GO PROBLEM 1 6-Rcpreeiilative Plan Proponed With No Alternatives Many Prominent Men in Race. TIIE SUNDAY OREGONIAN, rOKTXAN'D, JUNE 13; 1920 ' : - 0 DEMOCRATS iifU2S BOI.src. Idaho. Juije 12. (Special.) The democratic state convention which convenes at I.ewiston Tuesday for the purpose of naming delegates lo the national convention at San Francisco will be asked and if so will grant the request to indorse ex-Ciov-ernor James H. Hawley of Boise as the party's candidate for vice-president of the United States. The friends of Mr. Hawley are active in his behalf and have hopes of presenting his name to the national convention for second place on the national ticket. Mr. Hawley is the leading pioneer public man of Idaho today. He is its dean in politics. Besides having served his state one term as governor and represented it in the legislature, he has been a candidate for United States senator and for other high of fices. His friends urged his name upon President Wilson for appointment to the cabinet portfolio of secretary of the interior to succeed Franklin K. Lane. They were not successful then, although it was generally admitted that Mr. Hawley is one of the best qualified men in the west on western lnnd matters. They believe they can obtain the indorsement of the state convention as Idaho's candidate for the vice-presidency. Many IJclKnlen AMpirnntn. I p; It is the plan of democratic party leaders to give Idaho as large a rep resentation as possible at the national convention. NVhile there is objection to the plan, it will be proposed to the lewiston convention that Idaho elect 16 instead of eight delegates and eight alternates, allowing each a half a vote. In support of this plan it is said that there will be greater satisfaction among the delegates to the stae con vention. The really knotty problem to solve at Lwiston is to take care of the numerous aspirants for positions on the delegation. Every democrat of any pronjinence wants to go lo the national convention. There is a greater demand for places on the del egation this year than at any other time in the history of the party. That is what leaders say, and they are doing quite a little worrying over deciding on ways and means with which to accommodate the delegate aspirants. Apportionment In Problem. It is the relative proximity of this Btate to San Francisco that makes a beat in the national convenion so at tractive to democrats generally in Idaho. Of course, it goes without saying that there will be no alternates if the 16 delegate plan goes through. Half of the 16 probably will be elected at large and other other half divided between the two congressional dis tricts. How to apportion these delegates is another problem. Every part of the state desires representation. Many of the party leaders are at Boise. To eive all of them positions on the del egation is going to be next to impos sible. Who, then. Is to be let off with out giving offense? That is the ques tion that those in charge of the con vention would like to have solved. For instance, there are such men as ex-Jovernor Alexander. ex-Governor Hawley. former United States Senator K. I. V'erky, United States Senator John F. Nugent, former State Chair man Joseph T. Pence and others here who would like to go- as delegates. They cannot all be named, is the con clusion that has been reached. r red T. Dubois, ex-United States Senator, said to be a candidate for national committeeman in opposition to Robert H. Elder, will go to the Lewiston convention with fairly good support from the southeast. Several of the larger counties In the southern anu eastern pari ot the state are claimed for him. including Twin Falls and Bannock. The Twin Falls county delegation contains such men as R. H Stevenson, formerly of Wallace, who is opposed to Nugent. That delega tion indorsed James R. Bothwell for delegate to the national convention. Bothwell has been mentioned as pos sible timber for governor. He. is an ex-judge of the 4th judicial district. JUNIORSWORK PLANNED Industrial Club Winners to Attend Summer School.
