that was ever tendered a man by any !
patty in Ohio.” Earfold is the man who
stated that he had been offered the
Republican nominati-t, for governor as
Judge Dillon's successor, but refused it.
"because he wanted no strings tied to
himself." He declated that there was
“room for only two political patties in
this country, the party of progress and
the party of resistance.”
A platform was adopted which rat

clared in favor of many industrial and
social reforms.
Governor Hiram Johnson, of Califor

day. and it was a telling speech, set

Johnson was eloquent and spoke
with great earnestness, holding his

"This Is the party of men unafraid,"
said Johnson "We met in Chicago
three weeks ago, and it was the dawn
of a new era in political action, and

DENVER. Sept. s.—Mias Mabel
Rice, the only woman sprinkler cart j
driver in the world, has given up her
job to take her place in a vaudeville
circuit. She handed her resignation to
Mayor Arnold this afternoon, to take
effect immediately. Miss Rice has been
a familiar ligule in Denver stivets as
she drove a wagon, clad in a service
able suit consisting of tan colored
bloomers and knee-length skirt.
"I got tired of the monotony of driv
ing up one side of the street and down
the other,” she said today.
(ago the bosses knew that our victory
meant their defeat. If the Democrats
succeed In November, it means that
every boss will be enthroned in his
own state. The representatives and
beneficiaries of privilege will feel that
they have had a new lease of life. It
means precisely that."
Colonel Roosevelt said he found
everywhere among reactionary Repub
licans a growing purpose to support
Mr. Wilson on the theory that Presi
dent Taft was beaten already, and that,
the only hope of preserving the old
parties was to support the Democratic
ticket and defeat the Progressives.
Fuming to Judge John L. Stevens. Pro
gressive candidate for governor of
lowa, he continued:
"Today Judge Stevens told me about
an old standpat tei of the steam roller
type who said to him; 'Taft is beaten.
I am going over to Wilson to beat the
Progressives. We're going to throw
the lever clear over the other way.’
"Where Mr. Wilson is getting sup
port of that type we have the right to
ask every independent Democrat who
believes in the principles for which
Democracy nominally stands to come
with us. I ask every Democrat who
really believes in tile right of the people
to rule to come with us, for every rep
resentative of privilege, ev< ry boss, is
going to his side."

Decision of Executive Commit
tee to Postpone Second Pri
mary Stirs State.
COLUMBIA. S. C.. Sept. s.—South
Carolina is in an uproar today as a re
sult of the decision of the state execu
tive committee to postpone the second
primary for state officers while the
fraud investigation goes on.
In Anderson and other counties where
the lines are bitterly drawn there is
likely to be serious trouble unles»s the
governors race is decided soon.
The Anderson county executive com
mittee is examining witnesses today in
the fraud allegations.
The state committee, which met he.re
yesterday to begin its investigation of
fraud charges, named a sub-committee
of seven to thoroughly probe the re
cent primary.
The sub-committee was clothed with
full power and authority to take testi
mony and make a thorough investiga
tion of all alleged illegal practices at
the primary. It will report at the next
meeting of the committee to be called
by the chairman.
The members of the committee are
W. E. Stevenson, Chesterfield, chair
man: T. B. Butler, Cherokee: J. B.
Parks, Greenwood. W. B. Wildon, Jr.,
York: J. B. Bivens. Dorchester; J. M.
Greer, Union, and R. M. Jeffries, Jas
per.
The protests of W. Jasper Talbert
and N. B. Dial, candidates for the
United States senate, against the nom
ination of Senator B. R. Tillman, on
the ground that he failed to file his ex
pense account as provided by law. were
passed over until the next meeting.
The state committee adjourned to
meet at the call of the state chairman
and the sub-committee will begin the
work of Investigation at. an early date.
It is certain that the Blease faction
will do all in its power to prevent an
investigation. Eugene Blease, brother
of the governor, laid the fraud at the
door of the Jones faction, but at the
same time bitterly fought a resolution
which had for its object a searching
investigation Into the alleged irregular,
ities at the ballot boxes.
Every county was represented at the
’ meeting.
