The Colonel Beat to a Frazde and His Hat Kicked Out of The Ring Chicago, June 22.-With nearly 350 of the Roosevelt dele kates declining to vote and hast ning away at adjournment me toitender to Col. Theodore oosevelt the nomination of a Inew party the fifteenth Republi can national convention at the z ad of a long and tumultuous session tonight renominated Win. Howard Taft, of Ohio for president and Jas. Schoolcraft Sherman of New York for vice oresident. President Taft received 561 of t1he 1078 votes in the convention or 21 more than a majority. The decision of the Roosevelt people. under direction of their 4ader, to refrain from voting, left no other candidate near the --resident. The announcement )f the Taft victory was greeted vith cheering from his adher eats and groans and hisses from the oppositiod. When it became 'absolutely certain early today that Mr. Taft would be nominated with ,'ut great difficulty, the leaders in controlof the convention de give him as running -Iate his companion on the icket in 1908. All others dropped from the ace and Mr. Sherman was the nily candidate regularly placed before the convention. A mo tion from New Hampshire. to raiake the nomination by ac elamnation was declared out of order, There were many scat tering votes on the roll call that ~%I.envention, amid much -onfusiona'ifjourned sine die. At no time was there an indi cation of a walkout of Roose velt delegates. They expressed Sheir revolt by silence. In the confusion just before 1adjournment a resolution was adopted giving the national c ~ommittee power to declare va 'cant the seat of any man on the committee refusing to support the nominees of the regular con vention of 1912. Sherman's xote was 597. The revolt of many of Roose velt's delegates in the conven tion was open from the moment he permanent roll containing the names of the contested dele * ates was approved. A "vale dictory" statement was read in behalf of Col. Roosevelt asking hat his delegates sit in mute protest against all further pro ceedings. 1 great majority of the Roose felt delegates in the Illinois and all in the Missouri and Idaho delegates declined to follow this - bt Col. Roosevelt's .Wy 7'over the delegations from California, Kansas, Maine, Min nesota Nebraska, New Jersey Pennsylvania, South Dakota and West Virginia was all but - absolute. Most of the delegates from these States announced their purpose of helping to give Mr. Roose'elt an independent nomi nation at another ball later in tie evening. The split in the onvention occasioned no sur rise. It was but a fullfilment f predictions. that had been made during the past several day. The closing scenes of the con Lvention were marked by counter emonstrations for Taft and Roosevelt. The first test vote after the anounce of the Roosevelt vale aictory camne on the adoption of the party platform. The affirm ative vote was 666. Roosevel delegates present and not votin numbered 34. There were 5~ -noes, 36 of them from the La Follette States of Wisconsin and North Dakota. Senator Robt. M. LaFollett of Wisconsin, was placed befort the convention, but Col. :Roose velt's wishes were carried ou1 by his follower; and they re mnained silent during the call o the States for nomninations. Many of the delegates, how ever, carried out their primar' instructions and voted for th< colonel. On the voting for presiden Sthe Roosevelt delegates again a a rule remained silent. The de .tailed vote was: Taft 561 -z.oosevelt 107; LaFollette 41 C ~umins 17; Hughes 2; No -v-etng 344; absent 6.

Renr in Twain; a New Party to be Launched Chicago, June22, ex President Theodore Roosevelt was nomi nated for president on an inde- a pendent ticket tonight in the dy ing hours of the Republican na- - tional convention in which he had met defeat, amidst wildest enthusiasm. The followers of Roosevelt T gathered in Orchestra hall, less F than a mile from the Coliseum, a and pledged their support to the R former president. In accepting the nomination, Roosevelt appealed to the people of all sections, regardless of par ty affiliations, to stand with the e founders of the new party, one of whose cardinal principles, he o said, was to be, "thou shalt not e steal." The informal nomination of i Roosevelt was said to be chiefly for effecting a temporary organ ization. Beginning tomorrow, when a call is to be issued for a State convention in Illinois, the work will be pushed forward rapidly, state by state. At a later time, probably - in early August, it is intended that a national convention shall be held. - Roosevelt, in accepting the nomination tonight, said he did so understanding that he would willingly step aside if it should be the desire of the new party, when organized, to select anoth er standard bearer. NEW PARTY Chicago, June 23.-The "Pro gressive" party, born last night, was: dedicated today. In the presence of perhaps 500 men; some of them recognized leaders of the movement, others merely onlookers, the first formal step was taken. Gov. Johnson, of California, was empowered to appoint a committee of seven members to confer with Roose velt and formulate a plan of ac tion. "The movement is going steadily ahead," said James R. Garfield, of Ohio. "Those who think this is a flash in the :pan are mistaken." In the opinion of the leaders, the new party enters the field with. a formidable equipment. These leaders, however, said as to the men who took a conspic uous part in the campaign for Roosevelt's nomination, each must speak for himself. The attitude of Gov. Hadley, of Missouri, was the chief point of discussion along this line. The governor left town without waiting to declare himself. No definite idea of the plan to be followed could be obtained, and it was said that a period of several weeks may elapse before the program is decided upon. Gov. Johnson in the n..eantime will act as field marshal and in cooperation with Roosevelt will decide upon the membership of the committee of seven and guide the preliminary I work of organization. Today's meeting was held in th headquarters of the nation al Roosevelt committee- It was impossible to ascertain ho w big a proportion of the Roosevelt strength at the convention was represented, although it is said that nearly every state which sent Roosevelt delegates to Chi cago had its men there. "Clean Up the Bowels and Keep Them Clean" There are many remedies to be had for constipation, but the diffi culty is to procure one that acts without violence. A remedy that does not pertorm by force what should be accom plished by persua sion is Dr. Miles' L .axative Tablets. 'After using thenm, Mr. N. A. Waddell, - -- 31 I Washington St., Waco, Tex., says: 'Almost all my life I have been troubled with constipation. and have tried many remedies. al of which seemed to cause pain without giving Smuch relief. I finally tried Dr. Miles' Laxative Tablets and found them ex cellent. Their action Is pleasant and mild, and their chocolate taste makes -them easy to take. I am more than bg to recommend them."~ "Clean up the bowels and keep them clean," is the advice of all Ephysicians, because they realize the danger resulting from habitual con stipation- Do not delay too long, ut begin proper curative measures. rDr. Miles' Laxative Tablets are a ew remedy for this old complaint, nd a great improvement .over the athartics you have been using in the past. They taste like- candy nd work like a charm. A trial w ill convince yott. -Dr. Miles' Laxative Tablets are old by all druggists, at 25 cents a box containing 25 doses. If not found satisfactory after trial, re trxi the box to 'your druggist and h e. will return your money. MiL.ES M EDICAL. CO., Etkhart, Ind. 12 CAN DIDATES' ARDS.

Gin' rs will tell you thi.t thirteen hundred pounds of set.d cotton been side-dressed will turn off as heavy a bale of cotton as fifteen hundred pounds of seed cotton that has not been side dressed. Two hundred pounds of 4-[o-2 applied to an acre of cotton as a side-dresser will increase the yield at least three hundred pounds of seed cotton to the acre. This three hun dred pounds of seed cotton, the way you farmers have im proved your cotton, will turu off apout one hundred and twenty-five pounds of lint at twelve cents a pound will bring you $1 5.00-at ten cents a pound, it will bring you $r 2-50 and the two hundred pounds of 4-10o-2 will cost you $4.20, and two hundred pounds of 4-7-2 will cost $3-4o. The dif ference in these figures represents the extra profits which you will make on an acre of cotton by side dressing. Besides the satisfaction of having a fine cotton crop, it helps a man's feel ings, and helps his standing in the community, and helps his credit to have a fine cotton crop. The time has passed in this country when a man can maintain his respectability and raise "Bumble bee cotton." The fertilizer you use in side-dressing pays you better than any fertilizer you use. It prevents the cotton's shedding.. The reason cotton sheds is because it has not sufficient plant food. There is only a smail fraction of an ounce of plant food gets to each cotton plant when you fertilize in the Spring, and of this the rains wash away some, the grass gets some, and there is a verry little left tor the cotton plant. Now, when your cotton plant begins to fruit, there is an added strain on the plant, and just at the time the strain is greatest on cotton plant the supply of the plant has diminished and is growing less. The result is the cotton sheds its fruit People who do rnot side-dress their cotton lose from one fourth to one-third of their crop every year by shedding. The farmers of Anderson county side-dressed more last year than they ever did. You do not put enough corn and fodder in your stalls for your mules on Monday morning to last until Saturday night, and you would not think of putting enough corn and fodder in your stall for your mules in April to last until November, but yet that is what you are doing with cotton. You are trying to give it enough plant food in April to last until November. This plan will work in making cotton, a.fter a fashion, but you will not get the crops and you wvill not get the clear money that you will get if you side-dress. If you put your stock under a heavy strain, you increase their feed. Now, when your cotton is under an increased strain by reason of its fruiting it will pay you handsomely to give it ad ditional plazlt food. Do not confuse th's side-dresser of ours with cther side dressing f..rtilizer where the ammonia is derived solely from nitrate of soda. This side-dresser of ours has soda to act quickly and blood, tan kage, cotton seed meal and fish to carry $ on the work which the~ soda co mmences, and is infinitely better for the crop. Apply as early as you possibly can. Full supplies of these go.->ds kept at the Farmers Oil Mill and Excelsior Oil Mill. ANDERSON PHOSPHATE & OIL. COMP'Y Anderson, S. C. W. B. Freeman, Agt..
