Chicago, 111., May 19, Nine hundred
and ninety-two delegates, which will
be Increased to an even 1000 If Arizo
na, and New Mexico succeed in their
demand for six Instead of two dele
gates each, will assemble In the Coli
seum In this city one month from Sat
urday to name a candidate to run as
the republican party's . choice for
president of the United States. , The
time limit for choosing these dele
gates expired Saturday.
These delegates represent the re
publican voters of it states, two terri
tories1, Alaska, Hawaii, Porto Rlco.and
the Philippine Islands. Each delegate
to the national convention mnnunti
a section of the country peopled by
approximately 80,000 people, of whom
at least 1,000 are male adults of the
voting age. So the whole convention
represents the republican party of ap
proximately 16,000,000 voters, or 80,
000,000 people. '
Will Choose a President.
. The convention meets to pick out a
man who will represent the ideas of
the republican voters as to necessary
qualifications for a president of the
United States and to voice the Ideas
of the party as to general policies
which should be followed by the "chief
executive for the four years succeed
ing March 4, 1909. The delegates will
voice these policies in a series of reso
lutions, which, takentogether, Is pop
ularly called a "platform." They are
. ilso to choose a candidate for ylce
nresldent to serve In case of the death
or Inability of the president.
i Theoretically the choice of the nom
inees and the framing of the platform
ire matters which the delegates take
up as quite fresh subjects, and upon
w hich they have varying opinions, but
practically, and as a result of wide
spread discussion In the dally press
.-ind elsewhere, there are always of
inte years some well settled ideas on
the subjects of candfdates and Issues.
nnd a certain unanimity on many mat
ters from the outset. This will not
liold good In the coming convention
to such an extent, however, as In the
conventions of 1900 nnd 1904, when
the standard-bearers were decided
upon In advance.
The convention next month will be
in Sfsslon four days and possibly
longer. The program to- be followed
cn the opening day has been arranged
almost to the last detail. It will pro
ceed about like this:
The delegates will assemble In the
Coliseum at noon on Tuesday, June
IS. They will be called to order bv
Harry New, chairman of the national
committee. Secretary Elmer Dover
v.lll read the official call. Mr. New
'lll make a brief address, presenting
to the convention Senator Dolllver,
Penator Beverldge or whoever may be
decided upon In advance for temnor-
i-y chairman. The chief duty of the
temporary chairman will be to deliver
a speech which will voice the general
party policies, and will be what is i
popularly termed a "key-note" speech
