Captain John NJ. Parker, Of louisiana,

this afternoon for vice-president. the
running mate OF Theodore Roosevelt

rules. He was the only candidate,
Governor Hiram Johnson, of Cali
fornia, who was the progressive vice.
presidential candidate In 1912, having
declined the nomination.
Johnson. In withdrawing from the
vice-presidential race, and seconding
Parker's nomination. said:
I'm this peculiar condition of af-
fairs. It is appropriate that south
ern leader be recognized. II Roose-
welt is ultimately to be candidate,
his running mate should come from
the south. It is right that the pion-
eers Of this great movement should be
recognized And now, In the last
hours Of this convention. let me talk
to you briefly. We have fought the
good fight. We fought not in vain.
For four years we have stood should
er to shoulder and stood for the rights
of humanity. Our task has been one
OF real accomplishment, Whether
this hght Is to go on. and II Is going
on on the western sphere. I tell you
we can always hold mp our heads,
worthy soldiers of the common good.
