BEAT TO A FRAZZLE I ? F RETURNS SHOWS BIO LEAD FOR PRESIDENT TAFT IN NEW YORK PRIMARY ? Itoosevelt Supporters* Are Indignant, and Claim Mix-up In Delivery of 1 Jul lot Boxes, and Do Not Concede Defeat?McKlnley Jubilant Over Outcome in New York and Indiana. Victory for organization delegates to the Republican National Convention, who were opposed in seventeen Congressional districts or New York State at Tuesday's primaries by candidates named by the Roosevelt supporters was claimed an hour after the polls had closed Tuesday night In the State and county organization chairman. The primary elections in New York City where most of the contests arose, were made chaotic by one of the worst ballot mixups known for man? years, and returns from the election were considerably delayed. Win. Barnes, Jr., chairman of the Itepublican State committee, claimed at 10 o'clock that the opposition "by the highest possible estimate" would not win more than seven out. of the ninety seats in the National Conven; tion, which the State is entitled to No statement on the result had been issued from tlio Ttoosevolt headquarters up to two hours after the polls closed. 4 County Chairman Koenig claimed _.J?* l ? 2 .? K,, ? Victory lu 111a own uioii jci uy cv ? uic of 9S0 to 70 and declared that the returns from about ton per cent of the election districts indicate a ratio erf voting of about 8 to 1 against the opposition, lie claimed tlie election of organization delegates in every district. Representative McKinley, director of the national Taft bureau, Tuesday . night gave out a statement from Washington on the results of the primar*vs in New York and Indiana, lie regards the results as a complete vote of confidence in President Taft aud his administration. "Republicans do not need to be reminded of the slogan, which has verified itself so often as a guide post in political events 'as New York and Indiana go, so goes the nation' In national elections," says Mr. McKinley's statement. "Republicans throughout the whole country will do well to pause and reflect before further opposing the renomination of President Taft." A statement by John W. Hutchison, Jr., of New York, Taft manager in that city, given out at headquarters here tonight, says the New York primaries today indicate practically a solid New York delegation for President Taft in the Chicago Convention. The Roosevelt, executive committee issued as a statement a telegram from Judge C. H. Duell, chairman of the New York city Roosevelt committee, saying the balloting had been delayed and interfered with by nonarrival of ballots, and that the names of Col. Roosevelt's delegates had been left off entirely in some instances. Judge Duell telegraphed, in part, as follows: "It was an entire breakdown of the election machinery. In several districts the regular election inspectors were removed by the county organization just 8s tlio polls opened. In several election districts in Brooklyn the ballots did not arrive at all. In Staten Island, where Chauncey Depew was a candidate, no ballots arrived untU 5 o'clock, and half the districts were without ballots until 8 o'clock." Taft is l)oe?Ilglited. Shortly after midnight President Taft called State Chairman Barnes and County Chairman Koenlg over the telephone and warmly congratulated and thanked tnom for victory in the primaries. The President began receiving bulletins, at 10 o'clock last niglit and half ari'dflbirr later was satisfied that ho would nave 83 out of the 90 delegates selected. Though Obviously delighted over tho result, had no statement to make, $5 * , HOARD (ilYKS I P MONEY. Collected Nothing Hut npcnt rour Thousand Dollars.

All tho world over Easter Is a season of great rejoicing, as everything begins to cast off the dinginess of winter and nature herself exhibits tho spirit of resurrection. * * * The Easter festival of our forefathers covers a period of fifteen ilnvs rP)if> wnnl.- liofflrmiiHi' with TV!<ia_ ter Sunday was almost entirely given over to sport and games and general merry making. * * Easter is a movable festival. It Is always the first Sunday after the full moon which happens upon or next after the twenty-first day of March; and if the full moon happens upon a Sunday, Easter day is the Sunday following. * * # The sacred festival of Easier has been appropriately termed "the queen of festivals." It has been observed from the foundation of the Christian religion, and is celebrated in every part of the Christian world with great solemnity and devotion. * * * There are many superstitions connected with Easter Sunday which are significant of the season, and are almost as imperative as laws. One of these is the necessity of having something new to wear on this day in order to insure happiness for the coming year. Hence the Easter bonnet. * * * Palestine, the spot where the resurrection we commemorate took place, is supremely emblematic of the season, because there the spring suddoitlv and 'ill f h r> vnivlnru VI V 1 * t J li I U O k V/ & V. * ?

VI U1 w {mcl flowers spring up as though a magic wand had been waved over the land, for the excessive dreariness of winter is broken in the orient when it is still winter in western lands. * * Of all the holidays of the year, Christmas and Easter stand more prominently on the page of history than any others. Throughout all the initiations and vicissitudes that have entered into the world's history during the past two thousand years, the two festivals that commemorate respectively the birth and resurrection of the Man of Nazareth still shine with a luster that remains unfaded [after a lapse of twenty centuries. * ? * While Easter reminds us of the resurrection, it may benefit us to call fresh to memory a few facts regarding the burial of the Son of Clod. [.Joseph was that day, mourner, sexton, livery man. Had the entire charge of the whole occasion. Only four people attended the burial of the King of the Universe. Let this he consolatory to those who through small means or lack of largo acquaintance, have but little demonstration of grief at the grave of their dead. It is not necessary. A long lino of glittering equipages, two rows of silver handles, casket of costly wood, pall bearers, scarfed and gloved, are not necessary. * * Easter Plant ^Legends. The willow was used for the scourages and ever since it has drooped its arms in misery. The . dder is commonly supposed to be iho tree upon which Judas hanged himself, and it is not even to bo touched as firewood. However, it affords a safe refuge in a storm, for not even lightning will deign to etriko it. The wood sorrel was standing at the foot of the cross and received some drops of the precious blood. These sho still carries. The Italians have the same legend and call this little blosson "alleluia/* as if tho very flowers rejoice in the great gift of tlio world. Tho scarlet anemone too, Is said to boar tho stains of Christ's blood. Tho Christian legends connected with plants generally explain their behavior during Passion week. Tho aspen still shivers with remorse because when Christ passed, it had boldly faced the heavens instead of bowing its head in company with tho other trees. The Savior cast one iook 011 it and the memory of that sorrowful glance is handed down oven to this generation. ? ? .? Gave Pig Sum to the Poor.

MAKES A BITTER SPEECH Ho Alleges That "Infamous" Methods Used Against Him in New York Primary anil "Frauds" Perpetrated in Indiana and Colorado Conventions Won Their Votes for Taft. Col. Roosevelt's most stinging campaign speech thus far was delivered at Chicago on Wednesday night. ITo fairly raved and lashed his opponents furiously, charging some of them with using fraud and trickery to defeat him. Col. Roosevelt said it was a "fighting speech." It was delivered before a throng which packed the auditorium and cheered him enthusiastically. The primaries in New York furnished f h r* tovt fnr his enoonli n n rl ho n Iforl n number of instances in which he said his opponents had resorted to improper practices to defeat him. He expressed belief that in the great majority of districts of the country the people were with him and that the opposition was attempting to defeat him by methods which he characterized as "infamous." Part of his Speech was devoted to "big business." Ho opposed "our prseent policy of chaos" and gave his own ideas of the methods which should 1)0 pursued to insure strict regulation of large corporations. Chicago gave him a lively welcome. Crowds cheered him at the station when he arrived and whenever he appeared during the nine hours of his stay there. During his brief stay in Chicago, Col. Roosevelt lound time to meet the leaders of the Roosevelt movement in Illinois and several hundred political workers in Chicago. In his speech he said: "So much, friends, for what I have tc say about business. It is a very important subject, but there is a still more important subject that 1 wish to touch upon. Now, the funda meniai issue in mis ngni is an issue of honesty, decency, fair play. Have the people the right to rule? Have the masses of the Republican party the right to express their will as to who the nomination for the Presidency shall be? Are they to be bullied and defrauded out of that right to and is the nomination to ho entrusted to the representatives of political and financial privilege, the representatives of the powers of pillage, crooked business, work through the lowest kind of political machinery and count on the silence or support of every newspaper that is owned or controlled by, or directly or indirectly, responsive to those great financial powers tliat work in the darkness? "Now, I am using strong language, because only strong language will describe the facts as they actually are. I shall give details. This is not an ordinary factional fight. It is far more important even than any ordinary party fight. The issue is in substance whether the American people are fit and able to govern themselves or whether they are to be governed by thos emachine politicians whose alliance with the worst forms of big business has produced ninetenths of the corruption and scandal of American public life." Col. Roosevelt said that in many parts of the country the opposition was counting for success oil "methods which I can only characterize as infamous." lie asserted that President Taft had committed himself to the doctrine of the rule of the people by "a representative part of the peo pie." "In pursuit of this theory of government,' no continued, "the President's political fortunes are now committed to the political machines in the various States which are led and controlled by men like Mr. Tawncy, in Minnesota; Mr. Keeling, in Indiana; Mr. Penrose, in Pennsylvania; Mr. Ballinger, in Washington; Messrs. Barnes and Koenig, in New York; Mr. Gallinger, in New Hampshire; Messrs. Guggenheim and Evans, in Colorado; Mr. Aldricli, in Rhode Island; Mr. Cox, in Ohio, and Mr. Liorimer, in Illinois. These are the men who, when his theory is translated into actual practice, actually appear as that representative part of the people which is to govern all the rest of the people." . ?

I The Charlotte Observer, inveterate anti-Bryanite and a supporter of Taft, thinks that "Colonel Roosevelt's failure should afford wholesome discouragement to Colonel Bryan against attempting, either before or at the Baltimore convention, anything like the same thing." What has Colonel Bryan to do with Colonel Roosevelt? asks the Charleston Ev- j t\ i ening Post, which goes on to point out that the great Nebraskan is not pushing himself forward for anything from his own party or any other. The Post says Bryan "is neither a candidate for his party's nomi- I nation nor does he threaten to wreck his party's fortunes, if it will not have him. Ho is not trying to destroy a leader of his own selection and promotion, nor is he betraying another whom he urged to the fray. Thero is no parallel between the activities of Mr. Bryan and Colonel Roosevelt, and an attempt to make such appear is a perversity of reason. Mr. Bryan is concerning himself for the interest of his party, as every good member of the party should do, and lie is doing a great deal moro f f\h n nn tf ov an/I cnt o/moa IV/JL Iliu , CII1VIUUL J Cl 11 * A Pll than most of those who are picking at him all th? time. It is rather curious how the obsession regarding Mr. Bryan affects va- . riously minded Democrats. While the K Observer, seething with antagonism I to Wood row Wilson, as well as to Rrvnn himself, is warning against an attempt by the Nobraskan to seizo once more the leadership) of Uie Democratic party, here is Mark Sullivan's, the Washington watchman of Collier's Weekly, pointing out that the course that is being pursued by the very element of the party of which the Observer is an exponent * may have the effect of bringing Bryan again into the forefront. "No reflection comes more often to the student of history," says Sullivan, "than the frequency with which plotters overreach themselves. One of the results of the deadlock which the reactionaries are brining about * between Wilson and their favorite * three is the opportunity for Bryan to step in and seize the prize. Bryan and his friends are acutely conscious of this, and the course of events gives him constantly increasing encouragement. Bryan has more than once been the choice of more voters than any other man; today, his one fatal economic mistake is farther ^ back in quickly forgotten history than ever before, and there is a generous sentiment that when Democratic victory comes ho should reap [tie harvest." The Post says tills Is "very fino ind fanciful; useful, too, as a warn- W In# to the overzealous opponents of Wilson, but otherwise unreal and unmerited as a suggestion of any purnose on the part of Mr. Bryan. The irincipal difference between Mr. Bryin and Colonel Roosevelt Is In tlio matter of sincerity. They frequently ?neak the samo political language? hough Mr. Bryan invariably says it first?but Mr. Bryan means what he lays, sticks to his declarations, even o the point of sacrifice, while Mr. ttoosevolt says things merely to pro- * mote his own interests and abandons lis saying whenever convenient to lis purposes. Mr. Bryan has made t perfectly clear that ho is not a candidate for the nomination and ^ here is not the slightest reason for lelieving that he desires to take advantage of any condition or circumstance to put himself once more at he head of the party as its nominee or the Presidency. If the various ichools of thought within the Dem icrauc ioi(i wouin oniy lot Mr. nryin alone, except for tho adoption of he hotter things ho recommends and llustra.tes to his party, they would lo much better for themsolvcs and or their party and for their counry." .
