The lie was passed for rhe first time in
a sharp clash between Francis .1. He
ney, the Roosevelt leader, and a Colo
rado committeeman over tin gag rule.
Heney asserted the gag rule prevailed
In Colorado. This was denounced as
false by Committeeman T. 11. Devine.
While the Oklahoma contest wa.s on
It became evident that the Roosevelt
men were getting ready for a relent
less pursuit, of contested delegates
when two lawyers appeared in the com
mittee on proxies. Judge Milton Pur
doe, of Minneapolis, sat on T, Coleman
Dupont's proxy, and Theodore Joslyn,
of Michigan, on the proxy of G. A.
Knight, of California These men were
on their feet much of the time, making
pertinent questions. They brought out
a. good deal of valuable evidence for
the Roosevelt side of the dispute. A. M.
Stevenson, of Colorado, one of the Taft
leaders, entered a protest.
“I want to protest against this cross
examination," he said. His protest was
not pressed when A. L. Vorys, of tthlo,
another Taft man, broke in with ques-'
tlons.
A question of the truth of the slate
ments On both sides arose, when Sena
tor Borah said:
"This seems to boa question of ve
racity." -*■
Ormsby McHarg arose to answer it,
but Stevenson, of Colorado, protested.
”1 don't want any more speeches." he
said.
Lie Passed
To Heney.
"Don't you know." shouted Francis P.
Heney, as Rosewater beat splinters out
of his gavel block, "that the gag rule
goes in Colorado?"
"1 deny the truth of that statement.''
ME ATLANTA GEORGIAN AND NEWS. THURSDAY. JUNE 13. 1912
shouted Committeeman Devine, of Col
orado. "It is not true, and the state
ment is an insult to 'my state.”
Attorney Joslyn asked Judge Gill If.
because of bad blood, the Oklahoma
contestants would be unable to meet in
harmony.
"No, sir," shouted Gill "Nd matter
what the result here may ho, when we
go back home we will be just as good
friends as ever." He was roundly ap
plauded.
Saunders moved to seat the Taft
men.• whereupon Senator Borah pre
sented a substitute motion to seat the
Roosevelt men. He asked for an aye
and nay Vote, but the steam roller de
nied him the right. His substitute mo
tion was lost.
When the original motion was put
Honey arose and said: "Mr. Chair
man, the Roosevelt men protest against
Grant Victor, of Montana, voting in
this case, because he worked up the
contest, and it would not be fair for
him to vote here.”
"Vote! Vote!" cried many of the com
mittee.
A viva voce vote resulted in the seat
ing of the two Taft men.
Dispute Between
Taft Men Only.
The First district of South Carolina
then was called. In this case it was a
matter of dispute between the Taft del
egations, the Roosevelt element not en
tering into the question, Thomas G.
Grant ami Aaron P. Prioleau were the
regular or Taft men. They claimed
regularity and insisted that the conven
tion which elected E. M. English and
M. H Houston whs a bolting conven
tion. In this state Roosevelt claims
twelve delegate , and Taft is given
, credit for but four.
The two regular Taft men were seat
ed, although an attempt-was made to
get one man a seat who Is known to
have Roosevelt tendencies. This move
was made on an amended motion, and
was lost, a roll call not being allowed.
A contest over the de legates-at-large
from Tennessee was then taken up
This contest involved only Taft men.

Roosevelt having no contending dele
gates.
The Tennessee delegate-at--large
cohtest was temporarily passed over,
and the First district contest taken
up. Test mer. were seatpd in the First
district.
The Roosevelt element did not enter
into the First Tennessee district, ex
cept as the organization leaders feared
that if the contesting Taft men were
seated they might flop to Roosevelt.
This action made Taft's total of dele
gates won 165, though only 161 were
taken directly from Roosevelt
When the Second district of Tennes
see was called, the Tafl-Roosevelt
proposition bobbed up. J. B. Lindsay,
one of the Roosevelt pre
sented his side of the case, reciting
the strife of the
and Brownlow-Austin factions. He
SUMMER COLDS COME
FROM A TORPID LIVER
An Active Liver Keeps the Head Clear,
the Eyes Bright and the Smile Cheerful.
When the Liver Gets Lazy,
the Blood Thickens and
the System Becomes Easily
Susceptible to Cold and
Disease.
The summer cold is directly traceable to an
inactive liver. You get overheated and cool off'
too suddenly; the pores of the skin become
closed, the blood recedes from the surface of the
body and a congestion is produced. The same
condition follows when you sit in a draft, or get
charged that the latter faction in this
case had no legal basis for approval
by the committee.
T. A. Wright and John J. Jennings.
Taft delegates for the Second Tennes
see district, were seated by a viva voce
vote. This made Taft’s total gain from
Roosevelt 163 or four for the day.
The contest Involving two delegates
from the Ninth Tennessee district was
next called. There the Roosevelt dele
gates, State Treasurer G. Taylor and
Colonel W. F. Poston, sought the seats
of John W. Brown and John D. Tar
rant, who were elected by the
Taft convention. The two Taft dele
gates were seated, making the
dent's total 165, or six for the day.
Committee in Panic
Says T. R. Fighter.
Roosevelt and Taft .leaders held se-
cret conferences today preceding the
session of the Republican national
committee. There were reports of im
pending sensational developments, but
the source of these had not been di
vulged up to the time the committee
resumed its labors at 9:20 o'clock.
The first contest considered was that
of the Third Oklahoma district. Orms
by McHarg. the Roosevelt champion,
was a happy man when the committee
assembled. He said:
"The national committee adjourned
in a panic on Thursday. They met a
hard bump in the Missouri eases and
It stopped them. I have said all along
that they would not go through with
their program, and I say now that they
lack physical and moral courage to do
it. There are no more compromises in
sight. We will fight every one of our
cases to the end.”
Vrt. The liver finds its effort overcome by pres
sure of the blood, and food remains in the stom
ach or bowels. The head gets hot, the feet cold
and the bowels constipated. Right then and there
is the danger point. The bowels must, he kept
open. The system must he relieved of congestion.
JACOBS’ LIVER SALT is the greatest known
relief. It is better than calomel. It will rejuv
