Roosevelt .t
A. II Bigelow OF Omaha was chairman
OF the convention and the principal ad-
dress was delivered by Judge Albert n.
Nortoni OF St Louis.
Anson H. Bigelow. temporary chairman,
in his address centered his criticism on
the republican leaders and attacked
briefly the democratic administration.
Mr.. Bigelow said in part
"Gentlemen of the convention: I count
it a privilege, gentlemen, to conduct the
preliminary deliberations OF this first Ne
braska state convention of tn progressive
party since its Organization. Never be-
fore has America seen great political
party leap full grown Dnd fall armed,
Minerva like. from out tho intelligence of
its creator-the American electorate,
Il am confident that the more than
10000 Nebraskans who assisted in raising
that banner two years ago, will be found
following It next Novem5e., fighting un-
der The same leaders, lCya! to the same
principles and enlisted not merely for
the skirmish OF 1912 but for the war,
THE primaries of August IS next will
show beyond shadow of doubt That
enough progressives have iTreYocably left
the republican party To render absolutely
futile any further attempts by progres-
sves TO control it, and republican standard
bearers will be, for all important places,
tried and true etandpatters. The cnly
Howell that will Then be n evidence viii
be howls of glee over the restoration Of
the Taftltes to power.
Blinded by a wornout theory that they
are divinely appointed to protect the
states from undue enroachments by the
national government, the democratic
party fails to see that we are living in
the twentieth century.
we invite progressive thinkers OF all
parties, of ell creeds OF all classes 70
join us in this effort to purify party poll
tics to make party responsive to the Will
/ of its membership. to overthrow bossism
and machine political methods, make pro-
/ gressive principles a living truth in gov
ernmental action.

Illness of several weeks.
Mrs. Rosewater came to Omaha
bride of u years, in 1864. Her young
husband Edward Rosewater, whose name
was afterwards to be known throughout
the United states, was a telegraph oper-
ator. Her advent here was by stage
across Iowa in a bleak November, and
she spent her first evening at a grand
Thanksgiving day ball at the old Herndon
house.
As the wife of Edward Rosewater,
founder Of The Bee, her abilities and
worth were always OF great assistance to
him. Though by no means aVerse to em-
pIoying her time and strength for public
purposes, at the same time, Mrs Rese-
water was inclined by nature to the old
fashioned ideal of the home and the
wife and mother, embodying its kindly
and cherished spirit. While always busy
in her own modest charity work and in
social activities, she was not inclined to
seek special prominence. She was, how
ever, at one time president of the Needle
work guile.
Seriously Injured by Fall.
Mrs Rosewater was born in Cleveland,
O., in October, 1S4S. and received her
education in the public schools of her
home city. Her maiden name was Leah
Colman, her father being a merchant in
Cleveland. many years dead. Her mother
lived to the age Of S6 years. Five sur
viving sisters still reside in Cleveland.
For ninteen years Mr.. and Mrs. Edward
Rosewater lived in a house which stood at
Seventeenth and Farnam streets, the site
of The Bee building. The house was
then moved to a site opposite where
the library now stands and they lived
there for a short time while another home
on the present site of the Brandets
Theater building was in process of con-
struction In the new home they lived
till Mr.. Rosewater's death. August 30,
1906 Their children were born while they
lived in the old home at Seventeenth and

LINCOLN, July 2S.- Especial Tel
egram.) AT the state republican
convention here today past differ
ences were buried and disagree
ments smoothed over by the united
desire of the delegates to work out
a platform upon which the repub-
lican candidates can go before the
people with certainty of success.
State Chairman Epperson and Cur
rie We'd with each other in working
for the common interest, and the
convention as a whole throbbed with
the purpose of accomplishing some
thing upon which the united repub-
licanism of the state can stand and
fight in the coming elections.
No states were made or broken,
and the attempts of trouble makers
to center the eyes Of the curious
upon themselves for few minutes
were put down by the committee as
a whole.
Sounds the Keynote.
Chairman King. of the convention
in his opening speech indicted the
national democratic administration
and that of the state as we'll. He
charged the democrats with a weak,
vacillating policy abroad and an eco
nomic blunder at home. He pointed
to the excessive extravaganza of the
democrats in the state government,
and asserted that the democratic rul-
ers we're the well known supporters
of the trusts and corporations which
were visiting their displeasure on
the republicans because the repub-
licaps had refused to do their bid
ding. Applause came often and fer
vently as the chairman continued his
speech.
When the convention had listened
to speeches from four gubernatorial
candidates the committee on resolu-
tions reported, and the work of the
day began. 1t was here that the con-
vention got into a parliamentary
tangle which arose over bubble.
Some fervid oratory was listened to,
but the matter was soon Strengthened
out, and the work of the convention
was happily concluded.

VIENNA, July 2S.-Official noti-
fication OF the declaration of war
was sent to Servia today by the
Austro-Hungarian government.
The Imperial Austro-Hungarian
Foreign office declared today that
even should Servia now comply with
the demands contained in the Aus
trian note, the government of the
dual monarchy would not be salts
fled. Officials of the ministry
stated that servia's reply had made
1t impossible for Austria-Hungary to
adhere to its former standpoint, and
compliance by Servia with the de-
mands made on 1t could no longer
influence the course of action of the
Austro- Hungarian empire.
The declaration of war was gazetted
here late this afternoon. The text is as
follows:
The royal government OF Servia not
having replied in a satisfactory manner
to the note rem.tted to 1t by the Austro-
Hungarian minister in Belgrade on July

ment finds itself compelled 10 proceed
