Wall Street, Having Dictated Chairman of Republican Convention, Tries to Repeat at Baltimore
LEWIS SEES AMMUNITION FOR ROOSEVELT IN THE CHOICE OF PARKER
Progressives Informally
Decl are for Ollie
James as Keynoter:
Will Not Stand for
New York Judge.
By ALFRED HENRY LEWIS.
BALTIMORE. June 24.- This is true
talk. For which reason it should be
.put in print and «m regard. It
chanced that 1 was present where
roundly twenty men were gathered to
gether. AH of them were Democrats.
■ ® all of them 'progressive." all of them
J', of leadership sizes.
> ®. The meeting was Causal; it hadn’t
been ''called.'' The men weir various-
t Ij front Colorado, froth Kentucky. from
, the Dakotas, from New York, from
L Georgia, from Arizona, from xlalianci,
y, from Nebraska, from Oregon, from
sw every angle of the party, from every
jJL. corner of the country. Most of them
i were delegates who .will sit In tomor
row's convention. Many of them hold
high offices in the nation or th ir sex-
L, eral states.
fi. While the meeting was t hanre-sown.
the one subject considered was poli
tic* —the coming convention —Dentoi-
i, racy—chances in November. Most of
■; U, all. Parker for temporary chairman wits
considered Bryan's objections to Park
er were by some regretted, by other
resented, by a few denounced and by a
111. few approved. In each instance the
argument was the same The Bryan
vb.tctions were regretted or denounced
for the reason not that any one present
believed the choice of Parker a good
’ll. on.—f° r non,> but that in making
his objections Bryan assumed a lend
fiship of party which non? present w.c
ready to consider. Bryan among the
tw< nty present had friends, hut no fol
lowers.
Talk Turns to Parker.
Having delivered themselves con
cerning Bryan and his evident efforts
to trouble the waters for peanut ami
personal ends, the gathered twenty took
up Parker and that temporary chair
manship. Let me tell the tale in <pms
tlon and answer fashion. Some one
s'K, would put the query and others'would
. . reply to it
Who suggested Parker? Mack, of
New Yotk.
Who was Mack.’ Was he acting for
himself or others or both'' Mack top -
resented New York state on the Detno
cratic national committee. This was
by consent and preference of Murphy
and Tammany Hall. Wanting the fa
i. xor of Murphy and Tammany. Mack
ig ” as national committeeman wouldn't
last as long as a nint of whisky at a
barn raising. The Patket suggestion
coming through Mack was really made
by Murphy and Tammany Hall
Why should Murphy want Parke! '
Mote a dozen spoke at nnce Murphy
wk,-.. Iff the sense personal didn't care a
SS splinter for Parker. While Murphy told
Mack what lodo, those behind Murph'
p told him what to do. '
And who were those behind Murphy".''
Those men who made up the Murphy
mind and settled the Murphy prefer
ences. and through Murphy, and next
through Mack, in the selection of Park
er. purposed striking the keynote of |
t Democracy in the coming campaign.
How the Talk Ran.
Wall Street controls Murphy just a-
I' controls Banes. Wall Street want'' .
ISA Root as chairman over the Reptibll- '
■R cans. Wall Street wants Parker a
chairman over the Democrats Thin
Is absolutely no teal difference between
IKg,' Root and Packet Both are \ e-\ alm
lis. lawyers. Both ate the servants of Big
■ !. Business
& Mack had put it upon the ground of a
ft' rightful compliment to Parker In re
"■ L, tort it was |h Inleii out that this- was no
R*" lime f<»- compliments Tit. place was
Important It could b? used to accom
plish evil or good Th? gavel of the
coming convention ought not to he
disposed of in n tneie spirit of flattery |
Mack had also put bls Pai her recoin- i
mendation upon the argument that
Parker had once been the party's can-
J. didwte sot president As against this, it
iff- was set up that so too. had Biy.ui ben I
tit? party 's candidate fm president.
Threefold Reason For Bryan.
If to have been nominated mil heat-
1 (f. en as 'I IO Democratic eaiididab for
j. white house wet? to be received as , i
S reason why Parker shou be mad- !
fit temporary chairman, then there
threefold the reason so clewing Bly
s' M an to the since he had b< . n thre-j
Jit, times named and beaten as th. party’s
|y white house candidate
It wan ?.»!: d. too. why this . .go p.
My, to compliment Parker Juid s ept t rot
IMS. Why. since he so mm .. !. isl d
A' these flattering attention-. ha.in’: Park
■. er> name be< n cffeied in Dent er xx In n
Bryan was last nominal. ..
Going back to Wall St -.-i Why
K should Wall Street want Parker? N
J r one could precisely say not being ;.
mF in Wall Street's motives \s tn ~m
thing, however, all agreed \\ iat'x •
■t XX'sll Street wants u will .Cwv's g<
either from Mt Parker ot t mt Al

Possibly Wall Street is or \ -.. kin:
to give mankind an object lesson ,m

<As trot—how absolutely unprejudiced f -
, when it takes charge of a politk > p,

Georgia Delegates Are Now in
Baltimore Ready for Big

By JAMES B. NEVIN.
BALTIMORE, June 24. —Tile Georgia
delegation to the Democratic national
convention, after a trip marked by the
near-arrest of James R. Gray, news
paper publisher of Atlanta, Ga„ as Tom
Eelder. awoke in the Monumental City
today ready to take a big part in the
great gathering and enthusiastic in be
half of 0.-ett I'ndcrwood.
Just why editor Gray' was picked out
lor the Atlantan whom Governor
Blease, <>f South Carolina; wants to see
so badly, is a mystery unless it lie
that as.it Vt'ilsonite he was so conspicu
ous among the Cnderwood boomers. At
tt.y rate, at Seneca, S. <'.. the first
stop the < (invention's special made, a
large 'rd-fatvil gentleman in plain
clothes climbed aboard the train and
a.ntmm< cd that he was the sheriff of
the comity and had a warrant for the
u rest of one Thomas ■B. Beider, of
AI lanta. ~
Mr. Gray Had To Do ,
Considerable Ttalking.
Tlie tirst man lie walked into was Mr
Cray and the editor had to do con
i -mlerabb talking to eonvineethe sheriff
' that, although Im fitted in with the
i somewhat stout and clean shaven end
of llm description. Im was not the per

Tli ■ shot iff w as fm illy convinced and
! then pounced upon Clayton Robsop, of
' Milledgeville, as rite next nearest, of
description. He was arguing the mat
ter with Robson when the train pulled
| out and Im jumped off. A second in •
i qttiry for I'eld' i' was made at Green
j ville. but in a more half-hearted way
as the authorities there were easily

■file..' is a movement rm in the Geor
gia delegation to the national eonven-
Itinn to elect Thomas G. Hudson, who
! is attending the convention as a spee-
I tutor, a delegate in the place of Thomas
j !•;. Watson, who is not here. Mr. Hud-
D n voted I'm Mi. I’ndcrwood. and al-
I though a candidate for governor at the
jtithe. did not fail to let his preference
be known. Mr. Hudson has no knowl
edge <H Cuis matter, hut bis friends mi
the delegation think his election to 'the
delegation would lie a graceful compli
ment to him.
The delegation lias authority to fill
an. vacaimms or il may easj its vote as
though all were present.
Notwithstanding possible absentees,
Mr. Hudson iikely will be elected be
i fore the delegation transacts any other

gart said. "We do not believe that
theie will be any trouble. We are de
pending upon Mr. Bryan's interest in
patty success that he shall not provide
us with trouble. It would accomplis'n
nothing
"It is not to be understood that there
is tn he any steam roller program on
the part of the national committee nor
on the part of any one else. We have
no program of that sort and wo have
not undertaken to say that anybody In
particular is to be nominated for the
presidency.
Taggart Is For Marshall.
"Personally . 1 am for Governor Mar

out saying. But I am not trying to
influence my friend, Sullivan, nor anv
other member of the national commit
tee to support him or to give him any
undue advantage through the proceed
ings of the national committee.
"The nominee for president must be
selected with an eye singly to party
success in November and as a result of
the deliberate thought of the rank and
file of the Democracy of the country.
Nothing must be forced by anybody
and nobody that we know anything
about is trying to force anything.”
A member cf Mr. Sullivan's entour
age said that Taggart, Sullivan and
Murphy, of New Yotk. had mapped out
a. harmony program and that if the
program were broken they desired
matters to so fall out that Mr. Bryan
would have to assume the responsibil
ity for the break.
Tariff To Be
Chief Issue
BALTIMORE, June 24.—Conferences
were resumed today on the platform
which the Democratic national conven
tion will adopt. From the outline of
the various planks now available it is
plain that the tai iff w ill be the chief
point on which the party will take issue
with the Republicans.
The tariff plank will follow closely
that embodied in the Denver platform,
which declared for a gradual reduction
to a rev,nite basis and immediate and
material reductions in the necessaries
of life, especially upon such articles of
American manufacture as ate sold more
cheaply abroad than at home.
"The trust” plank will be devoted in
the main to a declaration that congress
should make amendatory legislation to
make tite Sherman anti-trust law mote
tffective. A vigorous enforcement of
the amended law will be insisted upon.
Approves Money Trust Probe.
A joint resolution by congress pro
viding for the direct election of United
States senators will be indorsed.
The action of the house of represen
tatives in starting a thorough investi
gation of the “money trust” will be
strongly indorsed with insistence upon
the passage at this session of congress
of the I’ujo bill giving greater visitorial
powers over national banks.
The work of the Aldrich national
monetary commission will be rejected
in so far as it provides for a central
bank, out certain of the commission's
recommendations will be.indorsed.
Indorsement will be given the anti
injunction bill passed by the house of
representatives. Legislation will be
promised providing for jury trial of all
( uses w'here there is direct contempt of
court.
May Oppose “Third Term."
Other plunks which may find tbei l '
way into the platform are:
Declaring for regular increase of the
navy, probably the construction of two
battleships a yeat
Improvement, of harbors and rivers.
Favoring a national public health bu
reau.
A»plank ha> also been proposed de
claiing against a third term for presi
dents.
The suffragettes are trying to nail In
a plank declaring in favor of woman's
i ights.
The platfot m is to be short, sharp
and incisive.
The resolutions committee probably
will meet Wednesday evening follow

vention.

DPPDSE HADLEY
INEODRI
Plans of New Party Go Or,
Deneen, in Illinois, Also To
Be Given a Race.
CHICAGO, June 24. —Organization oi
Colonel Roosevelt's third party went
on a pace today with the drawing ur
of tickets in half a dozen states anc
the pledging of leaders to stick with
the former president “to the finish."
Crowds and enthusiasm were mark
cd around the colonel's headquarters ir
the Congress hotel. Also George W
Perkins, director of the Internationa
Harvester Company, and Medill Mc-
Cormick. were on hand and smiling, as
suring that the bills of the new party
would be paid.
Declarations by Governor Dcneei
and Governor Hadley, the later oru
of the colonel's original seven, that
each would stick to the regular party,
led the Roosevelt progressive or “bull
moose" party organizers to determine
to put independent nominees for gov
ernor in the field in these two states.
In California, Kansas. West Virginia
and other states it was believed the
Roosevelt strength was such that the
regular ticket could be thrown under
the bull moose party column.
At the conference the former presi
dent impressed upon his followers the
point that the new party was not to
be the vehicle of "sore heads," but rep
resented a genuine progressive move
ment.
The ex-president assured his back
ers that the .new party has a distinct
fight of its own. He alluded to the sit
uation in the Democratic party and im
pressed upon his leaders that the Pro
gressive parjy may expect a strong
alignment from the Democratic ranks
if the Baltimore convention fails to re
spond to the progressive call of the
country.
Hopes for Support
From Democrats.
While he Is not banking on what
may come out of Baltimore, he is alert
to the keen advantage he would de
rive if the Democrats fail to put up a
progressive to run against the reac
tionary Taft. Roosevelt is promised
the support of many influential pro
gressive Democrats—so it was said at
his looms—ls the Baltimore conven
tion picks a retrogressive for its can
didate.
The Roosevelt campaign Is to be
managed by Governor Hiram Johnson,
of California. Besides the governor,
whose strength ip the far West was
the impelling motive for put ling him
at flic helm, will be seven other pro
pressives. Among them will bo Fran
eis J. Honey, of San. Francisco, and
Judge Bon B. Linsey, Democrats, of
Denver. Governor Stubbs, of Kansas,
who has plunged into the bull moose
party with a whoop, will be another to
help guide the new political ship.
While the remainder of the gov
erning council has not been picked, it is
rumored that Governor Glasscock,
West Virginia. Senator Cummins, of
lowa, and Governor Bass, of New
Hampshire, will be in the list.
Red Bandanna
Flag of New Party.
“The new party." said Colonel R'■ ( ».$p •
velt, in talking today, "is intended to
take a distinct place in the affairs of
the country. Ido not want it a party
for progressive Republicans alone. H
must take in all m?n who feel that the
progressive principle’ are to be car
ried out."
The red bandanna handkerchief, as
a sign of the common people, has been
adopted as the Roosevelt party flag
and at a conference meeting yesterdax
many supporters of the movement ap
peared wearing the handkerchiefs
about their arms. Alice Roosevelt
Longworth appeared at the meeting
wearing one on her hat.
Hadley Chooses to
Stay With G. O. P.
JEFFERSON CITY. Mo.. .Tune 24.
On his return from the Chicago con
vention, Governor Hadley declared his
detei mination not to join Roosevelt’s
third party movement.
"I believe I can render more service
