M. T. R. HAKES THEFTISSDE from Page One.) until the 1,000 members of the convention whose seats have not been contested should themselves decide which of the contesting delegations are entitled to membership." Col. Roosevelt attacked the Taft members of the National Committee.

He did it with enthusiasm. The crowd caught the spirit and helped him with shouted comments. "I have made my fight fair and square in the open," cried Col. Roosevelt, -and I have won," he finished suddenly. This took the fancy of the crowd and the coioael had to say it again.

"It is nt so much my fight as it is yours," he said. "You bet, and we you to lead us," shouted a big fellow back in the hall. "The National Committee--and who are they?" inquired the colonel squeakily. "About fifty people, with tie ratio of honesty ranging about fourteen to twenty and the remaining thirty 'sure thing" men." There was a cheer the building. Col.

Roosevelt said: quiesce in and to condone and to accept the work of those men." "The majority of the National Committee in deciding the cases before them have practiced political thefi in every form, from highway robbery to petty larceny. Refers To Primaries. "The fraudulent Taft delegates whom the National Committee seated, for instance, from California, Washington, Indiana, Kentucky, Michigan, Arizona, Alabama and Texas, represent nothing but the deliberate attempt by certain discredited bosses to upset the free and honest expression of the people's will. "In twenty States where the rank and file of the Republican party has a chance to express their preference. I won 295 delegates, Mr.

Taft, 7, and Mr. La Follette, 3t. "In the Republican States which nelcl primaries where the people could express their desire Mr. Taft beaten over seven to one. My vic- ories have been won before the people and by the people.

Mr. Taft's have been won by the bosses and by the representatives of special privilege. He never has had. and has not no ft- a chance with the people, and I have just as little chance wherever the crooked type of politician has Map At real masters of the reactionary forces have a tremendous personal interest in perpetuating the rule of the boss in politics. They are "I address you as my fellow Re- lhe men who stancl back of the ord 'publicans, but I also and priniariiy address you as fellow Americans, fellow citizens.

The issue is both simpler and larger than that involved in the personality of any man, or than that involved in any factional, or in any ordinary party contest. "As as Mr. Taft and I are personally concerned, it matters little the fate of either may be. But. Mr.

Taft's or by his direction and in his Interest, his followers have raised an issue, which is all important to this country. "'Tonight we come together to protest agEinst a crime which strikes straight at the heart of every principle of political decency and honesty, a crime which represents the treason to the people and the usurpation of the sovereignty of the people by irresponsible political bosses, inspired by the sinister influences of monev privilege. "When, in February last. I made up my mind that it was my duty to enter this fight I had become convinced that 3Ir. Taft bad definitely and completely abandoned the cause of the people and bad surrendered himself wbolly fo biddings of the professional political bosses and of the great privileged interests standing behind them.

On Taft San. has become clear beyond the shadow of a doubt that if I had not made tbe. progressive fight it would have completely broken down. "Here in Chicago at this moment Mr.TaTttass-not one chance of sutcess. save what was given him by the actions of Messrs.

Crane, Barnes, Penrose, Brooker, Murphy. Guggenheim. Mnlvaae, Stnoot. New and their asso- taates. la the last State in which Mr.

Taft spoke (New Jersey) he permitted bnaself to be betrayed into the frank admission that he expected to be nominated because he believed the National Committee would stand are tbe men cf faith aad von, who epurn lives of soft aoA of elothfui self-indulgence, who feel to and believe' in' itbtir -fellowe, whose jhigh fealty is reserved for all ilia is good, just and honorable. who war against privilege de mand of our leaders today under standing of and sympathy with, tb living, and the vital needs of those iu the community, whose needs are greatest. We are against privilege in every form. Above all, are agains the evil alliance of special privilege in business with special business in politics. "A crisis is upon us.

Our opponents the men of reaction, ask us to stand still, but we could not stand still we would. We must either go for ward or backward. Disaster is aheac of us is we trust to the leadership 01 men whose souls are seared whose eyes are blinded, men of coh heart and narrow mind, who believe we can find safety in dull timidity am dull inaction. "Here in this city of tbe State of Lincoln I can set forth the principles for which we stand today in the words which Lincoln used fifty years ago when in speaking of the then phase of the eternal struggle betweeu privilege and justice, between the rights of the many and the special interest of the few, he said: The Eternal Strnccle. "That is the real issue.

That is the issue which will continue in this country when these poor tongues of Judge Douglas and myself shall be silent. It is the "ternal struggle between the two principles--right and wrong--throughout this world. They are the two principles that have stood face to face from the beginning of time. The one is the eternal common right of humanity, the other the divine right of kings. 'It is the same principle in whatever shape it develops itself.

It is the same spirit that says: "Tou toil and work and earn bread, and I will eat it." No matter in what shape it comes, whether from the mouths of a king who bestrides the people of his own nation and lives from the fruit of their labor, or from one race of men as an apology for enslaving another race--it is the same tyrannical "Mr. Taft's cause now depends upon the mfm who uphold the combination of crooked politics and crooked bnsineM which has been the chief of our political, but of ov OClal industrial corrup- ttea. It alat, become evj- that Mr. Taft is willing to ac- nary political leaders They are the men who, directly or indirectly, control the majority of the great daily newspapers that are against us. "Behind them comes the host of honest citizens who, because the channels of their information are choked, misunderstand our position, and believe that in opposing us they are opposing disturbers of the peace.

"All of these honest men are sedulously taught by the big, sinister men above that revolution impends if we strike at even the most obvious injustice. They are Taught to believe that change means destruction. They are wrong. The men who temperately and with self-restraint, but with unflinching resolution and efficiency, strike at injustice, right grievous wrong, and drive entrenched privilege from its sanctuary- are the men who prevent revolutions. "When I undertook this contest I was well aware of the intense bitterness which my re-entry into politics would cause.

I knew that the powers that would oppose roe with tenfold bitterness But it has been to me a matter of melancholy concern to see the effect upon some men in cities litee New Tork, Boston and Philadelphia, who lead lives that as a whole are pleasant, rather soft, and who are free from ail possibility of the pressure of actual want. At Wealthy. "It has been a matter cf concern me to see how bitter and irrational' has been the opposition to us among' a very large proportion of these men. the men who are to be found in the most noted clubs, in the centers of big business, and in the places especially resorted to by those whose chief desires are for ease and pleasure. "According their own lights, these men are often verv respectable, very worthy.

But they live on a plane of new ideals. In the atmosphere they create impostures, flourish and leadership comes to be thought of only as success in making money, and vision of Heaven becomes a sordid vision, and all that is highest and purest in human nature is laughed at, and honesty is bought and sold in the market place. "Opposed undyingly to those men FIRST STRAWRIDE OF SEASOX. Fifty Frederirktonians Go To Brad, dock and Jefferson. More than fifty of the younger people of Frederick last night enjoyed the first strawride of the season to Braddock Heights and Jefferson over the Frederick Railroad.

A special "motor" with gondola, plentifully filled with straw, attached took the party to the Heights, leaving Frederick at 5.45 o'clock. A picnic supper was served by the young ladies in the party. At the conclusion of the supper the entire party went to the dancing pavilion, which had been opened for their benefit, and danced until dark, when they resorted to skating and other amusements in the rink.

C. SITE OF HEW RESERVOIR TO BE FIXED lUIUli OR II MlEBl (MUfOJUCAL MtlZE TO 1MYXE.

This eliminates nearly al the heavy grades and would provide a better service because of pressure.

On the official map, four sites, al sufficient for the proposed new storage reservoir, are located and the water shed of each is given. The largest shed covers an area of over 7 square miles and has a maximum Other sheds are practically the altitude of 1705 feet, smaller, but same altitude. It is estimated that the dam to be built to control the smallest water shed will provide several hundred million gallons of water and the argest shed will hold something like 00,000,000 gallons with sufficient pro- ision for making additions to tbe lam in tbe future as to nearly double he supply. All the dams and sites are located an area of about 20 square miles nd are either on Tuscarora, Fishing Creek or Ox Creek. The present sys- em comes from small dams and re- eirers on these three creeks.
