Notable Contribution to Ma
tion's History, Says Chair
man Wilcox.

NEW York, Sept. William r.
Wilcox. chairman of the Republican
national committee, believes that
Colonel Roosevelt's first speech in
behalf of Charles e. Hughes, at Lew
Iston, Me-. Thursday night not only
is of inestimable value to the Repub-
lIcan candidate. but is "a noteworthy
contribution to the history of the
nation.
Plunging into the Maine campaign
lhe colonel assailed the Wilson adj
ministration for its policy, flayed hy-
phenism and held President Wilson
responsible for IAN evil revival of
non-American and anti-American d.
vision along politico-raclal lines"
Weakened National Spirit.
This is due, primarily, the colonel
said, to the fact that President Will
son had lacked the courage and the
vision to lead this nation in the path
Of his duty, and by this lack of af-
Rrmative leadership has loosened the
moral fibre of our people, weakened
our national spirit and has encour-
aged the upgrowth within our bor-
ders OF separation along the lines OF
racial origin"
The colonel declared the citizen
who seeks to shape American policy
in the interest of the country from
which he or his ancestors came has
no moral right to American citizen.

SENATOR BURTON
WILL STUMP
THE STATE
More Fine Reports Brought to
Republican State Head
quarters by Visitors.

Former Senator Theodore L. Bur
ton, OF Ohio, who was a candidate for
the Republican presidential nomination
and who received a substantial vote
on the first two ballots In the Chicago
convention Of the party, will be one Of
the big guns In the Republican cam
paign in West Virginia. This an
nounCement was made at Republican
state headquarters Saturday by Secre-
tary Charles G. Coffman.
Although Mr.. Burton's itinerary has
not yet been arranged IT is practically
certain that he will make speech in
Clarksburg. The Ohio statesman made
a fine impression in Clarksburg when
he spoke here on Memorial day, and
local people will insist that he be sent
here for a speech. And there's an
other reason. The former senator likes
Clarksburg and 1t is certain that he
would be pleased to make a speech
here. His tour Of the state will prob
ably begin early in October, although
no official announcement to this effect
las been made.
Visitors to state headquarters con-
tinue to bring glowing reports OF party
harmony in all parts Of the state.
Among those who visited headquarters
Friday were Wallace Gribble, OF West
Union, candidate for the state senate
from the Twelfth district, which is
composed OF Harrison, Lewis and
Doddridge counties; Charles Amien, a
prominent business man OF Wheeling;
and V. T. Hanley. Of Grafton. chairman
Of the Taylor county Republican COM
r1ittee.
Mr.. Grlbble was enthusiastic over
the outlook for his election and for
the success of the Republican national
and state tickets. He has been look
ing things over in the Twelfth district
for the last few days and he told Secre-
tary Coffman Friday that the party
was never in better shape.
Messrs. Amien and Hanley brought
fine reports of party harmony in Ohio
and Taylor counties. The success Of
the Republican tickets in these coun-
ties is certain, they said.

SENATE NOT TO CHANGE
BILL FROM THEH0USE

WASHINGTON. Sept. p The en-
lctment irto law OF enough OF Presl-
dent Wilson's program to prevent a
railroad strike seemed assured when
the Senate re-assembled this morn
Ing with program which called for a
vote not later than 6 o'clock this
evening.
1t was the belief of administration
leaders that the Adamson bill as 1t
passed the House late yesterday, APP
proved by President Wilson and for
mally accepted by the labor leaders
as meeting their demands, would
eventually be accepted by the Senate,
thus obyiating a delay in conference
to reconcile differences with the
House.
AS soon as the perfected bill final
Ey is passed a special messenger will
carry it to the summer White House
at Shadow Lawn SO the president may
sign 1t at once and end the menace

try's transportation lines at o'clock
Monday morning.
The first amendment proposed today
came from Senator Shaffroth, Demo-
crat. He proposed to fix Senator I'm
derwood's amendment, empowering
the Interstate Commerce Commission
to make wage schedules so that no en-
ployee would be compelled to work
for the rate prescribed
Senator Hardwick. Democrat, de-
claring Congress was being held up

the adoption of the Underwood amend
ment.

not only bridge over this crisis but
also provide that there never can
arise again in this country an oppor-
tunity for any man or set Of men, rail-
read managers or workers, to seize
