IN FULL SWING Senator Burrows of Michigan Temporary Chairman ROOSEVELT W1DLY CHEERED Five Principal Planks in Platform CoinpleUd Siniinalion of Tall iuuiuiiuw Special to the Evening Review. The Coliseum, Chicago, June 10. Represented by lls.0 delegates, as sembled from the various states and territories, as well as our "colonial possessions," tile Republican party of the United Slates met today ul noon in quadrennial convention for tiie purpose of nominating candi dates tor the presidency and vice prusideucy, and tor forum luting a set of policies upon which the forth coming campaign shall be cunducled. The scene was Chicago's greatest amphitheatre, where four years ago 1 heudore Roosevelt was matle the party's choice The seating capac ity of the building has been in creased to nearly 1 1,000, thus pro dding accommodations for li.uuo mure people than In 1904. At this, only a fraction of the great con course of party enthusiasts that has lieen pouring Into town since Satur day was able to obtain adtiission. i'imhik me iisscuiuniig oi dele gates and spectators, Weldon's Chicago Concert Hand played clas- Ical and other kinds of music. .Shortly before the hour of twelve. Mrs. Heatrice-Klscher Erlinger sang Arditi's "Enchantress.", The band then swung into the Inspiring strains of "Tannhaueser." Itofore the ap plause died out. Colonel Harry S. New, chairman of the Republican National Committee, stepped to the front of the platform, rapped vigor ously on the presiding olllcer's table. iind called the convention to order. I'be excited buzzing lapsed Into pro found silence, when Bishop H. J. Muldoon began a fervent prayer, in which he invoked Divine guidance for the deliberations of the dele gates. Following the reading of the call t the National convention by Secre tary Elmer Dover, United States Mon itor Julius C. Burrows, of Michigan. was introduced as temporary chair man. One of the "Dig Four" from Mich igan was upon his feet In an instant witli a motion, "that the action of he national committee be ap proved." The tool ion was put and agreed to unanimously, amid cheers and baud-clapping. Senator Bur rows then delivered the formal open ing address of the convention, which, according to tradition, is to be the key-note of the coming campaign. As soon as Senator Burrows had "included his address, lie was pre iented with the gavel which be Is to use until lie gives wav to Senator Lodge, of Massachusetts, wYiose name will be reported by the com mittee on permanent organl.atlon for tbe position of permanent pre siding otlicer. at a later session of ihe convention. . The most Important action of the iftornoon will be the selertion of the gpa.Wurious committees. Including those on temporary organization, rules ami order of business, credentials and resolutions. The latter Is most Im portant, since it. will dralt the national party platform. The chair manship will probably go to Senator Albert .1. Hopkins, of lllnols. Burton to Name Tnft. William H. Tint will he the first man placed in nomination before tbe national convention. When the roll call of tile states for no.nlriations be gins. Alabama will yield i1(.r piaco to Ohio, and Representative Hurton will nominate Taft In a speech which those who know Mr. Burton's ability expect to tire the convention with en thusiasm. Th'-n will folft.w the seconding ep'-echcg of George A. Knight, Senator Dolliver and other speakers of except jot,;, 1 mwir and ability, and a pace will have been set which other orators will find it hard to maintain. It is announced that Representa tive Burton will consume about twenty minutes in bis nnniinatltie speech. Tills Is more time than has been taken by the orators who have ueuvereu uomi-i-aing addresses which have become classics. Col. Kobt. t'. tiiei'i-snll nli .

With Taft's nomination now nl inost a certainty, interest is centered in the contest for the vice-presidential nomination. Rumors of a coal ition between the Tuft and the Fair banks forces, which will result in the election nf Mm Tl,w.i.... man as the tail of the Tuft ilck..t are still in tne air. Remarks of Burrows. In his address to the convention today. Chairman Burrows spoke In oart as follows "Four years ago the Republican liany in national convention submit ted tbe record nl Its. n,.l, l.vo.,tu i ihe American people, announced its policies ror me luiure, and invoking continuance of public favor, placed in nomination for the olllce of Pres ident and Vice-President of the Uni ted States, Theodore Roosevelt and manes .

"In view of this endorsement. It becomes pertinent and opportune to enquire. Wbut has the II,,,,,, I. M,..,,, I'arly done lu the last four years of uuternnieniai control In many res pects the most brilliant In the history of the party and the country to for feit public confidence or create dis trust In its capacity for future ad ministration? Although some unto ward and utiforseen conditions have beset the Republic during the last four years, yet these have been met and overcome with alacrity and cour age, and the country has inarched steadily onward in itu ..,. .i, ..., course of Industrial triumphs. Tbe .i.c ueneuciai legislation of the Republican Party during the long veins of Its ascendancy and adminis tration or national affairs laid the foundation for the public weal so securely that no disquieting condi tion, not even a temporary panic, which necessarily touches the main spring of all industrial life, could ar rest tbe country's resistless advance. "Roquet for Roosevelt. "Nothing has added so much to President Roosevelt's Inst f,,n. o- his persistent and irrevocable rerus- u io moan me unwritten law of the Renublic hv ncpi.ntinf n n.l,,n,l.,.. for a third term. Iiy this net of seir abnrgutlon be places his name and mine in tne secure keeping of his tory by the side of that of the immor tal Washington. "Tilt' WOrk Of tlllw rnlivniOI.,,, ...til soon be concluded. The platform will voice the dominant thought of the people, and tbe candidates nom inated must stand upon It firm nnd erect. They must have the patriot ism nnd sagacity of a Lincoln, the tenacity of a Grant, the wisdom and moderation of a McKlnley. and the cuui.ige or a lloosevelt. With such .'1 Platform mirl Such cnmlLlnrn. !, issue cannot tin In rl,,l, Ti. r publican party confidently submits -corn io me approving Judgment of tbe Amerlman people and, upon Its renewed declaration of faith, in vokes continuance of public favor. The Tariff Question. "Tbe Reotihllciin nrn-lv utiitwlu rn.

The Secretary of the Treasury 'has al ready taken the necessary steps to give effort to this legislation, nnd banking nssorlations are already forming to avail t hetiisriv:; of the benefits of this act. It Is doubtful If the provisions of this act will ever be Invoked, as the ability to supply """.' 1 additional currency whenever needed will of Itself have a tendency to make Its issuance un necessarv, "In the meantime, however, the Republican party Is not indifferent to ibn mi essiy of a further nnd comprehensive revision of our mone tarv and banking system, and to that end the congress jut closed author ised tbi. creation of a monetary com missi!)?;) composed of 18 members of the two houses of congress clothed with power to Inquire into and re port to congress at the earliest date practicable, what changes are noc essary or desirable In the monetary system of the United States or in the laws relatng to banking and cur rency, and lor this purposo they are authorized to sit during the sessions or recess of congress, at such times and places as they may deem desir able, to send for person and papers, to administer oaths, to summons and compel the attendance of witnesses, experts, and other assistants as shall be necessary to carry out the purpose for which said commission was cre ated, and to make such investiga tions and examinations, in this or other countries, of the subjects com mitted to their charge as they shall deem necessary." FIVE PRINCIPAL PLANKS. Trusts, Railroad Rates, Injunction, Tariff nod Currency. CHICAGO. .Iniio IS Th n, most Important planks of the Repub lican pintiorm rormulnted by Presi dent Roosevelt and Secretary Tift and drnftcd by Wade H. Ellis, Attorney-General of Ohio, and now in the possession of prospective mem bers of the resolutions committee of the National convention for consid eration are here given They are the planks on trusts, anti-injunction, railroad rates, tariff revision, and currency. The trust plank follows: The Republican party passed the Sherman anti-trust bill over lie,,,,,. orotic opposition and onforced it af ter democratic ilerollcitlon. It has been a wholesome Instrument for good In the hands of a wise nnd fear less administration But experience has shown that Its effectiveness can be strengthened nnd Us rent nhtnnic belter attained by such amendments as will give to the Federal govern ment greater supervision nnd control anil the sccurim? of nnhliciiu ....... that class of Interstate corporations inning power and opportunities to i-fTect monopolies nnd at the same time will not Interfere with the exiit enre of associations among business men, farmers and wage-earners so long as their conduct or operations result In n positive benefit to the public. We approve tbe enactment of a railroad rate law and the vigorous enforcement bv tbe orcHent mimtni.. nation of the statutes against re bates and discrimination nu n na,.l. or which the advantages formerly possessed by the large shipper over me siunii Binpper nave substantli.ily iioappenrea. in tins connection we oininenil the nnnronrlntlon nf t'ir.n 000 by the COth Congress In order to enable the Interstate Commerce Commission thoroughly to li,v....tt. gate and give publicity to the r.c- rounis ot (tie railroads. We believe, however. thf tl,o in terstate commerco lnw should he further amended so as to give rail roads th right to make and publish trallic agreements subject to the ap proval Of the Commission bill nmln. mining always the principle of tjin- petuum net ween naturally compet ing lines anil HVolillnir Ihn n,.m..r control of such lines by any means vliatsoever, and we specially favor the enactment or -such legislation as will provide for Federal rnstt-lo!!,,., igi.ltist tbe over-Issue of stocks and bonds by interstate carriers. More or less serious Inaccuracy has characterized the reputed textual piil.lcatlons of the plank relating to Ihe tariff. The exact text of that plank, as well as or thu plank con cerning fin t i -1 ii J ii net I legislation follows: The Republican party dednr"s .in rqulvocally ror a revision of the 'at iff by n special session of congress m mediately upon the Inaugural I :m of the lSext president, and commeiidi the steps already taken to this end In work nsslgned to the appropriate committees of the two houses, which are now Investigating the operation' nnd efTect of existing schedules. In all tariff legislation the true prin ciple or protection Is best maintain ed by the Imposition of Buch duties as will equal the difference between ihe cost of production nt home and abroad, together with a reasonable profit to American Industries, and the benefits that follow are best se cured by the establishment of maxi mum and minimum rntes which shall be applied automatically to the trade of other countries In accordance with their treatment of our trade. The minimum should represent the nor mal measure of protection required for the benefits of our own Indus tries The aim and purpose of the Re publican imlleles Is not onlv to pre serve without excessive duties that security against foreign competition to which American manufacturers, farmers and producers are entitled, lint also to maintain the high stand ard of llvlnp of the wagp-earners ot this country, who are the most direct beneficiaries of (lie protective sys tem.

No actiou was tuk en on the momt-ntuus street pavtug mnttor, but UiIb was principally the fault .of Engineer Kelsay, who, lu submitting his plans and specifica tions, did not segregate the paotlles so that the council could act on each street separately, as required by the charter. Little delay will ensue on this account, however. The council adjourned its meeting until next Wednesday night for the purpose of taking up the matter, and at that time Mr. Kelsny will be present to explain all details not thoroughly un derstood by tile board. Tluee new ordinances were Intro duced. One was killed, another wns enacted Into a law, while the third was glvon first and second readings nnd then laid aalde to be taken up icr final action at the next regulur meeting. The last ordinnnco refer red to provides for the grading and graveling of West First street, In Kinney's addition, from Its southern terminal to 1st Avenue north, and thence east on said avenue for n dis tance of 168 feet. This ordinance will undoubtedly pass when it comets up for its last reading. The ordinance that, failed to pass provided for tho licensing of lunch wagons on wheels. As submitted by the city attorney, the ordinance did not specify the amount of the license, and Councilman Long moved to lay It on the tnblo. Councilman Flsbor objected on tho ground that the city "needed the money." Long then withdrew his motion and substituted another fixing tho llconse fee nt I in, "Just in order to got tho matter be fore the house," ns ho expressed It. "The man who applied for the lunch wagon license agreed to pay $25," said Recorder Orcutt. "And I'll take out two licenses nt $lfi," Bald Marshal Norman. Tho ordinance wns put to a vote and defeated II to I. Cnuncllmnn Cardwell, who cast the only vote In favor of the measure, said laugh ingly: "Might as well let the people run lunch wagons: thev nre all we will have hero after while." The ordinance that missed the council provides that owning sup ports of any character shall bo at least 7V4 feet above the sidewalk. A maximum penalty or tun line nnd 20 llavs fintirisoiiiuetit In nil lu tlv. ed ior violation or the ordinance. which nmellds a law established by the council a rew mouths ago pro viding that aWliillg nuiqmlin niiutliu be not less than il feet above the sidewalk. Before affixing his sig nature to tin new ordinance, Mayor Hoover declared It of no use to ihihh such a measure because tbe "prop erly owners would Ignore It any how," Marshal Norman orrmilMeil to see that the ordinance was en forced, but at tbe same time lie called attention to tin fact that sev eral awnings now In the city were not more than (.'X. feet above the sidewalk. Whether such awnings should be raised to conform with the ordinance was a question with which the council wrestled for several min utes. Thl'V flnllllv derided hi llii, affirmative, uftor Councilman Joseph- sou stati'd that the awning In front of his store was nine feet above tbe sidewalk and that It afforded all We declare for such an amend ment ot the statutes of prucedure in tbe Federal courts with respect to the use of the writ of Injunction sb will oti tbe one band prevent the summary issue of such ordcra with out proper consideration and on the other will preserve undiminished the power of courts to enforce their pro cess to the end that Justice may be dune at all times and to all parties.

Pursuant to nn ordinnnco passed two iiitHii list ago, it was moved to ln creaso Night Policeman Palm's monthly salary from $f.u to Jt'iO nnd .Marshal Norman's salary to $75. This brought Councilman Fisher to his feet with u bunch of Jarring crit icism ngalnst the locul polico force, whom he alleged, was lacking in dili gence. He cited In a general way several alleged cases of disorder wherein no nrrests had boon mnilo, and ho declared himself opposed tc paying police salaries when the of ficers themselves threw nway so many opportunities to enrich the city treasury with tines. Mnrshal Norman lost no time In coming back nt his accuser, opening up on 111 in with the statement that he was throwing stones from n giant house. "Notwithstanding Roseburg bns fewer otllcors than any other town of Its Blue on tho Pacific coast," said Marshal Norman, "1 challenge you to point out n town where better order Is kept than In thlB one. One enn't be nil over this town nt one time. I have never yet heard any complaint ngalnst tho local police force. On the contrary It has been praised for thu splendid order UiAiii tnlned." While the council wns listening very attentively to this exchange or remarks. Mayor Hoover suddenly broke In by calling on nil those In favor or the salary ralao to signiry by saying "Yes."
