Delegates Rise on Sunday Clothed in Right Minds
After Week of Gruelling Work Democratic
Convention Sets New Mark in History of Like

By EYE WITNESS. '
fhleago Tribune-Omaha Be Leased Wire.
San Francisco,' July 5. The Sun
day morning calm after a hard week
and everybody almost everybody
clothed and in his right mind, and
as sober as Mr. Bryan.
Scores of the lads went to mass
this morning.
The bromo seltzer market is slug
gish. The hot towel is not in demand.
The hangover is sporadic, not ep
idemic. , '
There never was a democratic
convention interlude like it before. ,
Emphatically this is not because
there was not strain and uncertainty
enough . in last night's exercises to
send statesmen flying to the bottle.
There was. All agree that not in
years of convention war tug and
war crying has there been anything
to surpass it.
Who shall adequately picture the
big noise? Who shall visualize the
vigor of the game in its tensest mo
ment? ' -
The words for it all are used up
and worn ot4t and yet the spectacle,
familiar as it is and enulessly writ
ten about as it has been, remains
one that is worth putir.g on pa
per. It is the spectacle of a thou

It is the spaciousness of this spec
tacle that saves it from contempt.
Horseplay by a couple. of thousand
delegates and alternates and with
nearly 10,000 looking on, and, in so
far as they dare, joining in, will pro
vide a sumptuous thriM ;,nc create
in the most detached witness an ir
resistible, if somewhat shamefaced,
joy. It may not be the best way
to choose your potential king-man
but it is our way and, despite
Thomas Carlyle, the republic sur
vives it.
What saves the system from utter
grotesqueness and the state from
shipwreck is the astounding capacity
for instant readjustment by the men
who make the system function.
Votes mount, veer, sink, are
feverishly traded, and compromises
are frantically broached and re
jected amid surges of tumft non
sense that would make bedlam so
licitous for the sanity of the world
outside its. walls. You see the stand
ard of Hawaii lurching toward the
;platform in the hands of an islander
with a festal pink wreath around
his black fedora. He is the sworn
ally for the moment of a yowling
Coxite from Ohio with green feath
ers in his 'derby and the tossing
Ohio standard in his hands. Both
men make sufficiently ridiculous fig
ures in their present mood of yeowl
to warrant their detention in a,
psychopathic ward were they out

Carry Majestic Message.
Yet there is a majestic message
even in them. The mere fact of their
propinquity in this crazy house is
eloquent. For there they are the
man of the Buckeyes and the man
with the festival wreath of a remote
and vanishing race around his black
fedora.
It visualizes itself thus this vivid
and far flung geography, I mean
time and again. The Canal Zone
so distributes its two votes that on
the 16th ballot the 18 Massachusetts
men who are' for McAdoo give it
greeting and the 73 Pennsylvanians
who are sticking to Palmer hobnob
with it.
Amid rough house you see ' an
empire being cemented with that
nonpareil cement of party interest
and self interest. It is wonderful.
There is not another empire which
works this way. In London they

i
Formal Complaint Charges
Wrong Practices on Part of
Cornbinatio nof Dealers
In Three States.
Members of the Iowa-Nebraska-Minnesota
Wholesale Grocers' asso
ciation, which has its headquarters
in Council Bluffs, have been cited by
the federal trade commission in a
formal complaint which charges, un
fair competition.
John Mehlhop of Council Bluffs is
secretary-lreasurer of the association
and one of the officers named in the
citation. Others are John Blaul of
Burlington, la., president; O. J.
Moore of Sioux City, la., vice presi
dent; John D. Fuller of Hastings,
Neb., vice president.
The commission is given a 40-day
period to file an . answer to the
charge, following which the case
comes up before the commission for
hearing. The above-namedmen will
be required to appear before the
board as representatives of the asso
ciation.
The citation alleges that it is the
association's policy and plan to pre
vent non-member grocery concerns
trom competing by shutting ott
their supply of foods and products
from the manufacturers. It states
that this has been accomplished by
means of boycotts and withdrawal of
patronage. '

street. Here we bring them from
the isthmus of our hemisphere and
from the islands of the Caribbean

them and they like it and say', "We,
too, are" children of the republic."
Ten thousand look on at this
frolic of commonwealths and de
pendencies in wide-eyed expectancy
of the king-man's name coming out
of it all. (
It does not.
At the droning cry, "the ayes
seem to have it,' the ayes have it and
the convention stands adojurned,"
and at the decisive smack of the
gavel which puts a period to the
drone, all these maniacs, recruited
from Cancer to Capricorn gather
up their rattles and toy balloons,
wave good-night to the b.ind and
go yuietly home to bed. In a trice
they have reacted from the common
place and the common sensible.
They have become as tractable as
children. The ayes did not seem to
have it and did not have it, and the
grinning chairman knew they did
not when he said it.
But it was time to go to bed, and
to bed he sent them. ' They went

Now let me give you a hint of the.
contrast which Jhe Sabbath quierf

Like the lunatic in the Bible. I re
peat these lunatics of 'ast night are
clofned in their right minds now.
The most methodical and matter
of fact way they are going about
looking for a potential king-man
without any divorces in his family
and their political state of mind is
compounded of just three very ob
vious and .wholly understandable
impulses and reactions of the ordi

cule to individualize these impulses

Lord's day groping for the potential

There is not a veteran politician
in either party that does not retain
a lively remembrance of the lesson
which the -foul campaign of 1884
taught party men in the bitterest
way. They know that a story of
broken or of irregular domestic re
lations, though it would not, if all
the story were told, disgrace the
candidate, can in the welter of a
campaign be so twisted and turned
and distorted that it can ruin that
candidate and pillory him as a no
torious libertine and profligate be
fore hundreds of thousands of per
sons. The democratic politicians seeking
their king-man here have no stom
ach for a repetition of what Andrew
D. White called "The vilest political
campaign ever wag?d."
Remember George Curtis.
They have not forgotten the story
of George William Curtis' ashen
face of woe when he came into the
Lotus club and said, "Have you seen
the Buffalo paper?"
The slanders about their king
man then nearly cost them victory
and would have cost them victory
of, as Blaine said, the Lord had
not sent an ass in the guise of a
preacher to undo the republicans.
An electorate singularly sensitive
to a candidate's relations with his
women folk, and singularly censor
ious about any trouble he may have
had in that quarter, must be con
sidered. And that goes double now
that the electorate comprises wom
en. They were an influence in this
direction bciore they had a vote.
Now that thfy have it they are a
direct factor. 1
And for that reason, if for no
other, the Coxites and their Piqua
silver cornet band did not stampede
the requisite 260 delegates to their
banners during the hurly burly of the
most spectacular of last evening's
walk arouuds,
CANDIDATES FOR
SECOND PLACE
HAVE HARD TIME
Delegates Refuse to Take
Aspirants for Second Place
On Ticket Seriously Be
fore Nomination.
By GRAFTON S. WILCOX,
Chicago Tribune-Omaha Bee Leased Wire.
San Francisco, July '5. Favor
ite son candidates Tor the demo
cratic vice presidential nomination
here continue to have a hard time
getting delegates to give them a
hearing.
Whenever a candidate for second
place sends his emissaries to a
neighboring delegation with an ap
peal for support, he usually 'gets
this message back:
"How do yo get that way? Wait
till we get a nominee for president
before you worry us with second
place talk." , ,
California democrats want repre
sentation on the ticket. They say
that the democrats will have a good
chance to carry California with a
native son on the ticket and Raker
is being groomed for the race. If
the presidential nominee conies from
the middle west California insists
that her claims be recognized for
the vice presidential place.
Kakcr, of course, is a dry. He is
good strong administration" man,
right on suffrage, strong in his war
record, popular among the people
and pretty well known in the east
itecause of his long service in con
Jfgress, where he'hs taken prominent
pan in icgisiduve unaiis.
Of all the candidates mentioned
for the vice presidency, the man
talked about most in convention hall
lobbies is Secretary of Agriculture
Meredith of Iowa. His friends say
he might consider second place if
he is not nominated lor president,
and they insist he still is a sizeable
dark horse for first honors, not
withstanding the secretary's declar
ation that he is not a candidate for
president. The big leaders of the
party like the way Meredith would
size up for vice president.
"Keep your eye on Carter H. Har
rison of Chicago for second place"
is frequently heard when available
vice'presidential timber is casually
discussed. Notwithstanding that the
Illinois delegation is instructed for.
James Hamilton Lewis, there is
nothing to lceep Illinois from having
another candidate if Lewis cannot be
put over. And if Illinois does have
a second candidate, Carter Harrison
will be the man. ' Harrison would
not be at all hard for the unterrified
democrats to take, his friends insist.
All the favorite sons from east and
west have their second place boost
ers buy. Another boom heard of
tonight was for Homer S. Cum
mings of Connecticut, chairman of
the national committee, whose key
note speech still rings in the ears of
the delegates.
Baby Nearly Wrecked
Home; Girl Mother Is
Forced to Give It Up
Sacramento, Cal., July 5. Three-months-old
Baby Floris, whose
mother is Mrs. George Floris, and
who has been "foot balled" around
for some weeks, finally has found a
home.
The mother of the little tot deeded
the little girl to Mrs. T. Hildebrand,
but later recovered it, because she
feared the foster-mother was not giv
ing the infant the proper care.
A new mother has been found for
Floris. Now it is Mrs. Cecil Clyds
Erp of this city.
The girl-mother has defended her
act in offering the baby for adoption
by declaring her mother had threat
ened to expel her from the house if
she insisted upon keeping the child
which was born out of wedlockThe
grandmother of Floris complained
that it cried at night and kept her
awake.
The little mother said the last but
not the least straw was when her
husband threatened to leave her if
the child was not given away.
The adoption proceedings were
conducted in the superior court
here.

Cleveland Moves
Back Into First Jby
i Defeating Detroit
New York, July 5. Cleveland re
gained the American league leader
ship from New York S-'iiday by ad
ministering Detroit's seventh
straight defeat, while the Yankees
dropped their first game in 10 to
W ashington. Ihc heavy slugging of
the two leaders is carrying them
along at a fast pace, but the Indian
club lacks the smooth pitching that
the Yankees possess. Either Cove
leskie or Bagby, the Cleveland star
twirlers, have been called upon in
every contest for a week.
The Cincinnati world's champions
made a slight gain over Brooklyn
for the National League leadership.
Although the Reds are batting light
ly, their pitchers held their oppon
ents to an average of about two and
a half runs again last week. Brook
lyn and Chicago are both enjoying
good pitchihg again. The Superb
nave oeen patting ugntiy, Dut toaay
pounded out 31 hits for 18 runs in a
double-header with Philadelphia.
The 'Cubs, however, lost a battle for
third place today at St. Louis, when
four pitchers were unable to check
the Cardinals.
The Boston. Nationals continued
their winning play of the previous
week by timely batting. Philadel
phia lacks scoring power. The Pitts
burgh twirlers are handicapped by
light hitting. New York's Slugging
is offset by unsteady pitching.
The American League Chicago
outbatted thes league leaders last
week, but was unable to attain the
same winning pace. Close scores
marked the Boston and Washington
contests. Johnson of the Senators
is in especially good form and
pitched a three-hit and a no-hit, no
run game last week. St. Louis is
displaying see-saw form. Detroit
and Philadelphia are fallinir in the
ruck.
Oil-Burning Still Is
Latest Moonshiner
' Concealment Dodge
Gadsden, Ala., July S. Moon
shiners up in the hills near this city
are not as far behind the times as
some people might imagine. The
latest evidence that they are up to
date is seen in the fact that some of
them are using oil burners on their
stills.
Oil-burning stills have an advan
tage over the old-fashiolfed kind.
They produce no smoke or odors by
which revenue agents can detect
them. These stills can also be con
cealed in tunnels without smoking
out the "shiners."
Deputy sheriffs here captured one
of the oil-burning stills. It was
hidden in a tunnel dug in a held.
Overhead the green crops were
growing, concealing all traces of
whisky making.

lic schools, including the heads of
