CHICAGO, Aug.
address to the national
give convention bare today strikes a
keynote for his followers and sup-
porters in the new party.
It lays down the plan of battle to
be waged by the national
party. He discusses those
under twelve subdivisions,
gamely, The Helplessness of the Old
The Right of the People to
Rule; the Courts and the People;
Constructive Control of the Trusts;
Of the Wage Worker; The
The Tariff; The High Cost
of Living; Currency; Conservation;
Alaska and International Affairs.
The two old parties, he said, are
husks, with no real soul within either,
divided on artificial lines, boss ridden
and privilege controlled, each a jumble
of incongruous elements neither
daring to speak out and fear
what should be said on the vital
issues of the day.
As opposed to this incongruity and
of action he asserted that
the national Progressives platform Will
be a contract with the people with
definite and concrete provisions to be
carried out if the people ratify the
contract on election day as exactly
honestly as If it were actually en-
under the law.
A synopsis of Colonel Roosevelt's
address follows;
Neither the Republican nor the
Democratic platforms or managers
show any adequate recognition of the
mighty fact that we are now In the
midst of a great economic evolution.
This movement for
change and improvement must
be guided by both common sense and
the highest ethical standards, in or
to prevent evolution
from becoming dangerous revolution.
The Democratic party, as is
by its present record in Con-
lacks the common sense, and
the Republican party, by its record
of stolen delegates at tho Chicago
convention, lacks the ethical stand-

extorted from gambling and
in New York city is said
to way into the pockets of
higher up who are the real heads
of the graft syndicate that provides
police protection for a price to
underworld.
Information has placed in the
hands of District Attorney Whitman
by private detectives working with
him on the Rosenthal case that these
men higher up are a lawyer, a hotel
proprietor who claims strong political
affiliations and a police official.
Two police inspectors also are
to be profiting richly from graft.
District Attorney Whitman now
. convinced that Jack Rose told the
truth when he said that at least
was collected from gambling
houses one section of New York
alone.
The district attorney is not willing
to hazard a guess on the total amount
of blackmail extorted but he is con
that it runs into millions.
The private investigation is still be
ling continued into the police black-
I mailing system of which Mr. Whit-
man Is learning more each day. It
appears that for a year a perfected
system has been in operation by which
all gambling houses and disorderly
houses have been put under the
crews.
The investigation already has shown
that there always has been police
blackmail through Intimidation, by
which police officials fattened their
batik accounts, but when It was re
organized better results were
shown. Private detectives reported
to the district attorney that under
the present system of doing things
were protected from the
complaints of victims, being one
of boasts that one of the men
higher up was Influential enough to
prevent the trouble.
Whether or not such Influence could
be delivered is being investigated.
District Attorney Whitman is said
been with a list of
prominent persons who played in
various gambling houses Is said
these persons may be subpoenaed to
give information.
I An important witness In the Rosen
case has found by District
Attorney Whitman and he will not
be called upon lo appear before the
grand jury hut will be kept until
trial.
