| _THE BEE: OMAHA, SATURDAY, JUNE nounced the convention whooped its approval, £ Afterward Chairman Robins fol- lowed a suggestion that the conven- tion be given an opportunity to ex- press its sentiments on the questions. He asked all those who favored the principle to rise and almost the entire throng stood and cheered. Chairman Robins said the latter action of the delegates was a “splendid “testimon- ial” of belief in prohibition. =~ Dean Lewis instead of moving im- mediately the adoption of the plat- form proposed that the platform be left as .unfinished business and final approval be. postponed out of defer- ence to the peace conference commit- tee.” His motion was adopted with only a few dissenting votes. The vote strikingly showed the temper of the ‘convention to IWIIE the “end of negotiations of the peale ce .| before precipitating nominations. The Stick Arounds. A majority of the delegates desir- ing to be on hand to nominate Col- . |onel Roosevelt at a moment’s notice if their leaders thought it advisable remained in the hall. Reading of a bulletin by Secreta: 0. K. Davis telling of the Roosevelt demonstration ‘in the rerubliun con- vention was met with wild applause. When Secretary Davis announced that Colonel Roosevelt's name had been cheered in the colisenin for thir- ty-five minutes the progressives broke into a wild tumult and started with all the enthusiasm of the first day to yell for the colonel. The leaders made every effort at first to prevent pa- raders from going across the crlnlorrn but throughout the hall the delegates showed their temper and when the band struck up “Marching Through Georgia” they finally pushed through the opposition and marched to the rostrum, FUGHES PLACED I¥ NONTNATION Demonstration Followi:; f‘~-r~~uu- tion of Name of Tustice to Re- publicans Lasts Long.

Illi- nois was on its feet, every delegate waving a blue baninerette with Sher- man's name and pictures, The Illinois alternates in the rear waved back and \| the band played “Illinois” as the-dele- gates joined in. : The Hamilton club filed slowly in soon after the demonstration started, filed past the platform, down the cen- ter aisle and out. Waving their Sher- man banners the Illinois delegates be- %m to march with the state's standard orne aloft in front of them. When the Sherman demonstration had been under way just fifteen mip- utes Senator Sutherland, who was still in the chair, tried to restore order and hurry up the'proceedings. He pounded the desk vainly, the Sherman men on the floor angd in the galleries resisting the attempt to check their favorite son demonstration, - They kept it up. Soon former Speaker Cannon joined them and they rallied to him for an- other outburst. When twentrtwo minutes had passed, Mr. Sutherland pounded vig- orously and, raising his voice, or- dered the roll call to proceed, which it did in great noise and confusion.

In- diana was called and Representative Wood of that state ascended the plat- form, It ‘was some minutes before he could proceed. The police were in- structed to restore order, but ap- parently the disturbance was largefy in_the galleries. Mr, Wood finished at 3:41 and the Indiana. delegation began cheering. Paraders bearing a large American flag and a banner inscribed “Fair- banks for President,” marched around the hall while the band played “On the Banks of the Wabash." . Some of the Kentucky delegates igmed in ag the band played “My Old entucky Home” for them. Shout for Hoosier. After twenty-four minutes of shout- ing for Sherman order was restored, and . Congressman Wood of Indiana presented the name of C. W. Fair- banks. .

In the gallery, directly behind the chair- man, a woman stood in the front row hatless, and an American flag draped over her shoulders as a wrap, waving another smaller flag, while beside her stood a coatless rooter, shouting rythmic calls, At 4:11, when the demonstration The THOMPSON-BELDEN STO HOWARD AND SIXTEENTH STREETS The ] une i Bl Py s et S, s 1| ™ T e tors by ¢ Indiana an H both conventions '!:tlmed or the | tions still are wodix:(n.

B. had gone on for thirty minutes, Chair- man Harding, who had resumed the chair, began to pound for order. Hisses and catcalls greeted the re- fusal of the Fairbanks crowd to quiet down, and met with defiant calls, It was just thirty-two minutes before order had been sufficiently restored for the roll to go on. ‘Orders It to Go On. While the floor still was in con- fusion Chairman Harding ordered the roll call to go on, and former Repre- sentative M. E. Kendall took theé)lat- um- mins. While Mr. Kendall was speaking it was arrangcd that Senator Wads- worth of New York was to be recog- nized to present a resolution amend- ing the rule governing the seconding speeches. It limited seconding speeches to two, of five minutes each. Where there are more than two, but two minutes shall be allowed te €ach. The Roosevelt people had sent to the chair early in the session a list of eight speakers to make seconding speeches. Kendall. concluded with a burst of : cheers on his final sentence, Kendall departed from the.text of his prepared speech devoting his talk to a plea for harmony with the - rogréssives and reciting why _ the ‘I)owa delegation offered Senator Cum- mins as the man best equipped: for that work. The Towa delegation broke: loose when he finished at 4:37. Gophers Join In. - The Minnesota delegates joined the Towa men in parade. It was stated on the platform that Senator ‘Fall of New Mexico would be the next speaker recognizéd and that he would nominate Colonel Roosevelt. . South Dakota joined the Cummins demonstration as did Nebraska. “- The chairman rapped for order after the demonstration for Cummins had lasted eighteen minutes. Senator Fall of New Mexico took the platform to name Roosevelt. It seemed as if Senator Fall's ref- erence to Colone! Roosevelt brought enerally more applause from the gal- Ferics than from_ the floor. There were cries of “Hughes” and: the convention was in an uproar. A wave of hisses swept over the hall. Senator Harding rebuked the hissers and threatened to clear the galleries. When Fall resumed he told the con- vention that at any rate the candi- date for whom he spoke would be “heard by all the peopre of the United States.” RE The Store for SHIRTWAISTS A Sale Saturday of Waists for-- ‘1% Slightly soiled and mussed from showing, but the low price will amply repay for one freshening, which is all that is necessary to make them crisp and new.
