Mrs S., X Davis. the good-iooking
young woman, who touched of the forty
nine-minute demonstration four years
ago. suddenly appeared In the topmost
west gallery with a red Roosevelt PEN
nant pinned to- her right shoulder. She
wore suit OF black and white checks
and a broad-brimmed sailor hat She ap-
pealed to the delegates to raise for Roose-
Welt. She begged and pleaded, flashed her
most alluring smiles.
No use, the delegates sat cold. stampede
proof. They had been selected for the
express purpose of turning of Roosevelt
enthusiasm. Their hides were too tough
to pierce.

Suddenly sunshine literally leaped
through the windows and flooded the hall.
The T r. people hailed 1t as a good
omen and put on more steam. Mrs.
Davis caught up a big American flag.

and Topped 1t up and down.

policemen to the gallery to make Mrs.

CBy the Sun News service.)

Chicago, May s-There was a Whit Of
ozone In the atmosphere OF the Republi-
can national convention when the Coli
scum filled this morning. Excitement over
the approachilgg hour of balloting had
something to do with the keener tang.
There was preliminary interest also, in
the report of the peace committee-Crane,
Butler, johnson, Borah and Smoot.
An Episcopalian. Bishop William Nc
Dowell. offered the prayer.
Chairman Harding announced that the
special peace committee was ready to re-
port. Reed. Smoot, of Utah. came to the
front and read the report. 1t was dis
appointing for actual. definite results ac-
complished. but 1t left the door open to
more harmony work. 1t mentioned The
odore Roosevelt kindly, though calmly,
as the man the Progressive conferes in
sisted on. There followed the first Roose-
welt demonstration, a respectable noise.
but 1t was scattered and spasmodic.
Smoot and his committee were empow-
cred to continue negotiations, but the
Republican board of strategy, Murray
Crane and Company, were not going to
let G. o. p. Bull Moose pow-wows in
tertupt the real business of clearing the
way for balloting. Chairman Harding,
after brushing aside some of Kentucky 4
family troubles, ordered the roll call OF
States for nominations for President.
Hughes Is Nominated.
Gov. Whitman had a manuscript speech
nominating Justice Hughes, but he didn't
stick to it. Frequently he departed far
from the preserved oratory and SCARED
upon wings extemporaneously designed.
Whitman delayed craftily the mention
of Hughes name until toward the close
OF his speech, and when he flung 1t oui
as dramatically as he could, the natural
and expected demonstration started.
The marching and shrieking and hand
clapping and whoo-ooo-ping and whoop-
ing and whistling lasted just twenty-one
minutes, but 1t was not impressive at any
time.
As Whitman sat down. Nicholas Muir
ray Butler got up. caught Harding's eye
and hastened to the platform. He, too
avoided direct mention of the name OF
his candidate, Elihu Root. of New York
and the usual echo broke when he did
mention 1t.
There seemed to be more delegates on
their feet when the demonstration began
for Root than there had been upstand-
ing delegates for Hughes.
DR.. Butler. dressed like a dark horse
himself. bowed himself from the plat
form. The two most important nominat-
ing speeches of the convention were said
and done with. For Hughes and Root
were left the ballot, the count of the
vote
Gov. Frank B. Willis went to the plat
form to nominate Burton.
Ohio this time led the march of stand
ards, but the standards were pathetically
few. Only a few delegates from a few
States got into the procession and took
up the chant. I'VE want Burton"

Chicago, June "a fraternal demon
stration by the delegates OF Maine and

tion after Rabbi Joseph Stolz opened the

This diversion being ended, William
Draper Lewis, dean of the University of
Pennsylvania Law School, started to
read the platform offered by the resolu-
tions committee of which he is chair
man. By request OF Indiana, words were
added to the preparedness plank demand
ing protection for Americans in Mexico.
The conference committee that had
been meeting the Republican committee
came ipto the auditorium. The platform
was forgotten when George w. Perkins
got up to read both the Republican and
Progressive reports. Few Of the dele

When he read the Republican report
there were some Kisses for each of the

sentence with a stab of the forefnger.
When he told the expectant Progress
sives that the Republicans had informed
their convention that no union candidate

last Wednesday evening and the fol-

Campo in Baca county where he adj
dressed the old soldiers at their re-
union. He spent two days meeting
the people Of all sections of our
south country and was warmly greet

political parties. On Saturday he
visited Bent county and delivered ad-
dresses at McClave, Hasty and Las
Animas. On Sunday he spoke at
Wiley at 2:3O in the afternoon and at
the high school auditorium in Lamar
at 4:3O. Owing to a mix-up in the
announcements many Of the Lamar
people thought the meeting was to be
at night and owing to this and the
rainy weather in the afternoon the
crowd in Lamar was not as large as
expected.
The Governor made a splendid i'm
preston everywhere that he spoke as
the people admire his outspoken and
fearless stand on all questions that
have come before him and the fact
that he makes no attempt to dodge
responsibility for any Of his acts. In
two years his administration has
brought the state from condition
bordering on anarchy and restored it
to law and order where every law is
enforced and respected. The people
of the state realize this fact and re

WHOLESALE RAID
Gang of Horse Thieves Steal Thirty
Horses from Henkins Ranch OH
Mud Greek

On last Thursday Jim Dodge ran on
to an outfit of four men in the brakes
on the Cimarron southwest of Lamar
in Las Animas county with thirty
head of horses, which he thought he
recognized as belonging to f. G.
Henkins and they carried the Henkins
brand Mr.. Dodge came to Lamar as
soon as he could after wards and
found Mr.. Henkins. rhs latter in
vestigated at once and discovered that
thirty of his horses including the
heavy work horses, which ne had
been working the past winter on his
dam, were gone. Sheriff Downing, +.
G. Henkins, Bud Tanner and Jim
Dodge started at once ON the trail Of
the thieves and hope to overtake them
before they can succeed in getting the
horses entirely out Of the country.
An investigation at this end dis
closed the fact that a certain man,
who has been living on claim not
very far from the Henkins ranch on
Mud creek and answers well to the
description Of one Of the men seen by
Mr.. Dodge, is missing. Also his two

has also a Mexican of the same neigh
borhood. Mr.. Dodge reported one of
the men as looking much like a Mexi-

elusive that this is the bunch that
took the horses. They evidently are
driving them towards the Mexican
border where the numerous bands
that works in harmony and If they
once get them across the border it
will be impossible to get any further
trace of them. This is by far the
largest attempt at horse stealing ever
made in this section and shows that
the gang making it is well organized
and have proceeded carefully with
their plans. They picked time when
Mr. Henkins was away from his ranch
and they knew he would be gone sew
eral days. Thus they gained a start
of four days on the officers and would
have gained much more but for their
accidental discovery by Jim Dodge.
The whole raid bears evidence of be-
ing skillfully planned and executed.
and the only hope of catching them
lies in the speed Of the auto.
The. bunch of horses had been run
ming in one of the large pastures on
the Henkins ranch and were only
seen by the boys left in charge oc-
casionally when they came for water.
Since the heavy rains they have not
been coming up for water and for this
reason had not been missed at the
ranch although they had been gone
four days.
