New Party Nomlnatss Leaders
by Acclamation
"PROGRESSIVE" OFFICIAL TITLE
Psyne-Aldrleh Tariff Bill Condemned
In Platform, Also Canadian Red
proclty and Aldrich Currency Plan
The Progressive party the official
name of the new party adopted by the
convention In Chicago, completed Its
ticket and nominated:
For president, Theodore Roosevelt
of New York.
For vice president, Governor Hiram
W. Johnson of California.
Poth nominations were made by nc
claninllon amid stormy scenes of
enthusiasm. The convention had be,?n
In session ten hours. The delay in
making the nominations was caused
by exhaustive discussions over the
platform in the committee on resold
tions.
From the very first moment to the
last this convention has had tho ap
pearance of a great religious revival
Senator Dixon and others remarked nt
the close of the convention:
"This is not politics; this
religion."
A platform which differs drastically
from those adopted at the Republican
and Democratic conventions was In-
dorsed by the new Progressive party
delegates, it follows in part.
The party declares for -direct
primaries for the nomination of state
and national officers, for nationwide
primaries for candidates for the
presidency, for the direct election of
United States senators By tbe people,
and we urge on the states the policy
of the short ballot with responsibility
to the people secured by the Initiative,
referendum and rera'l.
The party pledges itself to provide
a more easy and expeditious method
of amending the fundamental consti
tution. Equal suffrage to men and women
is pledged.
The Progressive party, In order ;o
secure to the people a better admin-
istratlon of justice, pledges itself to
work unceasingly for the reform "f
legal procedure and Judicial methods.
Injunctions In cases arising out of
labor disputes should be prohibited
when such injunction would not app'y
when no labor disputes existed. Jury
trial Is favored when contempt was
not committed In actual presence nt
court.
We pledge ourselves to work un
ceasingly In state and nation for:
Legislation looking to the preven
tion of Industrial accidents, occupa
tional diseases, overwork, Involuntary
unemployment and other injurious ef
fects incident to modern Industry.
The fixing of minimum safety and
health standards for the various oc
cupations, and the exercise of the
public authority of state and nation.
Including the federal control over In
terstate commerce, and the taxing
power to maintain such standards.
The prohibition of child labor.
.Minimum wage standards for work
ing women.
Prohibition of night work for women
and the establishment of an eight-
hour day for women and young per
sons.
One day's rest In seven for all wage
workers.
The eight-hour day.
The abolition of the convict con
tract labor system.
Standards of compensation fjr
death by industrial accident and In
jury and trade disease.
Protection of home life against
sickness. Irregular employment and
old age through the adoption of social
Insurance.
Organization of the workers Is
favored.
To remedy the high cost of living
conditions requires the fullest Inform
ation and based on this Information
effective government supervision to
remove all the artificial causes. Wo
pledge ourselves to such inquiry and
to Immediate action dealing with
every such need Inquiry discloses.
We demand a strong national regu
lation of Interstate corporations. To
that end wo urge the establishment
of a strong federal administrative com
mission of h'gh standing which shall
fualntain permanent active supervi
sion over Industrial corpora Jons en
gaged In Interstate commerce or such
of them as are of public Importance,
doing for them what the government
now does for the national banks and
what is now done for the railroads by
the interstate commerce commission.
We pledge our party to secure to the
Interstate commerce commission the
power to value the physical property
of railroads.
We demand the abolition of the
commerce court.
We are opposed to the so-called Al
drich currency bill because Its provi
sions would place our currency and
credit system In private hands not
subject to effective public control. The
control should be lodged with the gov
ernment. We believe in a protective tariff
which shall equalize conditions of
competition between tho 1'niled States
and foreign countries both for the
farmer and the manufacturer and
which shall maintain for labor an ad-

Boggs had managed to ditch his car,

Why, ya-as, brother," said the
farmer, bringing bis team to a stand

"One day?" retorted Boggs. " Tlsn't

quato standard of living. Primarily
the benefit of any tariff should be dis
closed In the pay envelope of the !a
borer. We declare that no Industry de
serves protection which is unfair to
labor or which Is operating In viola
Hon of federal law.
We demand tariff revision because
the present tariff Is unjust to the peo.
pie. We pledge ourselves to the e.
tablishment of a nonpartisan scten
tide tariff commission.
We demand the immediate repeal of
the Canadian reciprocity act.
We believe in a graduated lnherl
tance tax as a national means of
equalizing the obligations of holders
of property to government.
We pledge the party to use Its best
endeavors to substitute judicial and
other peaceful means of settling In
ternational differences,
We favor an international agree'
ment for limitation of naval forces,
Pending such an agreement the
policy of building two battleships a

STRAIGHT TICKET IN PENNA.
Keystone Leaders Bow to Wishes of
Colonel.
After conferring with William Flinn
and other Pennsylvania leaders, Colo
nel Roosevelt announced that there
would be a straight third party ticket
in that state. He said:
"I have held a conference with the
Pennsylvania people who have been
extremely kind and have said that
they would accept my wishes and we
are to run a straight party ticket In
Pennsylvania."
It was learned that Roosevelt has
been told that since the national Pro
gressives hold the balance of power
In Pennsylvania they will name Sena
tor Penrose, Senator Oliver and their
friends to fill the vacancies on the
electoral ticket made by the resigna
tion of tho Roosevelt men.
BROWN FOR OHIO GOVERNOR
Taft People Name Their Man Bull
Moose Ticket Now Certain.
Taft and Roosevelt men reached tho
parting of the ways In Ohio when, fol-
owing the nomination of General R.
B. Brown of Zanesville for governor
at a meeting of the Republican state
central committee, eight members of
that body, led by State Chairman
Walter F. Brown and Secretary I. M.
Foster, resigned. Brown also gave no
tice of his resignation as a member
of the Republican national commltteo
(or Ohio.
Following the split Walter Brown
and other supporters of Colonel Roose
velt said that they expected that a
complete Progressive state ticket
would be placed in the field at one?.
QUAKE KILLS 1,000
5,000 Injured and 15,000 Homeless in
Turkey.
Unolllclal reports estimate that the
earthquake In Turkey killed 1,000 per
sons, injured 5,000 and made 15,000
homeless.
Tho olllclal reports when the tele
graph lines have been restored are
likely to reduce these figures con
siderably, but enough reliable Informa
tion Is at hand to justify the most
serious view of the disaster.
Water springs have dried up on
some of the Islands ami the survivors
are suffering from thirst as well as
hunger.
The Red Crescent society is sending
food to them and other sufferers.
His New Job.
A colored shoe shiner at a hotel
barber shop here had been after Rep
resentative Steenerson of Minnesota,
one of his customers, to get him some
kind of a government job. He said he
had a brother in Pittsburg who held
a political job that paid him well.
His impression was that his brother
made something like 1,E00 a year.
"What does your brother do?" asked
Steenerson.
"Don't know just exactly what his
duties are," replied the boy, "but he's
been appointed what they call a ward
heeler."

LECONTE DIES
IN EXPLOSION
President ot Haiti Perishes;
Palace Destroyed
General Cinclnnatus Leconte. nresl-
dent of the republic of Haiti, perished
In a (Ire which destroyed the national
palace at Port Au Prince. It was
caused by an explosion of the powdei
magazine attached to the structure.
The palace, which was of wooden
construction, was consumed within
half an hour. During the fire there
were many explosions of munltij'" id
war which had been stored Hi the
cellars below the palace. All the
houses nearby were damaged.
The family of the president, all rl
whom were n the naiuce at the time
were saved.
Consternation reigns among the pop
ulation, but no disorders have oc
curred.
Warship Sent to Haiti.
Following a djspatch from .Minister
Furniss telling of the death of Presi
dent Leconte of Haiti the state de
partment asked that a warship be
sent to Port An Prince at once. The
gunboat Nashville, at Guantanamo.
Cuba, was ordered to that port.
Haiti ami the Dominican republic
have been near war for some tirne and
it Is feared serious consequences may
ensue.
Whether there was a plot against
Leconte's life or whetner ho was a
victim to the extraordinary precaution
he had adopted for his own protection
has not been learned. He kept iae
large store of arms and ammunition
near his palace, where they could be
available immediately for his own uss
tit case of an uprising.

Active Demand.

"The expansion In iron and steel
continues with activity especially

White Specks In Butter.
White specks In butter are some
times simply flue particles of milk
