KENTUCKY.
Seventh District.
Id the Seventh Kentucky district the
total rote of the convention was 115.
There were contests from four coun
ties. Involving ninety-Axe votes. Ac
cording to the rules of the party Id
Kentucky, where two scats of creden
tials sre presented those delegate
whose credentials are approved by the
county chairman are entitled to par
tlclpate in the temporary organisation.
On the temporary roll the Taft chair
man was elected by ninety-eight votes
and forty -seven votes were cast for the
Roosevelt candidate. The committee
on credentials was then appointed, con
sisting of one member named by each
county delegation. The majority re
port of the committee was adopted
unanimously by the convention, no del
egation whose seats were contested
being permitted to rote on Its own
case. As soon as the majority report
of the credentials committee bad been
adopted, the Roosevelt adhereuts bolt
ed. There was not the slightest reason
for sustaining the contest for Roosevelt
delegates.
Eighth District.
The Eighth Kentucky district was
composed of ten comities having 1(3
rotes, of which eighty-two were neces
sary to choice. There was no con
test In five of the counties, and al
though the Roosevelt men claimed that
there was one In Spencer county no
contest was presented against the
seating of the regularly elected Taft
delegates from that county. This gave
the Taft delegates eighty-four rotes, or
two more than were necessary for a
choice. In other words, assuming that
the Roosevelt men were entitled to all
the delegates from the counties in
which they flled contests In the dis
trict convention there remained a clear
majority of uncontested delegates who
voted for the Taft delegates to Chi
cago. OKLAHOMA.
, Third District.
In the Third Oklahoma district the
question of the validity of the seata of
the delegates turned on the constitu
tion of the congressional committee,
which was made up of twelve Taft
men and seven Roosevelt men. The
chairman. Cochran, was a Roosevelt
man and attempted to prevent the ma
jority of the committee from taking
action. The chairman was removed
and another substituted, and thereupon
the convention was duly called to order
on the temporary roil prepared by the
congressional committee, which was
made the permanent roll, and the two
Taft delegates to Chicago were duly
selected. Every county In the district
had its representation and vote in the
regular convention, and no person
properly accredited as a delegate was
deluded or debarred from participat
ing in its proceedings. Cochran and
lis followers bolted after his deposi
tion. Assuming that all the committee
who went out with him bad the tight
to act on the committee, it left the
committee standing twelve for Taft
and seven for Roosevelt, so it was sim
ply question whether a majority of
the committee had the right to control
Its action or a minority. The bolting
convention which Cochran held was
Hot attended by a majority of the duly
elected delegates to the convention. It
did not have the credentials from the
.various counties, and its membership
Was largely made up of bystanders
who bad not been duly accredited by
any county In the district Its' action
Was entirely without authority.
TENNESSEE,
i Sscond District.
In the - Second Tennessee district
there were fifty-nine delegates uncon
tested out of a possible total of 108 In '
the convention. There were forty-nine
contested. The Roosevelt contestants
In the forty-nine refused to abide the
decision of the committee on creden
tials and withdrew, -leaving fifty-nine
Uncontested delegates. These fifty
sine delegates, part of whom were
Roosevelt men, remained in the con
vention, appointed the proper commit
tees, settled contests and proceeded to
(elect, Taft delegates. There can be
no question about the validity there
fore of their title.
TEXAS.
! Hrst District.
The only remaining districts are the
nine districts from Teias. Of these the
First district was composed of eleven
counties, each county having one vote,
except Cass county, which had two.
The executive committee, composed of
one representative from each county,
made up the temporary roll, and in the
contests filed from two counties seat
ed both delegates with one-half vote
each. The convention elected the two
Taft delegates, giving them ten and
one-quarter votes. Each county was
represented In this vote. A minority
representing one and three-quarters
Totes bolted the regular convention
and held a. rump meeting. The na
tional committee by unanimous tote
decided the contest In favor of 'the ,
Taft delegate.
Second District.
In the Second Texas district there
were fourteen counties. Two counties
Were found not to have held conven
tions and one comity to have no dele
gate present The convention was
then constituted by the delegations
that held regular credentials. The re
port of the committee on credentials
was accepted upon roll call, and then
the representatives of five counties
withdrew from the hall. The repre
sentatives of four of these counties
teld a rump convention. The regular
convention remained in session several
tours, appointed the usual committees,
which retired and made their reports,
which were accepted, and elected two
Taft delegates to the national conven
tion and certified their election in due
f.rra to the national committee, which
without division asked for, held thout
pre-tcrly elected. . ,
Fourth District.
The Fourth Texas district; consist,
of five counties, each having one roe
In the district convention under tte
call. One county. Rains, chose an uncon
tested delegation, and that oue was for
Taft The other four comities sent
contesting delegations. The contest
ing delegations apioared before the
cougressloual executive committee to
present their claims, but the commit
tee arbitrarily refused to hear any
body. Having exhausted every effort
to secure a bearing, the four contest
ing delegations, together with the only
uncontested delegation of the conven
tion, withdrew to another place and
beld a convention and elected Taft
delegates to the Chicago convention.
The congressional convention which
elected the Taft delegates was com
posed of more than a majority, and.
Indeed, of practically all the regularly
elected delegates. The national com
mittee held the title of the Taft dele
gates to their seats valid by viva roc
vote without calling for a division.
Fifth District
The Fifth district of Texas Is com
posed of Dallas, Ellis, Hill, Bosque
and Rockwall counties. Dallas couuty
cast more Republican votes than all
the other counties of the district put
together. The call for the congres
sional convention allowed each county
to send not to exceed four delegates,
but made no reference to the basis of
representation of the respective conn
ties composlug the district There
was a coutest from Dallas county, but
the Taft delegates were seated. Taft
delegates were seated on the temporary
roll from two counties, and Roosevelt
delegates from the three counties, and
the representation in the convention
was fixed at one rote for each count;
without regard to the number of dele
gates in the convention or the num
ber of Republican rotes cast In such
county. A minority report of the dis
trict committee was presented, protest
log against the ratio of' representa
tion adopted. The chairman of the
convention objected to the presenta
tion of this minority report Failing
In this he abandoned the platform and
left the halt
The convention thereupon elected a
new chairman and a new secretary, ap
pointed a committee on credentials,
which recommended the seating of the
Taft delegates from Hill county and
the adoption of the minority report of
the district committee as to the basis
of the representation in the convention.
Both these recommendations were
adopted, and Taft delegates to the na
tional convention were thereupon elect
ed by a rote of eight to three. The
Roosevelt men thereafter retired to the
south end of the ball, where they or
ganized a meeting at which It was
claimed the Roosevelt delegates to the
national convention were elected. The
Republican vote for the district for
1903 was as follows: Dallas county,
2,068; Ellis, 694: Hill, 414; Bosque. 260;
Rockwall, 3S. Both the national com
mittee and the committee on creden
tials sustained the Taft delegates.
Ssvsnth District
The Seventh congressional district of
Texas is composed of the following
counties: Anderson, Chambers, Gal
veston, Houston, Liberty, Polk, San Ja
cinto and Trinity. Polk, San Jacinto
and Trinity were without proper party
organization. In Texas county chair
men must be elected by the voters in
each party. No such election was beld
In any of these three counties. In two
of them Colonel Lyon assumed to ap
point chairmen, which he had no right
to do. Lyon himself bad classed these
three counties as unorganized and with
out party organization.
The convention met In Galveston.
The executive committee met prior to
the meeting of the convention to make
np the temporary roll of delegates. The
executive committee bad before It the
question of having the three unorgan
ized counties represented in the con
vention. The executive committee re
fused to recognize them. When this
action was taken by the executive com
mittee a delegate from Houston county
and the alleged representatives from
the three unorganized counties with
drew from the meeting and proceeded
to organize another convention, and
npon this is based the contest, which
was rejected by both committees, the
national committee and the credentials
committee.
Eighth District.
In the Eighth congressional conven
tion a split occurred over the majority
and minority reports of the executive
committee as to the temporary roll.
The Roosevelt followers controlled the
executive committee, but did not have
a majority in the convention, which
adopted the minority report and gave
Taft five and one-half votes and Roose
velt two and one-half votes. This re
sulted In the election of the Taft dele
gates, who were seated by both the
national committee and the credentials
committee.
Ninth District
In the Ninth district the district
committee was called by Mr. Speaker,
a member of the committee, and not by
the chairman. The chairman refused
to convene the committee because he
claimed that all the delegates from
Texas to the national convention must
be elected in the state convention, that
Colonel Lyon, his superior, had thus
directed him. The district committee
was called. Seven members attended
the meeting. The district convention
was called on May 15. Eleven counties
out of the fifteen responded to the call
and took part in the convention. Three
counties were not represented, and In
one of these there was no election.
After this convention had been called
the cbulrman of 'doe district committee
changed his mind and rH"cd a meet
ing of the committee for April 17.
I'lils committee called a cnhgressl.vmil
.intention to I he'd ou Mii.v IS. Hut
iiiere whs tin pnblli iilion of- the call,
otil. h had to tie thirty dn. Itefnre the
invention, until April SI. The Taft
convention seems therefore to have
tieen duly and regularly convened,
while the Roosevelt convention was
uot The Taft delegate were seated.
Tenth District,
In the Tenth district the decision
turned largely uin the had faith with
which two uienitiers of the district
coniuitttc voted In the scntlng of dele
gate aud upon the bad faith with
which oue of them used the proxy In
trusted to him. The Taft delegntea In
this rase bolter' and left the hall and
immediately In the same building or
ganised another convention which con
sisted of delegates from six counties.
Proceedings were regularly held: a per
manent organisation effected, the re
port of the committee on resolutions
adopted aud delegates pledged to Taft
were elected. The undisputed evidence
Indicated that a flagrant attempt had
been made to deprive Taft of this dis
trict to which be was Justly entitled.
The national committee sustained the
title of the Taft delegates aud alter
nates by a practically uuauliuous rote.
Fourteenth District
In the Fourteenth district there were
fifteen counties In the district . When
the executive committee wet at San
Antonio to make up the temporary roll
there were ten tuvuiber of the com
mittee preseut whose right to act was
undisputed, of whom six were for Taft
aud four for Roosevelt There were
four other Roosevelt men preseut
whose right to rote was disputed aud
who were clearly not entitled to repre
sent their couuty at that meeting. One
of them held the proxy of the commit
teeman from Kendall county, who was
dead, aud the proxies from three other
counties were beld, two by post mas
ters and oue by an assistant postmas
ter, while under the election law of
Texas no oue who holds an otlice of
profit or trust under the 1' lilted State
shall act as a member of an executive
committee either for the state or for
any district or couuty. The temporary
roll was made up by Taft members,
having a clear majority without per
mitting these men to act under their,
proxies. There was a coutest over the
delegation from lieinr county, which
contains the city of San Antonio. Full
consideration waa given to this contest.
but the testimony was overwhelming
that Taft carried the county by a rote
of four or five to one. On the proper
basis the total rote in the district con
vention was sixty-seven, of which the
number instructed or voting for Taft
waa thirty-seven and one-half, the
number voting or instructed for Roose
velt twenty-eight and one-half, not vot
ing one. The Taft delegation waa
therefore seated at Chicago.
CONCLUSION.
The purpose of this resume of the
contest In wbicb there was any shad
ow of substance has been to inform
those who bare not time or Inclination
to read the longer and more detailed
account of them contained ift the larger
pamphlet It 1 not essentlial to make
Mr. Taft'a title Indisputable that all
men agree on every one of the issue
raised. Tbey were decided by the tri
bunal which uniform party usage bad
made the proper tribunals to decide
such contests. If those tribunals acted
In good faith mistaken Judgment would
not Invalidate their decisions. As a
matter of fact an examination of the
facts show that the tribunals were
right in every instance. There Is not
the slightest evidence that they were
moved by other than a mere desire to
reach a right conclusion. On the other
band, the action of the Roosevelt men
in bringing 100 contests that tbey
promptly abandoned strongly teuded
to show the lack of good faith In the
prosecution of all of them. Those who
support President Taft can well afford
to stand on the record in this case and
to asseverate without fear of success
ful contradiction that the delegates
whose seats were contested were as
fairly seated In this convention as in
any ia the history of the party.

Gam Found In Feldspar.
In a number of the feldspar quar
ries garuets. green tourmulinea and
uiiiauiurtues (beryl! of gem quality
are found, but seldom In such quantity
as to warrant mining for the gems
alone. Mr. llastln mentions a feld
spar quarry In Connecticut where
some of the cavities that yielded gem
tourmalines were as large as a bushel
basket. At another quarry in the state
i large transparent green tourmaline
about seven Inches long was found.
This atone is now In the museum of
the Wesleyan university, at Middle
town, Conn. One pocket In the same
quarry contained a large crystal
weighing several pounds of pale blue
to pale green color, the tint being
similar to those observed In some
aquamarines. Unfortunately this crys
tal wa much shattered in the blast
ing, but the fragments bare yielded a
number of small cut gems of great
beauty. Geological Survey Report
Largest af Flowsr.
The largest of all the flowers of the
world Is said to be the rnffesla, a na

Stamford Rattles. This Immense plant
Is composed of five round petals of a
brlcklsb color, each measuring a foot
across. These are covered with numer
ous Irregular yellowish white swell
ings. The petals surround a cup near
ly a foot wtde. the margin of which
bears the stamens. The cup of the
rnffesla Is Blled with a fleshy disk, the
upper surface of which is covered with
projections like miniature cows' horns,
'the cup when free from Its coutents
will bold about twelve pints. The
flower weighs about fifteen pounds
and Is very thick, the petals being
three-quarters of an Inch.
Rubbsr Substitutes.
In an effort to And a cheap substi
tute for rubber Interesting experiment
have been made with two bituminous
minerals, elaterlte and tabbylte. Ma
terial very similar to rubber can be
produced, for which good wearing
qualities are claimed when used In au
tomobile tires anf elsewhere. During
the year 1909 other varieties of blttr

were discovered. One of these, known
as wteilgerite, la a soft moist mate

Novel Use For Old Rails..
A novel use has been found for old
steel rails In building the telephone
line along the railroad In the iathmus
of Panama. Set upright In concrete:
Icises, these rails have been found cx
j illcnt for use as telephone poles, and
many of them are now doing duty in a
climate whpre the ordinary wooden
poles would be Impracticable on ac
count of the ravages of tropical Insects,
The concrete prevents rusting at the
dime and provides such good support
as to render unnecessary the uso of
bracing or guy wires.

Iron ' or steol may be made rust
