SAM FRANC I SCO, June 25. (Spe
cial.) At Chicago It was anybody's
guess what might happen. Here no
one undertakes to predict the exact
outcome of the democratic national
convention. The delegates frankly con
fess their ignorance of the programme
being mapped out for them and refer
you to one or another of the bosses.
Here Is where the boss thrives in all
his glory. The delegates arriving in
large numbers without any instruc
tions from the democratic voters, very
naturally turn to the bosses for coun
sel and for advice. Possibly nothing
else should have been expected.
Wher the rank and file of the dem
ocratic party permitted themselves
to be deceived a few weeks ago by
the plea of the bosses that unin
structed delee-ates be sent to San
Francisco, the real error was com
mitted.
Boiata Were Clever.
-.Certainly it must be granted that
the bosses were clever when they
duned the voters with such a plea,
but the results achieved by this plot
may In the end prove disappointing
to the men who engineered it.
An interesting phase of this situ
ation is that there now exists within
the very party which eight years ago
at Baltimore adopted a liberal piat
form plank calling on all the states
to enact presidential preference pri
mary laws to place the power of se
lecting candidates in the hands of the
people and in so short a time it ae
velops that the rank and file of de
mocracy have vacated all the powers
Kiven to them by the primary laws,
and the delegates are here from most
of the states free to do the bidding
of the bosses.
Some Leaders Responsible.
Some of the leaders still high in
the party who were responsible for
the primary plank in the Baltimore
convention are equally responsible
for the condition today, whereby the
democratic candidate is to be named
by two or three men. and the plat
form framed by possibly a smaller
coterie.
One of these leaders is "William
Gibbs McAdoo, the president's son-in-law
and candidate for the presi
dential nomination, who put himself
on record as doubting the intelligence
of the people, when in a letter to
Miller S. Bell of Milledgeville, Ga.,
February 17. he wrote: "While I re
alize that under the primary laws,
instructed delegates from some
states are mandatory, nevertheless I
think it desirable that every effort
should be made to send uninstructed
delegates from every state where
possible. Personally, I should be de
lighted if the next national conven
tion might actually be a great demo
cratic conference, truly deliberative
in character, in which the utmost
freedom of action should prevail and
where the motive of high service
alone should control."
Sickening; Spectacle.
That sounds like a lofty sentiment
and it is true that the convention
has resolved Itself into a "great dem
ocratic conference," but it is a con
ference ot Charles A. Murphy of New
York, Thomas Taggart of Indiana,
George Brennan of Illinois and one
or two other lesser bosses. These
men will name the ticket and pass
on the platform.
It is a sickening spectacle which
makes the onlooker thank heaven
that the bulk of the several million
voters of this country cannot be pres
ent. It is a sight that would readily
cause a cynic to lose faith in popular
government. When in this enlight
ened day you witness something like
KiOO delegates, the most of them wait

Ing to be told by two or three bosses
what to doyou gain a better under
standing of why czars, kings and
other varieties of despots are main
tained In some countries for centuries
with the popular approval.
All of that American spirit of "76
which delivered the punch that dou
bled up King George IV is utterly
lacking here, and delegates in droves
are doing homage to two or three
King Georges Instead of one as before
the revolution.
Only this afternoon I inquired of
an Indiana delegate how the Indiana
delegation was going to line up in
the convention. His answer was can
did. He replied: "It Is too early
to tell you. You see it is several
days until nominations will be in
order, and by that time Taggart will
be able to tell us what is best for
Indiana democrats and for the party."
Indiana Farored Marshall.
He told me that when the delega
tion left home it was understood that
an effort would be made first by
the Hoosiers to secure Thomas Riley
Marshall's nomination, and then fail
ing on that, would turn to Cox.
All those calculations, he said.
might be upset by conferences here on
the ground, and that the delegates
were waiting for instructions. The
delegates not knowing how they are
to vote, it can be seen how difficult
it is to determine the outcome of the
contest next week.
The bosses, as told before, favor
Cox first; then Marshall and anyone
else but Palmer, who they do not
think can be elected or Governor Ed
wards. McAdoo might secure the
support of Tammany and Taggart if
he would promise to turn certain
patronage over to them in the event
of his election. Tammany which is
now opposing McAdoo has no other
grudge against him than that he has
exercised his privilege as son-in-law
of the president and heir apparent to
the White 'House to make all of the
political appointments in New York
state. The crown prince cry also is
annoying them.
The wetness of Cox particularly
appeals to the Tammanyites, and to
all of the bosses because the demo
cratic bosses, to a man, are sloppy
wet, but something has arisen in the
last few hours to make the Cox-nomi-nation
look like dangerous politics.
Cox Divorce Looms.
Opponents of Cox are using the fact
of a divorce, obtained by his first
wife to discredit him and the bosses
are hesitating today. Because of the
woman's suffrage no one undertakes
to go into the circumstances attend
ing the domestic breach in the Cox
family, but some of the keener of the
bosses doubt the wisdom of selecting
for the highest office in the land
man who defaulted on a charge of
neglect and permitted his wife, the
mother of his children to obtain
legal separation. .
Vice-President Marshall looks like
the Harding of the situation, but
much wetter and considerably more
of a reactionary. The federal admin
istration is represented here in such
number in connection with the Mc
Adoo and Palmer candidacies that one
wonders if the distinguished public
citizen who under very tragic cir
cumstances exclaimed, God reigns
and the government at Washington
tin lives, would under similar cir
umstances say the same thing today.
uoa reigns, all right, for if he d dn't
his country might be in a terrible
dilemma Just at this time, but cer
atniy the government cannot be func
tioning in especially vigorous fashion
ight now, because most of the fed
ral machinery has been transferred
to San Francisco to wage a contest
for the presidential nomination now
going on between the two candidates
ust mentioned.
Tronble Over Platform. .
It is useless, however, to discuss a
this time the possible nominee of this
convention. It ought to be possible In
ne next few days to ascertain either
from Charles F. Murphy, Tom Tag
gart, George Brennan, John F. O'Mal
ley or Dennis E. Egan exactly who is
o be named. O Malley is a forme
Chicago saloonkeeper who appears to
succeed the late Roger Sullivan as th
Illinois democratic boss. Lest 1 for
get another esteemed personage who
is conspicuous in this convention,
there is "Bathouse John." former rub
ber in a Chicago bathhouse, who is
here to see that the Illinois delegation
does its duty patriotically.
Genuine trouble looms over the
platform, and particularly the league
of nations. I have it from Senator
Davis I. Walsh of Massachusetts this
afternoon that he intends taking the
floor to fight President Wilson's
league of nations plank.
Senator Walsh gave out a statement
of which this first sentence is typical.
it would be suicidal for the demo
cratic party to stand with the presi
dent on the league of nations."

ator who voted for the Lodge reser
vations, "that is true, but the demo
cratic party intends to commit sui

The Rose Festival of 1920 closed
last night with a repetition of the
electric parade, first given Tuesday
ight in honor of the Shrine.
While less than one-third of the
normous crowd of that occasion saw
the brilliant pageant repeated, with
the exception that it lost the vim
and enthusiasm the Shrine bands im
parted, the presentation of the elec-
ric parade was noticeably better.
Frank V. Smith, grand marshal
ushered the Royal Rosarian band on
to Washington street at 8:45 o'clock
to the dot, this being the first oc
casion on which this Rose Festival
function has ever moved so promptly.
Visitors Horse Show Guests.
Immediately behind the Rosarian
band was the Scotch kiltie police band
of Vancouver, B. C, with the brilliant
scarlet-clad detachment of the royal
northwest mounted police, famous in
song and story, as a guard of honor,
His worship Mayor Gale of Van
couver, rode as a guest of honor with
Mayor Baker, and immediately after
the parade was concluded, the mayor,
the kilties, the Rosarians and the
northwest mounted police were
guests at the horse show.
The fame of the mounted police
no less than their magnificent ap
pearance, was responsible for the re
markably warm reception given to
them by the crowds en route.
Lighting Is Improved.
The lighting of the floats was im
proved as a result of work done on
the ground connection, and the ab
sence of the flicker and grounding
flashes made the appearance of the
floats much more to be enjoyed.
In addition to the emblematic Shrine
floats shown in the original presenta
tion of the electric pageant, the lone
Polar bear float, the Zerolene trade
mark, which made such a fine show
ing in the floral parade, was shown
Illuminated and was one of the finest
entries.

tival association. The Rosarian band
and that of the kilties were donated
and occupied the place of honor.

health." said J. C. Lewin of 3616 Day

known qtnploye in the city engineer'
office. Mr. Lewin has lived in Seattle
for 33 years and previous to his pres
ent position was for 18 years con
nected with the county engineer'
office.
"For years my wife has been suf
fering with etomach trouble," con
tinued Mr. Lewin, "and last year she
had an attack of influenza that left
her in a very .weak and run
down condition. Nothing seemed
to do her any good and she
kept on getting worse until she
had a complete breakdown in health,
bhe suffered worse than ever, with
indigestion and was not able to eat
anything without suffering agony af
terwards. Even the lightest things
caused gas to form so badly on her
stomach that it pressed up around
her heart eo she could hardly breathe.
She had splitting headaches and at
times became so dizzy that she
couldn't stand up. Her nerves were
so shattered that It was impossible
for her to get a good night's rest.
The least noise would upset her and
many a night she just rolled and
tossed all night long. She finally got
so weak that she could not walk up
or down stairs and in fact could
hardly walk at all.

cided to get her a bottle and I am
mighty glad I did, for she started to

gained ten pounds but has the
strength to do all her housework and

ever did. .
"I was surprised at the change in
her after she started taking Tanlac.

her ever getting well. Tanlac cer
tainly put her on her feet and both

more like a lumber yard than a pas

form plank suggestions arrived with
the delegates that their special trains
clattered like fast freight lumber
trains.
A rough estimate would indicate
that it would take the resolutions

a day, if it planned to give all the
suggestions a full hearing.
Delegates in every car whiled away
