Gov. Hiram Johnson of California, seconding the nomination of Governor McGovern, was greeted with a storm of cheers which was followed by a wave of hisses as he declared “Cali- fornia will cast 26 votes for Theodore Roosevelt.” “Here and now I serve notice in be- half of the state of California that in this convention there will be 26 votes on every question that concerns that state. “The gentleman who preceded me s2id this convention took no chances with Senator Root. I say that the con- vention and the great rank and file of the people take no chances with Gov- ernor McGovern.” Governor Johnson sald Governor Mec- go\;ern would give everyone a square eal, “And I want to serve notice right here and now,” he added, “that we deny the right,.the great republican state of California denies the right, the rank and file of the republican party denies the right, of any mortbund natlonal committee to select a chair- man for us. We deny the right of any set of repudiated men to do this, and we won't tolerate it.” Johnson was cheered anew as he climbed down from the platform, Negro Delegate Seconds Root's Nomi- nation. Confusion resulted from the effort of J. Edmund Wood, a colorea delegate from Kentucky, to second the nomina- tlon of Senator Root. He declared him the ‘greatest statesman” In the country. “The statement has been made that the negro will repudiate his instruc- tlons,” he sald. “The negro will obey the wishes of his constituency and will vote as his instructions sa Chicago 2; Philadelphia 1.

Heney 8tood, red-faced and persipiring, at the front of the stage. His reference to A. N.

Once more the tumult. Again a semblance of quiet. “‘Blg Steve' helped to make this roll of delegates.” Another interrup- tion of jeers, hisses and catcalls. He- ney stood for several minutes facing the disorder. “Thirty out of 52 members of the national committee who prepared the temporary roll of this convention came from democratic states which will not give us a single electoral vote to a republican nominee in November.” “Tell us something more about ‘Big Steve,’” sald Mayor Hellman of Ev- ansville, Ind., during the next inter- ruption of Heney, > “I'll refer you to Murray Crane,” responded Heney. “Got to Hear Me Out if It Takes All Summer.” o Mr. Heney turned to Chairman Rosewater, and asked for order. “I'm doing the best I can,” said gosewater, rapping and crying for or- er, “Are the friends of Mr. Taft afraid to listen to the facts?” asked Heney, in a lull of the clamor, “No; we're listening,” called mem- bers of the Indlana delezation. “You've got all the advertisement there is in 1t,” shouted Delegate Jerry “"?odeu of Indiana, “why don't you quit?” “You might as well hear me out,” said Heney, “for you've got to hear me if it takes all summer.” Finally Heney resumed, still inter- rupted by frequent hisses and jeers, “Before voting,” he said, “it is pre- pared that a majority shall be se- cured for Mr. Root by using the roll framed by the national committee and by using the 68 fraudulent votes placed in this convention by that committee. Remember, after the election of a tem- porary chairman,,these 68 fraudulent votes will be represented on your cre- | dentials committee.” Warning by Sergeant at Arms. The uproar broke out amew, and in the midst of i, Sergeant at Arms Stone stepped to the front and said: “The chairman wishes to announce that unless the speaker is treated with respect those who treat him with dis- respect will be removed from the Dbuilding.” “These seventy names,” continued Heney, “have been placed on that rol: under the leadership 8¢ *Big Steve' of Colorado and Crane of Massachusetts and Penrose of Pennsylvania, and will hand control of the credentials com- mittee to the men who have perpe- treated this theft of delegates.” Heney Appeal to Taft Men. “In other words,” sald Heney, “tha proposition is this: Shall a corrupt Judge sit on his own case in this con- vention I appeal to your common sense and to your honor to let a man be elected here as temporary chairman who is not on elther side in this con- troversy. “Again I appeal to every Taft man who does not want to see his party wrecked to vote for Governor MeGov- ern.” Mr, Heney was allowed to conclude in comparative quiet.

The sensation came when Walter L. Houser of Wisconsin, Senator La Fol- lette’'s campalgn manager, declared the Wisconsin _ delegation, obeying the ‘wishes of Senator La Follette, bad de- cided to support no candldate for temporary chairman. “Men have spoken here today, claim- ing to represent the sentiment of Wis- consin,” he declared, “1 am here to say ibat mneither they authorized nor do they represent him. In order that his record may be kept clear, I desire to suy that the Wisconsin delegation met this morning and decided to support no_candidage for temporary chairman. ‘When Hauser had concluded his statement, Lawrence Y. Sherman of Illinois ,attempted to introduce , the resolution agreed upon last night by the Roosevelt delegates, providing that no election of tgmporary or otheroffi- cers of this convention and no motion, resolution or other procedure shall be taken as the act of this convention, or have any effect, unless it shall re- ceive on a roll call the affirmative vote of five hundred and forty dele- gates whose seats are uncontested, Rosewater, pounding his gavel, de- clared the resolution out of orde Sherman shouted, the delegates she er and Rosewater pounded the table. This performance was continued for several minutes. Meantime delegate Lee Gates of Cal- ifornia had the floor protesting in ad- vance against the votes of the del gates from the ninth Alabama district. In the meantime Cochems, who first nominated Governor McGovern ,got a hearing . He gaid the delegation voted 16 to 11 against the presentation of a candidate, “as announced at first,” he sald, “I presented the name of Gov« ernor McGowern in my individual ca- pacity as a La Follette delegate from ‘Wisconsin.” This ended the nominations, The Rollcall Begins. former vice president Fairbanks and James B. Watson led the Root voters. Maine Solid For MoGovern. Senator Root was credited with one vote on the first announcement of the Maie vote but the delegation pro- tested and the roll was again ‘Willlam B. Kendall shouted “McGov- ern” in such a way that it was inter- preted “Root” by all the reading clerks, The recount showed a solid Maine delegation of twelve for McGovern. McGovern Gets Four from Mississippi. In calling the roll many of the state delegations recorded their preference without incident. In others there were one or more features which recelved attention. For instance, In Mississippi MeGovern gained four of the 20 votes. Omne of these was Charles Bauks, the negro delegate whom the Taft leaders accused of attempting to bribe Taft delegates to desert to Roosevelt. Governor Hadley led the MoGovern votes in the Missouri delegation. All of the Roosevelt delegates at large and 20 of the district delegates follow- ed his lead. The Missouri delegation divided: Root 16, McGovern 20. Mon- tana's eight votes went solidly for Root. This is the home state of Sen- ator Dixon, manager for the Roosevelt movement. Woodruff Votes for MoGovern. When the turn of New York came, Elihu Root was the first name called. Senator Root was not seated with the delegation and it was announced that he would not vote. The Roosevelt del- egates cheered wildly when Timothy L. Woodruff voted for McGovern. For- mer Governor Fort of New Jersey led the cheering. The final vote of 76 for Root, 13 for McGovern, led to more cheers. Nine of North Dakota's 10 La Fol- lette delegates voted for MeGovern. Pennsylvania voted 64 for McGovern and 12 for Root. Shouts of “Thief!” “Robber!” George W, Newcomer, alternate for Allen F. Cooper in the 234 district, voted for Root. Cooper is a Roosevelt man, but was too ill to attend the con- vention.
