DROP-FORGE MEN TOLD
TO ENTER POLITICS
EVEN THE WEATHER IS CONTRARY AT CHICAGO
Industry Damaged by Theorists,
Says H. B. French to Amer
ican Association
Howard B. French, president of the Phila
delphia Chamber of Commerce, speaking to
day at the- opening session of the third
annual convention of the American Drop
Forge Association In the Hotel Adelphla,
declared that "business men are themselves
to blame for adverse legislation," Inasmuch
as1 ''they are too modest and neglect to
interest themselves In politics."
'"Prosperity depends on the manufac
turers," he said. "In spite of the fact- that
business men pay the largest taxes, we
seldom find them In Legislatures. Most
legislators are professional men and know
nothing about business."
Mr, French's nddress contained an allu
sion to President Wilson" and Governor
Brumbaugh In the Temark that sometimes
schoolteachers go Into political ofllces. tak
ing their rulers along. "I wonder If tho
rulers are Intended for chastisement," he
said.
"We hesitate to go to tho headquarters
of political organizations and say. This
must be donel' There, Is a chanco that we
may be called 'lobbyist,' but If business men
will get together they can prevent the en
actment of unfortunate laws."
Mr, French asserted that when the Gov
ernment went Into business It entered com
petition with Us own citizens. The Govern
ment should be executive, he maintained,
and It should remain so, never entering the
manufacturer's field.
E. J. Cattetl, city statistician, represented
Mayor Smith. He predicted the end of the
; 'European war within a year, and said that
Contrary to expectations Europe would not
then be bankrupt.
"Under the surface." he said, "the econ
omy practiced Is equalizing, the expendi
tures; When the war Is concluded, Europe
will 'be the greatest buying market In tho
world, and Philadelphia, from 800 to 1000
miles' nearer tho scene than cities of tho
West, will occupy a unique position, again
taking a place In the front rank of manufac
turing centres, where It belongs."
.Others who' spoke were F. A. Ingalls,
president of the .Ingalls, Shepard Forging
C6mpany, of Harvey, III. : E. B. Home, sec
retary and treasurer of the Packard Motor
Car Company, of Detroit, and H. N. Taylor,
of the N.-& O, Taylor Company of Philadel

"As the committee has not asked for Its
discharge," announced Chairman Harding.
"It will ,be authorized to continue Its work."
When Arizona was reached on the roll
call1, Frank R. Steward, an alternate, ob
jected, and It required a rollcall of the
delegates before the plan to have that State
yield to New York could be made effective.
New York was called and Chairman Hard
ing recognized Governor Whitman, who was
given a warm and tumultuous reception.
Governor Whitman. In opening, said:
"We have been frequently told that wo
are here 'to choose a standard-bearer In a
great campaign. If our action be wise and
righteous we will leave this place after
having named tho future ruler of 100,
000,000 people,
"Wo .are hero to select the next Presi
dent of these United States.
"Tho national horizon Is dark and
troubled, From afar the lurid flashes qf
a world war reminds us of our own citi
zens kilted and our own flag Insulted. To
the south we see anarchy encroaching on
our borders. At Washington the President
'watches and waits.'
"Yet we must not think tho task before
ub an easy one. The country Is still at
peace and the maintenance of peace will
be plausibly claimed, by the Democratic
party. That party hopes that the country
will soon forget the Insults to our national
honor. It Is its belief that the people will
not long remember the vacillating diplomacy
clothed In glittering rhetoric which has
alarmed our people, discredited our stand
ing ninong the nations and brought us to
tho verge of war.
"A form of prosperity la In the, land
and few perhaps recognize Its temporary
nature or pause to analyse its causes.
HITS DEMOCRATIC TARIFF,
"The great war in Europe created unusual
and temporary markets which stayed for
the time the disaster otherwise sura to re
sult from a Democratic tariff. The war
came when our factories were beginning to
close, when cars and engines were being
shunted onto sidings for long Idleness, when
business was preparing, for a siege of hard
times, such as had not been experienced
since 1895. This great war turned our
workmen from the breadlines back t the
mills, the forges and the farms, as surely
as did the election of William McKlnley and
a Republican Congress In 1835."
"We must choose a man so great and of
such masterful authority that he may bring
home, to the people a realization of the
artificial character of our temporary pros
perity," Whitman continued, "We must
choose a man so great that he may be able
to lead us safely through the perils that
will follow the resumption of peace.
KIND OF MAN NEEDED.
"We must . choose a man, so great In
himself that the fear of comparison with
himself will not deter him from surround.

and of tho personal triumph that campaign

"Thcro was not nny question about his
Americanism then," snld tho Governor.
"Tho Republican pnrty Ih tho party of
stability nnd tho party of progress, its
fundamental policies havo determined tho
course of tho nation's history," continued
the Governor. "Our candidate is sound
upon the great question of national pro
pnredncss. He said eight years ago:
We are devoted to the Interests of
pence and we cherish no policy of ng
gresslon; tho maintenance of our Ideals
Is our surest protection. It Is our con
stant aim to live In friendship with till
nations and to realize the alms of a
free government secure from tho Inter
ruptions of strife and tho waste of war.
It Is entirely consistent with thesa ex
tremes, and It Is our duty to mnko
adequate provision for our defense nnd
to maintain tho cfllclcncy of our army
and navy." "And this I favor.
The Governor's concluding remarks wero:
"No one could better express the funda
mental doctrlna which underlies our na
tional defense
"These, then, aro his principles, sound,
Republican nnd patriotic.
"I need not dwell upon his recent career.
"This phnso of his career is a magnificent
supplement to his earlier achievements. Few
of our great executives .havo had such nn
opportunity or such a trial of their Intel
lectual power.
"His eminent success Is as striking a
tribute to tho versatility of his gonul.s as
to tho fundamental greatness of his char
acter. "Wo havo seen him tne mnn of action,
tho champion of the people, tho Idol of tho
electorate, the faithful public scrvnnt, the
profound thinker on national Issues.
"Ho, above all other men, can hrlng
home to the people the fact thnt the Dem
ocrats party has failed miserably in Us
stowardshlp. He, above all other men, enn
bring to tho people a conviction of tho
dnngerB which surround us. Ho, nbovo nil
other men, can assure this country that the
Republican party, tho party of progress, of
union and of patriotic achievement, Is onco
moro united nnd capnblo of assuming tho
helm of the ship of state. He, above all
others, can bring back to tho party the
confidence of the people. He, above all
others, can bring to the counlry prosperity,
happiness and honarblo peace,
"Gentlemen of the convention, tho State
of New York presents to the nation Charles
Evans Hughes as Its next President."
Enthusiastic applause greeted tho name of
Hughes.
Ab the Governor concluded his speech
at 12:13 the demonstration began.
DELEGATES CHEER HUGHES,
New York started the outburst nnd half
the delegation leaped upon chairs to lead
the cheering. An Arizona delegate, with a
toy elephant three feet high swung over
his head, started a parade through the
aisles.
Oregon's Hughes-instructed delegation
Joined In nnd the Oregon banner swung In
behind the baby elephant.
Vermont was next. Through the aisles
went the procession with a steady "We
want Hughes, We want Hughes" ringing out
above the general tumult that swept the
big hall from pit to dome. Mississippi and
Michigan carried their banners Into line, but
the banner of New York, home State of
Hughes, stood stolidly In Its place, no effort
being made to take It, frpm Us speket.
While the Hughes men from New York
Joined In the parade through the aisles
some 40 of the anti-Whitman delegates In
the delegation eat stolidly In ther seats.
Ohio and Indiana likewise refused to Join
in the uproar. The Hughes delegates from
New York did their utmost to keep the dem
onstration going, bu they did pot Join In
the parade.
"Hughes and whiskers will beat Wilson
and watchful waiting!" yelled a leather
lunged delegate, as the procession swept
round the hall, and he' got a cheer. The
favorite son delegates stood the straht -well
and seemed amused by the effort of the
Hughes'- shouters among the delegates to get
real support from the galleries.
The Vermont delegation, armed with big
rattles, added materially to the Volume and
variety of the tumult, but there was absent
from the rtdta of the applause the frenzy
that usually marks such a demonstration.
Chairman Harding did not make the slight
est effoft a cut off the demonstratloa
"We might Ju$t as well let-the boys keep
it up," ha said.
Somebody In the gallery snouted "Hurrah
for Roosevelt!" but U got nowhere It It wag
an attempt to capture the ovation,
A band of men and women In one of
the top gUrie began to sing, "Wo want'
Ta." and the Ohlg delegates joined them.
Hughes" manager, Hitchcock, from A
place of vapUge on the floor, viewed th
demonstration with approval and nodded
ensovageaent to. the various, Hughe dele
gat loos.
After th yelling JuUI lasted J$ minute,
a Siot man in tho New York, delegation

VumSKSSSb&miTuaLliSB-
of their participation in tno demonstration
It wan plain that the claims of tho Hughes
managers that they had the votes to put
Hughes over on iho first ballot wero not
well "founded. Less than a majority of tho
dolegntes participated In tho parades or
tho cheering.
There were about 300 delegates In tho
demonstration.
At 12:31, when tho demonstration had
been on for 19 minutes. Chairman Harding
began to rcstoro order. Tho delegates
soon quieted down, but tho gnllerlcs wero
moro difficult to control. Uuti two min
utes Inter the big hall was quiet. Tho
demonstration lasted 21 minutes.
BUTLER NAMES ROOT.
Chairman Harding then announced that
Arizona continued her courtesy to Now
York nnd ho then recognized Dr. Nlcholns
Murray Butler to name Ellhu Root.
In his speech Doctor Butler said:
"I shall name iv Republican who, by
common consent, fllhtuls among. tho great
est statesmen of hln time In this or nny
other land. Theso nro na ordinary times
Tho world Is In upheaval. Forces long he
lleved to be contlned are looso In the
world spreading death nnd destruction. Tho
United States Is In tho midst of a great
world storm. Tho winds of prejudice, nnd'
hate aro threatening tho craft of civiliza
tion. "Problems nt homo complicate problems
abroad. Problems abroad bring problems
nt home. But all problems nro merged Into
ono ; tho problem of preserving and In
creasing American civilization. This Is tho
task confronting tho Republican party to
day. "Wo nro composite ns a people, but wo
nro one In our Confident hope In tho future.
It was tho Rcpublicnn party which saved
the nation In the stormy days of 1800,
"Wo are here to .choose leaders who will
give voice and effect to Republican princi
ples. "Wo nro gathered here under tho scrutiny
of tho wholo American people to 'take tho
first step toward substituting n Republican
administration for the Democratic Adminis
tration now In power in Washington. That
will mean security nnd prosperity for tho
American people.
"Our rnndldivto Is ono of tho greatest
Americans of the century and his career Is
ono of whom all true Americans can well be
proud."
Doctor Butler then reviewed tho career of
former Senator Root from the time of his
first entry Into politics to tho present time.
Tho delegates sat Impassively while this
was being dono and there wast very llttlo
Interruption by nppause.
Dr. Butler gave Root credit for tho
colonial policy of the ynltcd States as well
ns for tha establishment of tho nrmy war
college nnd the army general etaff.
GREATEST WAR SECRETARY.
"Ho was the greatest Secretary of War
this nation has ever seen," wnB the man
ner In which Dr. Butler summed up tho
qualifications of hla candidate. "Ho Is
known to all of the nations of the world us
America's leading statesman. Let us not
'forget that soon tho question of restoring
peace in Europo is to be raised and we
must have a candidate who can meet tho
questions of that time in a manner to re
tain America in her position as tho friend
of all nations.
"When all countries are calling their
most serious and wise statesmen Into
service, we must ourselves remember that
this Is no time to give compliment's. We
must have our wisest man at the head of
this nation during the coming four anxious
years.
The people of the United States are not
willing that at a time like this the high
est ability, experience and capacity for serv
ice shall be boond their reach. The peo
ple want the best they have.
"Let us bring to the rescue of the country
today the executive power which can guide
the nation through tho perilous four years
upon which we are about to embark,"
WOMAN STARTS OUTBURST.
Doctor Butler completed, his work of
placing Hoot in nomination at 13:56.
As in the case of Hughes, a demonstra
tion was started. The New Yorjt Roo
delegates began it and It spread rapidly.
High up In the gallery behind, the speak
er's platform, a woman with a voice like a
steam whistle emitted u series of shrieks
that rose above the tumult on the floor, the
blare, of the band and all the rest of the
miscellaneous medley of racket
The wonderful yell almost stQpped the
demonetratlon aa pvry ono looked to eee
if somebody was hurl- Put the woman,
attired In a blue silk suit, Jumped to a
gallery cbair and swinging an American
flag above her head, turned loos? another
series of ear-splitin yells.
Job Hedges, of New York. Jumped on his
ehalr and megaphoned tQward tha woman,
"Let her go I That's the girl! We waftt
Root and you, can be our cheer leader "
This caused a general laugh from alt sides.
Then Jledgrt began waving W arms.
The crowd went ro4 again. The woman
was soon identified ns Mrs, Thomas Root,
of Washington, D. C.
At 1:07 Chairman Harding began to
rap for order, and then tho woman re
newed her cheers. Although sho had told
tho spectators that she was "Mrs, Root,"
a number of persons Insisted that she wns
Mrs. Davis, of Chicago, who started the
demonatration for Ruosovclt four years
ago.
Tho Root demonstration was halted by
Chairman Harding's gavel for n moment
or two, but at a signal from Mr. Hodges
tho women broke out again and It wns not
until 1:11 that tho rollcall was continued
nnd Arlmnsns yielded to Ohio.
WILLIS NAMES BURTON.
Governor Willis, of Ohio, was then rec
ognized and was wnrmly cheered ns he
took his placo on tho speaker's stnnd.
Willis "pulled a hot ono" right at the
start. Tho stuffed elephant used In the
Hughes demonstration had been left on tho
platform. Willis said:
"Gentlemen, Inasmuch ns Governor Whit
man nnd Doctor Butler cannot ngreo as to
tho ownership of this elephant which typi
fies our party I now claim It for Ohio."
This caused a gencrnl cheer, nnd Wllllsf
hauled tho elephant out to tho edgo of the
Platform and began hla set speech.
Dovotlng the first half of his speech to
criticism of tho Democratic administration,
ho then said thnt we need in the White
Houso "11 red-blooded American who knows
tho world."
Tho nominee must bo nolo to seeuro the
confidence of Spanish-America, must bo nn
opponent of extravagance, must bo n de
fender of tho protectlvb policy, nnd must
bo unafraid to challengo powerful Influences
within or without his party.
"Ills leadership must bo that which
comes from the successful advocacy of
great principles," said Governor Willis, add
ing: "Tho Republican pnrty nnd its prin
ciples aro greater thnn nny ono man, how
ever great and wise his leadership may
be."
Mr. Burton, he continue!', had the blood
of tho GnintB-in his veins and had helped'
mnko tho history of progress us a member
of Congress for 10 years. In his election
contests ho always ran far ahead of his
ticket. .
Slnco his elevation to tho Senate In 1909,
Mr. Burton's advocate continued, ho had
fought tho people's fight for economy.
Mr. Burton, he said, wub nn expert on
banking problems, and "the grcates living
authority" on waterways. Ills private life
Is clean nnd his character firm but amiable.
Governor Willis was In excellent voice
nnd he made a real hit with tho crowd
when ho appealed to the delegates to re
unite the party of Abraham Lincoln. Men
tion of .Lincoln's name, whoso portrait
hangs In tho back of the hall, was received
with applause that every one on the floor
was able to Join in,
While Willis talked the leaders continued
their conferences and tried to decide what
they wero going to do.
The .Governor started yells of "right,
right; go to It, boy," when ho declared;
PLEADS FOR UNITY.
"Let's get tho glrtaand pep and punch of
tho Progressives, together with the solidity
of the Republicans and we'll have a com
bination that all hell can't beat,"
The Governor's emphatic appeal for a re
consecration o fthe Republicans also was
a pleasing note to the delegates.
"1912 is behind us a'ud 1916 before us"
ho shouted, "and our duty is plain," "and
the delegates again voiced approval of the
sentiment.
A number of suggestions that the con,
ventlon recess for luncheon were turned
down by the steering committee. There
were eight hours of oratory before the
convention if tho plans" were not upset and
the leaders wanted to get this out of tha
way. Whether, however, they would sit
through until all the nominating speeches
were out of the way and recess before
voting will not be decided for a while at
least.
Willis' emphatic epigrams were pleasing
to the convention and his speech was mak,
Ing a "great hit.
Departing from his text, Willis suddenly
declared:
"The" grave responsibility which- con
fronts the nation today must be shouldered
by the Republican party. A new day will
dawn for the nation after next fall's elte-
"A ?,""'.' ',hl at tl"s moment the
aun Is shining, thank God!"
The convention crowd that has not seen
the sun for four days of dreary driving rain
howled, approval of this sentiment as a
feeble ray shone through the. high windows
of the hall.
Piclaratlon by WlilU that until an "old
fashfone McKlnley tariff Is enacted no real'
prosperity Is possible," was cheered to the
echo,

Tho Progrosslvo conferees were un

nnd fairness the opinion that Theodore
Roosavolt, of New York, had so large a
personal following nnd such a. close
personal relation to tho Issues of the
coming campaign ns to mako him a
most deatrablo candidate upon which
to unite.

for tho Colonel as soon ns possible.
A hurried call was Bent out to friendly

SMOOT READS COMMITTEE REPORT
WITH HAND IN PISTOL POCKET
Senator's Attitude May Have Been Due to Memories of.
1912 Depew and Cannon Compete With Harding
in Exhibition of Lung Power
CHICAGO, June 9. Senator Reed Smoot.
who rushed Into the limelight when ho was
nustlcd up from tho wings in his sad,
drooping mustache to rend the report of the
Committee on Credentials, has a slightly
snubbed nose. His report Is tho one that
determines whether delegates shall sit down,
stand up or get out; nnd it's tho ono that
precipitated the free-for-all battlo In 101..
It may hnvo been misapprehension super
Induced by disturbing 1911! memories, or
possibly only habit, but tho Senator braced
himself nnd kept his right hand on hla
pistol pocket all tho time he reported.
Both Chunccy M. Dcpew and Uncle Joe
Cannon. 82 nnd SO, respectively, or 102
years nil told, demonstrnted In their,
speeches that age ha3 not Impaired tholr
lung power. Both of them can bo heard
in tho Coliseum as well as Chairman Hard
ing, a much younger and huskier man.
Sonator Lodge to, whom one of tho keen
est delights for years has been the ex
clusion of newspaper men from the sessions
of the Resolutions Committee, scowled
and growled and wns quite peeved when he
learned that some of them had slipped In
this time. Tho middle name of the Sen
ator's family for centuries has been Secrecy.
Senator Borah, who partB his hnlr and
delivery In tho middle, uses but ono
oratorical punctuation mark when he makes
a speech. Ho talks with his hands in his
pockets, hut occasionally he hauls a couple
of forefingers out of his trousers pocket,
shakes them at tho crowd and puts them
back again. The Senator hasn't had a hair
cut for a long time and ha looks fine.
When House Officer Abrams, of the
La Salle, wanted to clear a corridor of
argumentative Hughes and Roosevelt
boomers, ho distributed a fow squirts of
ammonia surroptltlously about their edges.
The Hughes delegate who got the first
whiff moved away with the remark that
the Roosevelt sentiment was getting too
Btrong for him and tho rest of the crowd
followed quickly.
