Show MONTANA REPUBLICANS IN MIDDLE OF ROAD MISSOULA. Mont., Sept 15. The Republican Re-publican state convention adjourned at 10:30 tonight after as harmonious a session ses-sion as the history of the party in the state shows.

At the night session a compromise platform was adopted which was the result re-sult of a heated session "of the resolutions resolu-tions committee lasting six hours. The contest In the committee was over the introduction of a resolution which indorsed in-dorsed Mr. Roosevelt to an extent which the standpatters thought was slighting to the administration. The compromise H platform indorses both Taft and Roose- H veil and comrnendB the Montana con- H gre.fslonal delegation. Speeches were H made tonight by Senators Dixon and Car- B ter and former Senator Mantle. H |
