All (lie deli-Kiitcs-alx III miiiiU-r were lo bo selected al larue. The counties were entitled to se lect their deli'culea I hroiiuti ihelr roun ty committee or by irluinry. In one county, Mnrlcoim. a majority of the 'Oluiiiltteo decided to select Its di-le-(tnlea and a minority to hnve a prt niary.

Heimtor Borah and Mr Frank It. Kcllofcg, both lloosevell men made speeches In explaining the volei in which they mild that tho case turned wholly on the Marlon county primary and as there was no evidence to lui peach the result certified, the title of the Taft deleuates was clear 'Thl If tho convention whoso proeee(llnK called forth such loud charge of theft nd fruud from Mr Itoosevelt. Kentucky, lu Kentucky a contest was filed galust only three of the four delogatw al large The fourth Tart delegate seat waa uncontested. The threa con toslanta admitted they were not elect ed by the convention which aent the Taft delegate or by any other. They only contended that If the ltooaevolt furnea had had a majority they would have ben elocteil There were J.H59 dulegalea summoned to the convention by lu call. There wore 440 of these whoae aenta wore contested. If all of these had been conceded to Itoosevelt It would have made the Itoosevelt vol SWT vole less than a majority. The a in I to the committee ou credential from th derision of the national coin Milltee wa abandoned, as It ought to hav been. Michigan, In Michigan tho slat convention bad In It about I.'.IN) delegate. There were only two counties In dispute or ronlest. One waa Wiij-u con my, In which lielndt Is situated, and tho other waa Calhoun county. Th evidence left no doubt that the Taft men car ried by a very large majority Wayue county, but It wss Immaterial whether this was true or not, liecause, leaving out both Wayne county and Calhoun county, tho only counties In contest, th Taft delegates outnumliered by several hundred Iho Itoosevelt dele gate, and they had a clear majority out of the total number of votea that ahould hav been In Ihe convention. Th contest was ao weak a to hardly merit recllaL Toaae. In Texaa ther were 210 counties, of which four have no county govern ment. I'h 2-ia couuile under th call of Ihe convention were allowed to have something over 1,0m) delegate, repre senting them, who were given author Ity to cast 28 vole. Of the 245 coun ties there were nlnety-nlno counties In which the total llepubllcao vote wss but 2,000, In fourteeu of which ther wor no Republican voter, In twenty even of which there were less than leu each and In none of which was there any ltepubllran organisation and In none of which had a primary or con vention been held. It was shown that Colonel Cecil Lyon, to whom bad been aaslgned 41a referee tho disposition of th patronage of th nallonal Itopub llcsn administration for ten year In tlio stale, had been In the habit of con trolling the Republican state conven tion by eccurlng from two federal of ficeholders In each of these nluety-nln counties a certificate granting a proxy to Colonel I.yon or a friend of his to represeiit I In county as If regularly conferred by a Itepulillcnn county or ganisation, Tho national committee and the committee on credential and th convention after the fullest luveatl gatlnn decided that these nlnety-nlue counties In which the Ilepuhllcan vote was so small aud In which there was no Ilepuhllcan party, no convention, no primary, no organisation, was not th proper source for a proxy to give a vole eo,ual to that to lie cast by Iho other 14d counties In which there was a Ilepuhllcan organisation and In which primaries or conventions were held. The two committees therefore held such nluely-ulue proxies to be Illegal and not the basis of proper rep resentation. The two Irllninala who beard the rase decided that they should deduct the nluety-nln votes from the total of 213 and glv the representation to those who controlled the majority of the remainder. The remainder was K2 votes, and out of that the Taft men had carried eighty-nine counties, having ninety votes. This gave to the Taft men a clear majority lu the state convention aud with It eight delegates at large. WASHINGTON. , The contest lu Washington turned on tho question whether the Taft dele gate appointed by the county com mittee In King county, lu which Seattle Is situate, were duly elected to th convention or whether a primary, which was subsequently held and at which Itoosevelt delegates were elect ed, was properly called, so that Us re sult was legal. Under the law the county committee bad the power to de cide whether It would select the dele gates directly or should call a primary. In some counties of the state one course was pursued and In other coun ties the other. In King county the committee consisted of 2,'i0 men, the majority of whom were for Tuft, and that majority, acting through Its exec utive committee, selected the Tuft dele gates to the state convention. Menu-time- the city council of Seattle had re- districted the city. It before had 230 precincts. Now sulist initially the same territory was divided up into 3K1 pre cincts. The chairman of the county committee was a Itoosevelt man. He had beun given authority by general resolution to fill vacancies occurring lu the committee. A general meeting of the committee had been held after the city council had directed the redisrict ing of the city, In which It was re solved, the chairman not dissenting, that representatives could not be se lected to Oil the Sill new precincts un til an election was held In September, 1012. Thereafter and lu spite of this conclusion the chairman assumed Hie right by bio appointment to add to the existing committee 131 precinct com mitteemen, aud with these voting in the committee It Is claimed that a pri mary was ordered. There was so much confusion tn the meeting that this Is doubtful. However, the fact is that the Taft men protested agnlnatlmy action by a committee so constituted ou the grouud that the chairman hud so authority to appoint the 131 new committeemen. They refused to take part In the primary, and so did the La Kullette men. The newspapers report ed the number of votes lu the primary to be something over 3,0(10. The Itooso vclt committee showed by affidavit the number to be fl.000 out of a usual total Ileptibllcnn vote of 75,000 The action of the chairman of the committee In tteuvtiiig (0 add 131 precinct men to th old cummin was, of course, be yond ble power. Tn resolution au thorizing hi in to Bll vacancies, of course, applied only to thus place which became vacant after they bad been filled and clearly did not apply to 131 now products. It could not In lb nstur of things apply to a chang from tho old system to a complete new system of precincts crested by th city council, because If they were to b filled iho onllr Dumber of Kit new precinct different from the old must be tilled. On system could not I nude Into the other by a mere addi tional appointment of 131 committee men. No lawyer will aay that ancb action by th committee thu consti tuted ws legal. Therefore Iho action which Ihe lawful committee of 2TjO took la electing Taft delegate who made a majority In th stste convention wa the only one which could be recognized aa valid. CONTESTED DISTRICT DELE GATES. ALABAMA. Ninth District. Tlio Ninth Alabama contest turned n the question whether the chairman of a district committee bad power to Oil vacancies, whether a committee man who bad aeut hi resignation to tak effect only In rase he was not present, being present, should be pre vented from acting a committeeman, and. third, on the Identity of another committeeman. The written resolu tion under which the light of the rhalrmau to appoint to vacancies wa claimed showed on Its face that th pecinc authority was written In In different writing and different colored pencil between the line. A number of affidavit were Died by committeemen who were present when the resolution was paased to show that the resolu tion contained no such authority. This gov rls to a question of fact upon which a very large majority of both the national committee and the com mittee on credential held that the lead pencil Insertion was a forgery, that the chairman did not have the au thority therefor to appoint to the vacancies, and therefore the action of bis committee wa not valid. Thl mad It necessary to reject the contest ants. Tho committee decided the two other Issue of fact before them In favor of the Taft contention, although the first decision wa conclusive. ARKANSAS. Fifth District to the Fifth Arkansas the question wa one of the Identity of one faction or the other th ltepubllran party. This convention followed the example of the convention of IDOS lo holding that what was known as the Redding faction waa not the Republican party, that It was a defunct organization and had only acquired life at the end of each four year for the purpose of using 'It In the national convention. ! The contestants were therefore reject 1 ed. It was shown that the other or Taft had been In active existence as the Republican party, bad nominated ' a local ticket and bad run congress man. CALIFORNIA. Fourth District The Fourth California presented this question: Under the state law the dele gation, two from each district, was elected on a general ticket, tn a group of twenty-six. Each delegate might either express hi presidential prefer ence or agree to vote for the presiden tial candidate receiving the highest number In the state. In the Fourth district the two candidates from that district on the Taft ticket expressed preference for Taft, but did not agree to vote for the candidates hav ing the highest state vote. These Taft delegntes In the Fourth district re ceived a majority of 200 more than the Roosevelt delegates In that dis trict The national call forbade any law or the acceptance of any Ian which prevented the election of dele gates by districts. In other words, the call of the national convention was at variance with the state law. The state law sought to enforce the state unit rule and required the whole twenty six delegates to be voted for all over the state, assigning two to each dis trict 00 the ticket to abide the state wide election, while the Republican national convention has Insisted upon the unit of the district since 1SS0. That has been the party law. This conven tion recognized the party law and held It to lie more binding than that of the state law and allowed, the two dele gates who had received In the Fourth district a vote larger than their two onoonents asslirned to that district, to I . n....n,,.a In 1,a w.npanll.in lH-LUiuc tcc(,,v:i in m..- vvii .nt"u. This was clearly lawful, for a state has no power to limit or control the basis of representation of a voluntary na tional party In a national convention. The fnet that President Taft by tele gram approved all the twenty six dele gates as representing him Is said to be an estoppel against Ills claiming the election of two of those delegates In their Fourth district What Is there Inconsistent In his approving (he can didacy of all- his delegates and the election of two of them? Why should he be thus estopped to claim that part of the law was Inoperative because tn couOlut with the call of the convention? INDIANA. Thirteenth District. In the Thirteenth ludlnua there was tio question about the victory of the Taft men. because the temporary chair man representing the Taft side was roneeded to hnve been elected by one half a vote more than the Roosevelt candidate. This one-half vote extended through the riotous proceedings, and although It was not as wide as a barn door It was enough. The chairman put the question as to electing the Taft delegates, and after continuous objec-, tioo lusting three hours declared the Continued on next peso Dairymen Please Remember This Notice. , nutter (ut I 30c a pound today In I'orllund, the Terrebonne Co-Ope-ratlve Creamery Association with the 30c price we will pay you ny 2c per pound or tem 30c lust whnt It cost to ship butter to I'ortlnnd.
