchantress and Irolita bring
ing up the rear.
By the time all the yachts were
away, the breeze had hauled into the
south. southeast and what was at first
close stretch became broad reach
on the starboard tack. The wind in
creased steadily and the large boats
walked by the small ones, until at l P.
NJ, the Elena was leading the feet
off Segrin and had the race in her d.
vision apparently we'll in hand. The
Elena turned the Bantam rock whist

ahead of her rivals and jibing
around broke out her spinnaker To
port and headed for the finish off the
Cuckolds, four miles to leeward. But
astern the Enchantress and Irolita
We're gathering up great chunks of
wind and each puff enabled them to
gain on the Plant yacht A mile lead
was soon reduced to half mile and
then to q few hundred yards. There
was about 40 seconds difference be-
tween the Elena and Enchantress at
the finish and about two minutes be-
tween the Elena and Irolita.
The same conditions prevailed in
other divisions with the stern yachts
overhaulng the leaders.
Tile racing portion of the fleet was
in the harbor by mid-afternoon and
the cruisers joined little later. The
