Champ Clark will probably get the

convention, which opened hero today,
but the Wflaon supporters are still
hopeful. Clark and W'IIboii have run
a neck and neck race" tn all of the
county conventions, and have been
practically the only two candidates
considered.
The holding of the convention In
this city is a victory for the Clark
forces, as the Seventh District has
declared for the Mtsmourian. Nearly
all of the candidates for state offices
and leaders in the party are for
Clark, with the exception of George
