TEDDY WILL NOT
BEAT CHICAGO
CONVENTION
Announcement Makes Those
Fearing a Speech by Colo
mel Breathe Easier.
JOHN ". Knox.

CHICAGO. May 13.-Col. Roose-
welt will not be in Chicago for either
the Republican or the Progressive
national conventions. He is to remain
in Oyster Bay, but he will be in in
slant touch with both OF the big po-
litical events.
This information came from a
source that is in closest touch with
the colonel and is considered us au-
thoritative. II sets at rest some fears
OF representatives of the field OF ac-
tive candidates for the Republican
nomination.
The one bunch OF danger heard in
all the rival camps is that T. R. will
get into the convention, make
speech and start something that all
candidates working together couldn't
stop.
Proposal 10 SIllzzle Him Heard.
This worry had reached the stage
where the Rdvisability OF preventing
the colonel from speaking, II he did
come to Chicago. was seriously con-
sidered BY managers Of active candi-
dates. The element-not substantl-
ally largo-that wanted to shut him
out was promptly squelched, accord
ing to reports. It was urged on be-
half OF this minority that the colo
mel is not delegate or an alternate,
and technically not entitled to be
heard.
The ultimate decision was that the
crowd that had to shoulder the re-
sponsibility OF sQuelching T. r. would
be committing political hari-kari. The
only thing that happened formally was
the fiat rundown by the national
committees subcommittee Of the sue-
gestion that Mr.. Roosevelt be TEN.
porary chairman and that Mr.. Taft
be permanent chairman, thus taking
care Of the two Republican ex-presi.
dents.
The colonel. apparently, has settled
the matter by making his plans TO STAY
away. The possibility remains always
mat the program may be overturned
in Jiffy and that he will repeat the
procedure Of 1912. when It also was an.
nounced that he would not come tc
Chicago. When the crisis arrived he
came, and a sensational reception
awaited him.
Substantially all Progressive dele.
gates have been elected. Illinois is
about the only state that is not formal.
" instructed 10 vote for Roosevelt.
The difficulty now is reported to be
that the Republican situation is Sc
chaotic that inside political wisdom
dictates that the colpners nomination
by the Progressive convention be de
layed as long as possible. 1t is not con.
sidered advisable 10 have his nomi,
nation formally by the Progressive.
until the Republicans shall have gone
through at least dozen ballots.
The Progressives have nothing TO dc
except adopt platform, nominate
Roosevelt and the vice presidential
candidate and adjourn. They can dc
this in two days. The report in Chicago
% that the national committee Thurs.
day may determine upon recess until
there is line on what is to happen
at the Coliseum.

VICE PRESIDENT
"0ffice Of No Importance Now"
One State College Stu
dent Believes.

STATE COLLEGE. Pa. May 10
Every one Of the $50 students study
ing Political PARTIES" Mt the Penn
sylvania State College, knew that
Woodrow Wilson is president of the
United States, but elghty-one of them
were not able TO name the vice presi-
dent.
One student complacently an
nounced the office is of no import
ance now"
Three questions were given to the
students without notification to test
their knowledge OF governmental af-
fairs. The class WINS asked a.
Name the president and vice presi-
dent OF the States. (2) Name all
elective offices in this state and the
incumbents. cd Name all elective
county offices.
While the president was correctly
named in every instance, sixty one
did not know Marshall is vice presi-
dent. Stephens. Clark, Mitchell and
Fairbanks each drew one vote for
the place and nine thought sherman
was still in office. Three students
frankly admitted they did not know
who was vice president.
All but two OF the class knew the
governor of Pennsylvania was elected
to Office. but four were unable to
say his name was Brumbaugh. AS
for the lieutenant governor, Rey-
nolds. Bell, Shields, "McCreasy." and
McClaln we're mentioned as the in
cumbent.
McClain led the balloting with
thirteen votes. Houck, Berry, Sny-
der and Young were listed as the
state treasurer, and seven knew it
was Young.
Rotan, Rel and Cunningham were
said to be the attorney general OF the
commonwealth. Forty of the class
agreed that the office was by appoint
ment, but none said that Brown was
the present holder.
For elective state officers. Penrose
and Ware we're given as United
States senator's from Pennsylvania.
Four students said an alderman was
a state elective officer. but three 9th
ers put down mayor as an elective
county onice.

forth by the debate on bill repeal.

derwood Tariff law the speech de.
livered in the House, March Is. by
Representative Sloan, OF Nebraska
should command wide attention.
The major portion OF 1t appears else.
where in our columns. It will be
seen that Mr.. Sloan has gone deeply
and analytically into the subject OF
the outrageous treatment which
American farmers have suffered at
the hands Of the party responsible for
the enactment OF the Underwood
Free-Trade Tarriff. He shows that
while there has been an enormous in
crease in importations directly COM
peting with the products Of American
agriculture. Farmers in every part
of the world who have had anything
to sell have taken advantage of our
low Tariff and no Tariff, and have
added hundreds of millions to their
former volume of exports to the
American market.
1t is as though the Free Traders
angered by the fact that American
farmers have in the past contributed
a very important share of the votes
by which the policy of Protection has
been upheld, had decided to punish
the farmers by exposing them to the
competition of all the rest Of the
world.
The patience and care bestowed
upon this branch Of Tariff discussion,
and the facts and conditions result
ing therefrom, entitle Representative
Sloan's speech of March Is to a
general reading. Seldom have the
baneful effects Of Free-Trade upon the
prosperity of American farmers been
more clearly shown Or more forcibly
presented.

THE WAR BEGINS At HOME.

| This week sees the first stages OF
our home made war. Mobilization OF
| various forces has been going on for
some time. recruiting prosecuted with
some vigor in the meantime, and or
ganization and training for active OPP
erations undertaken in various camps.
! Each of the belligerents has selected
its particular casus belli and with
the beginning OF this week the boys
will be getting into trenches for the
opening skirmishes. In Europe, the
preliminary stages Of the offensive
are generally marked by bringing the
heavy artillery into play preparatory
for the advance. In this way the
strategy and tactics abroad diher
from the plans that will be followed
here. Just now nobody seems to
know Just who has the big caliber
guns. and so use of them will be de-
ferred until later in the campaign.
Another difference between the war
overseas and that in which we are
all soon to be involved Is that over
here ALL sides will be on the often
sive-and let's hope It dosen't get as
offensive as it promises to be.
This war-at least we all hope Sc
will be fought out without gunpowder
and bullets. No one can promise, how
ever, that gas attacks will not figure
in It. Red fire will probably replace
LIQUID fire. Just to have it ike an
up.to.date battle, we shall probably
see many Of the participants on all
sides ur in the air much of the time.
