Administration Opposition Re

WESTERNERS AID WALSH
Senator From Montana Main Con
tender Against Virginian for
Office of Convention.
BAN FRANCISCO, Cai-. June 27.
The fight aeainet (Senator Glass of
Virginia, the administration's choice
for chairman of tne resolutions com
mittee, remained indefinite tonight,
but was attracting Increasing atten
tion In convention goisip.
Administration leaders declared
there was no doubt of the outcome
and some of them even asserted that
the movement against Senator Glass
would collapse entirely before the
committee meets late tomorrow to
organise. Those active in the opposi
tion were less positive in their claims,
but they declared it was a real fight.
Support Given Walsh. ,
Senator Walsh of Montana", who re
jected President Wilson's advice and
voted la'st March for ratification of the
peace treaty with the republican res
ervations, was the candidate urged
against the Virginia senator. A group
of western delegates seemed to form
the backbone of the Walsh move
ment, but those in charge -of it con
ceded they were making their fight
under cover and said they did not
eare to tip their hand by revealing
who had promised support.
William Jennings Bryan expected
to be the center of platform disputes
in the committee, said he had no can
didate for (he chairmanship. He pre
viously has advocated Senator Walsh's
selection as permanent chairman of
the convention, however, and the gen
eral prediction was that if a roll call
were taken in the committee he
would line up against Senator Glass.
Chairman Ktght Dies.
The movement to make the Mon
tana senator permanent chairman ap
parently has been abandoned, though
it was said that some eastern states
which might have supported him for
that place probably would not be for
him for the resolutions chairmanship.
Advocates of Senator Walsh's can
didacy to head the committee insisted
that the fight was not essentially an
anti-administration one and that his
selection would not necessarily mean
overturning the administration pro
gramme of declaring for the peace
treaty without destructive reserva
tions. They declare they were con
ducting their whole campaign on the
basis of the personal qualification
the two men.

23 WAIT IN DEATH CELL
King Sing Condemned Row Objects
to Snores or Murderer.
NEW YORK, June 27, (Special.)
Twenty-three prisoners fill the Sing
Sing death house. One of them snores
and the others have trouble in getting
to sleep.
The man who snores Is Sam
Michalow. He was known as "Sam,
the Landlord" in New York. He was
convicted of the murder of a woman
in Yonkers done by men whom he
sent to rob her.
He goes to sleep first every night
and the other men in the death house
sometimes have to wake him up to
get to sleep themselves. So they have
asked the warden to put Sam in the
old death house as soon as another
man is condemned to die. The warden
refuses to use the old death house
when there's room in the new one.
MARSHALL IS SPONSORED
Former Delaware Senator Declares
for Vice-President.
SAN FRANCISCO. Cal., June 27
Former Senator Saulsbury of Dela
ware came out for Vice-President
Marshall today as the most available
man for the presidential nomination.
He predicted a deadlock for McAdoo,
Cox and Palmer.
Senator Saulsbury said the vice
president would be placed in nomi
nation and his name kept before the
convention to the end of the balloting.
RAINIER MILLS TO CLOSE
Dullness of Lumber Market Causes

RAINIER, Or., June 27 (Special.)
The Menefee Lumber mill announces
that they will close for 30 days next
Wednesday. The reason given is
dullness of the lurnber market, the
lumber costing more than can.be
realized for it.
PURDY VOTE FOR M'ADOO
Conllnued From first P e. )
Thomson, was elected vice-chairman
of the delegation. A majority of the
Btate s votes may . be cast for the for
mer speaker, delegates said, on open
ing convention ballots.
Election of Senator J. O. Wolcott as
national committeeman and member
of the resolutions committee from
pelaware was announced by the state
. delegation today.
Benjamin A, Hanoll was elected
chairman of the delegation.
State leaders said moet of the Dela
ware votes would go to McAdoo in
nomination balloting. .
The Mississippi delegation decided
to cast its first vote for Senator John
Sharp Williams for president. Moat
delegates were sjid to favor Cox on
subsequent ballots.
The Maine caucus took no action on
candidates or platform.
The enemies here of Bryan and of
prohibition claim that this creates an
issue between Bryan and Wilson, and
hope that it will cause administration
strength here to be cast Irt the bal
ance against Bryan's proposal. But
Bryan contends that an accurate un
derstanding of the circumstances and
reasons for Wilson's veto of the Vol
stead act will show that his plank
does not create an issue against the
president.
Bryan Wanted on Arid Plank.
Anyhow, Bryan doesn't care. He is
for a 100 per cent dry plank, and he
proposes to fight it through. He may
achieve success or he may achieve
martyrdom, and he doesn't much care
which. Speaking of martyrdom, the
most amusing sidelight on Bryan's
dry fight comes from one of the wet
leaders. With an air of disgusted ap
prehension of defeat, he said, "it we
are going to be forced to tcke the
dryest possible position in the plat
form, then we might as well be con
sistent and name the dryest possible
candidate. If Bryan forces the dem
ocratic party to adopt a dry plank.
tnen we ll make him take the nom
ination for the presidency."
He. said it with the air of visiting
tne most cruel and unusual of punish
ments on the most undesirable of
human beings. Of course, the remark
carried implications of slaughtering
Jtsryan at the polls in November.
Divorce Discussion Resented.
The friends of Governor Cox bitterly
resent the discussion that has gone
on for a week among the delegates
and leaders and that has now crept
into print, about the fact of their can
didate's divorce and remarriage while
his first wife is yet living as a con
sideration affecting his availability.
The governors friends and mana
gers are so passionately committed to
his fortunes and are so passionate in
their certainty that the facts of the
divorce constitute no reflection on
him that they are unable to see things
in any other than in the lights of
loyalty and friendship. They are un
able to see it impersonally. They can't
be made to see any other point of
view than their obligation to defend
their friend and leader against what
they feel is, and what probably is, a
wholly unjust implication.
But the leaders, who are in a posi
tion to be impersonal about it, say
this episode. In Its bearing on naming
a candidate for the presidency, has
two lights, wholly impersonal to Gov
ernor Cox.
First is the light of expediency and
second is the light of merit. On the
point of expediency It is idle to deny
that large numbers of persons have
convictions or emotions on divorce
and remarriage such as. would lead
them to vote according to those con
victions and emotions. On this re
stricted ground Governor Cox' posi
tion puts him definitely under one of
these handicaps which everybody
knows to exist. It Is, If you care to
put it that way, like being a member
of the Catholic church.
Every politician knows that in run
ning for a national office in which the
appeal must be madi for votes in
every state and territory of the coun
try as a whole to be a Catholic is a
handicap which will certainly lose a
large number of votes. This handicap
is illustrated right here and now. The
Dresent democratic governor of New
York lsa Catholic and there Is not a
politician here or anywhere but read
ily realizes that the position of a pop
ular and successful governor of New
York would make that governor not
only an available but extremely de
sirable candidate for the presidency.
The fact that Governor Smith is
barely mentioned is due chiefly to the
fact that he is a Catholic. That this
constitutes a handicap is so widely
known that it is taken for granted.
We all know that people ought not to
have that kind of prejudice, but we
all know that some people do have it.
Cox Is More Handicapped.
As a matter of fact. Governor Cox'
handicap is more clear and definite
than the wholly expedient religious
handicap of Governor Smith. There
is an intangible but nevertheless real
merit in the objection to Goverm r
Cox as a candidate for the presi
dency. The president of the United States
is not only the chief executive of the
country's business, he is also sup
posed to be, in a sense, the embodi
ment and the symbol of our national
ideals, of our national traditions and
of our national way of looking at
things. A president has this func
tion just as a king has it abroad. It
is the functions of being a symbol
and personal embodiment 'of his peo
ple's traditions and points of view.
That American traditions do not In
clude divorce and remarriage, there
can be no doubt. ' Large numbers and
wide varieties of persons, who com
pletely condone divorce and remar
riage in an individual and who would
vehemently oppose any discrimination
against the individual because of It,
would, on the other hand, prefer that
there would not be such a definite
affirmation of national acceptance of
divorce and remarriage as woulJ be
involved in putting into the White
House a candidate who has had that
experience, when It is entirely pos
sible to choose other candidates of
relatively equal worth who have net
happened to have this experience. No
one would like to see a campaign con
cern itself in any degree with such
issues as this, but it would be a)
likely to arise in the campaign as
It ha arisen now.

President Forfeits Privacy.
There are reasons of taste which
make It strongly repugnant to large
numbers of people to participate in,
or even to be compelled to look on
at, any allusion or discussion of any
thing so private and personal as a
divorce Is. That the president of the
United States, or a candidate for
president forfeits many of the rights
of privacy that others have and that
the details of the president's family
life become immediately a matter of
public comment, Is universally known.
The fact that this episode has already
come to the front is a proof of it.
These are the factors that influence
many of the leaders who regret that
this episode has been thrust into the
situation. They fully concede the
complete Impracticability of Governor
Cox position, but they shrink a little
from naming a candidate who would
entail this kind of discussion at all.
That the discussion could not be
avoided is proved by what has al
ready arisen here.
