CONVENTION IS
BROKEN UP AS.
SPLIT IN PARTY
COMES TO front
4Sers" and Laborites Split on
Radical Platform - LaFol-
lette Given Demonstration.
,By UHIt-s r-rr-~.n

CHICAGO, July 1.-THE Commit
tee of Forty-eight" disagreed with the
leaders of the Labor party when an
.amalgamauon seemed certain. The
Single Tax party carried its quarrel
to the point of Withdrawing from the
Joint convention and nominating a
Single Tax presidential ticket.
Whether the Committee of Forty
eight" will also bolt the convention
appeared uncertain early this after
noon.
The trouble IN the convention was
caused by the radical platform forced
upon it by the Laborites. At first
the friends of Senator LaFollette an
7nounced that he would not accept the
presidential nomination on such plat
form. The platform was then consid-
erably modified but whether LaFol-
Qette will now indorse it is doubtful.
A big demonstration for LaFollette
was started at this afternoons session
and threatens to stampede the joint
convention.
The situation is now like this: If
the revised platform is adopted LaFol-
lette may run. II the original Labor
party platform is adopted LaFollette
will refuse a nomination, and the
Committee of F'orty-eight" will bolt
the convention.

State Swim Pools
Dodge Federal Tax

MONTROSE, COLO, July 1.-Two
Western slope swimming pools were
recently caught in the net which local
internal revenue collectors put out for
those who failed to pay proper taxes
to the government. The tax on
swimming pool sales became effective
in September, 1917, and up to the mid
die of this year the swimming pools at
both Ouray and Ridgeway had not
made any payments of taxes.
The pool at Ouray was forced to
pay more than $500 in taxes Appeal
has been taken. The pool at Ridg-
way had to pay more than 5000.
