Washington at Fifth Washington at Fifth 10 1H0 DELEGATES G9S UNIT RULE MAINTAINED Effort Being Made to Send at Xeast One Woman to Demo cratic National Contention. il ::: ''' lt?OISE, Idaho, May 8. (Special.) tfte republican state convention be ih's out of the way. political leaders aii fi now turning their attention to the cVniing- state convention ot the derao crtic party to be held, at Lewiston Ovme 15, which will elect eight dele ptites and alternates to the national ciafcvention at San Francisco. It is Iterierally conceded that the Idaho delegation will ko uninstructed, al though it will probably lean toward vV'. O. McAdoo, former secretary of the treasury. iParty leadership among the Boui llons of Idaho is not a paramount is sue. The necessity for party unity is , recopnized and the pro and anti IfOKent factions have become practi slly merged. S far as actual party control ia concerned, if there is any, tt'Tests in Senator Nugent, who, by virtue of his position, has been able to isq'; distribute federal patronage as to ii'ild up a fairly intact organization, Binid all of the Nugent followers will JbJat the Lewiston convention. Senator Nageot May Attend. .:; in fact, Senator Nugent was named !T the Boise and Ada county demo crats as head of the delegation from tirts county. An effort is being made toi induce him to be present in person, a Ad it is not at all improbable that iie will come from Washington for occasion. Ada county also placed five women Tti the delegation to Lewiston Miss lrry Erb, Mrs. Frank Kinyon, Mrs. yfv H. Pohlraan, Mrs. S. T. Schreiber iiid Mrs. E. J. Dockery. A woman will J)e;', one of the eight delegates to the national convention if they have any Xhlng to do with the selection. " The Ada county democrats had but tm'e clash when they met to name their delegates to the state conven Cmmi. It was over the introduction Tid adoption of a resolution placing the delegates under the unit rule. The (resolution was attacked as "Tam Snany" rule but a majority of the (committee voted for it. i' In order that the women in the Jn.Tiy may play a more prominent part in" its affairs, the Ada county demo crats gave a cue to similar county "committees to organise women's ad .visory committees which will work in harmony with the county committee. (Women are to be nominated for state mid county offices, are to be given recognition at the state convention and sent to San Francisco to attend the national convention. This the re publican party failed to do, except in laming an alternate, and the Bour bons apparently hope to gain advan tage of the omission. i- Kx-Servlce Men on Delegation. It can be said that Senator Nugent will head the Idaho delegation to San I'rancisco. He will be one of the four delegates at large. The other three likely be II. Alexander, James H. Jtawley. both of Boise, and Judge James R. Bothwell of Twin Falls. The -ether four will be selected two from each congressional district. Ex-serv-lea men will be given a delegate irom each district. The republican state convention gave them two dele gates, both from the first district and .tfyree alternates. i Although there seems to be an in Sijjaant demand from many parts of the state that Chief Justice William iKj Morgan become the democratic 'tatididate for governor, leaders here naive been informed that he will be triable to make the race. Judge Both yl is also being groomed and in this faction seems to have considerable backing. D. L. Evans of Oneida county also is being mentioned. for lieutenant governor, Perry W. JliCchell of Nezperce, former state ()ator and president pro tern of the Senate when the democrats were in oomtrol of the legislature four years iagD, has a following here.

Performance to Be Given in Heilig nd Proceeds Turned Over to Entertainment Committee. The theatrical managers of Portland have caught the spirit of the Shrine convention which comes to Portland in June, and as a result of various conferences held this morning they have undertaken to donate $1450 to the Shrine entertainment fund.- They are going to get it at a vaudeville show they will stage at the Heilig theater on the night of Wednesday, May 26. The theater managers went to the Shrine headquarters in the Gasco building yesterday and made the offer of the money. As soon as their plans were ac cepted the managers engaged Frank Coffinberry to stage the show and told him to put nothing but star per formers on the bill. "I want to make it clear that this performance is not a benefit for any body but us managers and the Port land public," said Manager Jack John son of Pantages. "As managers we will ask the per formers to donate their services, and the box office receipts will be handed to the Shrine committee with our best wishes."

Transport of Army Considered Most Wonderful Feat Ever Seen and to Have Snorte-necr War. WASHINGTON, May 8. Rear-Admiral Sims' charge that delays on the part of the navy department pro longed the war four months and cost 500,000 lives was characterized today by Admiral W. S. Benson, former chief of operations, as an outrage and an injustice to the navy. Continuing his testimony before the senate investi gating committee, he said the charge, if allowed to stand, would be "to the everlasting disgrace of the American navy, the first line of defense." "The safe transport of the Ameri can army to France and back," said Admiral Benson, "was the most won derful feat the world had ever seen or dreamed of and it shortened the war very materially. "Rear-Admiral Sims' complaint is the only one we have heard. From our allies, from the army and from the American people generally we have heard nothing but praise for the navy's part in the war. The charge is particularly hard on nearly 500,000 young men who volunteered and served in the navy and went home proud of that service. It is too seri ous to be allowed to stand."
