 AT i. Q. ?. MEETING
All Speakers Sure They're Candi- dates Are the Chosen MOSeSeS

Chicago, June 10-Char1es w. Fair banks was presented to the republican national convention yesterday by Representative Wm. H. Wood of h. diana, as Indiana candidate for the presidential nomination, and as the man who not only would make one of the greatest presidents the country ever has had, but whose election would assure the election of a republican majority to both branches of congress.
 MT. Wood pointed to the former vice presidents record as spokesman for President Mckinley in the senate be- fore and during the Spanish war, to his part in framing the policy of the nation toward territorial acquisitions and to his championing sound money and a protective tariff as proof that he was fitted by ability and experience to guide the destinies of the nation dur ing the trying times ahead. He de- clared that MT. Fairbanks, who had marched from a Ohio log cabin to a senatorship and to the vice presidency of the United States, was in the zenith of his intellectual powers. Referring to the split in the party four years ago, he said Indiana's son spoke whenever called upon during the embittered campaign that followed, always ex- pounded republican doctrine, but at no time imputing' evil motive to any ~one who flor the time had departed from the house of the fathers"
 With Indiana again the great politi- cal battle-ground of the country, MT. Wood suggested that wisdom in the oh oice of a presidential candidate would make certain the election of two senators from that state.
 { "In selecting our candidate" said Representative Wood at the outset, Eve will be actuated by but one prime purpose, and guided by but one su- preme desire, that is, to name a man who will stand four square to all the winds that blow against the honor, the dignity and rightful prosperity of the republic, and who will, at the end of his tenure of office, will leave, as the brightest heritage of his administra- ton his entire country and all it's citizens prosperous and at peace with the world, and the republican party, that confided to him it's trust, firmly entrenched in the confidence and af- fections of the notion.
 "In order that this may be, our can- didate should be a man who possesses as nearly as possible all the qualifica- tions of heart and mind that are so requisite to the fullest discharge of the 1 duties of this great office.
 He should be a man with grasp | of the necessities of the hour, states | man in every sense of the word, broad 1

candidate for president of the United States"
 Du Pont Nominated.
 In naming Colonel DuPont, Con- gressman Miller said: It is one of the men who have done much to bring fame and honor to my state that we present to this convention today In 1863 this gentleman was born in the state of Kentucky. The silver spoon was not numbered among his play things. Our candidate commenced life as a mine worker in the state of Kentucky. By the time he was thirty years of age he had become superin- tendent of the mine in which he had started work as a laborer.
 His interest in the betterment of the civic and industrial conditions in the mining camps, while of benefit to the employers, due to increased eff1- ciency, was in reality done to increase the welfare of the workers, who were first in his heart for he had been one of them.

 ''The personality of the candidate we nominate may have much to do with the result. l am authorized by the delegation from Illinois and it in turn is instructed by the republicans of the state, to present for your con- sideration the name of a candidate for the high office of the president of the United States.
 The story of his life as I know it is for the most part a very simple one; and yet it has in it many ele- ments of the heroic which elevated it far above the level of the common place.
 He has been twice elected to the United States senate, once by the state legislature and once by direct vote of the people; in each instance, his cleo tion was preceded by a primary vote for the nomination.
 This is an outline of the life story of the man whose name I am instruct ed to submit for your consideration. In behalf of the state of Illinois, I nomin- ate Lawrence Y. Sherman as your

present for leadership in this most pregnant and potential period of world psychology From the apex of authority he would progressively per SOnify Amerca-the real America. In all the galaxy of gallant captains pressing forward to command, Wis consin's champion alone meets in full the exacting measure of this hour of earth's greatest extremity when America must not, dare not fail. He sees in war the antith esis of progress the very inmost sanctuary and citadel of privilege, the throne of the monstrous incarnation of mans in humanity to man; the shattering of whose columns would mark the first great stride toward the building or the progressive empire of the world. Others have sensed this thought in part: others have spoken little sec tions of the truth; but to him there stands revealed a fixed, unchanglng moral law whose application is the same from parish to principallty and world domain. The current or hls progressiVism has never known retiring ebb, but with expanded opportunity has to increasing purpose grown up through coun- try, state, and nation in a 'd1apa- sen breaking fuIl' in world morality. Compact of poise and power and pur- pose, he would mobilize the moral energy of the world, summonlng the neutral nations in solid phalanX, and as the spokesman of billion pro- testing, sympathizing souls, ne WOuld as with a monarch's voice. recall the bloody dogs of war and bld this senseless conflict cease; he would subject the contending natlonaltfes to the steady pressure or world opinion insistent and persistent as the voice of an offended God until there came the peace of Lincolns S fond hope and fervent prayer that endures not for a day, nor a century, but for all time, when nations shall rot lift sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more.'
 "Gentlemen, Wisconsin gives you the name of her loved and trusted leader-brave, true-hearted, cour- teous, simple, gentleman; regenera- tor of a proud and prosperous com r1onwealth; first architect of the su- perb and splendid structure that goes ever forward to completion, a re- deemed America, and today her truest prophet of international morality Robert M. LaFollette.''
 Sherman Nominated.
 William J. Calhoun in nominating Sen. Sherman of Illinois for presiden tial candidate at the republican na- tional convention today said:
 For more than fifty years with the exception of three widely separated administrative periods the republican party has governed this country. Four years ago our party was still the ma joritN party but unfortunately bitter personal antagonisms, rival ambitions and factlOnal disputes were developed that disrupted the party and it went down in the most disastrous defeat ever known in the history of American politics.

LaFOIIette Nominated.

The name of Senator Robert M LaFollette, of Wisconsin, was pre- scented to the republican national convention by M. B. Olbrich, of Madi- son, Wisconsin. He spoke as follows
 For the third consecutive time Wisconsin presents to the Republi- cans of the nation opportunity for party salvation. Twice before through the rejection of her message disaster came. Today she points once more the way to victory and honor. She presents again the can tidate whose speech and action best interpret and express the hours spirit and it's needs.
 "War is the worlds most obvious reality today. Across the eastern ocean the genius of militarism in the ghastly humor of the mad keeper of a mad house has locked the nations of Europe hand in hand and set them dancing the Masque of the Red Death round the funeral pyre of Civilization.s The nations daily thought is colored by reflection from the fiery glow that inf1ames the eastern horizon.
 ITO some, old values, viewed in that perspective of blood and flame have lost proportion. Re-examining the title deeds of the national inheri- tance in it's crimson glare, they find in one hundred and forty years of na- tional existence one long record of hazardous folly. Stridently they as sert that the red alchemy of war alone can transmute the common dross of our humanity and mint it into the bright and shining gold of Eeroism; that only by the route of the bludgeon can America attain or preserve the attributes of a national soul. Boldly and baldly they sanctify slaughter for the sake of commerce and bid us kill to keep the trade

minded and just, who knows not only the needs of his country and its peo- pie but who knows how to administer to those needs. A man who has firm convictions as to right and wrong ana who has the courage of his convic tions and will right wrong that is done to the humblest of our citizens. A man who acts not from impulse, but who bases his action upon reason, and who, when he makes up his mind, will not change it except when con- vinced that he is in error; and who when so convinced, is broad enough and just enough to acknowledge his error and correct it. A man who be- lieves in the fundamental principles of the republican party and that they are essential to good government, and who knows how to apply those princi- ples to secure the best results for all our people. A man who has the con- fidence of the business world and who has gained that confidence by reason of his steadfast adherence to business integrity in the administration of pub lie office A man who has an abiding faith in the people, and they an abid- ing faith in him because he has been tried in the crucible of experience and not been found wanting.
 Indiana presents to this convention for it's consideration a candidate who possesses all of these qualifications, in the person of Charles Warren Fair banks"
 Discussing the democratic party briefly the senator said it had pro claimed the sacredness of it's pledges and then profaned them;" that it had "espoused the freedom of the seas and wrought only the freedom of the Pan anna canal" and had "professed econ ony and is staggered by it's own ex- travagance.'' He attacked the ship ping bill because of it's government ownership feature and the attempt of democratic forces to extend independ- ence to the Philippines, ito set adrift an island empire in violation of our obligations to the world, to the Phil ippine people and ourselves
 Senator Harding concluded with a laudation of Americanism which he said "begins at home and radiates abroad. The republican conception gives the first thought to a free peO- pie and a fearless people, and bespeaks conditions at home for the highest human attainment. We believe in American markets for American pro- ducts, American wages for American workmen, American opportunity for American genius and industry, and American defense for American soil American citizenship is the reflex of American conditions, and we believe our policies make for fortunate peo- pie for whom moral material and ed ucational advancement is the open way. The glory of our progress con- firms. The answered aspirations of a new world civilization acclaim. We have taken the ideal form of popular government and applied the policies which had led a continent to the altars of liberty and glorified the republic. We have justified pride and fortified hope. We need only to preserve and defend, and go unfalteringly on. Power is the guarantOr of peace and conscience the buckler of everlasting right. Verify, it is good to be an Am erican. And we rejoice to be repub- Iicans."

Rocky Ford.-There is considerable
interest in Otero county regarding the

this road is cut up by the heavy loads

ture Of a good sum Of money each
