The stery of the convention 'that
ratifed the aonuaatioa of Theodore
Roosevelt has keen written by a
thousand peas; it has been eloquently
proelaiased at a thoasand ratification
BxeetiagB. But no writer or speaker
Ism done or. will do the event jastice.
When yoa any that the American
people who believe in a strict and
fearless enforoeateat of 'the law aad
love a aaaa who is the personification
or' courage and honesty, nominated
Theodore Roosevelt months before the
ooaveatioa; aad when yoa add that
tea thoasand people, including the
foresaoit statesmen of the world,
yelled themselves hoarse for nearly
thirty minutes in ratification of that
nomination, yon have said tho most
that caa be said in cold words about
the republican national convention so
far as the presidential nomination is
conceraed.
Those at tho convention with sensi
bilities so calloused as to bo touched t
oalv by the excitement of a bull-fight
or a football game, were disap
pointed. But all of those whose
hearts could be touched by patriotic
sentiment and devotion to a great
leader, were thrilled with enthusiasm.
- Ia discussing the convention there
is little aeed of mentioning any name
bat that of Roosevelt. Roosevelt was
nominated -because his name was
written long ago in the hearts of the
people. The platform adopted by the1
convention is a record of the deeds
aad principles of Roosevelt. It re
flects his personality, therefore it in
spires the confidence of the American
people.
It has been charged that the plat
form was written by a few eastern
seen who ignored the demand of the
west. It is true an eastern man wrote
the platform, but Roosevelt dictated
it,, aad he heeded the demands of the
West because he is himself a type of
the west.
The vice-presidency was the only
question that promised any excitement
for the convention, and that promise
faded as soon as it was learned
deaaitely that Fairbanks of Indiana
would accept the nomination. It
be, said, however, that Nebras
ka's candidate, John L. Webster, was
ia favor at many of the western state
aeaaqaarcers, ana baa Fairbanks re
fused the. nomination, our candidate
would have made a good .showing.
Aad, by the way. Nebraska's favorite
son is big enough to look over the
shoulders of any of the aspirants for.
theoffioe, including Fairbanks him
self. And Paddy Miles of Sidney,
who would have made the nominating
speech for Mr. Webster, was not oat
classed by the wise men from the
East. His voico rang out as loud and
clear as any other in the convention
when he rose to throw Webster's vote
to Fairbanks.
Other Nebraska republicans who
did not vanish in the presence of big
company were R. . Schneider and
Okas. H. Morrill.. The former, as
committeeman, had ovey detail in
hand. He had a kind word and a seat
for every Nebraskan who wanted to
see the show. Mr. Morrill, who suc
ceeds him as national committeeman,
is also a man who always controls the
situation and doos things. He is a
worthy successor to Mr. Schneider.
Conspicuous among the visitors at
Nebraska headquarters were Governor
Mickey. Auditor Weston, Congress
man Barkett, G. W. Wattles, Edward
Bosewater and Ross Hammond. If
we were asked to name five Nebraska
republicans who have the ability to
walk arm in arm with such men as
the only Chauncev and not annear
small, we should not omit the names
of Webster, 8chneider, Morrill, Wes
ton aad Mile.
While mentioning men who 'were
active at the convention, the names of
the Nebraska delegates, especially that
of Williams of( Albion.ahould not be
omitted. As a member of the com
mittee on resolutions. Mr. Williams
drew ap several resolutions covering
the questions of irrigatioa and ratal
delivery, and by aaraest work enlisted
the support of several western deleea
tieas. Bat Roosevelt's platform was
foaad to practically cover these sub
jeoots, so Mr. Williams resolutions
