INDIANA To Send Big
Fairbanks DELEGATION
BUSINESS MEN ORGANIZING IN
ALMOST EVERY STATE FOR
ROOSEVELT.

Chicago, May 30.-Completion of
an organization of business men in
every State in the Union pledged to
use their influence to induce dele
gates to the Republican National
Convention to vote for Theodore
Roosevelt as the party's nominee for
President, was announced today by
Herbert l.. Satterlee. acting manager
of the Chicago Roosevelt headquart-
ers. ]. Ogden Armour is head of the
Roosevelt Business Mems Organiza-
ton in Illinois. The organization of
the entire country by States was be-
gun in New York eight days ago and
is a purely volunteer movement, Mr..
Satterlee explained.
1t is expected the business men
will render effective aid in Illinois,
Indiana, Ohio, Iowa, Wisconsin and
other States which have "favorite
son" candidates for President in in
fluencing delegates to support Roose-
welt as a second choice in the conven-
ton.
Managers of the Hughes, Roose-
welt. Fairbanks, Weeks and Root
campaigns have turned their atten-
ton TO the contests over delegates
which will be heard by the Republic
can National Committee beginning
June /. There are forty contests in
volving the seats of sixty-two dele
gates.
The Marion Club, of Indianapolis,
one of Indiana's leading Republican
organizations. will come to Chicago
on a special train next Monday to
boom Fairbanks for President. There
will be 1000 members in the party.
according to Ralph A. Lemcke and
Charles w. Jewett. who were here
today arranging for accommodations
for the club. The organization was
formed in 1888 to boom Benjamin
Harrison for President at the Re-
publican National Convention held
in Chicago, and have not attended a

extension of the road from its Dako-
Ia and Minnesota homestead to the
Pacific ocean. He was confronted by
three great competitors to the south,
each of which had received big bonus
es as government aid, whereas the
Manitoba" or the Great Northern,
as it came to be known, did not have
a dollar of government subsidy or an
acre of grant to forward its progress
from the Minnesota boundary to the
sea.
In this light. Hills plan was widely
deemed pure folly, but he pressed 1t
to conclusion by building and pop
ulating as he went. For several years
he laid rails westward at the rate of
mile a day, and at cost of $780,
600 a mile, and as he went he left
trail of embryonic farms by the rail-
side.
With the line to Puget Sound once
laid, he turned empire builder. He
introduced the livestock industry in
to vast areas of bunch-grass plains,
and developed them by importing
blooded stock; he sent demonstration
trains through the country with men
who showed the people how to raise
more wheat to the acre; he made an
outlet for the grain by establishing a
cheap rate by rail and steamship to
Buffalo where he built great eleva-
tors; in fact for upwards of 20 years
he left nothing in his power undone
to develop the country where he had
staked out his claim as the great
common carrier.
But at the Pacific tide-water he
was not satisfied. for he saw in the
Orient still further opportunities. He
organized feet of Pacific steamships
for the commercial invasion of Japan
and China. Japan at the time wanted
steel rails, but proposed getting them
from England. as the rates were less.
It is related that when JohnW. Gates,
the steel magnate of Chicago, came to
Hill with the proposition Of getting
American rails to Japan, the latter
replied:
81 will make you rate OF SIS ton
from Chicago or Pittsburg to Yoko-
hama. II that is too much, will
carry 1t for the axle grease used on
the locomotives and freight cars; and
II you can't stand that, will carry
your freight for nothing"
At the SIS rate named. the Ameri-
can manufacturer was enabled to Sc
cure the japanese contract.
The same tactics were adopted in

The officer, whoever he was, had not
reported the incident tonight, and
the knife had not been recovered.
Another incident was the arrest in
the lobby of the Hotel Mueh1bach of
a man who said his name was Ed
ward Mcdaniel and his home at
Tulsa, Okla. He declared he had
business with Col Roosevelt and tried
to force his way past the police. The
police still were holding the man to-
night, but no charges had been plac-
ed against him.
Sees Danger of Attack.
Convention Hall was filled with a
cheering crowd, each person waving
small flag when the Colonel enter
ed. portion of the hall had been
reserved for the men of the Blue and
the men of the Gray. and it was
principally to them that Col. Roose-
welt directed his remarks.
1--WE are told that we enjoy peace
with Mexico" he said, in speaking of
the republic to the south. Eighteen
years ago we had a war with Spain.
The number of Americans killed in
Mexico during this peace with Mex
leo surpassed the number of Ameri-
cans killed by Spain in the war with
Spain, and when this war was
through it was through, whereas
peace continues to rage with unabat-
ed violence along the Mexican border.
Coming to the question of an inva-
sion of American shores by foreign
force, he declared that if an army
half the size of that which attacked
the Dardanelles should invade this
country America would be at its
mercy
The former President declared that
those who assert that there is no dan
ger of the United States ever being
attacked are either ignorant or for
getful of the multitude of examples
which show how international con-
fiicts arise.
New Europe After War.
"After this war we shall see a new
Europe, energetically developing
means of meeting new problems,
said Col. Roosevelt.
"If under these circumstances. we
take refuge in formulae dug out
from the past, instead of developing
these principles so far as to meet
the future, we shall be as foolish as
ii we were to arm our soldiers with
fiint-locks and send them against ma
chine guns.
1.-THE time for fiint-lock theories of
craftsmanship is past"
Col. Roosevelt urged the nation to
"beware of the false prophets"-pro-
fessional pacifists, who, he declared,
do not serve high idales.
Two years ago these false proph-
cts" said there would never be an
other war, the Colonel said, adding,

There were several untoward Incl
dents during Mr.. Roosevelt's visit. A
pocket knife was thrown at Col.
Roosevelt's motor car during the
Memorial day parade and it struck
the arm of John w. McGrath, the
former Presidents secretary, and fell
to the running board of the car.
McGrath tonight said there was no
force behind the knife. and he be-
lieved some one had tossed it toward
the car as a joke. Col. Roosevelt
was told of the incident tonight, and
afterward his secretary issued this
statement:

as an entirely trivial incident and
feels that no weight should be at
