FAIRBANKS IS NAMED BY WOOD

CHICAGO, June 9. Nominating exVice President Charles W. Fairbanks of Indiana as Republican candidate for the presidency would assure a G. O. P. majority in the United States senate next year. Representative William Wood of Indiana said in his speech here today, placing Mr. Fairbanks' name before the convention. - Mr. Wood reviewed the career of

Ir. Fairbanks at length. He declared

the Indiana "favorite son" had been the spokesman of McKinley in the try. ing days preceding the Spanish war, was a pioneer opponent of "free silver," had done all he could 'to avert the 1912 break in the Republican party and had never "aspersed the character of or imputed evil motive to" those who left the party then. Intensely American. Mr. Wood said, in part: "Mr. Fairbanks is intensely American and stands for the best interests of American institutions and American citizenship. He believes that every citizen, whether native or foreign born, owes his entire allegiance to the Stars and Stripes, and all for which that emblem stands. He does not believe, however, that the foreign born citizen need forget the land of his birth or fail in his sympathies for the kinsmen that he has left behind, for such a person is not calculated to make a good citizen anywhere.

"That we will elect a majority to the house of representatives now seems

certain. Whether we can elect a ma

jority to the United States senate is a different proposition. We can do it,

and we will do it, if we are wise in our selection of a candidate for president. Indiana has two United States senators to "elect. If they are elected, we are reasonably sure of electing a sufficient number in other states to give us a working majority in the sen

ate after March 4, 1917. Hinges on Indiana. - "If we fail to elect the two senators

in Indiana, the United States senate

will remain Democratic for at least four years, to come. ; "The Democratic ticket is' already

named. The convention in St. Louis next week will simply confirm it. It will be Wilson and Marshall. Wilson will be renominated not because the majority of the Democrats want him, but because not to nominate him would be an admission of the failure of his administration, and an acknowledgment in advance of defeat. Marshall will be renominated for the sole purpose of aiding the Democrats to carry Indiana and elect their two United States senators." "He stands for preparedness of every kind. Preparedness against war and preparedness for peace. For such a preparedness against war as the importance of our nation and its relation to the other nations of the earth need to command the respect of all the nations of the earth; mighty enough to resist all invasion, and to enforce the rights of all our citizens on land and on sea. Fairbanks Man of Peace. "He is essentially a man of peace, and to secure the great and lasting blessings of peace, and to enforce he rights of our country or its citizens, would be his only reason for war. "Indiana has long been, and will this year be the great battleground of the country. It is not only important that we elect a Republican president, but it is also important that we elect enough Republican senators that we may have a majority in the United States senate. It is also important

that we elect a majority to the house of representatives.

ination. They communicated with

George W. Perkins and other Progressives and both sides agreed that chances for peace would be greatly increased if no nomination was made by either convention today. Senator Lodge sat at 1:50 o'clock that he did not believe Colonel Rooseveltwould be asked to come to Chicago. "The colonel will not come," he said. "He could not get here in time to help." Lodge, when told that the convention could fix that by recessing until Monday, said he did not think any such arrangement possible. He said the Republicans would likely complete their program some time tomorrow night.
