CHICAGO, June 7.-Murdock call
ed the Progrcssives to order at 1927.
Delegates with banners crowded the
hall singing, "When Teddy Comes
marching Home," the new Bull
Moose song. The banner "Texas
wants Teddy" received an ovation.
New Mexica's banner, "If Teddy was
President Where Would Villa Be?n
was received with enthusiasm.
After Bishop William Mcdowell in
voked the divine blessing, the del
egates sang America.
When introducing the temporary
chairman Robbins, Murdock referred
to the Progressive as Christian Sol
diers. Immediately the band inter-
rupted his remarks with Onward
Christian Soldiers" and the conven-
tion joined in singing the song.
CANDIDATES DISCUSSED
Clifford Pinchot said the Republic
ans had not as yet presented an ac-
ceptable compromise candidate. Hi
ram johnson declared if Roosevelt
named another candidate the Pro-
gressives would accept him.
Colorado headed the Western Pro
gressives who filed with Perkins a
demand that tho candidate must
make complete statement of his
domestic and foreign policies.
II is reported the Republican del
egates from New Jersey win intro
duce resolution in their convention
asking that committee be appointed

Robins lauded Roosevelt and referred
to him as the greatest private cti

minutes the applause was so loud and
enthusiastic it was impossible for the
speaker to continue.
The delegates went wild. They
cheered, yelled, shouted, jumped IN

around the hall. When the enthusi-

COLORADO DELEGATION

1t now appears that about 150 Col
oradoans are present at Chicago, but
it is not likely that that many of
them will get into the hall. it Is
estimated that there are 10000 Wis
itors in Chicago. Not more than ten
or twelve thousand can be seated in
the Coliseum.
1t was considered very unfortu-
nor Carlson, owing to illness, found
it impossible to attend the national
convention. The delegation with
Fred Roof at the head found it nee
essary to select an alternate for him.
A. NJ. Stevenson who went early to
Washington and other eastern points
was one of the first Coloradoans on
the ground. He is as strong for
Roosevelt now as he was for Taft
four years ago. He has surprised
the old guard at Chicago who figured
on him being first, last and all the
time against Roosevelt.
Reports have it that Charles Wat
erman of the Colorado delegation, q
native Of Indiana, will be asked to
second the nomination of Fairbanks

''The Progressives," he declared, twill
never surrender their principles"
All known methods of arousing en-
thusiasm were in evidence in the ses-
sion. Perkins said the demonstra-
ton indicated the Progressives would
not stand for a second choice.
Murdoch and Perkins over1uled the
more enthusiastic ones who wnnted
to march on to the Coliseum.
In the demonstration the women
delegates participated Miss Krone
of Kentucky and Mrs. Hunter of
Montana each led different process
sions around the hall, while each
draped themselves in American flags.
At 3:55 this afternoon the Progress

POLITICAL HISTORY OF
CHARLES EVAN HUGHES

When the former governor was ell +.
evated to the Supreme Bench, New
York lost one Of its best political
fighters in Republican ranks since the
days of Roscoe Conklin. He came
by his aggressive ability naturally,
being Of Welsh descent. New York
knew him as a man who wauld just
as soon scrap as sing, and used to do
a good deal Of the latter.
Born in Glenn Falls, New York, on
April IL, 1862, his father was Rev.
David Charles Hughes, direct de-
scendent of noted Welsh family
while his mother before her marrige
was Miss Catherine Connolly. The

MIR. HUGHES THEN AND NOW

History undoubtedly repeats itself.
On June 10, 1912, "A few days before
the Republican national convention,
Justice Charles f. Hughes, on learn
ing that his name was being agitated
as a possible compromise" candidate
in the fight between Taft and Roose-
welt, sent the following message to a
political leader in New York, by
friend;
ANY movement booming Justice
Hughes for the nomination is strictly
without his authority. 1t is against
his express wish" During the last
year Justice Hughes has made almost
identical disclaimers.
