BEVEfllDGE IS CHAIRMAN Governor Johnson, of California, Is Slated to Be Roosevelt's Running Mate.?Senator Dixon Opens Convention.?Many Women Present Chicago.?The first session of the first convention of the new National Progressive party, of which Col. Theodore Roosevelt is sponser, was held in the Coliseum Monday and while the setting was attended by all of the usual ceremony and paraphenalia of a national political gathering, the actual proceedings were suggestive of a love-feast. _ _ Not a dissfnting voice Ivas raised during' the session. The question of negro representation from tfie' South had caused rricuon earner in me uay In the national committee, "but there was no echo of this fight on the floor of the convention. The delegates came into the hall singing and shout '' ,S5iiX 'i^^&H&Sn^^kiaSfl THEODORE ROOSEVELT. ing in their delight at the birth of the new party, and three hodra later left the building in the same happy frame of mind. Although green hands were supposed to oe at the helm, the machinery of the convention worked smoothly and efficiently. There was no roll call of delegates, but the delegate section of the floor, arranged in the same, manner as at the Republican national convention a few weeks ago, and accommodating nearly 1,100 people, was entirely filled. The alternate section, also, had its full quota of spectators as at the Republican gathering, but when the proceedings began the galleries had few empty seats. The convention leaders were enthusiastic over the showing made in the Coliseum ;?nd made the claim that no better looking. more substantial set of delegates was ever seen on the floor of a national political convention. Work of the national committee on contested delegates cases, caused a delay of nearly three-quarters of an | nour iu inf assciiiuiiug vi iuv wu Vm tion. During the wait the delegates amused themselves with songs and yells composed for the occasion, while a band up near th.er flag-draped steel rafters, and a Grand Army fife and drum corps on the stage, vied with each other in playing patriotic airs. There was a great cheer as.-Senator Joseph M. Dixon, national chairman of the party, rapped for order. This was repeated, later when the call for the convention was read, and there was even greater enthusiasm The Hall Gaily Decorated. Chicago.?The hall was gaily decorated with flags and hunting. Large canvass portraits were a feature of the decorations. Back of the stage were those of Washington, Jefferson and Lincoln. At the left of the s'.age was a portrait of Hamilton and at the right one of Andrew Jackson. Sus:. pended from the band- gallery at the far end of the hall where all could see, was an oil painting of Colonel Roosevelt. Over the main entrance was a stuffed head of a splendid specimen of a bull moose. Given Enthusiastic Welcome. Chicago.?Colonel Roosevelt arrived at 8:30 a m. Monday, lie was given an enthusiastic welcome and hurried to headquarters in the Congress hotel, j The crowd cheered as the colonel ! stepped from the train. Standing in "i- ?- < ?? hntol I nis amoniuuut' iu nvm v. u.v ; Colonel Roosevelt saiil: "'I am con-j vinced that the people will not stand for the convention of seven weeks ago. especially as it was against the interests'of the people. Ry November the men nominated at that convention will not be a factor in the race." Teddy Can Get What He Wants. Chicago ?There appeared to ce no question Monday among the dolerates but that Colonel Roosevelt would get whatever he wanted at their hands. His nomination has been depended upon to give the new party an auspicious start, ar.d if he desires to run on a platform based on the speech which-, he asserts may be termed ' anarchistic" the progressives here ire more j than anxious to give.it to him. Colonel Kcosevelt will make his "confession of faith" at the convention Tuesdnv afternoon. , - J Nature's Hints to Inventors.

DIXON. when Former Senator Albert J. beveridge of Indiana was presented as the choice of the national committee for temporary chairman. The formality of electing Senator Beveridge was not necessary, and amid renewed excitement he -was escorted to a place on the 6tage, decorated with a gold badge and handed the convention gavel. Senator Beveridge then delivered his keynote speech. The temporary chairman was given the closest attention throughout. A decided feature of the convention was the large number of women 'delegates.- This called forth great j cheering when the terdporary ciiairj man reached that part of hir, speech advocating suffrage. A big yellow banner inscribed "Votes for Women," [ was hung from one of the balcony rails. Massachusetts gave one of her women delegates a place on the resolutions committee which wiil draft i- __w# me panv pauiuiui. The committee oil resolutions which will submit the platform to the National Progressive convention was named by the various State (Ideations. William S. Pearson, North Carolina was named as a member of the committee. Miss Alice G. Carpenter of Boston named by the Massachusetts delegation as a member of the committee on platform, is said to be the first women to fill such a place at a national political convention. Miss Carpenter has bv^n sfctive as sociological worker and ?.'"?o as a writer The n. w national committee which takes the olace of the provisional committee, v m named. The commii ee includes ar.ong othI erB J. N. Willi, mson, North Carolina, and Thomas Le More, Virginia.

For permanent chairman, Judge Ben B. Liifsay of Denver. This slate was virtually agreed to by National Progressive leaders, and met with the approval of Colonel Roosevelt. Afternoon Before Delegates Arrive. Chicago.?It was afternoon before the delegates began to reach the hall in increasing numbers. They "came in?shouting in ..their enthusiasm. Three cheers were ready for almost any proportion -suggested. California's delegation, carrying the same banner which they used at the republican convention and each member with a red bandana about his neck, was greeted with prolonged cheers. The band regaled the assemblage with some popular and patroitic airs.

Women Delighted With Reception. Chicago.?Mrs. Clara R Morrison, who is a delegate to the convention and sister-in-law of Tim Woodruff, chairman of the New York de'egi.tion, Monday said: ' We are delighted at our reception by this now party. ' For ' the first time in the historv of our movement we have been put on air equai status with the men. Shall work beautifully with them. They are coining to us about everything.

HE ENLISTS FOR THE WAR ?.? The Senator Promises That if Entrusted With the Power, There Will Be Reforms That Are Reforme.?Euthusiaatic Audience Heare Speech, Chicago.?Former Senator UeverIdge of Indiana, temporary chairtmn of the convention, in sounding he keynote of the new party, made 'his characteristic speech in which he ? said in part: , ; : "The first words of the constitution are, 'We are the people,' find" .they declare that the constitut'on'i purpose is to 'form a perfect i:hionaud to promote the general welfare,' To j- io tho vcrv heart of Ihe UU JUO t nutti id v??v - - - Progressive cause." Mr. Beveridge' told in detail the purpose and program of the Progressive party. "Abus^," he said, "will only strengthen it, ridicule only hasten its growth, falsehood only speed its victory. .? "Knowing the price we murt pay, At.BFRT J. BEVERIDGE. the sacrifice we must make, the burdens we must carry, the assaults we must endure?knowing full well the cost?yet we enlist and we enlist for the war. For we know the justice of our cause, and we know, too, its cer tain triumph." "We stand for a nobler America. We stand for an undivided nnt.'gp. We stand for a broader liberty, a fuller justice. We stand for social brotherhood as against savage individualism. We stand for an intelligent co-operation instead of a reckI less competition. We stand for mutual helpfulness instead of mutual hot /! \v*o Kfnnrt for eoual rigbts as a fact of life instead of a catchword of politics. "We stand for the rule of the people as a practical truth instead of a meaningless pretense. We stand for a representative government that represents the people. "We mean to make laws fit conditions as they are and meet the needs of the people who arc on earth today. That we may do this we found a party through which all who believe with us can work with us, or rather, we declare our allegiance to the party which the people them selves founded. "For this party has grown from the soil of the people's hard ncces! sity. It has the vitality of the people's strong convictions. The people have work to be done and our party is here to do that work." Mr. Beveridge said that notorious bosses are in the saddle of both old parties, and that under this boss system, no matter which party wins, the ' people seldom win, but the bosses almost always win. "The South has men and women as genuinely progressive and others as Southern Negroes Were Barred. Chicago. ? Every Southern negro who raised a contest for a seat in the national convention of the new progressive party was barred by the concluding action of the national committee. While the permanent roll call of the convention had not been completed, yet it appeared that there would be only one negro on the convention floor. He was in the Pennsylvania delegation. Negroes from Florida, Mississippi and Alabama declared they would carry their contests to the committee on credentials. Steel Tariff Bill Goes to President. Washington.?The iron and steel tariff bill received the signatures of Speaker Clark and Acting President of the Senate Bacon, and went to President Taft for its inspection. This is the first of the tariff revision bills passed by the Democratic-Progressive alliance in the Senate, to reach the Chief Executive and close friends cf j the President express the conviction ih.it he will veto it. because no inves- I tigation of the industry ha3 been made j by the tariff board. Blue Jackets Restore Order. Washington.?American bluejackets | I and marines were landed in Nicara-1 gua for the protection of citizens of the United States and their property. The expedition, part of the force of the gunboat Annapolis, under Lieut. James A. Campbell, Jr., was landed at Corinto, the principal seaport on the Pacific side, and transported by rail to Managua, the capital. Lawlessness and threatened anarchy disappeared and quiet took their places with the arrival of the bluejackets, according , to Minister Weitzel's reports. Insisted Silk Was Changeable. One of the large Kansas City stores owes it success, in a great measure to its .policy of exchanging goods if returned in a salable condition. An exception is made when dress mate rials have been cut from the bolt One day recently a customer pur- J chased ten yards of a two-toned silk, which the clerk assured her was the most fashionable fabric of the season. When she reached home with her purchase decided, on reflection. . it * - ' . - genuinely reactionary as those in oth er parts of the country. "Yet for all known reasons, these sincere and honest Southern progressives and reactionaries vote together in a single party which is neither progressive nor reactionary. They vote a dead tradition and a local fear, not a living conviction and a national faith. They vote not for the Democratic party, but against the Republican party. They want to be free from the condtiion; they can be free i from it through the National Progressive party." Mr. Rcveridge said American business is uncertain and unsteady compared with the business of other nations, "What, then," he asked,- "must we do to make American business better? We must do what poorer nations have done. We must end the abuses of business by striking down buusiness itself. We must try to make little business big, and all business j honest instead of striving to make big business little and vet letting it remain dishonest. As the Sherman law now stands no two business men can arrange their mutual affairs and he sure that -thpy. are not lawbreakers. Thfs.Is the injtfn hindrance to the i.rrr- i i mediate s.nd permanent revival of1'1 American business. -Under the*.decrees of the court, the oil and the tobacco trusts still can raise prices un* ( justly and already have done so. "Such business chains and legal i paradoxes as the American suffers I from can he found nowhere else in the world." The speaker declared the Progressive party will accomplish reforms vi- ; tal to American business. "We mean to put new business laws ' on our statute books which will tell 4 _ ? , American Business men v?uo?. mr; i car. do and what they cannot do. The next great business reform we must i have to steadily increase American J prosperity is to change the methods of ' building our tariffs. The tariff must ho taken out of politics and treated as a business question instead of a political question. The greatest need of business is certainty. But the only thing certain about our tariff is uncertainty. Next to our need to make the Sherman law modern, understandable and just, our greatest fiscal need , is- a genuine, permanent, non-partisan tariff commission." the speaker said. 1 , 'There has not been and will not bo , any sincere and honest effort by the , old parties to get a tariff commission nor to take the tariff out of politics, j | "A tariff high enough to give Am- i erican producers the American market when they make honest goods and sell them at honest prices, but low enough that when they sell dishonest goods at dishonest prices, foreign I competition can correct both evils, a tariff high enough to enable American 1 producers to pay workingmen American wages and so arrange that tho workingmen will get such wages: a business tariff whose changes wi'l be so made as to reassure business instead of disturbing it?thiB is the tariff and the methods of its making in which the Progressive party beliives, for which It does battle and which It proposes to write Into the laws of the land." Abolition of child labor In factories, mills, mines and sweatshops and a plan for old-age pensions wero included in the Progressive platform by the speaker who incidentally favored woman suffrage Lindsey For Permanent Chairman. Chicago?Judge Lindsey's name will be presented to the committee on permanent organization by a number of its most influential members and it was said that his selection by the committee was virtually assured. The judge is a former Democrat, and is of Southern parentage, and it was felt that his selection would appeal to the South. Colonel Roosevelt said before he left Oyster Bay thut he favored the selection of a Southern Democrat as vice presidential candidate. The field was canvassed carefully by leaders of the new party and it is understood that the Colonel's suggestion was abandoned, only when it became evident,that it was impossible to decide upon the available man. It was 1 said that sentiment among the delegates in favor of Governor Johnston was so strong that his choice as Colonel Roosevelt's running mate was virtually assured, and that the leaders who predicted his nomination were merely voicing the opinion of the convention. Raid Office. Haul Out Jewelry. Atlanta, Ga.?In a raid on the law offices of Judge George F. Gober. city and private detectives seized diamonds and other jewelry valued at $1,000, alleged to be part of the loot taken in the "diamond trunk robbery" last April, when more than $30,000 in gems was stolen from a salesman's trunk in transit from a hotel to the railway station. The robbery was alleged to have .been committed by George Wrenn and two others, all of whom have been arrested. Will Not Stand For Tariff Board. Washington.?Notice was served on the Senate that under no circumwnitirl the house aeree to <1 continuation of the tariff board. Provision for the board had been placed by the senate in a number of tariff measures, but to each the house has presented an unyielding front. Senate leaders were notified that their insistance would delay adjournment. House conferees on all the bills containing the senate amendment providing for ii.e tariff board have been instructed not to yield. May Arraign Other Officials. New York.?A mass of evidence is to be presented to the grand jury out of which the public prosecutor believes, several indictments of extortion will be found against certain police officials.

FAMILY RUNT Kansas Man Says Coffee Made Him That. "Coffee has been used in our family of eleven?father, mother, five sons and four daughters?for thirty years. I am the eldest of the boys and have always been considered the runt of the family and a coffee toper. "I continued to drink it for years until I grew to be a man, and then I found I had stomach trouble, nervous headaches, poor circulation, was unable to do a full day's work, took medicine for this, that and the other thing, without the least benefit. In fact I only weighed 116 when I was 23. "Then I changed from coffee to Postum, being the first one in our family to do fo. I noticed, as did the rest of the family, that I was surely gaining strength and flesh. Shortly after I was visiting my cousin who said, "You look so much better?you're getting fat.' "At breakfast his wife passed me a cup of coffee, as she knew I was always such a roffoe drinker, but I said, .\u, wiunn. i.iu. "'What!' said my cousin, 'you quit coffee? What do you drink?' " 'Postum,' I said, 'cr water, and I am well.' They did not know what Postum was, but my cousin hud stomach trouble and could not sleep at night from drinking coffee three times a day. He w.is glad to learn about Postum, but said he never knew coffee would hurt anyone." (Tea Is Just as Injurious as coffee because it con ains caffeine, the same drug found In coffee.) "After understanding my condition and how I got well he knew what to do for himself. He discovered that coffee was the cause of his trouble as he never used tobacco or anything else of the kind. You should see the change In him now. We both believe that If persons who suffer from coffee drinking would stop and use Postum they could build back to health and happiness."

Eye-Sighl Restored After Being Given Up by Specialists A wonderful cure by MILAM Mr. W. E. Griggs, Secretary and Treasurer Westbrooks Elevator Co. and formerly Cashier Bank of Danville, says: "About ten years azo my eyesight began to fail to such an extent that it became necessary for me to consult a specialist. My trouble increased until I found it necessary to consult several others. My case was diagnosed as Atrophy of Ihe Optic Nerve, caused by impoverished blood supply. The progress of my trouble was slow but steady, with never any relief, until finally my physician advised mo that nothing further could be done. About this time, about two years ago. I could not see to read, and my range of vision was so short that I could not see anything at a greater distance than fifty or seventy-five feet I often found it difficult to recognize acquaintances when I met them, distinguishing them more by their voices than their features. In May. 190.). a friend advised me that if the physician's diagnosis was correct. MILAM will cure you. bccau. e it will purify and enrich the blood, increase the flow, and build up the system; but it will take a longtime and the im* proveiuem wm u? nun. "I did riot believe one word of this, and con- * scntej lotake MILAM because I did not think It could hurt me, and tliero might be a bare possibility that it might help :ne. After six weeks' use I began l > notice a slight improvement In my sight, which has been slow but steady and with no setback. Now I can read newspapers cvith ordinary glasses, can distinguish larife oblects two miles away, and have no difficulty aow. as far as my sight is concerned, in attending to my duties as the executive officer cf a corporation. "I am still careful not to tax my eyes unreasonably, because I realise that I am not cm id; but hope, and ain more and more encouraged a* ime passes, to believe that the continued use of !ILAM will cure ine. "I think it proper to state that my general health and strength have also improved in the same ratio as my eyesight, and I attribute this to the use of Milam. [Signed] W. E. GRIGGS."
