THE MORNING OREGOXIAN, SATURDAY. JULY 3, 1920 W 1 1 NAME ANY BUT HIMSELF Cringing Delegates Deter mined on One Point. SILENCE IS ANNOYING Ears of Convention Attuned Catch Orders From Washing ton but Xone Come. to quieted. Chairman Robinson recog nized Senator Glass. When the convention had been in session an even seven hours it was still in the platform debate and a good hour or more from a vote. The negotiations among some of the candidate managers for a recess after disposition of the platform and to pro ceed to balloting for a nominee at the night session did not seem to be mak ing much progress. Some of the managers declared the work of the convention must be finished Satur day and they proposed to hold in ses sion all night and tomorrow with little interruption If necessary. Judge Moore of Youngstown, O.. the Cox manager, said he had agreed to go through with an all-night session for balloting and it was likely that the other candidate managers would agree. M'DOO OUNCES T FADED YET Son-in-Law Gets 50 Dele gates Over-Night. SEVERAL DEALS BREWING DEFEAT PUZZLES BRYAN COM MOVER CAN'T RECONCILE VOTE TO DEMONSTRATION. ET JAMES J. MONTAGUE. Copyright by the Bell Syndicate, lno. Published by arrangement.) SAN FRANCISCO, July 2. (Spe cial.) Scattered about this beautiful city are groups and knots of weary and careworn delegations all with their ears turned inquiringly toward Washington, D. C. These delegates came to San Francisco expecting to take their party out of the hands of the president and run it themselves. Five days of fruitless dickering have taught them that the thing can't be done. Just as fast as they have tried to agree on a man somebody haa told them that Wilson didn't want him. The president has kept them out of Palmer, out of Cox and out of several bush candidates in turn. Now they are afraid that he is going to keep them out of McAdoo. out of Davis and out of Colby. What they will do in such a dread event they don't know. They do know one thing, however. Scared as they are of the grim figure that dominates the con vention from a distance of 2000 miles, they will not nominate him. Etrn South Might Bolt. A lot of them would like to. Scores Of them contend that he wants the Job himself and that there will be nothing but trouble in sight for the party if they don't give it to him. But there is not a man here who believes that the democrats could even keep the south in its old-time solidity if President Wilson were renominated. It is not that they fear Wilson less, for they are still in abject terror of him, but that they fpar the annihilation of their party more. It takes a long time to lose the rever-ence for an Individual that has been a daily habit with politicians for eight years. A shudder of horror runs over the delegates when anybody dares to heave a verbal brickbat at the gen tleman at the other end of the long distance telephone. Of the lot Bryan is the only one who frankly sneers at his former chief and his sneers which interlard his newspaper ar ticles are not helping him much with , hi fia-ht airainst the demon, which. 'on the other hand, is closer to his heart than anything else except the idea that he may get the nomination for himself., WanhinRton Still Silent. Up to a late hour today nobody had been able to get any instructions . from Washington. With the nomina tion 24 hours off, the convention doesn't know where it 1b going and isn't even on its way. About every ten minutes a conver sation, much like this, speeds over the hills and rocks and the rills, over the lakes and plains: San Francisco "That you, Joe? Washington "Yes." San Francisco "Said anything yet?" Washington "Not yet." Sun Francisco "When's going to?" Washington "I'll let you know." ' But he doesn't let them know, much as he would probably like to. Mr Wilson is fond of the dream, but .ob jectively and subjectively. But if he has any choice among the - assortment of relative appointees and faithful retainers who are out here claiming to be his heirs presumptive and apparent, he will spring it at a very late hour and in very suddeVi fashion. But there are many here who be lieve that he is holding up orders to the very last minute, believing that in default of them the convention will renominate him. This they will not do. And they will keep on not doing it till he gives uo. and word comes over the wire that he has made a choice. And if the choice is somebody that neither von or I ever heard of don t be sur prised. Whoever it is he will bo the nominee. MANY CLAIMS PRESENTED 2 1.3 7 9 Industrial Accidents Re ported During Year. SALEM. Or., July 2. (Special.

Palmer Vote Expected to Scatter Soon After First Ballot and Some Will Go to Cox. (Continued From First Page.) Xebraskan Refuses to Say Who Will Get His Vote May Not 4 Attend Convention Today. SAN FRANCISCO, July 2. William J. Bryan said tonight he would have no statement to make at this time re garding the action of the convention on his planks beyond that he was surprised at the vote cast against his various propositions. Mr. Bryan said he regarded the demonstration when he finished speaking as a personal tribute. It was not a manufactured affair, he added. The band did not play, he said, having orders not to do so. The Nebraskan would not say whether he would support the ticket because it had not yet been named. Neither would he indicate who he would vote for in the convention to morrow. He did not even know whether he would go to the audito rium tomorrow, he said. Mr. Bryan was somewhat exhausted tonight as a result of his two speeches in the onvention today. till Another Storeroom to Be Added December 1 Nest, When Lease Thereon Mas Expired.

The jury which ' had been called was dismissed. Mrs. Duffy represented that she was Mrs. W. D.

LABOR BACKS DRY LAW Washington Trade Unionists Also Declare for Irish Freedom. SPOKANE, Wash., July 2. The fed eral prohibition amendment was in dorsed and sentiment expressed for "the enforcement of the Volstead act by the Washington State Federation of Labor, in convention here today. Another resolution declared for th freedom of Ireland. A resolution in dorsing the "one big union" was ruled out -on a point of order. pital hastened to the scene of the accident with the police. They said there was no hope of Kennedy's re covery. There were 20 passengers in I the streetcar, some of whom were badly shaken up. None was taken to the hospital. Two ambulances car ried the more seriously injured to St. Vincent's hospital. Lambert, who was only slightly hurt, was taken from the hospital to the city jail. Lambert said that he was thrown through the windshield when the automobile and streetcar came together. Lambert, who was the only one of the autoists in condition to talk, told the police that he had met Kennedy in a pool hall, and had taken him out because he saw Kennedy was being fleeced in a pool game. He said they walked around the street for a while, and then Kennedy proposed an auto mobile ride. Lambert accepted the Invitation, and after Kennedy had secured the machine he met Kennedy and Claytor t Sixth and Burnside streets, and they drove to the Kennedy home and got the two sisters. They had been the automobile only a few minutes when the accident occurred. Our Store Opens at 9 A. M. Our Store Closes 5:30 P. M. $1,000,000 Mortgage Executed. ROSEBURG, Or., July 2. (Special.) One of the largest mortgages ever filed in the local county clerk's office was entered for record today, the document being given by the Lake Timber company to William Kj-oll, and was for the purchase of large timber holdings near Reedsport, the amount being $750,000. The mortgage repre sents the transfer of property amounting to over $1,000,000. rimarles having been conducted by Eugene C. Bonniwell, a McAdoo sup porter, a large portion of that delega- ion will be slow to go over to the on-in-law. If McAdoo is the winner the final est Is likely to be between him and Cox because a large part of the Penn- ylvania Palmer vote can go nowhere lse than to Cox. The Palmer and Cox groups were in consultation through their leaders last night and today. There was gloom in both camps today and it was noticeable that all f their aggressiveness was gone The big Cox band, brought all the way from Ohio at an expense of sev ral thousand dollars, and the mon- ter Palmer band, brought all the way from Philadelphia, together with quartet, at a cost of many more thousands, were as silent as the grave today. Cox Band Is Silent. Not once during the lull of the pro eedings as on other days was there an outbreak from the Cox band to he tune, "Ohio," and the Palmer quartet and band seemed to be equal ly dead to the world. "Palmer, Pal mer, Pennsylvania," sung to the tune of "John Brown's Body," never once nterrupted the convention pro gramme. All that a Palmer man or a Cox man would say was that the cabinet big four sent here from Washington to nominate McAdoo was using un fair methods to win. They would ask if the country de sired another four years of Burle son and of what value was a plat form plank on a free speech and free press if Mr. Burleson was to continue postmaster-general for another four years. Kdward Delegation United. If there are any last ditchers in the convention, they are the New Jersey delegates who came here sup porting Governor Edwards on the single plank, "a nation as wet as the Atlantic." The Edwards delegates may vote for McAdoo when finally someone moves to make it unani mous but not before. When they eave Edwards they are expected to go to Cox, a candidate of equal alco holic content, but not so frankly labeled. Irish democrats were sulking today over the majority plank on Ireland offered to the convention. Frank P. Walsh, representing the De Valera government and the Sons of Irish Freedom, specifically requested the platform committee not to give an expression of sympathy if It could n,ot ndorse Irish independence. The ma jority recommendation) give nothing that he asked and everything that he opposed. Irish Make No Headway. The league of nations plank, though somewhat amended by Senator Walsh of Massachusetts, leaves the Irish just where they started, an expres sion of sympathy with no recom mendation for a strong reservation, Article ten of the league of nations covenant, is plainly an insult to the Irish independencers. It was asserted by Woodrow Wilson and some of his worshipful followers early in the campaign for the Wilson league that article. 10 is the "pills section. The Irish say that is tru and the reservation democrats. o whom there were 23 in the senate wh voted for the Lodge reservation, say the same thing. A. pillar is all right in its proper function as prop, or a support, these fellows say, but -the long debates o the league covenant have destroyed somewnat the arcnitectural ertect o this particular pillar. Instead of be ing a support to a great structure it becomes a sort of lavalliere attache to a chain' around the neck of th democratic party and bound to dra it down, and down, and down. Sym parthy tor the Irish with article indorsed gives the Irish about th same satisfaction that the child gets out of having the enraged parent as he wields the ugly strap, say, "ah, my child, this hurts me more than you.' McAdoo Still Contender. The democratic platform hangs th Irish and sympathizes with thara i the same breath. On the liquor question, the dele gates to the convention applauded wet the whole livelong day, then voted neither wet nor dry as a ma jority when confronted by the ques tion. All day long I was told by certain politicians in all other camps except the McAdoo forces that the son-in-law had been stopped, that he could not win, but I will not believe it until I see it happen. I have witnessed here something that I have never seen In another gathering of its kind where men con gregated to transact public business. I have looked on for four days at the proceedings of a supposedly deliber ative body in which the bulk of the men doing the voting had no real voice. This convention is bossed into humiliating servility and the presid ing officer. Senator Robinson of Arkansas, rules according to what the machine wants regardless of the expressions of the delegates. Such a formidable steam roller has never before been operated in public view, thus demonstrating how human genius has advanced in the last four years. MATTERS TO BE DISCUSSED WITH GERMANS TAKEN UP. Marshal Koch and Others Report on Disarmament Clauses De clared Not Executed.. BRUSSELS, July 2.

HOOD RIVER, Or.. July 2. Gordon G. Brown, horticulturist of the Hood River experiment station, yesterday reported discovery of fire blight in Spltzenberg trees on the east side grade, a short distance from the city,- While he believes growers can eradicate the disease before it spreads, he says utmost vigilance and co-operation of orchardists will be necessary. "The infections should be cut out at once," says Mr. Brown. "The dis ease appears in fruit spurs and twigs. The cuts should be made at least a foot below the point of in fection. All wounds should be dis infected with cyanide of mercury, one gram of mercury to 50 grams of water. Tools used in the pruning however, must be disinfected with bichloride of mercury. Aphids will spread the disease, and 1 urge 1 growers to spray for these insects with tobacco solution. G0MPERS SEES SLAVERY Labor Head AVarns of Time When Right to Strike Is Denied. SAN FRANCISCO. Cal.. July 2 Samuel Gompers, president of the American Federation of Labor, de clared in a luncheon address here to day that the moment the right to stop work was denied to labor, Slav ery would be established. "There is no organized movement that is doing so much to prevent strikes as organized labor," said Gompers.
