THIS WAS QUEER TURN Had Pennsylvania Turned to McAdoo at Crucial Moenemt Vox Would PrutMbly Have Been De feated For Nomlnatiou. "The San Francisco -convention will go down In history as one of tne most remaraauia evr held," sia.su n. K. Turner who has lust arrived borne from attending the big con vention. There waa a wide -difference of opinion," Mr. Turner says, "among delegates both as to platform ana candidate, but tnese differences of opinion were met and settled In a spirit of friendly consideration and tolerance that was Indeed marked When Burke Cochran, the brilliant and forceful orator of New York, tpoke in favor of the wet plank he was given a mlghtly ovation, oniv to be surpassed, half an hoar later by the ovation given Bryan when he nmsnea nis wonderful speceh In support of the extreme dry plank and this In torn waa followed shortly bv tin ovation ' to Glass, of Virginia, when he spoke In opposition to the Views of both Cochran and Bryan. In these demonstrations, each last ing about half an hour, the delegates Joined In a rather indiscriminate manner, and then proceeded to rote down both Mr. Cochran and Mr. Uryan. "The naming ot Cox as a candi date came like the break In a base ball game," Mr. Turner stated. "It came as a result of an Incident which seemed Inconsequential At - close of the 38th ballot the Mc Adoo forces were 22 votes In the lead, and Just following this ballot V aimer released his supporters num bering 211 votes. Among the Pal mer forces, the Pennsylvania dele gation on second choice stood for McAdoo about four to one, bnt In stead of registering this vote for McAdoo on the succeeding ballot. the Pennsylvania delegation as a parting compliment to Palmer voted for him on the 38th ballot as well. The withholding of this v-pte for Mc Adoo on the 39th ballot gave the Vox forces a lead of 28 ballots in tne break. This gave them the swir.g or 'psychology' of toe convention to the Cox supporters and other hes itating delegations swung to 'ho Cox standard on succeeding ballots. Pennsylvania swinging tot .McAdoo on the 40th ballot was not sufficient to stem the tide set In favor of Cox, Thus the Cox people won - merely from the fact that the Pennsylvania delegation paused to give a parting compliment to Its first choice, rai nier. Had this not been done the xtory of the convention would have been different. There is nothing to the story of superior strategy of the Cox men. "However, the nomination of Cox was highly acceptable to the con vention at large aa was evidenced In the mighty ovation given to Cox In the final ballot, an ovation in which the standards of all the state were carried. The nomination of Cox will take from the campaign the bitter personal attack that would have been directed against President Wilson by the opposition party had viAirinA been the nominee. Viewed h this light the nomination of Cox la fortunate, for a campaign of bit terness and personalities Is not to be desired by either party. As an ardent admirer of the prealden'.

"The r.nmlnktlon of Mr. Cox will change the battle ground from the went to Ohio and eastern states, and It will he fought out on the pis forms of (he opposing parties." PROF. BENNETT TO LEAVE.

SALT LAKE CITY, Utah. July 8 Closer co operation between the teachers and school administrators was urged to remedy unrest among -teachers by CorpeMl S. Adair, presi dent or the .National league oi Teacher's Associations, In an address today In the National Education As sociation convention nere. "For many years the classroom teacher has felt that she was not giving to the cause of education the best that was In her to give," she said.. Although the teacher of the ..hlMran nf n free neonle. she her- if hri liifln share In mnlrilnv the'ed by an auto. As Is the case with educational policies which she en- deavored to carry out. "Thl nuestlon was recently asked the teachers of a certain state. 'To what reason other than salary do vou attribute the unrest among the teachers?" Three hundred and (fifty three replied that It was because of a lack of sympathy and co-operatiou between the teachers and the admin istration. Closer co-operation and a better acquaintance was the-unlveis-al remedy "That this delre for a closer co operation between the class-room teacher and the admnlstratlon In general was shown by the remark able growth of the Advisory Council Idea. "The purpose of these councils Is to utilize the exoerence. Judgment and Initiative of the men and women in direct daily contact with the children and problems of the school. "All questions administrative as well as educational affecting the welfare of the teachers, the child ren, the schools, nhould be recogniz ed 88 proper subjects for discussion and the (findings by these councils. All recommendations of the councils should be made a matter of official record. "The Judgment of the teacher should be utilized in the formation of school policv, not only for the sake of the policy, but also for the sense of responsibility engendered In the teacher by her share In deter mining that policy," the speaker said. "In certain cities where there Is no formally Instituted advisory board the open forum plan has been adopt ed." she continued.

Everybody in-jty way of Tiller will also be used vited. in i detour road if the commission MONEY REM FOR CUT-OFF. ROAD State Highway Commissiqn Votes $15,000 For Improve ment Tiller Trail Road. WILL OPEN UP ROUTE Although Amount Is Not Sufficient to Complete Work Yet Tills Ap propriation Guarantees Further Expenditures by the State. Assurance that the Tiller-Trail cut-oof road Is to be opened this year was received today when it was learned that the State Highway Com mission had appropriated 116.000 to be matched by the Government, for the purpose of opening up the summit section of the road, making travxel to Crater Lake possible. This money, the commission states, is all that Is available at this time for the! work, but it will doubtless be suffi cient to put the section in condition that it will he passable for residents ot that locality who desire to bring out their produce during the summer weather. Although no definite announce ments were made, it is understood that the money is to be turned ovor to the forest service with the under standing that it is to be used on the summit section from the foot of the mountain to the summit road. At the present time there is a good grade over the summit, but from. the foot of the mountain to the old grade the road is impassable. The new survey follows an easier grade for several miles and Is easy construction. The state forester has recommended to the Washington, D. C. office that the forest service co-operate, and doubt less the action of the state com mission In voting funds will hasten action on the part ot the forestry officials. At the present time the road from Tiller to Drew In passable but rough. Howover, It would require only slight amount of work to put this road In gpr 1 shape, although it has a number of had grades but these are easily travelled. The proposed new route follows along Elk Creek, and is partially built, but on account of the heavy type of construction and the evtreine cost, the work has been neglected for several years. It Is not proposed to finish the cut at this time, but Instead it Is desired that the old road from Tiller to Drew be slightly Improved. From Drew to the foot of the mountain, the road Is in good shape and can be easily cover- most country roads It is slightly rough, but a small amount of work I wul overcome mo unucuiiy. r rom the foot of the mountain to the sum mit, the road is imnassabln. ateen und rough. The proposed route cuts off a short distance from the foot of the mountain and following an easy grade reaches the summit over ground which could at slight expen se be converted into good road. ben. Although the $15,000 appropriated by the commission Is not sufficient to put the cut-off road In first class condition, yet it is enough to do the preliminary work and make the road passable. The appropriation shows above ail other things, the good In tention of the commission to open up the road, and with this expendi ture ordered, It Is a certain fact that as soon as possible the commission will order a much larger appropria tion which will be sufficient to put this much desired road In rood con dition for travel. The people who have been working so hard for the establishment of the road are de lighted with the decision of the com mission and understanding the finan cial situation at this time are per fectly satsflpd with the action that has been taken. The approval of the commission doubtless Isdiie largely to Commis sioner Kiddle, who only a short time ago went over the route and personally inected the proposed road and the territory surrounding. TILLER RESIDENTS ELATED. Portland Oregonlan: Folks at Til ler will be elated when H. W. Coch ran gets back there and tells them that the trail Is to be completed, possibly by this fall or next year, anyway. Tiller is a small settlo ment In southern Oregon and the trail Is a cut-off between Hoseburj and Crater Lake. The state and gov ernment, not to mention the county. have spent money opening the trail, but It Is still unfinished. There Is a stretch of several miles which one can negotiate only on horseback, al though a log-cllmhlng automobile or preferably a tank can get throuch. The state highway commission yes terdav acreed to chip in another 415.000 .to the sum necessary to open the trail. When this Is finished It will enable traffic from Portland to get to the lake by a route esti mated roughly at about 100 miles horter than over the Pacific high- ever puts a concrete pavement on the canyon section of the Pacific highway.

Tourist Dies on Road Near Glendale Enroute home to Long Hooch after an extended auto trip to northern points, a party ot tourists named Mo Daniels passed through Roseburg yesterday afternoon continuing on south, and when passing through the upper end ot the canyon, about IS miles this side of Qlendale. Mrs, Mc- Danlela suddenly passed away. She had not been ill previously, and sud denly fnlnted in the car. They Im med'aiely stopped, but before they could lift hr from the car or render any help, she was dead. She was accompanied by her husband and her two grown daughters. The unfortu nate accident occured about :30 last evening, and Dr. C. C. Knott, ol Glendale, who was enroute to this city, arrived on the scene shortly sif ter Mrs. Mclianlels had passed away but could render no assistance how eror, aside from glrtng them permis sion to carry the body Into Glendale. Dr. Knott informed Coroner Rltter of the occurence and he left for Glendale on the early morning train todny. It was thought that an ex amination as to the cause ot death would bo necessary, and that he would remain to prepare the body for shipment. Dr. Knott stated that he would prefer not to pass an opinion as to what caused the sudden death. One theory advanced .was that some cann ed meat they had eaten a short time before had poisoned her. although Di. Knott stated that death from poisoning was usually very painful and accompanied by convulsions of some kind, which waa not the case. Extreme vatigue from the Journey might have also Interferred with the heart action, according to opinions which have been advanced. The party was traveling In a large car and was completely equipped for camping out.
