Chicago, July 28. Delegates to
the national convention of the In
dependence party spent the morning
about the headquarters or seeing
the sights of the city, and resumed
the sessions at 2 o'clock this after
noon, when the report of the reso
lutions committee was made by
Chairman Howard S. Taylor of
Chicago.
There Is much talk of Charles F. S.
Neal of Indiana as the vice-presidential
nominee. He was one of the most ac
tlve Hearst workers in Indiana in 1904
and lives at Lebanon, In tiiat state,
though he conducts his business in Chi
cago.
Though there Is still a large number
of candidates, It seems to be generally
be leved that Thomas L. Hlsgen will
receive the presidential nomination.

night and his attacks upon the two
established parties wus the sub.'ect of

the delegates pialslng In highest terms

Muring last night's session the fol
lowing Hearst slogans were much In
evidence :
"The Democratic machine, the pluto
poker chip, the Republican machine, the
dollar, pass current at the same coun
ter." "New Jersey: The home of the trusts;
wants to smash 'em."
"Indiana wants a new deal with a
clean deck."
Oregon "No Chicago steam-roller; no
Denver rock-rrusher."
Rhode Island "Aldr4ch owns the sen
ate; we want the people to own both."
The entrance of George "W. McCns-
kerln, whom the Illinois delegates are
supporting for the gubernatorial nom
ination, was a signal for cheers "for
the next governor of Illinois," last
night

San Francisco, July IS. Word has
been received by the law department of
the Southern Pacific company here that
the interstate commerce commission
has ordered postponed the new rate on
lumber shipments from Willamette

become effective on August 15, hut the

Tho Hague, July 28. Interference by
the Dutch Socialists may prevent a
declaration of war against Venezuela by
the Netherlands government.
The Socialists threaten a revolt as
tho result of their objection to the
Oregon's Republican leaders, of the
Republican faction, do not want Wil
liam SI. Cake to retain his place as the
head of tho. state central committee.
They want him to get down and out
nnd let them tnke hold of the reins,
the rudder and nil the other guiding
apparatus of tho Republican ship of
state In thin neck of the woods, and
try to give William 11. Taft a majority
of 30,000 votes or more In November.
If they do not ret their nanus on
the throttle of the.macbj.ua hcy con
tend that It Is very probable that four
men will go back to the electoral col
lego pledged to vote for William Jen
nings Bryan Instead of for William
Howard Taft.
Consequent to this feeling, If Mr.
Coke does not resign and get out of
the v:iy peacefully, the gathering clans
will ariso In their might and hurl him
bodily out of tho camp and Into the
outor darkness of political oblivion.
That's the way it Is going to be, ac
cording to tho prophets who contend
that they have a second sight on things
poll tical.
Demand Caie's Resignation.
Mr. Cake has attended the national
conference of state chairmen, and he
has conu hack empty-handed and badly
badgered bv those of the stalwarts who
demanded of him why things are as
they are in Oregon. Now he has gone
again to the east, leaving instructions
that a meeting of the state committee
be called t he first Tuesday In September
for the purpose of mapping out the
plans for tho presidential campaign.
Something Is golnx to pop before that
time because the report hs filtered back
that Mr. Cake is to meet Senator Bourne

Sen;or Bourne nnd the Cake brothers
are close together. The election of Taft
Is a boost for Fulton. A big Taft ma
iorltv is argued to be a knock at Cake.
Therefore, the boomers argue, Cake has
no heart In tho t.isk of managing a
Taft campaign. They don't believe that
tho stare chairman would be pleased
with a big Taft majority. Therefore
thev look with great displeasure on the
prof-oecis of Bourne money being spent
by ( ' ik.. to ele. i Taft.
A still, s'r.all howl, hut a growing
one, Is being sent up from all over the
state, though It sprang from Multnomah

Mr. Cake abdicate. It Is being urged
that time Is flying and that the Tftft
battlements ought to be put up and
manned long before the first Tuesday

Accordingly It Is being urged that a
meeting of the state committee should
be held in t!ie near future nnd that at
that time Mr. Cake ought to pack up
his duds ami gn. leaving tho way clear
for the election of sonic man known to
b "safe" who would pick up the Taft

It is very probable that the meeting

Constantinople, July 28. As a climax
of the most remarkable scries of kal
eaidoscoplc revolutionary chanses In
the history of Turkey that have suc
ceeded each other in rapid succession
during the past two weeks, Sultan Ab
dul Hamid II Issued nn Imperial Irade
today that changes the entire social
existence of tho Imperial family In con
formity with the reforms recently
granted to his subjects.
Henceforth Abdul Hamid, no longer
despotic ruier of an absolute despotism
but constitutional monarch bv his own
declaration of Friday, will live the life
of a democratic monarch who depends
on tho good will of the people for his
power.
Tho Irade Issued today declares offi
cially that Abdul, who has been a self
imposed prisoner In the imperial palace
tor iiio past L'l years, will Henceforth
appear on the streets like any
"citizen" of Turkey.
No less sweeping In its revolution
ary aspect is the second decree of tin)
irade. which announces that henceforth
princesses of the imperial family must
observe monogamy. Thev will not be
compelled or allowed to be simply the
chief of a hnrem, but must be queen In
their household.
Tho sultan has long been known to
fret' under the bondage Imposed on him
by the customs of his country and Is
Fald today to be the happiest man in all

The entire countrv Is amazed at the

"Safe government," as opposed to rad

election of Mr. Taft would mean that
the principles advocated by Theodora
.Roosevelt as President would continue
to be urged until they ultimately become
the law and settled policy of the United
States. Reduction of the tariff waa aa-
vucated. and attention directed to the
plans suggested by Mr. Bryan for con
