CHAPTER XVI.
At Sea dirt we kept In closs touch
with our friends at Baltimore, so that
after each ballot the Kew Jersey can
didate was apprised of the result. Dur
ing; the trying; days and nights of the
convention the only
eager and anxious
ones in the family
group, besides my
self, were Mrs. Wil
son and the Wilson J..-
girls. The candl- f -f
date himself. Indeed, ft f -
seemed to take oniy ., W"' :
perfunctory Interest
In what was hap
pening at Baltimore.
He never allowed a
single ballot or the
changes those bal
lots reflected to ruf
fle or disturb him.
t. T. Tumulty.
Never before was the equable dis
position of the man better manifested
than during these trying days. Only
once did he show evidence of Irrita
tion. It was upon receipt of word
from Baltimore, carried through the
dally press, that his manager, Mr.
McCombs, was indulging in patronage
deals to secure blooks of delegates.
Upon considering this news he Im
mediately issued a public statement
saying that no one was authorized to
make any offer of a cabinet post for
him and that those who had done so
were acting without authority from
him. This caused a flurry In the
ranks of our friends in Baltimore, and
the statement was the subject of
heated discussion between the gover
nor and Mr. McCombs over the tele
phone. Of course, 1 did not hear what
was said at the other end of the wire,
but I remember that the governor
said, "I am sorry. McCombs. but my
statement must stand as I have Issued
It. There must be no conditions what
ever attached to the nomination."
And there the conversation ended.
While this colloquy took place I was
seated Just outside of the telephone
booth. When the governor came out
he told me of the tallt he had had with
McCombs, and that tholr principal dis
cussion was concerning the attempt
by McCombs and his friends at Balti
more to exact from him a promise that
In case of hrs nomination William Jen
rings Bryan should not be named for
the post of secretary of state; that a
great deal In the way of delegates'
votes from the eastern states depended
upon his giving thHs promise. The
governor then said to me: "I will not
bargain for this office. It would be
foolish for me at this time to decide
upon a cabinet officer, and It would
be outrageous to eliminate anybody
from consideration now, particularly
Mr. Bryan, who has rendered such fine
service to the party In all seasons."
AIIms Following Grows.
The candidacy of the New Jersey
srovernor sained with each ballot
only slightly, nowever but he was
the only candidate who showed an in
creased vote at each stage of the con
vention proceedings. The critical
period of the convention wa reached
Thursday nlstht. In the early after
noon we had reoeived Intimations
from Baltimore that on that night the
New York delegation would throw its
support to Champ Clark and our
friends at Baltimore were afraid that
If this purpose were carried out It
w ould result In a stampede to Clark"
We discussed the possibilities of the
situation that night after dinner, but
up to 10 o'clock, when the governor
retired for the night. New York was
still voting for Harmon. , I left the
Sea Olrt cottage and went out to the
newspaper men's tent to await word
from Baltimore. The telegrapher In
charge of the Associated Press wire
was a devoted friend and admirer of
the New Jersey candidate. There was
no one In the tent but the telegrapher
and myself. Everything was quiet.
Suddenly the telegraph instrument be
gan to register. Tl operator looked
up from the instrument and I could
tell from his expression that some
thing big was coming. He took his
pad and quickly begun to record the
message. In a tone of voice that indi
cated Its seriousness, he read to me
the following message: "NeW York
' casts Its 76 votes for Champ Clark.
Great demonstration on.' And then
the Instrument stopped recording.
It looked 'as If the "Jig was up."
Frankly, I almost collapsed at the
news. I had been up for many nights
and had had only a few hours' sleep.
I left the tent, almost In despair,
about 11 o'clock, ami returned to the
Sea Girt cottage, preparatory to go
ing to my home at Avon, X. J. As
I was leaving the cottage the gov
ernor appeared at cne of the upper
windows, clad in his pajamas and.
looking at me In the most serious
way, said: "Tumulty, Is there any
news from Baltimore?" I replied:
"Nothing new. governor." When we
were breakfasting together the next
morning, he laughingly said to me:
"You thought you eould fool me last
n4ght when I asked if there was any
word from Baltimore; but I couid
tell from the serious expression on
your fsce that something had gone
wrong." This was about the first
evidence of real Interest he had
shown In the Baltimore proceedings.
Oktnlmt stni Tide.
As will Be recalled, the thing that
prevented Champ Clark from gath
ering the full benefit which would
have come to him from the casting
of the New York vote In his favor
w.te a question by "Alfalfa Bill"
yurry. a delegate from Oklahoma.
He said: "Is this convention going
to surrender Its leadership to the
Tammany Tiger?" This stemmed the
tide towsrd Mr. dark and changed
the whole face of the convention.
It was evident that on Friday night
th deadlock stage of the convention
had bee-n finally reached. The Wilson
vote had risen to 354 and there re
mained without perceptible change.
It bogan to look as If the candidacy
of the New Jersey governor had
reached its full strength. The frantic
efforts of the Wilson men to win ad
ditional votes were unavailing. In
deed. Wilson's case appeared to be
hopeless. - On Saturday morning Mc
Combs telephoned) ea Orlt and asked
for the governor. The governor took
up the telephone and for a long time
listened Intently to what was being
aid at the other end. I afterward
learned that McCombs had conveyed
word to the governor that his case
wss hopeless and that it was useless
to continue the fight, and asked for
Instructions. Whereupon, the follow.

text of President Hard-
address at the burial of
an unknown soldier at Arlington cem
etery follows: 94
Mr. Secretary of War and Ladles
and Gentlemen:
We are met today to pay the im
personal tribute. The name of him
whose body lies before us took flight
with his imperishable soul. We know
not whence he came, but only that
his death marks him with the ever
lasting glory of an American dying
for his country.
He might have come from any one
of millions of American homes. Some
mother gave him in her love and
tnderness and her most cherished
hopes. Hundreds of mothers are
wondering today, finding a touch of
solace In the possibility that the na
tion bows In grief over the body of
one she bore to live and die. If need
be. for the republic. If we give rein
to fancy, a score of sympathetic
chords are touched, for in thla body
there once glowed the soul of an
-American with the asolratlons and
ambitions of a cltlxen who cherished
life and its opportunities. He may
have been a native or an adopted
son; thati matters little, because they
glorified the same loyalty, they sacri
ficed alike.
We do not know his station In life,
because from every station came the
patriotic response of the 6,000,000. I
recall the days of creating armies
and the departing caravans which
braved the murderous seas to reach
the battle lines for maintained na
tionality and preserved civilization.
Hers Typical American.
The service flag marked mansion
and cottage alike and riches were
common to all homes in the con
sciousness of service to the country.
We do not know the eminence of bis
birth, but we do know the glory of
his death. He died for his country,
and greater devotion hath no man
than this. He died unquestioning, un
complaining, with faith in his heart
and hope on his lips, that his coun
try should triumph and its civiliza
tion survive. As a typical soldier of
this representative democracy, he
fought and died, believing in the in
disputable Justice of his country's
cause. Conscious of the world's up
heaval, appraising the magnitude of
a war the like of which had never
horrified humanity before, perhaps,
he believed his to be, a service des
tined to change the tide of human
affairs.
In the death gloom or gas, the
bursting of shells and the rain of
bullets, men face more Intimately the
great God over all; their souls are
aflame and consciousness expands
and hearts are searched. With the
din of battle, the glow of conflict
and the supreme trial of courage,
come involuntarily the hurried ap
praisal of life and the contemplation
of death's great mystery. On the
threshold of eternity many a sol
dier, 1 can well believe, wondered
how his ebbing blood would color
the stream of human life, flowing on
after his sacrifice. His patriotism
was none the less if he craved more
than triumph of country; rather, It
was greater if he hoped for a victory
for all human kind. Indeed, I revere
that citizen whose confidence in the
righteousness of his country inspired
belief that its triumph s the victory
of humanity.
Cosqsnt la Hated.
This American soldier went forth
to battle with no hatred for any
people in the world, but hating war
and hating the purpose of every war
for conquest. He cherished our na
tional rights and abhorred the threat
of armed domination, and in the mael
strom of destruction and suffering
and death he fired his shot for lib
eration of the captive conscience of
the world. In advancing toward his
objective was' somewhere a thought
of a woria awaaenea; anu we are
here to testify undying gratitude and
reverence for that thought of a wider
freedom.
On such an occasion as this, amid
such a scene, our thoughts alternate
between defenders living and defend
ers dead. A grateful republic will be
worthy of them both. Our part Is to
atone for the losses of heroic dead
by making a better republic for the
living.
Sleeping In these hallowed grounds
are thousands of Americans who have
given their blood for the baptism of
freedom and its maintenance, armed
exponents of the nation's conscience,
it Is better and nobler for their deeds.
Burial here is rather more than a
sign of the government's favor, it Is
s suggestion of a tomb In the heart
of the nation sorrowing for its noble
dead.
Today's ceremonies proclaim that
the hero unknown Is not unhonored.
We gather him to the nation's breast.,
within the shadow of the capitol. of
Ing conversation took place in my
presence:
"So, McCombs, you feel it Is hope
less to make further endeavors?"
When McCombs asked the governo'
if he would Instruct his friends to
support Mr. Underwood, Mr. Wilson
said: "No. that would not be fair.
I ought not to try to influence my
friends in behalf of another candi
date. They have been mighty loyal
and kind to me. Please say to them
how greatly I appreciate their gen
erous support and that they are now
free to support a'ny candidate they
choose."
McCombs Easy Quitter.
In the room at the time of this
conversation between McCombs and
the New Jersey governor sat Mrs.
Wilson and myself. When the gov
ernor said to McCombs, "So you think
it Is hopeless?" great tears snood in
the eyes of Mrs. Wilson, snd as the
governor put down the telephone she
walked over to him and in the most
tender way put her arms around his
neck, saying. "My dear Woodrow, I
am sorry. Indeed, that you have
failed." Looking at her. with a smile
that carried no evidence of the dis
appointment or chagrin he felt at
the news he had Just received, he
said:
"My dear, of course 1 am disap
pointed, but we must not complain.
We must be sportsmen. After all,
It Is God's will, and I feel that a
great load has been lifted from my
shoulders." With a smile he re
remarked that this failure would
make It possible for them, when his
term as governor of New Jersey was
completed, to go for a vacation to
the English lake country a region
loved by them both, where they had
previously spent happy summers.
Turning to me, he asked for a pencil
and pad and informed me that he
would prepare a message of con
gratulation to Champ Clark, saying
as he left the room, "Champ Clark
will be nominated and I will give
you the message in a few minutes"
I afterwards learned that McCombs
was about to release the delegates
when Roger Sullivan, who had been
informed of McCombs" message to the
New Jersey governor, rushed oven to
McCombs and said to him: "Damn
you. don't you do that. Sit steady
in the boat."
This Is the true story of the oc
currence so strangely distorted by
Mr. McCombs In the book he left for
publication after his death, wherein
he would- make It appear that Gov
ernor Wilson had got In a panic and
tried to withdraw from the race;
whereas the panic was all in the
troubled breast of Mr. McCombs. a
physically frail, morally timid person,
constitutionally unfit for the task
of conducting such a fight as was be
ing waged in Baltimore. More sturdy
friends of Governor Wilson at the
convention were busy trying to brace
up the halting manager and persuade
him to continue the fight even
against the desperate odds that faced
them. But for these stronger natures,
among whom were old Roger Sullivan
of Illinois and W. G. McAdoo. the
battle would have been lost.

the towering shaft that honors Wash

exquisite monument to Lincoln, the
martyred savior. Here the inspira
tions of yesterday and the conscience
o today forever unite to make the
republic worthy of his death for flag
and country.
Oura are lofty resolutions today, as

the living. With all my heart I wish
we might say to the defenders who
survive, to mothers who sorrow, to
widows and children who mourn, that
no such sacrifice shall be asked
again.
Modem Warfare Tmeheross.
It was my fortune recently to see
a demonstration of modern warfare.
It is no longer a conflict In chivalry,
no more a test of militant manhood.
It is only cruel, deliberate, scientific
destruction. There was no contend
ing enemy, only the theoretic defense
of a hypothetic objective. But the at
tack was made with all the relentless
methods of modern destruction. There
was the rain of ruin from the air
craft, the thunder of artillery fol
lowed by the unspeakable devastation
wrought by bursting shells; there
were mortars belching their bombs of
desolation; machine guns concentrat
ing their leaden storms; there was the
Infantry advancing, firing and falling,
like men witb souls sacrificing for
the decision. The flying missiles
were revealed by Illuminating tracers,
so that we could note their flight and
appraise their dead lines.
The air was streaked with tiny
flames marking the flight of massed
destruction, while the effectiveness
of the theoretical defense was im
pressed by the simulation of dead
and wounded among those going for
ward undaunted and unheeding. As
thie panorama of unutterable destruc
tion visualized the horrors of modern
conflict there grew on me the sense
of the failure of a civilization which
can leave Its problems to such cruel
arbitrament. Surely no one In au
thority with human attributes and
full appraisal of the patriotic loyalty
of his countrymen could ask the
manhood of kingdom, empire or re
public to make such sacrifice until
all reason had failed, until appeal to
justice through understanding had
been denied, until every effort of love
and consideration for fellow men had
been exhausted, until freedom Itself
and inviolate honor had been brutally
threatened.
I speak not as a pacific fearing war,
but as one who loves justice and
hates war. I speak as one who be
lieves the highest function of gov
ernment is to give its citizens the
security of peace, the opportunity to
achieve and the pursuit of happiness.
America's Opportnnlty at Hand.
The loftiest tribute we can bestow
today the heroically earned tribute
fashioned In deliberate conviction, out
of unclouded thought, neither shad
owed by remorse nor made vain by
fancies, is the commitment of this
republic to an advancement never
made before. If American achieve
ment Is a cherished pride at home, If
our unselfishlness among nations is
all we wish it to be and ours is a
helpful example in the world, then
let iih s-lve of our influence and
strength, yea, of our aspirations and
convictions, to put mankind on a lit
tle higher plane, exulting ana exalt
ing with war's distressing and de
creasing- traaed es barred from tne
etage of righteous civilization. j
There have been a thousana ae
feniiea itiRtlv and Datrioticall v made:
a thousand offenses which reason and
righteousness ought to nave stayed.
Let un beseech all men to join us in
seeking the rule under which reason
and righteousness shall prevail.
Standing today on hallowed ground,
conscious that all America has halted
to share In the tribute of heart ana
mind and soul to thiB fellow Ameri
can and knowing that the world Is
notiner this expression or tne re
public's mindfulness, it Is fitting to
say that this sacriiics and that of the
millions dead, shall not be in vain.
There must be, there shall be, the commanding-voice
of a conscious civiliza
tion against armed warfare.
As we return this poor clay to Its
mother soil, garlanded by love and
covered with the decorations that
only nations can bestow, 1 can sense
the prayers of our people, of all peo
ples, that this Armistice day shall
mark the beginning of a new and
lasting era of peace on earth, good
will among men. Let me Join in that
prayer.
Our father, who art in heaven, hal
lowed be thy name. They kingdom
come, thy will be done on earth as
it Is In heaven. Give us this day our
daily bread and forgive us our tres
passes as we forgive those who
trespass against us. And lead us not
Into temntation. but deliver us from
evil, for thine is the kingdom and the
power and glory forever. Amen.

ARMISTICE DAY IS HOLY
Envoy Points to Stirring Events
in Washington as Harbinger
of Universal Concord.
LONDON, Nov. 11. (By the Asso
ciated Press.) "Today signalizes the
Joining of the past with the future,"
declared George Harvey, United
States ambassador to Great Britain,
in an Armistice day address here
tonight.
The occasion of his commemorative
discourse was a dinner to him and
Mrs. Harvey given by the English
Speaking union. It was presided
over by Captain Frederick E. Guest,
air secretary.
Ambassador Harvey alluded to
President Harding's proclamation
making the day a national holiday,
and pointed out the coincidence of
the day's falling on the 301st anni
versary of the- arrival of the May
flower. ,
Impressive Occasions Linked.
"On one bank of the Potomac," he
said, "in the sacred soil of Arling
ton cemetery, the body of our un
known soldier was lowered rever
ently to rest. On the other side of
that historic river, in the capital,
for the first time in history, are
gathered the foremost statesmen
from the uttermost parts of the earth
in a common determination to find
for the distracted peoples of the
world a way to peace and happineBS
which constitutes their priceless her
itage from the maker of the universe.
A memorial to our own patriot dead,
a harbinger of hope for all the living
such is the true purpose of this,
our holy day."
Ambassador Harvey asked rhetor
ically If history must be forevel
merely a narration of warfare.
Tolerance Supplants Force.
"The strength of a country is not
measured by armies and navies," he
declared. "A schoolhouse at a cross
roads is more potent ultimately than
a dreadnaught of the seas. One lit
tle church on a hill is worth a score
of regiments. Tolerance has .sup
planted Its antithesis as an actual
force. A peculiar responsibility de
volves upon our two peoples, not only
to maintain but to enhance the new,
better, higher power among men.
Mutual respect, confidence and toler-
ance those are the essentials of that
genius ror co-operation which has
aireaay won ror our cnrlstlan presi
dent the hearts of our own people
and is destined, I believe, to fetch the
English-speaking race into a har
monious relationship so nearly per
fect that all mankind will realize in
the near future that there is more
power and glory n 'Lead, Kindly
Light,' than in all the fighting an
thems of the world."
