(Cnlt.d rreat UaeM Wlre.t
Chlrago, Aug. 7. In nominating Col
onel Roosevelt for president at the na
tional Progressive convention here,
William A. Prendcrgast. controller of
the city of New Tork. said In part:
"This great gathering owes lta being
to a mighty protest against those who
have tried to. poison the wells of de
mocracy. Appreciating the stupendous
task before It, the Progressive party de
cline' to- accept the cynical doctrine of
Napoleon that good Is on the side of
the heaviest battalions, and it pro
teases sublime - faith In the teaching
of Abraham Lincoln tnat 'right makes
might. .
"My candidate Is more than a rlttsen.
He is a national asset. In thla mo
mentous period of political doubt there
la no man. who preaenta aueh credentials
aa his. This candidate baa success
written' In every page of his official
caj-eer. He haa fought the most vicious
forces, in American life and conquered
them. He aurrendered the presidency
In the hope that other hands would
prosecute successfully what he had not
the time to finish. That task baa been
treated with Intermittent loyalty and
largely left undone.
"My candidate represents the most
striking and eventful ctvto career In
American history. He la one whose
originality of thought and directness of
action-haa made him a unique figure.
He' baa touched every duty. With the
gold of conscientious service and es
tablished a reputation that haa chal
lenged the applause of the public."
Reviewing Colonel Roosevelt's career,
Prendergast said:
"While others talked be acted. Where
the Interests of the people were menaced
ha baa known no fear and asked no
quarter. None haa been ao powerful aa
to awe him and before him the greatest
raptalna of Industry have lowered their
lanres. He ia the only man In public

pledged themselves to God and countrv
so do we consecrate our lives to a serv

"Aa the leader of this crusade, I pre

In aecondlng the nomination of Roose-

"When, six weeka ago, the discarded
national Republican committee, as Its
last errecttve act on earth, defraurli-d
the Republican party of the right to be
