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

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
