CONVENTION HALU Chicago. June
K. (Special.) "Love feast" Is the prop
er term to apply to the conference to
day between the Republican and the
Progressive delegations from Orgon
They are all for harmony, and lots
of it.
When the Republican delegation met
this morning. National Committeeman
Ralph E. Williams suggested, and the
Oregon delegation agreed, that the Pro
gressive delegates should receive seats
Id the Republican convention, as alter
nates, along with those of the defeated
candidates who are In the city. In
turn, the Progressives went the Repub
licans one better, and through National
Committeeman Williams invited the
Republican delegation to sit as full
fledged delegates in the Progressive
convention. Mr. Williams received five
Progressive delegate tickets and badges
to be distributed among the Republi
cans.
"Progressives Would Accept Hughea
Dr. H. W. Coo and A. B. Clark, two of
the Progressives now here, are in a
most genial frame of mind; they are
looking forward to a reunion of the
Republican and Progressive forces. Mr.
Clark, speaking tonight of the situa
tion, said the Progressives could and
would accept Hughes if he will make
a satisfactory declaration of his stand
on the big issues advocated by Colonel
Roosevelt. If Hughes will make such
a declaration, Mr. Clark believes the
Progressive convention will indorse his
nomination and adjourn. But the dec
laration, he said, is regarded by Pro
frresslves as essential to their indorse
irvent and support.
Mr. Clark said that, personally, he
would gladly support Hughes if he
makes the- all-essential declaration, or
if someone authorized to speak for him
will declare Hughes' position. It was
the opinion of Dr. Coe and Mr. Clark
that Hughes must declare himself in
advance of nomination else the Pro
gressives will surely nominate Roose
velt. Roosevelt Withdrawal Possible.
"What will the Progressives do If
Hughes is nominated but makes no
declaration until he formally accepts
the Republican nomination, probably a
month hence?" was asked.
"That." replied Mr. Clark, "will be
entirely up to the Progressive nominee.
It will be for him to say whether or
not he will withdraw and support
Hughes."
This statement from Mr. Clark is in
line with the prevailing understanding
of the Progressive attitude generally.
But it also is strongly hinted that
though the Progressives may nominate
Roosevelt, they, under the Colonel's
leadership,' will unite with the Repub
, licans in support of Hughes if Hughes
comes out strongly for preparedness.
and for the upholding of American
rights. Colonel Roosevelt, it is said by
Progressives of prominence, if nomi
nated by the Progressive convention,
will withdraw and declare for Hughes
if the Hughes speech of acceptance is
satisfactory to him.
Vote for Webster Insisted On.
Charlie Lockwood, of Portland, ap
peared on the scene today. He is an
interested onlooker.
When the Oregon delegation met to
organize this morning, the suggestion
was advanced that a resolution be
adopted declaring it the purpose of
the delegates to overlook the fact that
one William Grant Webster, of Chicago,
had received Oregon's indorsement for
the Vice-Presidential nomination. The
idea was suggested in view of the fact
that Webster and his candidacy are not
taken seriously, and that the Oregon
delegation would make itself ridiculous
by presenting his name In a city where
he is known as a perpetual candidate.
Clarence Hotchkiss, however, raised
instant objection, declaring he intended
to vote for Webster and carry out his
. instructions, no matter how Webster
might be regarded in his native city.
Albert Abraham also indicated his pur
pose to vote for Webster. In view of
the dissension, the formal resolution
was not presented.

HOW TO GET RID OF
CATARRH
If you have catarrh, catarrhal
deafness, or head noises go to
your druggist and get 1 oz. Par
mint (double strength), take this
home, add to it M pint of hot
water and 4 oz. of granulated
sugar. Take 1 tablespoonful 4
times a day.
This will often bring quick re
lief from the distressing head
noises. Clogged nostrils should
open, breathing becomes easy and
the mucous stop dropping into
the throat.
It is easy to make, tastes pleas
ant and costs little. Every one
who has catarrh should give this
treatment a trial. You will
probably find it just what you
need.

London Dailies Have Staff Men at Chicago to Send 50 or 75 Words a Day.
"Uncle Joe" Cannon Says Republicans Could Do Worse Than Nominate
Him Pacifists See Light. -
CHICAGO. June 5. (Special.) Two
of the great London dailies have
sent staff men to the Republican
convention, to cover special features in
connection with the service they secure
through New York and Chicago con
nections. The expenses of these men,
aside from the transportation over and
back, will run about 20 a day each.
One of them sends an average of 60
words and the other, evidently a
plunger, loads down the cable with io
words every night. If their papers do
not go broke, they will repeat this per
formance at tbe St. Louis convention.
One of the features of the convention
is furnished by a local German daily
paper, which has two Irish reporters
writing the report of the proceedings
in English. After the space is filled
the stories end with fine disregard of
what comes after that time. mere
is little "over set" on a German paper.
It Is strictly verboten. . .
"Uncle Joe" Cannon, always the most
picturesque figure of the Republican
National Convention, arrived today, his
big black cigar tilted at an especially
truculent and devilish angle.' After
skirmishing around for some tickets
for his friends and shaking hands with
something less than a million peo'ple.
he gave utterance to this sentiment:
"I don t know whom the convention
will nominate, but It could do a d d
sight worse than to pick me."
Edward Randolph Wood, who came
to Chicago from Pennsylvania to urge
pacifism and who might have been
induced to run for f resident on a
peace platform, is a changed man. He
witnessed the great preparedness pa
rade and it altered his views radically.
Now he Is strong for preparedness and
a standing army of 250,000 and a naval
programme that will make this country
second among the world powers. He
speedily discovered that a peace propa
ganda has -slim picking in Chicago,

for Roosevelt, who, she insists, is
man of destiny; a leader -not to be
questioned, but followed. She said
"You know I've been working In the

months or more. Well, every soldier
for whom I have been buying wooden
arms and legs, every foreigner tells me
that if we only had T. R. in Washing'

Isaiah T. Montgomery, slave and body
servant of Jefferson Davis during the
Civil War, late founder of the city of
Mound Bayou. Miss., and now a dele'
gate to the Republican National con
vention, and George L. Knox, founder
of the Freeman, will be guests of honor
at a reception tomorrow night at the
Phyllis Wheatley Home, at which
Roosevelt made public today a letter he
received from W. F. Zierath, counsellor
of the State Medical Society of Wlscon
sin, in which the latterr who said he
was of German descent and a Demo
crat, urged the Colonel, If not nominat
ed by the Republicans, to be standard
bearer of an independent' party an
American party."
Zierath said he bad never voted for
Colonel Roosevelt, but hoped to have
that pleasure, adding:
"Your firm stand against the hyphen
is not going to lose you votes.
"You observe my name is German,
Zierath's letter read In part. "I have
Teutonic blood in my veins and am
glad and proud of It, but for all that I
am an American.
"If you. or anyone else, believe that
American-born Germans of this coun
try, acting through any German-American
Alliance, are the spokesman of the
Americans of German descent in this
country, I want to say that they are
sadly misinformed or malicious liars.
Americans of Uerman descent are
going to vote for you and. take it from
me, even they will be surprised at the
vote for you in their own communl
ties."
Colonel Roosevelt. In his reply to Mr.
Zierath, said:
. "I am certain that the great bulk
of Americans of German descent feel
as you say they feel, and that is as
straight-out Americans.

An interesting phase of the harmony
programme of Progressives and the
Republicans of Oregon was disclosed
during the day. The 10 Republican
delegates to the convention in the
Coliseum have appointed 10 Progres
sives, five of whom are Progressive
delegates, as their alternates. The five
Progressive delegates have duplicated
this courtesy and appointed five of the
Republican delegates as their alter
nates. This co-operation Is further
amplified in the appointment of Charles
W. Ackerson. a Progressive delegate, as
deputy sergeant-at-arms In the Repub
lican convention.
