MILWAUKEE ALL SPOKANE 1UMS GET TEDDY Twenty-five Thousand People Hear Colonel Speak of Theft of Wash ington Delegation at Chicago Con vention. "If We Win, We Will Smash Both Old Machine Parties to Hinders," Declares Bull Moose Candidate. SPOKANE. Wash.. Sept. 9. -Tho Inland Empire City today gavo Colonel Roosevelt tho most enthus iastic reception yet accorded him on his swing around tho circle. Twenty-flvo thousand people packed tho streets In front of Mason ic Temple and gavo the colonel a good start by yelling for him to "throw his hat In tho ring." Hut Out or King "Well, the way the sun shines In ray face, I guess I'd better take my hat out of the ring and put it on ray head," the colonel retorted, the "theft of tho Washington delegation at the Chicago convention," was the theme with which Colonel Roosevelt opened. "This was pre-eminently a state where tho people were de frauded of their right to say who their nominee should be," the colonel declared. "I believe Washington Is for Roosevelt," he resumed. "You bet," the crowd yelled, and the colonel grinned, delightedly. "How ever," he resumed, "I'm not going to talk about the republican party, I don't discuss dead folks. I'm against, those who pay for political services wltir judgeships and district attorneyships. If we win, we' will smash both the old machine parties to flinders." Proud of Country Life "One of the ihings of which I wns most proud when I was president," tho colonel declared, "was the coun try life commission. I want to see the cities Brow, but not nt the ex pense of the country. The welfure of the nation denends upon the wealth of the country. Congress was not awake when they considered that commission. They would not appropriate monev to print the re port, but tho business men of. Spo kane did print it themselves." Continuing, tho colonel reiterat 'd his plans for reducing the high cost of living by bringing tho fanner .:i- rectly in touch with tho consumer. Recall of Judicial Decisions Roosevelt explained in detail the workings of his nlan for the recall of judicial decisions. "I don't propose for the peop.e to exereiso nny control over the purely judicial functions of the judge," ho declared, "but I do- mo.t emphatically propose Hint the peoplv and not the judges shall decide what (he policy shall bo in all matters of social nnd industrial justice." "WJ.nt about the Croton dmaf" an auditor yelled. The colonel turned rugrily around. "J don't know what you want to know," ho answered. "Ask ma what about tho procession of equinoxo?."
