Which 1 Declared Not Original With Progressive Win. built on vacant property near Twelfth and MorrtSon streets, which has been promised to the Rosarlans for that purpose by the Sweeney Investment Company. Bruce Clendenlngr, of the Investment company, made the an nouncement yesterday. The Royal Rosarlans will attend to the entertainment of all organized del egations of visitors and will them selves bear the expenses of the enter tainment. The offer of this portion of a block for the erection of a grand stand for the guests will materially help them In their plan. The proposed prandstand will be turned over entirely to visiting delega tions, no tickets will be sold and only guests of the Rosarlans will be ad mitted to the stand. It Is difficult at the present time to estimate the numbers of visitors who will become guests of the Rosa rlans during the Festival, at present, but it is thought that the total will be considerably more than 1000. From Oakland a delegation of 300 la ex pected. 150 will come from Pasadena. Spokane and Seattle are estimated at 100 each and Saa Diego and Victoria at SO each, while delegations are or ganizing In many other cities upon which no estimate has yet been se cured. PRISON REFORM AIDED WASHINGTON. May -f1' A majority of the members ol JM Republican National Committee are In favor of a National convention to change the rule, regarding the has.. Vt "presentation and to prov J. t.V recognition of state primary la In future nominating conventions. This Wt became known here tooay follow ing the return of the Progressive Re publican leader, who partic ipated w the Chicago conferences of Sunday and MSRuchy"being the case there Is little doubt of the calling of the convention which the Chicago conference de manded by resolution. Out of the meeting of the executive commlltM of the National committee, which Is to be held here a week from next Saturday In response to a call by Chairman Hilles. there will come the summoning of the full committee to take formal action on the convention proposition. Time Alone ileesnei la Doubt. The only real doubt at present seems to be the time for holding the National gathering- , . As It happens, however, a quiet can vass has been made through sources that were not Identified with the Pro gressive Republican conference at Chi cago, and It has developed that the committee will favor the calling of a v.ini convention, although By a narrow margin. For a time there was considerable doubt as to how the com mittee would stand. It being realized that the members from the Southern .,!. and from the territories where representations In National conven tions would be cut down materially by the adoption of proposed new rules rome within three or four of constl- nn..hslf nf the full body. - . , that It has been louna. nuwc.c there Is a margin In favor of the spe cial convention Idea and that Chair man Hilles knew this when he called the meeting of the executive commit tee, which in a manner anticipated the recent conference at Chicago. Leaders In Harmoay. The most significant thing in con nection with the situation at present is the substantial harmony of opinion be tween the two old factions in the par ty at least so far as the leaders are concerned relative to the need for changing the rules under which Re publican National conventions shall operate In the future. It Is by no means Idea, of which the Progressives as represented by Senators Borah. Cummins and others and by Governor Iladlcy and various state leader, have a monopoly. Senator Lodge has been working for years to have the basis of representation changed. Senator Root, who waa chairman of the last Republican National Conven tion. Is an ardent advocate of both a change In the rules affecting represen tation and those pertaining to the man ner of choosing delegates so as to al low the state free rein in providing election by primaries or on the state itnit plan Instead of the Congressional restrict plan. Senator Root publicly stated his position in favor of a spe cial National convention several months ago. Opponents la Minority. Some of the standpatters. It is true, are inclined to oppose the National ronventio scheme. But they are in t'.ie minority among their own fellows. Th trouble they foresee is that the agitation of the reorganization move ment along the line, already advanced will result ultimately In the creation of a general primary system for nom inating candidates lor iresiceni ar.u Vice-President, knocking out entirely the National nominating convention. These persons, together with some "Progressives" for that matter, take the ground that poWtijs is being made for the Republican party fast enough r!ght here In Washington. They look for a- reaction among the voters fol lowing the putting into effect of a Democratic tariff act. Conservatives, however, nave gone so far as to con gratulate the returning Progressive leaders on the success of their confer ence at Chicago. With the get-together spirit pervad ing the atmosphere here, a question that naturally has taken on new force concerns the probability of bringing the "Bull Moose" Progressives back into the- Republican fold. That many who cast their fortunes with the third party will return to the old home. If convinced that it is to be managed henceforward by Progres sives, is taken for granted by those who are engineering the rehabilita tion movement. The theory la that scores of thousands ot Republican vot ers Joined the third party ranks last Fall with no Intention of remaining permanently outside the Republican ranks, being Impelled to act as they did only by a desire to repudiate the last National convention. ED MORREL.lv AT PAXTAGES HAS IDEA OX BOYS' CARE. Take Care of the Lads and the Men Will Take Care or Themselves, Says Pardoned Life-Termer. Take care of the boys; the men can take care of themselves. By the- paraphrasing of an old ad age, Ed Worrell, ex-desperado, ex-life-termer In Folsom ahd San Quentln prisons and now one of the foremost workers in behalf of prison reforms, sums up his opinions of the regenera tion of the present and future genera tion. Worrell has undertaken something ................ ....... ifx ''"? y ' :1 ; x: w ' jy jtestaaadfeAft'niiMiii V.A MorreM. Pardoned Life-Termer t fan Quentln nnd Felsom Prison. Who la nt tne Pnn-taa-en This Week. no other prison reform worker has at tempted and by his act he fs dally reachlng-'hundreds with his view, on the methods of bettering the lots of unfortunate beings. He has entered vaudeville and from across the foot lights this week at Pantages he tells. In graphic style of the abuses formerly practiced in many of the penal institu tions of the country and how they have been gradually rooted out by the Introduction of the Golden Rule. Worrell waa the youngest member of the Evans-Sontag gang of train rob. bers that gripped California in a reign of terror in the early "90s. The trouble came when the railroad companies tried to and finally did succeed In ousting Sontag, Evans and other set tlers from their homesteads on the banks of Mussel Slough. Desperate, the men turned outlaws and they were hunted without rest.' a huge bounty being offered for their capture, dead or alive. Coming from his home In Pennsyl vania when a lad, Worrell fell in with the gang by chance and the meeting later cost him 16 year. In the Folsom nd San Quentln prisons, five of which were spent in the dungeon In solitary con flnoroent. Today Worrell stands high as a prison reform worker and it was through his efforts that the straight ackot and the derrick, two instru ments of torture, were done away with in the California prisons.
