DEMOCRATIC TICKET

and that he could not be nominated.
On the 44th ballot Colorado gave
Wilson ten votes as against one here
tofore cast for him. Just as the shift
came, Charles F. Murphy came down
to the Missouri delegation and en
gaged in earnest conversation -. with
Dave Francis and Francis was assur
ing the Tammany chieftain that he
would be able to hold his forces in
tact from now on.
Indiana came solidy into the Wil
son camp on this ballot, giving a
gain of two to Wilson.
In Iowa Wilson gained three and a
half votes.
Pennsylvania recorded itself solid
for Wilson on the 44th ballot the two
that had been holding out swinging
into line.
Utah a moment later came in solid
following Pennsylvania's example
and gave its eight votes to Wilson.
The example of solid states proved
contagious as Wisconsin was next in
line. As its chairman called its 26
votes solidly for Wilson the Jersey
ites held another jubilation.
When an attempt to vote proxies
in the Washington deelgation was
made, Chairman James ruled that
they could not be used. The Wash
ington men pleaded with him to make
an exception in this case. The state
of Washington had not alternates,
they said, "and we have universally
rrom the beginning."
James stuck to his ruling. "So
long as the chair has no challenge
made of proxies it cannot interfere,"
he said.
A Washington delegate shouted at
James:
"I appeal from the decision of the
chair. This is part of the "fraud

which has been practiced in this con
vention." OUie James became white with ang
er: "If the gentleman has any opinion
that any of the directors of this con
vention has practiced fraud he has a
remedy and I hereby invite him to ap
peal from the decision of the chair,"
shouted James,
The roll call of the delegation then
proceeded.
The vote resulted: Clark 8, Wilson
3i, 2 absent.
Under the rule James directed that
the vote be cast for Clark.
With only 971 votes needed to nom
inate after the 44th ballot was taken
the Wilson managers began a con
certed search for the needed tallies.
On the 45th.. ballot New'Mexico de
manded a roll call. While it was be
ing taken the Wilson managers an
nounced that Mississippi, which had
been passed for a caucus, had decid
ed to come over Wilson on this bal
lot, this adding to his total 20.
The right of J. D. Hand, one of the
alternates in the New Mexico dele
gation to vote, was opposed by the
Wilsoji men on the delegation, but
James, said he was regularly elected
and entitled to vote.
Chairman James ruled that the New
Mexico poll showed Clark 4, Wilson
4 and that under the state conven
tion's instructions the vote must be
cast for Clark.
Mayor Fitzgerald, of Boston, was
next recognized. - He said that Mas
sachusetts had voted its debt for its
governor, Foss, believing he was; the
right man.
It was Foss' desire, he said, that
his name be withdrawn, and that Mas
sachusetts vote solidly for Wilson. -
Congressman Fitzgerald of Brook
lyn, Charles Murphy's adviser, was
next recognized, and said:
"The desire of every Democrat in
this convention is to leave the hall
united, harmonious, and with victory
assured. Whatever personal differ
ences we may have had over condi
tions every delegate should be willing
to give up his personal feelings to
the welfare of the party.
"In the hope that we can demon
strate that no matter how hard we
may strive for the mastery of our hon
est opinions, we should be willing tq
do anything for the benefit of our
party.
'In the interest of harmony, in the
interest of a united party, and in the
hope of victory next fall, I move that
the roll call be made suspended 'and
that we nominate by acclamation that
distinguished representative of Dem
ocracy of New Jersey Governor
Woodrow Wilson."
The match was in and the powder
was set off. There was a wild out

the Baby Contest
burst of cheers from every section of
the hall.
Every delegation, with the excep
tion of Missouri, was on its feet, yell
ing and cheering.
In the Nebraska delegation, Bryan
sat with a broad smile on his face.
Delegates surrounding him grasped
his hand and patted him on the
back.
At last Governor Francis, Senator
Stone and Governor Reed went back
to the platform.
Reed was recognized.
"Without the slightest desire to in
dicate any ' feeling of resentment
against this motion, we must object
to its being carried under the rule
that requires unanimous consent. We
want a roll call, so that Missouri's
vote can be recorded on this ballot
for old Champ Clark."
Delegate F. H. McCullough of Mis
souri demanded the .right to make a
statement.
"As a delegate from Missouri," he
said, "I want to say that no one de
plores the conditions that have aris
en here more than I do. We are for
Champ Clark, first, last and all the
time. But before any man Missouri
is for harmony and for victory, and
should vote for Wilson here."
As the forty-sixth roll call began it
was plain from the outset that Wilsons
nomination was a certainty.
The Democratic platform reaffirms
the "Rule of the People" and declares
for Federal aid to flood districts,
state's rights, Alaska development
and evolution on broad but safe prin
ciples of Jefferson. The platform is
progressive.
Animal Species.
Geologists declare that In prehistoric
times there were on this planet 31,000,
000 different animal forms. Natural
ists have classified 312.000 species, and
there are now 470,000 forms, of which
60 per cent are insects.
PEACE OF MIND.
Peace is better than joy. Joy is
an uneasy guest and is always on
tiptoe to depart. It tries and wears
us out and yet keeps us ever fear
ing that the next moment it will be
gone. Peace is not so. It comes
more quietly, it stays more content
edly, and it never exhausts our
strength or gives one anxious
thought
