 Part of New Yor5's delegation remained seated, and only half dozen Pennsyl- vanisns rose. The band could barely be Leard above the din.
 A G. o. P. elephant on rollers was car fied down the aisles to the platform. ThA Oregon men picked up their standard and began a march. The Hughes smen from New York joined in. Vermont dele. gates joined the procession. The march. CTS shouted we want Hughes" and "W, want Charlie"

tor Fall took the platform to nominate Colonel Roosevelt.
 Senator Fall opened by saying that the convention had adopted platform than can be supported by all loyal Americans, and through this action any loyal American may be nominated here.
 The first applause when Senator Fall referred to Colonel Roosevelt without mentioning his name as "colossal figure of American manhood" and "one great American"
 It seemed as if Senator Falls refer ences to Colonel Roosevelt brought generally more aplause from the gal leries than from the floor.
 There were cries of Hughes" and the convention was in an uproar. A wave of misses swept over the hall. Senator Harding threatened to clear the galleries.
 Fall told the convention that at any rate the candidate for whom he spoke would be heard by all the people of the United States"
 The noise subsided and then in a few words Senator Fall concluded his speech at sos o'clock by mentioning the name Theodore Roosevelt" The racket be- gan. It appeared to be largely a gallery demonstration, the great body of the delegates remaining seated

GALLERY DEMONSTRATION

Soon from the galleries came the steady beat of We want Teddy; we want Teddy Flags waved from the up per balconies, and hundreds of women and men were on their feet, clapping handkerchiefs, banners and flags. A count at 5:13 made by several persons showed 75 delegates on their feet as demonstrators, but many others stood on the chairs to watch the show.
 The sun came out while the cheering was going on and as it flooded the Coli scum the crowd cheered that.
 A woman in the east balcony tore loose a large flag and swung it overhead. Two officers strove to stop her. There was a gentle struggle while the eyes of the whole convention were focused on the by play. Suddenly the big flag slipped from her hands and fell to the floor of the hall. The woman placed her hand to the brim of her big hat and bowed low to the retreating officers.
 The band swung into the Star-Spangled Banner and the crowd cheered that until the windows rattled. Then 1t played America and mighty chorus joined
 Many of the delegates who had risen to get a better view of the show finally sat down and soon all but half dozen roofing delegates were seated and quiet except in the galleries.
 At 5:47 Chairman Harding made him self heard

BAND DROWNED OUT

While the Indiana and Kentucky dele gations still were parading, the galleries joined in and drowned out the band The republican leaders took opportunity to confer and find out what the progress sive convention was doing. There were constant inquiries to know if Colonel Roosevelt had been nominated there.
 Inquiries also were made as to whether any state had agreed to yield to New Mexico, so that Senator Fall might be recognized to make the Roosevelt nomi- nation. So far as the chairman could ascertain, no state had yielded.
 At All, when the demonstration had gone on for 3o minutes, Chairman Hard
 ing began to pound for order.
 It was just g minutes before order had been sufficiently restored for the roll to go on.
 While the floor still was in confusion Chairman Harding ordered the roll call to go on and former Representative M E. Kendall took the platform to noml- nate Senator A. B. Cummins
 It was arranged that Senator Wads- worth of New York was to be recog- nized to present resolution amending the rule governing the seconding speeches. It limited seconding speeches ito two of five minutes each. Where there are more than two, but two min utes shall be allowed to each. The Roosevelt people had sent to the chair a list of eight speakers to make sec onding speeches.
 Kendall departed from the text, de- voting his talk to plea for harmony with the progressives and reciting why the Iowa delegation offered Sen ator Cummins as the man best equipped for that work.
 Montana got into the parade, too, and the recruits were welcomed with cheers. The Alaska and Porto Rican delegates also joined the tramping line. The .demonstra ton was about like all the others. The marchers paraded about the aisles shouting themselves hoarse, while the galleries roared and whistled.

gathered for bounteous picnic din
ner in Lithia park. They came from
Central FONT, Medford, Talent and

in visiting back and forth among the
acquaintances from the various sec

no list of the names of those pres
ent is available for publication.

Medford City Water
Supply Endangered

Medford's entire water system has
been jeopardized by the passage of
the Oregon G. California land grant
bill by congress, according to City
Attorney McCabe. Some eight years
ago the city took possession of a
tract of land near Little Butte and
there located the city intake. For
NAL application was never made for
the land and it is now being classi-
fled under the act. After classifica-
tion II may be filed on the same as
any other land under the grant, and
a loss of s1,000,000 may be entailed
by the city unless a special act of
congress can be secured to give title
to the land about the intake.
Immediately after the passage of
the act, City Attorney McCabe wrote
to the secretary of the interior in re-
gard to the land. The communica-
tion was referred to Louis L. Sharp
of Portland, chief of the field di-
vision in the survey of the grant
lands. His reply to Mr.. McCabe in
part said
1T may be that in order to get
title to the land on which the intake
is situated it will be necessary to
secure the passing of a special act
of congress. have no doubt, how
ever, that such action by congress
can be had with little difficulty"
Action must be taken by the city
during the next session, according to
City Attorney McCabe, and to secure
this action it will probably be neces-
sary for Mr.. McCabe to appear be-
fore congress.

Secretary Mather
On Crater Lake

The following item is clipped from
the Portland Evening Telegram of
the I'd, and will be of particular
interest to Ashland people on ac-
count of the mention of Crater Lake
and Mr.. Mathers visit to Ashland
last Friday, when he went through
Lithia park and On up the canyon
as far as Longs cabin:
Speaking to a score of Portland
men at the Chamber of Commerce
at noon today Stephen T. Mather,
superintendent of national parks,
suggested Portland, Ashland, Med
ford and Klamath Falls raise 500,-
600 for the development of Crater
Lake, and that the railroads then
sell tickets including automobile
rides to the park.
Shall we leave Crater Lake to
Oregon or shall we ask Californians
to develop it?" he said He said that
the proposed Mount Hood park
would "belittle the idea of a national
park" as existing parks have not
been developed. He told his hearers
to support the Parkhurst hotel prof.
ect at Crater Lake. Tacoma and Sc
attic have raised 100000 for the
development of Rainier National
park, and a park service company is
spending 100000 in Yosemite.
Mr.. Mather is here on his way to
Glacier National park
His position in Secretary Lanes
department in reality is that of su-
perintendent of national parks, and
a visit to the parks of the Pacific
Coast is the purpose of his present
tour.
81 want to stir up a new interest
in Crater Lake and show you people
what It means to your city to have
such an attraction as Crater Lake
within your state" said Mr.. Mather
today "A Portland man has the
hotel there and he should have the
backing and support of Portland"
Another thing in which Mr.. Math-
er is vitally interested is the devel-
opment of the park-to-park highway
system! in other words, a tying to-
gether of the great scenic features
of the west by permanent roads, so
that the tourist of America will be-
encouraged to spend his vacation
season in riding from one national
park to another, instead of swarming
to Europe every year-and leaving
an aggregate of several millions Of
dollars at the transatlantic resorts.
ITO my mind, the big scenic
things of the world are, first, the
Grand Canyon of the Colorado. then
Crater Lake and then the Matter
horn" said Robert Sterling Yard,
another interior department man and
a member of the Mather party. "I
have heard that said, and now after
seeing Crater Lake myself agree
with it,"
q. o. Mccormick, vice-president of
he Southern Pacific, accompanied
he party to Crater Lake, but re-
urned to San Francisco from Ash
and. John NJ. Scott, general pas
'enger agent, met the party when it
'ame out from the lake and came
With it on Mr.. McCormick's car Sun
