CRITICISM
A Deceit looseness on tliu part of Ter
ritorial Veterinarian Nurgnurd In hand
ling the funds of the lluard of Agrl
culture nnd forestry was the subject
of very severe criticism made by mem
bers of the board at an open meeting
this illumine.
Tlie open meeting was followed by
nil Informal executive session, repre
sentatives of tile press leaving the
room. The report that tho criticism
of the Territorial veterinarian was
brought up at the second session could
not be continued later on, commission
ers deellnliiK to say anything detlnlto
regarding It.
It was stiitc.l Hint tliu Territorial
veterinarian has overrun the money
appropriated for his department on
more than one occasion, that lie lias
spent money without obtaining author
ity through signatures to requisitions,
nnd that lie has recently went several
hundred dollars without making nn ac
count that was asked by oho of the
commissioners.
No insinuation of anything hut lack
of prompt and tleilnltu system was
made tills morning. (In the other
hand. Picsldcnt (illTurd of the board
stated to the other members that some
two wcks ngo liu had shut down uu
expenditures hy Dr. Norgnard that ho
considered unwarranted.
Tliu matter came up .In tho course
of a discussion, as to tho necessity for
spending moro money on kennels and

ECHO OF FAMOUS
LABOR AGENT
Coming as a long-delayed sequel to
tliu labor troubles of March, 1911, when
the Alaska I'uekers' Association sought
to recruit men from tho Islands for
the salmon canneries In Southwestern
Alaska, the U'DOO damage suit brought
by hlberato (lomcz, one of tho labor
ers, against prominent ottlelals and
merchants of Honolulu for restraining
li I in from going north, was called In
Circuit Judge II. K. Cooper's court
this morning.
About ten of these laborers who were
kept from hoarding the ship that was
to carry them to the cunnerles have
tiled suits, against the saino olllclals
and for similar amounts, and' It Is
likely that (lomea's hearing will bu
used as a test ease and carried on up
to the Supreme Court fur llnnl ruling
oil merits before tho remaining suits
are culled In the lower court.
The defendants, accused of conniv
ing to prevent Clonic, nnd his compan
ions from fullllllng their contract with
tliu Alaska Packers' Association, nnd
thereby causing them ,1i lost tho
amounts they were to receive from
tho packing people, ure William L.
Whitney, Judge in tliu Circuit Court;

the Territory; Sheriff William 1'. Jar

regular panel was exhausted by chal
lenges and a special venire of twelve
men was ordered by the court tills
morning, to report nt 11 o'clock. Most
of the plaintiffs In these eases are Fil

It the armory appropriation does

i he protest of Supervisor F.bcn low,
chairman of the Wavs and Means
Committee. 'Supervisor how this'
morning declared himself Hipiarcly
against handing over $22,000 for tho
armory. He sayH that the city has
other needs much inure pressing.
Moreover, ho says ho does not think
the Hoard will pass tills appropriation.
"The outside districts need $17,r,0il
that our engineer says wo must spend
on bridges or fucu the prospects of
sonic, big damage suits," ho said. "Tliu
bridges are going lo pieces. Wo need
home $.'ir,00o for Queen street paving.
Our school buildings this siimmur
need costly repairs. Tho Walanao road
should have some thousand .spent on
It. The garbage department must bo
strengthened and tliu tiro department
developed. I tell you, wo simply can
not afford, In face of theso pressing
needs, to appropriate tho $23,000."

Will one hundred or more city and

Maybe they will, and again maybe
they won't.
There appears to lie a woeful short

CHICAGO, III., June 18. With the vote an the temporary chairmanship
clown to and including the delegation from North Dakota, Senator Root of
New York, the Taft candidate, li leading by 387 to 316 for Governor McGov
ern of Wisconsin, rprung as an eleventh-hour surprise. '
It it believed that the Roosevelt forces are supporting McGovern In the
hope of effecting a combination with the followers of Senator La Folletteartd
securing a working agreement.

CHICAGO, III., June 18. The great convention hall in the Coliseum began
filling early this morning and by lOt 15 o'clock crowds were gathered, A brass
band, playing "America," was loudly cheered. Extraordinary police precau
tions are being taken. Men '. uniform and plain clothes are everywhere.
Senator Borah of Idaho had been previously announced as the Roosa.
velt candidate for temporary chairmanship, but a shift was made to Mc
Govern. The California delegation entered the halt at 11 1 30 o'clock.
The .convention was called to order at two minutes after twelve o'clock
by Victor Rosewater of Nebraska, chairman of the national committee. It
was fifteen minutes before the big hall became quiet. The secretary road
the convention' call.
Governor Hadley of Missouri, the floor leader for ihe Roosevelt forces,
started the fireworks by moving that the roll at prepared by the national
committee be amended by substituting for it the roll prepared by the Roose
vent forces.
Senator Watson of West Virginia, the floor leader for the Taft forces,
at once raited a point of order. Twenty minutes was given each side for de
bate, after which the chair sustained the point of order raised by Watson.
Hadley Immediately appealed from the decision of the chair.
Watson moved to table. Both were declared out of order.
Chairman Rosewater then presented the name of Senator Root for the
temporary chairmanship, following tho action of the national committee. Ed
die Cochens, the former Wisconsin football player and now a prominent
politician, nominated Governor McGovern of Wisconsin. Job Hedges, a col
ored delegate, Hood of Kentucky, and Groner of West Virginia seconded
Root's nomination, and Governor Johnson and Heney of California, Walter
L. Houter, the La Follette manager, and Governor Vessey of South Dakota
seconded McGovern't nomination.
Heney 'started a row by comparing the national committee to Boss Abe
Ruef. He taid tlie Roosevelt forces would stay to the finish if It took all
summer.
The vde on the temporary chairmanship began at 3:02 o'clock.
(FjK-rlal Hullo tl4i Cable.)
CHICAGO, III, June 18. From th e vtry moment of the opening of the
convention hall, the nervous tension was apparent. Policemen were station
ed at every corner and door.
The hall was brilliantly decorated, the iron-work arching overhead be
ing hidden in the national colors. The galleries were draped with mountain
laurel.
Two Taft delegates were not In evidence when the California delegation
came in. All twenty-six of the Roosevelt Californians were seated. The
women in the California delegation wars cheered.
Governor Hadley, in speaking for tho substitution of tho Roosevelt roll
for the one prepared by the national committee, cited the convention of
1864 which nominated Abraham Lincoln as a precedent for action.
Former Governor Fort of New Jersey joined with Hadley, saying that
the procedure was established in the convention of 1880.
Sereno Payne of New York opposed the motion on behalf of tho Taft
forces.
When Chairman Rosewater made tho adverse ruling on Hadley's mo
tion, there was wild tumult.
As Governor Johnson of California had the tickets of the two Taft men
on the California delegation, Tyron and Meyerfield, they were not admitted
to 'the enclosure where the delegates were seated, but stood outside the rail
ing. When California wat reached on the roll-call on a temporary chairman,
Mrt. Florence Porter, a delegate from the Golden State, called out "Me
Govern!" When the names of Tyron and Merrifield were called to get their votes
recorded for Taft, Johnson leaped to a chair and shoutedi "There are no
such delegates. Their names were put on the rolls fraudulently. You will
elect no temporary chairman by such votes!"
The protest was unavailing, and California's vote was countedi McGov
ern 24, Root 2. New York votes. Root 76, McGovern 13) Pennsylvania cast
64 for McGovern and 12 for Root, whllo Illinois counted-49 for McGovern and
9 Root.
