COMMITTEE SEATING
The TAFT DELEGATES
THE VOTES ADDED TO PRESI.
DENTS STRENGTH.
Roosevelt Loses in All Contests Decid-
ed Friday by National Republi-
can Committee.

can 1OMMltttte
Chicago, June 7.-Twenty-four dele
gates from Alabama and Arkansas
were added today to the Taft column
,by the action of the Republican ma
tionai committee on the so-called
Roosevelt contests from those States.
All contests presented before the COM
mittee today were decided in Taft's fa-
yor and in all but two the decision
of the committee was unanimous. One
roll-call test, apparently, has shown
fifteen anti-Taft votes.
The cases decided today were those
of the six delegates at large and the
two each in the 1st, I'd, 5th, 9Th and 9Th
Congressional districts in Alabama
and the four delegates at large and the
two each in the 1st and I'd districts of
Arkansas.
There remain to be heard of the
Arkansas contest those in the Sd, 4th,
5th and 7th districts.
The contest over the six delegates
at large from Arizona was postponed
until later day on motion OF Commit
teeman Penrose, OF Pennsylvania.
Peaceful, So Far.
In view of the bitter feeling between
the Taft and Roosevelt adherents the
meeting was surprisingly peaceful, al
though it opened with contest which
seemed to forecast a degree of friction.
This, however, failed to materialize.
Colonel Wants Only "Justice."
Oyster Bay, N. j., June 7.-"Justice
and no more than justice" is all he
wants from the Republican national
committee Col Roosevelt said tonight.
After hearing what happened in Chi
cago today, when the contests from
Alabama were decided by the commit
tee, Col. Roosevelt intimated that it
was his purpose to give his managers
a free hand in fighting for contested
delegates.
.They know the details and I don't"
he explained.
81 told nv managers before they
went to Chicago he added, that 1
did not expect any of the delegate con-
tests to be decided for me that 1 was
not entitled to- l said wanted justice
and no more than justice.
In Alabama l thought one district
was for me-"
The colonel reached into an inside
pocket and carefully unfolded sheet
of paper, placing an envelope over it
I'm such a way that only the first type
written line was visible. From that
line it was apparent that the document
contained the colonel's own estimate
>ef the standing of delegates.
The line read:
Alabama: Taft %; Roosevelt 3"
81 don't think care to show you the
rest of this" said the colonel, smiling,
sbut you can see that l had not
counted on more than two delegates
from Alabama
Whether Col. Roosevelt is to go to
Chicago apparently was as far as eve!
from being decided today. In re-
sponsa to all rumors, pro and con, he
said that he did not know.

THE NEGRO VOTE.

The managers of the Taft campaign
are known to be uneasy resard!l's
the negro vote. They are SAID 10 DC
afraid that the bulk Of this vote III
the Northern and Western States Is
inclined towards Roosevelt, and steps
are being taken to counteract Ger
tain influences that have been at
work in the interest Oh the Bull Moose
candidate. II will be recalled chat
in the spring primaries the negroes in
MARYLAND, Pennsylvania, New jersey,
Massachusetts, Ohio, Illinois, Indiana.
and other States generally supported
Roosevelt or Taft In the Presidents
own State of Ohio the negroes We're
particularly enthusiastic for Roose-
welt, and in one Of the Congressional
districts Of the city Of Cincinnati,

ALEXANDRINS CONTRIBUTION

Alexandria's contribution TO the
Democratic presidential campaign
fund is growing steadily. Through
the Wilson Marshall and Carlin Club
subscriptions are being received and
it is hoped that the sum Of $1,000 wall
be received shortly.
In the past few days much deep
er interest in the Presidential contest
has been manifested here, which TACT,
indicates that contributions to the
fund will be sent in more rapidly
and that the vote on election day
will be large and representative.
Every Democrat in Alexandria can
afford to give at least dollar The
welfare Of the nation depends upon
politics and upon political activity
and if voters generally do not take
an active interest in such matters
they will naturally turn over their
government to cliques and combines.
The only possible way to insure an
administration for and by the peo-
ple is for the rank and file to go to
work and insist upon exercising au-
thority. In all the history OF our
country there has been no time SO pro
pitious for an assertion Of pcpul&r
rights as the present, and those cit
liens who fail to respond to the
call and persist in holding themselves
aloof from the great political con-
flict now in progress are simply
playing into the hands OF professional
politicians and are doing ali they can
to give comfort and encouragement
to bosses and machines
The Wilson and Marshall campaign
is financed by the people, through
small individual contributions, so that
when victory is won it will rest, not
upon favors from iarge interests
but upon the interest and enthu-
siasm of the plain people. For ing
realization of such happy result
every Alexandria Democrat should DC
willing to give little time, a little
labor. and little money. II Eoa
have not already made contributions
send them to j. K. N. Morton preSi-
dent of the club. or J. 3. Fitzgerald,
treasurer.

The Taft managers are understood
to have information that things are
running heavily in the same direction
ca far as the negro vote is concern
cd Roosevelt's declaration that he
did not care for the aid of the ne
eroes in the South, but that ne want
ed their support in the North, does
not from all accounts appear to nave
alienated any great percentage OF
blacks, and what aggravates the sit
uation for the Republicans is that
thew have not been able in the pres
ent contest to work successfully the
old Brownsville racket.
There is large population In the
CITY of Philadelphia. 1t is reported
that the leaders of these people are
nearly all training with the Ball
Moose party, and the situation out in
the Pittsburg end of Pennsylvania
where the negroes are numerous, is
practically the same.
AS soon as President Taft returns
to the White House from Beverly, 1t
is proposed to have a delegation Of
prominent negroes call upon him there
and have their spokesma ndellWeri
an address in which the Republican
candidate will be assured that the ne
groes believe it vii lbe better for tlelr
interests and country to have reg
ular Republican party elect its cam
didates next month. This movement
is being backed chiefly by Washing
ton negroes who made it a point
to stand in with the administration,

Battle in Pcnitentiary.

A battle ragged early last night IN
the State penitentiary at Ra"hhs,
Wyo. Locked inside the walls with
hundreds of mutinous prisoners, a
few guards fought desperately TO re-
store order and prevent wholesale
jail delivery.
Camped outside the walls was a
force of citizens heavily armed, ready
to drive back the cpnvicts if they
murdered the remaining guards and
made rush through the gates.Shouts
and occasional shots told of deSrer-
ate fighting within the walls, and it
was rumored that several guards
and convicts were killed.
Another battle was in progress al
the same time i'll the hills south OF
Rawlins, between a posse of citizens
and from 20 to 40 escaped prisoners
Two men were killed OF the streets
of Rawiins, one was desperately woun-
ded, and two convicts were recap
tured, following the escape from III
to so prisoners this afternoon.
The town is in a panic. Frantic
kilograms were sent to Gov. Ca
rev, now at Sheridan, imp!orirG linn
to send state troops to protect citl-
zens. Townspeople barricaded them
selves in their homes tonight, or hea-
Willy armed, patrolled the streets.
