D. LEEPER IS ELECTED IB lo lie in Group to Represent Stale at National Conclave. Wilson Is Cheered. LliWlSTON', Idaho. June 15. Unex ppcted injection of the liquor ques tion into the deliberations of the Idaho democratic state convention here tonight precipitated the only oiicn disagreement on the convention floor that up to that time had arisen and for a time threatened the appar-! ent harmony which marked the open ing today of the convention's ses sions. The question came up on a motion by Harry Kessler of Boise, to sub stitute for a declaration in the re port of the resolutions committee in favor of enforcement of the Volstead net. a resolution which had been pre sented to the resolutions committee and tabled by that committee. He was warmly seconded by a number of speakers from various parts of the state who demanded a more swopping- declaration by the party. After a viva voce vote had failed to determine the issue and Mr. Kesa ler's motion for a rollcall had been carried, he modified his substitute to the apparent satisfaction of a ma jority of the delegates and it was adopted by an aye-and-no vote. Preliminaries or the convention were cleared away quickly after Jerome A. Day of Moscow, state chairman, had called the convention to order shortly after 2 P. M. R. D. Leeper, an ex-service man of Cocur d'Alene, was elected temporary chairman, and Miss Olive Petraschek of Washington county, was named temporary secre tary, in recognition, their sponsors declared, of the debt of gratitude owed by the country to its so'.diers and to Idaho's pioneer role in grant ing suffrage to women. 16 Delegates to Be Named. By adoption of the report of the committee on order of business, the convention later made the temporary organization permanent and voted to elect 16 delegates to the national con vention at San Francisco, with half a vote each, and eight alternates from among whom any vacancy on the j "ticftAiiuii juiiii ue iiiiuu. x lie re port also provided that no resolution should be considered by the conven tion which had not first been present ed to the resolutions committee. livery county in the state, with the exception of four, Boise, Bear Lake, Owyhee and Power, was represented in the convention, it was declared in the report of the credentials com mittee, although all delegations did not contain their full strength. The enthusiasm for President Wil son and the evidence of approbation of his administration were first man ifested during the keynote speech of Mr. Leeper, when the convention was brought twice to Its feet by his dec laration that only by following the way pointed out by the president could the world find a solution of Its present problems. It was renewed during speeches by United States Senator Nugent and former Governors Hawley and Alex ander. One outburst followed the linking by Senator .Nugent of the name of former Secretary of the Treasury McAdoo with that of the president in .assigning the credit for America's record in the world war. Administration Is Praised. Senator Nugent analyzed the rec ord of the democratic administration and that of the , last republican con press, praising specifically numerous acts of the former and declaring that in no "5 years of republican control had so much constructive legislation been passed. He condemned many of the acts of the republican congress, particularly the land and coal-leasing bills and the water-power measure, characterizing them as efforts to ex ploit the public wealth for the benefit of a few. He mentioned also what he declared had been the action of the republican congress in restricting the operation of government depart ments by refusal of appropriations, naming the reduction of funds for the department of agriculture as among those from which he said the country would suffer. He discussed the peace treaty and the league of nations, detailing the efforts made by both democrats and republicans to effect a compromise, and declaring that failure to reach an agreement was due to refusal of some of the republicans to grant any concessions on article 10. He de clared the plank of the republican national platform "straddled the Issue" of the league of nations, and predicted democratic success in stat and nation if the democratic national convention came out sauarelv for rat ification of the league covenant with out any nullifying reservations. Like predictions of democratic sue cess were made by former Governors Hawley and Alexander, who pro fessed to see a sentiment among the people for a continuation of demo cratic rule in the national adminis tration and a return to democratic administration in the state.
