And, If the Roosevelt men try to hold a second convention in the hall, the Taft men say, the Roosevelt delegates would be relieved of the Instructions and could vote for Taft on the first ballot. Colonel Roosevelt himself was the center of great activity today. Many delegates were escorted to his parlors prior to the public recep tion nnd had a word privately with him. So great was the jam In and near his rooms that many of the visi tors had to puff pantlngly up and down the stairs. Negroes Stick to Taft The Taft headquarters were also the Mecca of mony visitors.

Charles M. , Anderson presided and stated that the ordinance that had been drawn up was considered by the Trades and Labor Council Friday night, and had been endorsed by them.

Goes to City Council. Letters were read from City Attor ney Page and Mayor Lachmund, en dorsing the efforts made to secure a larger employment of home laborers. Mayor Lachnymd wrote that he had ordered the city attorney to embody the home lubor clause of the city charter In all future contracts for public work, and that the new sewer contracts being closed up this week contained those clauses. In spite of these efforts the labor leaders will press the passage of the ordinance with the $500 penalty clause. There are a number of public con tracts being carried on In Salem at present with contract and alien la bor, nearly all of whom are non-residents.
