COURTNEY, Secretary. d-Jly24&wkly2t " (absent For The HrM. omi nr Liiiois SOME FRICTION"; BECAUSE ULL 8TATE TICKET WONT IE NAMED.. CHICAGO, JuVy a , X7. Supporter of Colonel Roosevelt in Illinois today issued a call for a state convention to, be, held in Chicago August . 3 to elect deelgates to the third party na tional convention here August 5. The delegate sto the state com en tion are to be selected at a mass meeting by wards or counties July ?7. The call does not provide spe cifically for a full state ticket. A resolution was adopted calling on Gov. Deneen and other candidates for state offices to indicate whether they would support Col. Roosevelt or President Taft. A committee is to wait on Gov. Deneen and "give his answer to the public" July 23. The call, asserting that it was made necessary by crooked politi cians and privileged classes, so stronly entrenched within the organi zation of the two old political parties, was voted on by one Roosevelt sup porter from each of the twenty-five congressional districts of. the statte.

One ltem.es leclally in the comparison was the iigrlcultural . department. When he was governor he spent $13,000 In that department ... Gov. Hooper, he t fated, was spending more than $50, 000. '. , .. Touching the whisky question the speaker was of the opinion , that the four mile law was the most artful and successful law ever passed , in the state, and it .was founded on lo cal self government. Reviewing the whisky fight in the state he said the law in the large cities could not be enforced, that it had been teeted un der a democratic and a republican governor with like results, and he be lieved the . conditions were worse than . before the saloons were out lawed, but he was willing to accept whatever the platform of the conven tion of August 15 said on that ques tion. He said that it was not within the discretion . of the executive to question a law but to make an hon est effort to have It enforced, and that if elected he Nwouid as in the past use his best efforts to see that all laws were enforced, and favored high license and other forms of . reg ulations of the saloons in the larger cities. Leaving off the back! tax question, he closed with an appeal for the na tional ticket and a - personal appeal for himself. " ; After the speaking was over Mr. McMillin was asked if he favored the enactment of laws by ; the legislature giving , the . governor power to force the civil officers, to enforce the laws where they Ignored them as they have done in the cities to which he referred.
