HUGHES ENDORSED
BY PR0CREsS|vEs
NATIONAL COMMITTEE VOTES 80
TO ON o. K. FOR REPuRu.
CAN CANDIDATE.
COLONEL SENDS STATEMENT
In Declining Theodore Roosevelt De.
ciares For Observation-Disclosures
Was Led BY Perkins of New York.

Chicago.-The Progressive National
Committee voted to indorse Charles
e: Hughes for President The vote
was 30 to 6, with nine declining to
vote on the ground that the commit
tee was exceeding it's power in taking
such action.
BY a vote of 81 to Is the committee
went on record as opposed to putting
a third ticket in the field. The COM
m1ttee voted down a motion to sub.
stitute the name of Victor Murdoch,
OF Kansas, to fill the vacancy caused
by the declination of Theodore Roose-
welt to head the Progressive ticket.
The fight for the Hughes indorse-
ment was led by George w. Perkins
of New York; James r. Garfield of
Ohio, and Chester H. Rowen of Cali
fOrnia.
The radical element in the commit
tee, represented by Matthew Hale of
Massachusetts,, cambridge Colby of
New York, Henry F. Cochems of Wis
consin, John NJ. Parker of Louisiana,
vigorously protested against the in
dOrsement of any candidate for PreSi-
dent and fought the majority at every
step of the proceedings. The minor
ity's first move was to insist on an
open session of the committee and it
won this point after a number of COM
mitteemen led by John M. Parker,
bolted the meeting.
After Oscar King Davis, secretary
Of the committee, had read letter
from Colonel Roosevelt finally de-
Ginning the Progressive nomination
for President and urging that Mr..
Hughes be supported by members of
the Progressive party in order to de-
feat President Wilson, the committee
voted to accept Colonel Roosevelt's
declination and took a recess for
luncheon.
The following states voted for the
Endorsement of Hughes on the roll
call:
Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas, Cali
fornia, Colorado, Connecticut, Dis
trict Of Columbia, Georgia, Illinois,
Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Louisiana.
Maine, Maryland, Michigan, Mime
sofa, Nebraska, Nevada, New Hamp-
SHIRE, New Jersey, New York, North
Dakota, Ohio, Oregon, Pennsylvania,
South Dakota, Texas, Vermont, V1r-
ginia, Wyoming and Hawaii
After indorsing Mr.. Hughes the
committee, on motion of Dean w. D.
Lewis of Pennsylvania, unanimously
decided that the action should not be
binding on any Individual.

city authorities, upon taking posses.
sion, to confiscate the church bells as
spoils of war for the purpose of mold
ing them into cannon. That was rec
ognized as one of their rights as cap
tors. It was to prevent this seizure
that the executive council ordered the
removal of the state house bell and
the bells Of Christ church and of
nine other churches to Allentown by
way of Bethlehem. I don't know why
Allentown was selected unless it be
that it was far enough away to keep,
the bells safe from the British.
Had Small Escort.
John Jacob Mickey, a soldier Of the
Continental army, was one of those
detailed for the removal Of the bells.
To him the state house bell was in
trusted. John Jacob Mickey was the
son of Johann Jacob Mueckn (the Ger
man version Of the name), and ar
rived in Philadelphia on the sailing
vessel Hope" in the early part OF
1888. On August 27, 1888, he took the
oath of allegiance to his adopted
country. He was a farmer at White
hall. Lehigh county, when the War of
the Revolution broke out.
At Bethlehem Mickley's wagon
broke down and the state house bell
was transferred to the wagon Of ia
cob Lester, upon which it was hauled
the remaining four miles. In the rec
ords of the Moravian church at Beth
lehem is the following entry, under
date of September %, lit: "The
bells from Philadelphia brought in
wagons, the wagon Of the state house
bell broke down here, so it had to
be unloaded, the other bells went on"
Buried Under Church Floor.
The state house bell and the chimes
Of Christ church were buried beneath
the floor Of Zion Reformed church,
Allentown. This church was built in
1852 Of logs, rebuilt in stone in ITO,
and again rebuilt later. The Rev. Abra-
ham Blummer was pastor of the
church at the time and assisted in
the work of burying the bells. A tab
let commemorating the event has been
placed upon the church front and also
a stained glass window with like pur-
pose in the church.
After the evacuation of Philadelphia
by the British, the bells we're brought
back and put in their respective
places in the latter part of the year
1778.

They are telling a story about Rep
resentative Gardner and his fervent
preparedness campaign.
It seems that a begging tramp ap-
preached a group of congressman, and
one of them pointed out Mr.. Gardner
and said:

gentleman there is very charitable,
and if you tackle him you'll be apt
to make a haul"

kily. and he hurried to Mr.. Gardner,

And fired the shot heard round the

The farmers of Lexington carried
the cornet or standard of the Three
County Troop. This banner was de-
vfsed in the counties Of Essex, Suffolk
and Middlesex, Massachusetts,, in 1859.
The Office Of color bearer of this troop
was a sort Of Inheritance in the Page
family. The standard was carried in
King Philips war in 1875. When the
Minute Men were organized Nathaniel
Page III of Bedford took the old flag
for use at drill. At the midnight alarm
Captain Page snatched up the stand

the history of the banner is related.
The ground is maroon or crimson

an outstretched arm, in the hand OF
which is an uplifted sword. This rep
resentation is the color Of silver, as
are three circular figures that are
probably intended to represent can
non balls. Upon gold colored scroll
are the words ''Vince aut Moriture"
Conquer or Die). The flag is about
two feet by one foot six inches. The
original fringe appears to have been
taken by a Bedford girl to trim dress
for a military ball. That was, OF
course, before the standard was borne
by the embatt1ed farmers.

SAVED BELL
FROM BRITISH
PatrioticP hiladelphians
Carried 1t to Allen
town, Where 1t
Was Buried

n 10 INCIDENT of Revolutionary
nj times finds a more vivid and
dramatic contrast in this day
than the first trip of the Lib
erty Bell from Philadelphia, writes
John A. Sheath, ex-state treasurer of
Pennsylvania, in the Philadelphia
Press. That trip was to Allentown a
year and two months after it became
the Liberty Bell, at the time when
Howe's army, victorious over the Con-
tinental forces at the battle Of the
Brandywine. was advancing for the
capture Of the city.
When the bell left for the San
Francisco exposition last year it de-
whole undivided city. It was escort
ed to the train by the First city
troop and by the great assemblage
gathered for the Fourth of July exer-
cises on independence square. It
passed through streets thronged with
generating people. On the train it
was under the escort of large body
delegated by the constituted munich
pal authorities. It's passage across
the continent was triumphal prog
ress. A hundred cities along the
route poured out their citizens to do
it reverence as it passed and it was
received at the other rim of the con-
tinent in reverential awe by a count
less multitude.
Contrast With First Trip.
That is how the Bell travels today.
It was very different in September,
lit. On that first trip to Allentown
it went, not in daylight, but in the
dead of night. Not with the music of
bands and escorted in honor by null
titudes, but in silence and under the
guard of only one man. It went not
in special train but in creaking
old farm wagon loaded with manure,
the better to conceal it.
For at that time there were many
Tories in Philadelphia. These includ-
ed families then counted among the
foremost citizens. When the city was
evacuated by the Continentals, these
Tories came out of the obscurity in
which they had been prudently lying
and began preparing a welcome for
Howe and his army. The following
winter was time of rare festivity
for the British officers.
The British were expected by the
