A WILSON GATHERING.
What promised to be a real democratic con
vention at San Francisco has seemingly degen
erated into a Wilsoniant ratification meeting.
William Jennings Bryan, who was expected to
perform something akin to miracles, is standing
around like a bound boy at a husking bee, and
attracting about as much attention. His anti
League of Nations plank has been knocked into
several different shapes of a cocked hat, while
, his proposal to hitch the donkey alongside the
J-. ,k. ....... ,u. ...,U
lauici iu uiag iuc waici wauii aviuaa inc nuuu
also has met failure at the outset. He may
recover something from the wreck, but the
main works is in the hands of the enemy, the
same being the Wilson machine, and Bre'r
Bryan will again have to be content with, the
crumbs.
We had thought that the superlative degree
a?
of fulsome flattery and sycophantic adulation
already had been attained, but the message sent
'f1 by Chairman Cummings to the president reaches
'!. a new and unexpected mark in the, dispensation
of taffy. Why drag in Jefferson and Jackson?
What. did either of those eminent and respecta
ble leaders of democracy 'ever do to warrant
their being classified with the present incum
bent? The. mantle Chairman Cummings refers
to as falling from their shoulders would hardly
make a neck-tie for Mr. Wilson, were he actually
expanded to the Brobdignagian proportions his
worshippers profess to view every time they
look in his direction.
With the convention under perfect control,
the White House machine ought to execute its
will with neatness and dispatch. Nothing will
come from the Auditorium at San Francisco

of the course of the administration. All the
autocratic and dictatorial efforts of the president
will be endorsed by those who profess devotion
to the simple doctrine of Thomas Jefferson; alt
the blunders of Newton E. Baker and Josephu.
Daniels, Albert Sidney Burleson and jthers of
the bureaucrats who have mismanaged the gov
ernment so long will be approved, and the most
recklessly extravagant and notoriously incom
petent administration in our history will emerge
from the furnace of party real without even the
smell of burned wool on its garments,
Mr. McAdoo ought to come forth as a can
didate, just as it has be:n ordained for many
months. The line of descent of the Wilson dy
nasty is thus made direct. Privileged to frame
the platform, choose the issue and name the can
didate, the leadership of Mr. Wilson is one thing
that is beyond dispute at San Francisco. - How
it will. bear up under the heat of August and
withstand the chill of autumn remains to be
seen, but a good safe guess is that the voters
are not going to be fooled again by the specious
promises of an organization that has performed
so miserably.

Key-Noting at San Francisco.
As might have been expected, Homer S.
Cummings whaled into the republican party
with all his might, while throwing all the bright
light possible on his own party at San Fsancisco.
A "keynoter" who would do less than this
scarcely fits his calling. Yet, we are fain to
agree with Mr. Bryan that the speech is as no-
table for some of the things it omitted as it is
. j for those it included. Senator Robinson, who is
A to be oermanent chairman of the convention.

it
took up a. Jew of the points Mr. Cummings over
looked, and tried to exculpate his party's head,
from responsibility for America's unprepared
ness for "war. The record is too clear on this,
and the effort will be a failure, just as will the
: further effort to evade the palpable mistakes
ygt made in the conduct of the war. Mr. Wilson's
"stubborn refusal to accept aid or counsel from"
"any but his own partisans, and from mighty
..-few of them, must bear its legitimate fruit.
tfc Mr. Bryan, in his analysis of the Cummings
' jj speech, taunts the national chairman with being
j "afraid of a corpse," referring to prohibition,
j': but a close reading of the great commoner's
$' critical article fails to disclose any reference to
W. the League of Nations. It is plain that Mr.
jgi Bryan also knows when a subject is too hot to
g handle. ,
wjj -Nothing that has been said at the convention
so far suggests a slogan for the campaign. Mar
$8. tin J. Glynn, at St. Louis, furnished a battle cry
jj'that won for the democrats in 1916, but the
? shibboleth for embattled bourbonism has not
yet been sounded at the Golden Gate. Perhaps
fi it will be: "Thank God for McAdoo he messed
up the railroads." In fact, the key notes already
4 sounded do not presage a paen of triumph for
!J; , November, but rather a dirge for democratic
hopes.
W :: "Townleyismw in Minnesota.
t t. .
Interest in the Minnesota primary election
'ill was greater, perhaps, in the east than in its
immediate vicinity. That the Non-Partisan
fgf league was able to nominate but a single state,
if officer on the republican ticket is a matter for
W congratulation, but that it did succeed in getting
il 'through quite a group tof names on the legisla-
U tive . UCKCt is occasion xo ucmanu vigilance on
part of the conservative elements of the state.
5. . t . - r ,
vjne Ol xne pecunaruies oi inc primary law
(M n Minnesota, as well as in Nebraska, is that it
f! will permit an inimical group such as the'Non
Partisan league to seize the machinery of an es-
SLtahlished. party. If the league were compelled to
openly present its candidates on its own plat
form, facing the voters on its own feet, it might
not be so successful. So long as it can smuggle
names on the primary ticket under the designa
tion of republican, people may expect that
Townleyites from time to time will be nomi
nated. It is this phase of the situation that our
eastern friends do not seem to understand.
In Minnesota, as in North Dakota, the suc
cess of the league has come through local rather
than general conditions. Nebraska underwent
something like this thirty years ago, when the
Farmers' Alliance swept the state. It was a
vote of protest rather than an abandonment of
the solid principles of republicanism, and when
the irritating causes were removed, the return
to the older party was easy and prompt. Minne
sota republicans are awake to the situatipn, and
will undoubtedly be able to cope with jit, now
and for the future. No real valid objection can
be lodged against the Non-Partisan league set
ting itself up as a political party and operating
as such, but its members have no moral right
to masquerade as republicans when holding a
superior allegiance to another and opposing or
ganization. No Code Bill Referendum.
The supreme Ojourt has disposed of the ef
fort to further" hoid up the so-called "code" ad
ministration bill through the referendum, A
former decision has been reversed and the ap
peal .dismissed for want of jurisdiction;
While this outcome leaves something lacking
in the way of complete vindication for the meas
ure, it puts an effective end to a purely partisan
attempt to thwart the enforcement of a law that
contains the element of service. It will now be
possible to cure any of its defects by amend
ment, and to secure for the state an extension of
its beneficial features. ,
More efficient and economical management
of the state's affairs is the goal aimed at, and
this can be accomplished by the "code" bill. Ex
perience under the law already has justified its
enactment, just as was anticipated by the repub
lican convention two years ago, when a pledge
was made that such a measure would be put into
force. Nebraska is the gainer because the law
is operative? and the savings under it will in
crease as years go by."
Another point inferentially settled by the
decision in this case has to do with the applica
tion , of the referendum law. The court in ef
fect holds that the text of the measure to be
referred to the people need not be attached to
the petitions or ballot In this case it would
have cost more than $200,000 to have printed the
number of copies of the code law needed to
comply with the provision. Such expenditure
is out of all reason, but even if it had been pos
sible to do it without cost to the state, the pro
ceeding teems unwise. Judgment of a proposed
statute, suspended by reference to the electorate,
is not likely to be based on a careful examina
tion of its contents but by the popular estimate
based on a general understanding of its
provisions. While the cede law will sustain
well a critical analysis, very few voters would
care to go through it for the purpose of de
termining its merits by actual examination.
Opinion would rest finally on a general con
clusion as to its service and necessity.
The court's ruling in this case clears away
the obstruction raised by carping partisanship,
and Will permit the republicans of Nebraska to
go to the people; squarely on their record of a
great promise faithfully ; carried into per
formance. . Jarring Georgia, Loose.
When the Wilson strain roller drove over
the Smith-Watson group at San Francisco, it
gave "Mitch" Palmer a little group of delegates
in the convention, subject to the decision of
the . credentials committee, but it also started
trouble in the Cracker state. Georgia democrats
take their politics seriously. It has been a mat
ter of great pride with them to be "regular"
ever since the state was a state. John Randolph
of Roanoke got into mighty deep' watfer once
trying to tell the people of Georgia what to do,
and everyone since then who has tried Jo dictate
to them has met with such opposition as usually
has resulted in favor of the home folks and
against the interloper. '
Senator Hoke Smith cculd not follow the
president on the League of Nations, and frankly
recorded his vote in opposition to the White
House plan. He 'therefore was marked. Out
of reach of the polls, the only other way was, to
discredit him at home. So Attorney General
Palmer, picked by the administration to make
the race for president, went into Georgia to get
an endorsement. He received a plurality, falling
50,000 short of a majority of the votes, and when
the convention met to select delegates, the Smith
and Watson forces united and controlled tne
gathering. The Palmer group bolted,' named, a
list of. delegates, at a rump convention, and sent
them to San Francisco, where they have re
ceived the endorsement of the democratic na
tional committee.
This turning down of a regular party con
vention in a democratic state is another illus
tration 6 the high-handed way in which Mr.
Wilson and his backers are running the party.
Not only has the president sought to brow
beat congress, to dictate to voters whom tfiey
should select to represent them, but he actually
ignores the machinery of his party's organiza
tion when it does not operate just to suit him.
Hoke Smith will not desert his party, nor
will Tom Watson, but they will have a tough
time holding the voters in line for a ticket nomi
nated by a convention that has so impudently
upset the party in Georgia. A fight such as
never was witnessed in the state is in progress
already, and while Georgia may not swing into
the republican line, it will send mighty few Wil
son men to the next congress.
It would be a safe wager that if the shade
of . Grover Cleveland were present at the San
Francisco convention when Carter Glass named
the subcommittee on resolutions more than the
ghost of a smile could have been noted.
Why should the president have telephonic
communications with the convention, when he
has such able and devoted lieutenants to carry
out orders? '
McAdoo and Meredith is alliterative, all
right, and almost rhythmic.. What the voters
want is a chance to get at them.
These are the days that make the rouny ice
plant hump.

almost identical on both nails. She

On and oft since babyhood she has

GARY SCHOOL CHILDREN
Dr. O. N. Nesbit and Miss Mc
Nanney of Gary, Ind., in making
a study of the children in the Beve
rldge school, found themselves un
able to agree with many of the con
clusions of other investigators.
The population of Gary is foreign
born to an exceptional dfgroe. There
aro probably few places in the world
where so many nationalities come
together. The school children of
that city are largely the offspring of
parents born abroad. The nations
from southern and southeastern Eu
rope are prominent in point of num
bers at least.
Since people of Italian, Jewish,
and southeastern European stocks
are not of large stature, the average
size of a Gary school child of a Riv
er, age probably is considerably less
than that of a child from a commun
ity largely made up, for instance, of
Scandinavian stock.
Six hundred and sixty school chil
dren were weighed and meausred.
Nino per cent were found to be more
than 7 per cent underweight. Ten
per cent were overweight. The re
maining were in between and were
classed as normal.
It is generally held that the drink
Ins: of coffee is a large factor in caus
ing underweight. The Gary inves
tigators did not find this to be true
In their charges.
They investigated 106 pupils who
were more1 than 5 per cent under
Weight, sixty-five, more than 5 per
cent overweight, and 104 who were
of normal weight. Seventy-one per
cent of the underweights used coffee.
"Fine," says the coffee antagonist,
"the case is proved." But, hoM!
Of the overweights 75 per cent used
coffee, 68 fier cent of the normals
used it. Even when we limit it to
children drinking coffee three times
daily the percentages were 22, 18,
and 17, respectively.
These differences are not great
enough, on which to base any con
clusions. The answer to the ques
tion Do you use milk?---was almost
aa disconcerting. Thirty-one per
cent of the overweights, and 25 per
cent of the normals reported that
they did not use milk. Of the 198
who reported that they used milk
seventy-nine got one glass a day,
fifty-one two glasses, fifteen three
glasses, nine more than three
glasses, and forty-four "sometimes."
A comparison of the results of a
writing test between those who used
coffee apd those who did not showed
no great difference. In some grades
the coffee drinkers were best; in
others, the non-coffee drinkers.
The normal weight pupils lost a
slightly greater number of days per
capita on account of illness than did
the overweights, and the coffee
drinkers had a slightly lower rate
than did those who drank no coffee.
