CONVENTION
j Vast Body Called to Order by

C. Burrows, of Michigan, Made !
Temporary Chairman.
I
CHICAGO, JUNE 16. —Thousands of.
delegates, visitors from all parts of|
the world, still more of politicians,
spectators and hangers-on today wend
ed their way from all parts of Chicago
to the center of the universe, at least
for a few days, the Republican na- 1
tional convention hall—tho Coliseum, j
Hours before the schedule time for
j opening of the convention immense
I throngs were about the big building. J
The people came early to avoid the |
rush, but tho rush could not be avoid- j
ed for the crowd was so great. The j
plan to avoid the rush began too early, j
Creat preparations were made to I
handle the crowd. Scores of police- 1
men were on hand and the sergeant-al
arms stood within the building attend
ing to the last details and was prepar- j
pd to throw the doors open an hour be- >
fore the scheduled time.
The city is in gala attire. Every j
businass house on State street is a j
; mass of red, white and blue bunting
| and American flags. Wabash avenue
j is like a triumphal parade ground from j
the loop district to the Coliseum at!
Sixteenth street. The leading hotels !
are elaborately decorated within and
I without.
j Within the convention hall early
this morning the scene was really
beautiful and stirring. The interior of
the great building fairly groaned under
the folds of bunting and flags of every
nation on the globe. Many large par
ties of ladies started early for the con
vention hall.
The Pennsylvania delegation adopt
ed a resolution, as was expected,
which will goto the platform com
mittee, favoring a change in the repre
sentations at the national convention.
The change advocated is ori a basis of
one delegate to ten thousand votes
east at the previous election for presi
dent.
The sole hope ofthe allies for beating '
Taft lies with the Credentials commit
tee, which for the coming 48 hours or
more will hold the center of the stage
of the convention. There is little rea
son to believe the committee will over- j
turn the verdict of the National com-,
mittee 011 the matter of contested seats :
in sufficient number of cases to prevent ;
Taft's nomination on the first ballot. ]
It is not improbable that there will j
: be a few reversals, because since the
I action ofthe "steam roller" proceed
j ings of tho National committee, the
unsuccessful contestants who really
believed that they had a good chance, i
have been working hard to get their !
claims in the strongest possible shape, j
The strongest lawyers among the allies ■
have been engaged to work in commit
tee with this material under the leader
ship ot Mayor Bonwaller, of Indiana, j
Frank Smith, of Illinois, and James i
Scarlet, of Pennsylvania. Congress- j
man Sloat Fasset, of New York, will j
make the final charge on the Taft forti- j
fications.
It may be said that the Credentials
1 committee is as fully as strong for Sec
-1 retary Taft for president as the Nati
' onal committee, and when the final
! roll of the Convention is made up on |
Thursday or Friday, Secretary Malloy
5 will find it practically the same as to- j
' day.
1 President Gompers of the American |
' Federation of Labor has not received |
assurance that his labor proposal for 1
the platform will be dealt with to his
satisfaction. He has by no means
i given up hope, saying: "Our demands
I are moderate and we hope that the Re
, publican party will give them proper i
consideration."
t The Republican convention, which is j
I to name cadidates for president and 1
I vice 1 resident, and make declarations
- which will be the articles of faith of j
the party which has for the greater 1
part of a half century governed the j
United States, started on schedule 1
time at noon.

gates seat in the great convention

tional committee, rapped for order and
when he got it he said that he was ab
f solutely confident that the men nomin
ated by this convention and the poli
cies enunciated, will govern this coun
try for another four years. There are
fully thirteen thousand persons in the
Coliseum.
Prayer was offered by Bishop Mul

gravel to chairman New, the call ofthe
canvention was read by Secretary
Malloy.
Maybe the delegates and spectators
accept the idea that everything is cut
1 and dried. Maybe the fireworks will
I come later. That is if Speaker Cannon,
filibuster for Roosevelt, stampedes the
convention or suceeds in any measure.
Onoe there was a flare in the im
mense building. It was when Mr. and
Mrs. Nicholas Longs worth entered.
The crowd recognized the president's
daughter and instantly set up a cheer.
Aside from this incident tho conven
! tion is splendidly orderly and reserved
ly decorous.
When the band played "Dixie" tho
j south responded vociferously. When
I a Taft banner was brought in it caused
j less than a half minutes noise. At 12
| o'clock exactly the band struck up
"America". A flashlight of the hall
was taken as Chairman New's gavel
fell. When New mentioned Roosevelt
in his opening speech there was a noisy
I demonstration.
United States Senator Julius Caesar
Burrows, of Michigan, was elected
temporary chairman of the convention,
as has had been previously arranged
lor by the national committeo.
After referring in his opening re
marks to the overwhelming victory of
the Republican party four years ago.
Senator Burrows said in bis address
upon assuming bis duties as temporary
chairman:
"What has the Republican party
done in the last four years of govern
mental coutrol—in many respects the
most remarkable and brilliant in tho
history oTthe party and the country—
to forfeit public confidence or create
distrust in its capacity for future ad
ministration? Although some unto
ward and unforeseen conditions haye
beset the republic during the last four
years, yet these have been met and
overcome with alacrity and courage,
and the country has marched steadily
onward in its matchless course of in
dustrial triumphs. The wise and be
neficent legislation of tho Republican
| party during the long years of its as
cendency and administration of na
tional affairs laid the foundation for
the public weal so securely that no
disquieting condition, not even a tem
porary panic, which necessarily toucli
; es the mainspring of all industrial life,
j could arrest the country's resistless
: advance."
In a few brief and pointed sentences
| he traced the industrial growth and
I development of the country during the
past four years, and then reviewed in
eulogistic terms the records of the ex-
I eeutive departments of tho govern
, ment.
He spoke ofthe achievements of the
last session of congress; of the Ameri
can shipping interests; of the tnanage

ment of our out lying possessions by a
! Republican administration, which he
said had been attended with remark
able success; of railway legislation
and ho put the Repuplican party fairly
and squarely in favor oftarifT revision,
after referring to the financial legis- i
lation enacted by the recent congress
he spoke at length of the United States j
as a world power. In closing his j
speech he said:
"The work of this convention will
soon be concluded. The platform will j
voice the dominant thought of the peo I
pie, and the candidates nominated '
must stand upon it firm and erect.
They must have the patriotism of a
| Lincoln, the tenacity of a Grant, the
wisdom and moderation of a McKin
i ley, and the courage ot a Roosevelt.
With such a platform and such candi
dates the issue cannot be in doubt.
The Republican party confidently sub
mits its record to the approving judg
ment of the American people and
upon its renewal declaration of faith,
i invokes continuance of public favor."
The nominating speeches are being
