THOUGHT FOR TODAY.
Dear is my friend yet from my
foe, as Xrom my friend, comes good:
My friend shows what I can do,
and my foe what I should. Schiller.
INDEPENDENCE DAY DISASTERS.
Independence Day Is coming; day
of powder-poisoning and lockjaw;
day of hospitals and ambulances;
day of -mutilation and flro and death.
If there Is anything that is sane In
the American people it is tho grow
ing revolt against our insane manner
of celebrating tho Fourth of July.
It might bo called "Incendiaries'
Day"; for on that day the fire-fiend
runs riot. No man having any pub
lic responsibility fails to dread It.
No fire department gets through the
day, and the nights on both sides of
it, without exhaustion. It Is doubt
ful if on some fifth of July an entire
city may not complacently burn It
self up in the faces of firemen and
fire horses too exhausted by silly fire
cracker fires tho day before to cope
-with It. The fire-fighting apparatus
of our cities and towns Is so over
taxed by the numerous calls which
begin on the evening of July 3d that
resimncn to nosslble summons for
help by neighboring towns or cities
Is impossible. What fire chief would
dare allow even a hose wagon to go
beyond immediate recall while
alarms in his own city are coming
in at ten-minute Intervals? Even the
large number of false alarms, duo
to the reckless use of the day, have
their dire significance, for they tire
out tho horses and tho men, and re
duce the ability of the department
to copo with actual fires. When the
gong begins to ring at headquarters,
its call is as imperative for a rubbish
heap ablaze as it is for the home of
a citizen. The wear and tear of the
apparatus, and even tho Injury to
tho horses during thirty-six hours of
almost constant runs, may be as
great for false alarms as for real
ones. It seems a sort of folly almost
too unspeakable to relate, but there
are instances where American fire
men havo been killed in runs to fires
on July 4th by being thrown from
trucks by frightened horses swerving
from their course at explosives
thrown under them as they galloped
past.
Never an "Independence" 'Day but
scores of human beings arc made de
pendent for life. Life and limb aro
jeopardized by explosives thrown
from windows above tho level of the
street, setting flro to clothing and
menacing the eyesight of those pass
ing, while upon the child, who in his
innocent love of noise and objective
demonstration responds to our pres
ent absurd kind of celebration, falls
tho heavy hand of disaster. When
our civilization was not so complex,
It was posslblo for those who had
tho courage to leave their homes to
the mercy of possible conflagrations,
to shut them up and escapo to tho
quiet of tho country. Not so to-day.
The trolley car and tho automobile
follow the seeker after peaco to his
country retreats, throwing explosives
at his head as they roar past In their
reckless irresponsibility.
And for what! Nobody Btops to
inquire. Nobody any longer cares.
Wo 'havo gotten wholly away from
tho educational significance of "In
dependenco" Day, and lost ourselves
In an orgy of flro and nolso.
It Is perhaps, too much to expect
any sudden return to sanity; but
some effort at least may bo mado by
cities and towns toward leading their
people Into moro moderato and moro
Intelligent forms of celebrations. If
explosives must bo used tho authori
ties can limit their uso to tho public
parks during certain hours of tho
day, whero tho folly-hunters may kill
and malm themselves and each other

to heart's content, without Injuring
other people, or destroying property
by fire. Tho firing off of explosives
among the closely built shinglo-roof-ed
framo houses, which composo the
greater part of our cities. Is wholly
in accord with the reckless spirit of
Americans regarding fire.
If before every Fourth of July all
cities and towns were given a
thorough cleaning of rubbish, and all
use of explosives then restricted as to
time and place, the police and public
wardens might havo at least a fight
ing chance to minimize tho disas
trous results of our public during tho
years it may requiro to inspire in
our people a desire for a rational
kind of celebration. And such a de
sire must be inspired. It is tho duty
of every city to arrange for its people
suitable amusements or exercises
definitely calculated to educato them
in a rational observance of this his
toric holiday. Habits of folly can bo
most easily eliminated by a substitu
tion of something better Tho things
a city can do to interest its citizens
In a sane and wholesome celebration
are unlimited, and tho municipali
ties, which, in the past two years
havo taken steps in this direction,
are already receiving national praise
for their wisdom and their high
sense of civic responsibility.
Independence Day of 1912 is com
ing. To what city, what town, what
mother or father is it this year to
bring suffering or sorrow the day
after?

LEAVE "BY COLONEL'S ORDER"
Heney, Rseord and Others So Declare.
Taft Men Had Scored Again During
Day, 564 to 510 Governor Hadley
Received Ovation Which Looked as if
It Might Stampede Convention.
Chicago, June 20. The Pennsylvania
Roosevelt delegates, by n vote of sixty
two out of sixty-four, shortly after
midnight, voted to leave tho Repub
lican convention. William Fllnn, the
chairman of the delegation, made an
announcement to thnt effect nt a meet
ing of Roosevelt delegntcs held In the
Florentine room of tho Congress hotel.
The announcement aroused the wildest
excitement among the delegates, of
whom there were present about 300.
At tho height of the excitement Colonel
Roosevolt entered the room, ne asked
the delegates to suspend judgment and
to delny decision until he had ascer
tained certain facts.
Mr. Fllnn, addressing the delegates,
said:
"Many of you have heard personally
or through the newspapers of the ac
tion of the national committee prior to
your coming here. Their nctlons since
our arrival nre not altogether unex
pected. We won't hnvo them any long
er. If this thing is to continue what
Is the use of holding n national con
vention? AVhy don't we turn It over
to Penrose, Tom Murpliy, 'Big Steve'
and Scott and let the postmasters do
their business themselves."
Colonel Roosevelt was brought Into
the room and said:
"I am going to ask you to take a re
cess until I can get certain facts which
I wish to lay before you. I earnestly
counsel you not to discuss this matter
until I am able to put tho facts before
you. But I can tell you the general
outline of course which I intend to pur
sue. I will never recognize as a Re
publican convention a body of which
majority in an essential part was com
posed of fraudulently seated delegates.
It Is not the Republican party. I hold
that this is no case of an ordinary fac
tion fight."
This uction of the Pennsylvania dele
gates followed the withdrawal of tho
Roosevelt men from the credentials
committee, which had been considering
the seventy-two contested seats, and
who had planned to sit ull night.
The doors of the committee room
were suddenly thrown open by J. J.
Sullivan of Ohio, who rushed out with
the cry: "All Roosevelt men wnlk
out."
He was followed by Hugh T. Halbeit
of Minnesota, Francis M. Ileney of
California, George L. Record of New
Jersey and other Roosevelt men.
As they pushed open the swinging
doors nfter Sullivan they cried out to
the newsepaper men:
"All newspaper men come Inside and
see what they are trying to do to us."
Colonel Shay, assistant sergeant ut
arms, shouted to tho doorkeeper to
admit no one. The Roosovelt forces
shouted again for every one to come
In. Mr. Thayer called for policemen,
who pushed their way through nnd
kept the crowd from coming In.
Roosevelt's Orders, They Say.
The Roosevelt men poured from the
room, declaring they were acting under
orders from Colonel Roosevelt.
"Everybody go to the Florentine
room at the Congress," shouted one
man.
They rushed out. followed by the
crowd, nnd lu the street outside of the
Coliseum they were overtaken by Sec
retary lluyward.
"Why did you act that way?" he de
manded of Ileney. "Why didn't you
wait uutll some rules had been
passed?"
"Wo are acting under the direct or
ders of Colonel Roosevelt," retorted
Henuy.
"We are obeying a better general
than you," shouted Georgo Record of
New Jersey. "Ho told us to leave
that room and we did it,"
Notwitstaitdlng personal utterances
on tho part of Colonel Roosevelt, Wil
liam Fllnn nnd others In Colonel Roose
velt's camp, and notwithstanding tho
remarks to tho contrary of a number
of President Taft's chieftains, thuro
aro well grounded reports, based on
substantial evidences of efforts to
bring about tho nomination of a har
mony candidate for president.
A number of President Tuft's friends

friends claim 550 votes. Others In tho
president's camp claim 502 votes. Col
onel Roosevelt has but 470 votes. Sen.
ator La Folletto has thlrty-slx, the
votes of Wisconsin nnd North Dakota,
and Senntor Cummins has ten from
the state of Iowa.
Says T. R. Is Beaten.
According to tho report presented to
the convention, there are seventy-two
delegates whoso seats aro to be re
viewed by the committee on creden
tials. It Is tho firm belief of those di
rectly Interested in tho culmination of
this convention that by the time the
commit too on credentials submits Hp
report to tho convention It may be
very difficult to nominate tho president
on the first ballot Furthermore, it
may be still moro difficult to nominate
him on the second ballot
The La Follette men will not go to
him, nnd neither will the Cummins
men, and if the credentials committee
decide to overturn the recommenda
tions of the natlonnl commltteo con
cerning any part of those seventy-two
seats in dispute that decision would
be In Roosevelt's favor. The decisions,
however, would not bo sufficient, it Is
declared, to bring nbout Roosevelt's
nomination. Of ono thing the Tnft
men are certain, it Is tho defeat ot
Roosevelt as the candidate of this con
vention. Taft Men Score Again.
Chicago, June 20. Tho arguments for
nnd against the motion of Governor
Hadley of Missouri to strike from the
temporary roll as prepared by the na
tlonnl committee tho delegates whoso
seats were contested before tho com
mltteo to the number of some seventy
eight nnd to put In their places en the
roll the contestants was begun as soon
as tho convention had been called to
order by Senntor Root Mr. Root
stated that through on agreement of
Governor Iladley and Representative
Watson of Indiana each side would
have an hour nnd a half to present Its
case. Governor nadley was the first
speaker.
Former Congressman Watson moved
to refer the Hndley motion to the com
mltteo on credentials.
Governor Deneen of Illinois moved
an amendment to Watson's motion that
no delegate whoso status was In ques
tion should be allowed to vote In the
selection of tho members of tho com
mittee on credentials or on the report
of that committee. This nmendment
was In tho Interests of the Roosevelt
contingent.
Mr. Watson then moved to table the
Deneen amendment This brought tho
whole matter fairly and squarely
before the convention. If Deneen's
nmendment was tabled It meant a de
feat for the Roosevelt contingent.
If Deneen's amendment was not
tnbled It meant thnt the Roosevelt con
thlgent had won their main contention
it meant that none of tho contested
delegates could vole, and It meant ultl
mutely n clear cut majority In tho con
vention for tho Roosevelt men.
Deneen's nmendment was tabled by a
voto of 503 to 5rU Tho convention
then adjourned till noon toduy.
Hadley's Great Ovation.
Chicago, June 20. Tho session of
the convention witnessed a demon
stration. It lasted forty minutes and
served to draw all eyes toward the
llguro of Governor Hadley of .Mis
souri. It was a demonstration made
by tho Roosovelt following, to bo sure,
but It was tho Mlssourian who evoked
It and was slgnillcant In showing that
some of tho colouel's followers would
like to see him nominated. Tho rucket
lasted forty minutes. Whllo It was In
progress ono of Bill Fllnu's llouton
nnts, AVIlllnm H. Coleman, Jumped on
tho plntform. "Thrco cheers for Had
ley, our next president!" said this
Peunsylvaulan, and many of tho
Pennsylvania delegates and others
wero seen to cheer.
Tho cheer begun when Governor
Hadley camo forward to reply to a
statement mado by Representative
Watson, tho Taft floor leader. It was
lulte expected apparently, but, seeing
FOLLOWING
GOMMITTEE
Us spontaneity, tho Roosevelt peopU
at ouco seized It for a demonstration
for tho colonel, which they had been
Just Itching to make In tho hopo ot
stampeding certnln delegates to the
Roosovelt sldo before a vote was
tnkou on the question debnted as to
the right of the men seated by the
national committee lu the contested
cases to voto on the selection of the
committee on credentials.
The Hadley cheer Was thereupon
turned Into a Roosovelt cheer, but If
tho demonstration thnt followed
helped anybody that person wns Bert
Hadley. The real part of tho rncket
was for Governor Hndley of Missouri.
Thnt was perfectly plain to any on
looker. Woman Yells For Roosevelt.
A large part of tho racket stirred
up. once tho thing got going, wns
played by a woman, who seemed to
know Just what to do nnd worked
with a will. She was Mrs. Becky J.
Davis, tho wife of a Chicago Inmbcr
man, It was said. She sat in the west
gallery. Beside her sat George R.
Manchester, one of Roosevelt's New
York lieutenants nnd once secretary
of tho New York county committee.
After the nolso had been going on
about ton minutes this woman drew
nil eyes townrd her by getting up In
her seat next to the gallery railing
nnd, unrolling n lithograph of tho
colonel, began waving It and throw
ing kisses nt tho delegates on tho floor
below. She wore a big black hat, a
white embroidered gown nnd carried
a big bunch of pink sweet peas. Be
fore she got through she had been
brought down to tho floor and lifted
up to the press seats, whero she cried
"Roosovelt, Roosovelt!" while the Taft
delegates laughed nt her. Tho thing
finally got so ridiculous that the po
lice made her get down, nnd Mr. Man
chester was seen to escort her back to
her scat In the gallery.
Watson Started It
For two hours nnd a half tho dele
gates had been listening to the argu
ments for nnd ognlnst the motion of
Governor nadley that the names of tho
men Rented by the natlonnl committee
bo stricken from tho temporary roll
and the contestants put In their place.
Curiously enough, it wns Mr. Watson
himself who wns responsible for bring
ing the mention of Governor nadley's
nnme which started the ball rolling.
The Indiana statesman, In closing tho
nrgument, said that it was no timo to
decide tho question which had been
raised. This was the slgnnl for some
of tho Roosevelt delegntes to start the
outbreaks of protest, and Senator Root
had to pound with his gavel.
Mr. Watson, after quiet was restored,
continued: "My proposition Is to send
this whole question to the committee
on credentials when appointed. More
applause, from both sides this time,
and cheers. And gentlemen, I am au
thorized to say that so profoundly Is my
friend, Governor Hndley, Impressed
with the proposition thnt this conven
tion Is not In n condition to determlno
tho merits of this controversy nnd of
these controversies thnt he himself.
with certnln modifications, will favor
sending it up to the commltteo on cre
dentials." A voice, "What modifica
tions does Hadley want?" More cheers,
applause and cries of "Hndley."
Governor Hadley then walked to the
front of the platform as though to
speak and stood there beside Mr. Wat
son. In a moment there was wild ap
plauso from tho Roosevelt men nnd
cries of "Hndley! nadley!"
T. R.'s Double on Job.
John M. Keyes of Massachusetts,
generally known as Roosevelt's double,
who glories In the title, stood up In tho
alslo waved his slouch hat and coun
terfeited every move of the genuine
colonel. This only added to the excite
ment Presently n policeman went to
Keyes and spoke to him, but he
kept on yelling nnd counterfeiting the
colonel's wavo of his big black slouch
hat
Finally Assistant Chief of Police
Schcuttler walked up to Keyes, took
him by tho arm and made him go to
tho Massachusetts delegation's seats.

M. J, Hanlan delivered tho com
mencement address. Ho congratu
lated tho young people on being
fortunate enough to be tho ilrst grad
uates of St. Mary Magdalen's Paro
chial School. Ho refuted the charged
made against the church that it is
non-progresslvo and does not seek to
educato Its members. Tho desire
of tho church to educato humanity
and establish a higher standard of
intelligence and morality In this
country Is evidenced by the fact
that she is maintaining Institutions
of learning In the United States In
which nearly two million boys and
girls are educated without one cent
of co3t to tho national, stato or mun
icipal government. The church has
been ono of the greatest factors in
civilization over since the establish
ment of Christianity. When tho
Northern Tribes swept down over
Europe and conquered tho great
Roman Empire, tho conquerors wero
converted by the Roman priests and
became the missionaries of tho
Christian faith. They founded mon
asteries and other Institutions In
which tho learning of Europe was
preserved and by their faithfulness
and zeal saved tho Old World from
being plunged into an abyss of lg
noranco and vice from which It
would not have yet emerged. But
it was here In America that tho
highest ambitions of man wero to bo
realized. Here on the western
shores of tho Atlantic a nation has
arisen which bids defiance to tho
monarchies of Europe and Is might
ier than the powers of the Old
World. But tho stahility of that na
tion depends on tho intelligence and
morality of Its citizens. Hence It
behooves tho American people re
gardless of church affiliations to es
tablish and maintain schools where
in tho young people will have an op
portunity to acquire the greatest
gift, an education. Our govern
ments, national and state, aro spend
ing millions of dollars annually on
the education of tho American boys
and girls, and the old Mother Church
Is contributing her share toward the
dissemination of knowledge In the
great land of tho free. The speaker
closed by advising tho graduates to
be loyal to their God, true to the
flag under which they wero born,
and faithful to the ones who strug
gled and toiled for them and made
every sacrlflce in order to give them
the education they havo' acquired,
their parents.
Rev. Dr. J. W. Balta then gave
the award of prizes.
