The committee- if Mr. McAdoo is nomi unit rule was enforced, however, ana nated, there is not much doubt of his working just a little harder to morrow to win the nomination for himself or his friend Palmer. Poverty Plea Is Upset. Mr. McAdoo's poverty plea was further upset by the disclosure today that 12 or 16 California delegates are voting for him on the score that he Is soon to become a resident of this state. The Santa Barbara post master, holding his father's proxy. Implores his fellow delegates on each ballot to stick to McAdoo because the latter has purchased a very large tract of valuable ground at Santa Barbara and proposes soon to erect one of the most magnificent winter residences in southern California. This information, when added to the fact that a McAdoo summer home was recently purchased at Hunting ton, Long Island, at extravagant cost, increase the evidence of insincerity, hypocrisy and plain buncombe which characterize the open and itching desiro of a certain candidate to ob tain a nomination which he is "too poor" to accept. Helfner for "Good Man." Charles Heifner of Seattle, recog nized in New Jersey and at the Wilson headquarters In Washington, D. C. early in 1912 as tne original Wilson man of the northwest, is here work ing for the nomination of, Senator Robert L. Owen of Oklahoma or "any good man." Never a coward at any time In his life and sincerely inter ested in democratic success, ' with honor, he is protesting with all his might against the .nomination of Mr. McAdoo and the attempts of Presi dent Wilson to force hla son-in-law onto the party. lie is one democrat who talks aloud. He gave me permission this morning to quote him as follows: What the great mass of the rank nd file of the democratic party is demanding now is that the dead hand shall be taken off this convention, and that the men who fight the bat tle of the party shall be given an op portunity to name their choice for president and vioe-presldent without dictation from cabinet officers or les ser federal officials." Cox. McAdoo to Combine. But still I decline to make predic tions, because against all that I learned from the leader jirst out of conference I find the widespread feeling that some time today or to night the McAdoo managers and the Cox managers "w ill get together and agree on a ticket that will read: For president, William Gibbs McAdoo; for vice-presid'ent. James M. Cox. I do not believe It. Murphy, Tag- Bart, Brennan and the other great boss, Jim Nugent of New Jersey, will hold another all-night caucus to night which will be worth watching. One fact stands out unmistakably tonight and that is that nothing has happened - since the convention ad journed last night to break the dead lock. The Cox and the McAdoo boosters will renew their efforts in the morning in behalf of their re spective candidates and I cannot see the success of either of theme his vote was cast for Palmer. Secretary IHiniels sits with the Vorth Carolina delegation and is nandling it in his own way for Mc adoo, while Postmaster-General Bur leson, wfcth Tom Love, former assist int secretary of the treasury, deliv !rs the Texas delegation with great egularity on every ballot to the White House heir. At the same time Senator Carter Glass of Virginia, former secretary of the treasury, re tains the Virginia delegation for him self under a unit rule because if he permits It to break away, the ma jority of the delegates will vote against President Wilson's daughter's husband. Proxy Delea-atra Protested. But that is not all against which this conference protested and ex pressed its deep resentment, accord ing to my informant. The scheme by which federal employes obtained seats as delegates and are seeking to hold their delegations in line for the son- in-law was denounced as against sound public policy. It was pointed out that a large number of federal officials fearing to be too active in primaries and conventions. Induced friends to be candidates for delegates. After these friends succeeded, proxies were delivered to the goverpment Job-holders who are holding down the seats and voting for McAdoo on every ballot. One of the many examples of this . aort is the postmaster of Santa Barbara, Cal., who ran his father for delegate. The father won and the postmaster wears the delegate's badge and is leading a struggle to keep a large number of delegates from southern California in line for Mr. McAdoo, the candidate who is too poor to run for the office. Postmasters are under the civil service which forbids all political activity. A few Wilson office holders, more daring than the rest, are actually occupying seats in their own name and pulling for the White House can didate. One of these is Governor Thomas Riggs of Alaska. When a well-known democrat from Seattle told Governor Riggs last night that he was ready to support any candi date mentioned except McAdoo, the Alaska governor broke into a rage and exclaimed: "Then you are against Che administration." Delegates Wrathful Over Pose. The whole farce of the son-in-law pretending that he is not a candidate while his retainers fight to the last flitch to nominate him is stirring the wrath of all the other forces and of many of the delegates who would like to retain some self-respect and re cpect for the democratic party. An example of the brazen falsity of all Mr. McAdoo s pretenses of shrink lng from a nomination is offered in the conduct of his next-door neighbor and close personal friend, Stuart G. Gibbony. who announced on his way Co San Francisco that he was author lred to do anything to prevent the naming of the son-in-law. Mr. Gib lony obtained a delegate's proxy soon After hla arrival here and when the New York delegation set aside the onlt rule yesterday he began voting lor McAdoo. He was not satisfied at that, but pranced up and down the aisle on every ballot pleading and praying witn otnera to get In and help. The New Tork delegation sits im mediately behind the Washington delegation. and Gibboner all the afternoon and to the end f the J2d ballot last night to In duce Washington to cast a solid vote for the Wilson heir.

CITY WILL WAR ON RATS Government Experts to Direct Cam paign Arrive In Portland. With the arrival in Portland this week of two modern "pied pipers' in the shape of two government experts sent out. by the United States public health office, a campaign of rat ex termination is to be started in the city as the best means of preventing me ouoonic piague lrom getting a foothold here.

The campaign to be inaugurated in Portland will be one of similar cam palgns all over the country. The bubonic plague is primarily a disease which is carried and transmitted by rodents, especially rats, and the best means of controlling it has been found to be to exterminate the rat. The campaign for the extermination of rats will be directed by the experts from the health office with the co operation of the city council, it was announced. Palmer Is Ont of Race.

July 4. (Spe cial.) William Gibbs McAdoo's band wagon, which was running along smoothly and making pleasing prog ress, ran into a washout on the tenth ballot yesterday afternoon Just 385 votes from its main terminal in Oregon, i Oregon stands as the base of all calculations In the McAdoo candidacy because it was the only state sending a delegation here solidly instructed for the president's son-in-law, and by a washout I mean that McAdoo's can didacy encountered the great wet drive which showed up in behalf of Governor Cox of Ohio on the seventh ballot. The halting of the McAdoo move ment was not a sudden development. McAdoo Stopped by Bosses. The real plans for .stopping the vvhlte House heir were 'worked out at an all-night conference between Charles F. Murphy. Tammany chief tain; George Brennan, Illinois boss; Tom Taggart, Indiana boss, and James R. Nugent, head of the New Jersey democratic state machine. There was no secret as to the con ference. All of the candidates were considered and Cox was chosen for the fight because of his advantageous location in a pivotal state and for his known leanings toward the, wet side or the prohibition issue. The first acquaintance I met on my arrival at the auditorium yesterday morning was a man high in the man agement of the candidacy of Governor Edwards of New Jersey, outspoken wet. tie said: "Well, we have McAdoo stouned. He will not get more than 400 votes." .Much additional Information was volunteered regarding the all-night conference which was upheld in every aetau.oy wnat began to happen on the seventh ballot. On that ballot New York's delegation of 90 left Gov ernor Smith and gave 68 votes to Cox. New Jersey swung away from Edwards, giving Cox 25 of it's 28 votes. Indiana Starts Break. McAdoo received 884 votes on the seventh ballot which was within one vote of his peak attained on the tenth ballot. McAdoo lost ground steadily and Cox gained ground In the states over which the big men of last night s conference held control Taggart's state of Indiana, started to break away earlier than New York and New Jersey but unfolded the plan more slowly, giving only four votes on the fifth ballot and feeding a few more in for the Ohio governor on each ballot until on the fifteenth when the entire 30 went to him. New Jersey gave its entire 28 to Cox on the fifteenth ballot. Cox had risen steadily from 195 on the sixth ballot to 468 on the fif teenth ballot, while McAdoo had shrunk from 385 on the tenth ballot his highest vote, to 337 on the six teenth. une lox demonstration after an other followed the announcements o Cox gains and the McAdoo leaders were becoming discouraged on the twelfth ballot, admitting then that it ooked like their man had no chance. Cox Chance Seems Hopeless. The sole importance of the Palmer candidacy attached to the possible trend of his support in the break away. When Cox dropped on the sixteenth ballot from 4G8 to 454 Vz it became apparent that he had about exhausted his possibilities unless Attorney General Palmer would quit the race and release thereby a very large number of wet votes in Pennsylvania and two or three other states. Palmer had given Cox his 36 votes in the Illinois delegation to which Boss Brennan very generously added eight more for good measure, mak- ng 44. Moreover it was obvious that the number of delegates who could be voted for a wet candidate was ex hausted without some help from the Palmer lineup and two or three of the favorite sons. Tennessee's swing of its entire 24 votes on the sixteenth ballot to John W. Davis of West Vir ginia, for whom it had never cast more than five votes previously, looked like the first stampede from the big three candidates and was ac cepted as an intimation that the dark horse movement was on. Adjournment Downs Dark aHorse. Here an adjournment was moved by the anti-Cox forces, which .car ried, and this recess, taken until 8 o'clock, probably prevented a nomi nation being made yesterday. During this recess the Cox managers begged the bosses to hold on for a few bal lots and give them a chance to recoup their losses. Tennessee was implored to return to the Cox lines on the sev enteenth ballot, but after that it be came plain that the entire contest had degenerated into a struggls between the bosses on the one hand and two groups of federal office holders on the other. A southern delegate leaving the Ride on Goodyear Tires in That Sturdy Small Car of Yours m It surprises certain users of small cars to find that they can, obtain Goodyear Tires at a first cost ordinarily not greater, and sometimes less, than that of other tires. This initial value, as well as the very low final cost, results from the application of Goodyear experience and care to their manufacture in the world's largest tire factory devoted to 30x3-, 30 x 3V2" and 31 x 4-inch sizes. Such facts explain why more cars, using these sizes, were factory -equipped last year with Goodyear Tires than with any other kind.

"My delegation, for example," he said, "has been willing to get in and help nominate some good compromise candidate ever since the sixteenth Hiallot, but one Palmer man has been egging us to hold on for Palmer just because his job $ at stake." McAdoo men were holding on for the same reason, and the bosses were holding on to Cox. still hoping, how ever, that they might obtain in lieu of a wet platform a genuinely wet candidate. Now at the close of the twenty- mings or some other equally popular dark horse on Monday or Tuesday, just as soon as the federal job-holders come to understand that their strug gle for their present hero Is hopeless.
