BATTLE DOWN TO
 TEDDY OR HUGHES
(. 0. p. Leaders Privately Admit
 This Will Be the Situation

Chicago, June 2-In the opinion a decided influence in the republican national convention next week, he situation, as affecting candidates, has practically narrowed down to Roose welt and Hughes. Neither is wanted by the chieftains of the republican Old Guard who until a few days ago be- lieved that they would hold the con- vention in the hollow of their hands, and who are doing all the talking for their party here at present.
 They oppose Colonel Roosevelt in 1916 with all the vengeful spirit that marked their opposition to him in 1912, on the ground that he wrecked their party and is now enrolled with the third party which played havoc with their hopes of victory four years ago. They object to Justice Hughes because bitter experience has taught a few of them that even victory, should it perch on the republican banners this fall, would be barren in patron age sense should he be tenant of the White House for four years to come.
 The Old Guard leaders are still talk ing with well simulated assurance of
 putting FtOOt over, while the press agents and managers of various favor ite sons are discussing the prospects of their candidates in an equally hopeful vein. But only a handful of delegates are here and all indications point to a united clamor for a winning candi- date when they arrive. Of all the candidates so far mentioned, only Hughes CT Roosevelt, in the estimation of republicans who view the situation in the cold light of reason, without personal bias or rancor, fits that de- scriptiOn.

c. O. P. Steam Roller Begins to Move and Hughes Delegates Are Crushed Out of Chicago Convention.

Chicago, June Reconsideration of claims of contesting delegates to the national convention was resumed to- day by the republican national com mittee, which opened it's deliberations here yesterday with a session lasting more than nine hours.
 The result of yesterdays work was decision in the cases of 16 delegates, 3 from Georgia and from Alabama.
 The Henry s. Jackson delegation from Georgia were awarded seats and the seven protests in Alabama were settled by the seating of six regular delegates at large and protesting delegate from the ninth congressional district.
 The committee also voted to place the delegates from Porto Rico, Ha- waii and the Philippines on the tenn pOrary roll with the recommendation that they be given votes
 The Louisiana contest, involving 12 delegates, was the first taken up to- day. It was to be followed by the contest in Mississippi, Missouri and North Carolina, in the order named.
 The fight in the Louisiana delega- ton today is between the so-called lilly whites'' and the "black and tans" as has been the case at many former committee meetings preceding nation- al conventions The cOntesting dele- gations were chosen at separate meet ings at a hotel in New Orleans, where colored people were not allowed en- trance. The delegation was cOnse- quently, composed exclusively of whites. The other delegation is conl- posed of an equal number of whites and cOlOred people. Neither side is committed to any candidate.

DELIBERATELY BURN
 AN AMERICAN FLAG
Refreshments Served Following
 Act Of BOuCk Whites 'ChurCh"

New York, June 2-An American flag was deliberately burned last night as part of the exercises connected with a general meeting of the Church of the Social Revolution held on the eve of the trial of it's leader, Bouck White, which will begin today in Special ses- siOns. The ceremony was held in the backyard of the house the organiza- ton maintains at 125 West Twenty third street.
 While the flag was being burned hisses and catcalls resounded, and mis- siles were thrown from the rear win dOws of neighboring houses, and even some of those at the meeting joined in the hissing Immediately after the ceremony every one went upstairs and closed the celebration with cake and lemonade.
 The flag burning in the back yard followed a long meeting in the rooms of the organization. The question of flags was raised by the prospectice trial of White as the result of the publication of a cartoon by him which the complainant considers a descra- ton of the Stars and Stripes. The charge is that he violated the penal law by using the United States flag for advertising purposes.
 Apparently no one present knew what was coming except those who were to take part in it. White had alluded to the coming ceremony as "possibly dangerous" and interest ing and had spoken of "our friend, MT. Henkel an artist from out Ja- maica way as one who had proved his courage touchingly" by volun- teering for a part in the coming ex- ercises that might have serious re- suits: saying that as he was only about six weeks away from the brea|k line and had a wife and two children to support, he did not see how any thing that might happen to him could be regarded as serious.

STEALTH VS.. DESTRUCTION.
AS stealing goods merely transfers
them from rightfuI to wrongful own
ers, so they still benefit somebody
while destroying goods prevents
them from benefting anybody, the
latter is consequently very much
worse even than the former. Hence,
destruction, waste, extravaganza is
even more criminal than theft or rob-
berry.
Therefore, we labOrers, who so Bit
terly denoUnce mOnopolists as rob
bers," should surely not do even
worse than they by being destructive,
wasteful, extTavagant ourselves. For,
if we waste we shall surely thereby
contribute to our own poverty.
How many of us use injurious in
tOxicants, tobacco, dope, etc., that
wreck us mentally, morally and
physically, while we UnreasOnably
blame others for all our troubles.
If we commend labor for creating
wealth, surely we should commend
economy for preserving it.
