suddenly . loomed up with new
strength, which he drew from all the
others. He figured in the center of
the dark horse talk at that time.
The 17th ballot produced no nomi
nation and not a great deal of.change
In the relative position of the leaders.
Palmer gained 11. Cox lost 12 and
McAdoo lost 6. Davis grained 5, Cum
mings got 19 and Owen 36. Davis
got 57.
Ularhteenth Sera No Cliaiigc.
The 18th ballot wao a see-saw per
formance which made little change.
On the 19th ballot, as on the others,
the convention founo no nominee. A
few scattering shifts and changes
were all that it produced.
After 16 futile ballots at the after
noon session, the convention found
itself in a practical deadlock and af
ter having been in session eight con
tinuous hours, during which it dis
posed of ballots at the rate of 30 min
utes each, recessed for rest and con
ference. nrcrs It ProtMtfd.
Recess was taken under protest of
the Cox people, who were trying to
avoid it. The Palmer people and the
McAdoo people welcomed it, for it
gave them opportunity to confer and
strengthen their lines. Senator Har
rison of Mississippi, one of the lead
ers for the Cox candidacy, tried to
hold the convention in session, but the
delegates were tired, hungry and sick
of balloting and to all practical pur
poses the convention was in recess
before the clerk finished calling the
roll to decide the question and the
delegates were piling through the
doors to a noisy hub-bub long before
Chairman Robinson had opportunity
to announce the recess resolution
had been carried by 619 votes in fa
vor of It to 455 against it.
The language of the parleys be
tween McAdoo and Palmer was in
effect "now that you've stopped Mo
Ado help us stop Cox." Administra
tion leaders who saw the Cox boom
growing In the convention made no
secret of their fear of its proportions.
Glass Is Acalnat Cox.
Chairman Glass of The resolutions
committee, who spoke for President
Wilson in the framing of the party
platform, declared in talking with
friends that "It must not be Cox," and
when asked what would happen if
Cox got the majority of the conven
tion, and according to custom expect
ed the two-thirds vote. Glass replied
that "Champ Clark had a majority at
Baltimore. How Mr. Clark got
majority but failed of nomination is
only recent political history.
Several things seemed to stand out
above the noise and clamor and dis
comfort of the day's balloting. Prtn
clpal among them was the fact that
the McAdoo movement had not taken
on the "glacial moment" which Its
boomers had predicted for It. and that
the Cox people, who were openly very
discouraged a day or two ago, picked
up and made constant and consistent
gains which amazed their opponents
and the convention.
Palmer Vote Dwindles Away.
The Palmer vote dwindled away,
much to the dismay of the Pennsyl
vanlans, who loyally stood by the attorney-general
all the way through.
The recess, while ostensibly for din
ner, really gave the opposing forces
their much-needed opportunity to find
some sort of a common meeting
ground.
Outwardly there was little prospect
of a get-together movement between
the three leaders and the general in
dications were that the successful
forces would be obliged to concentrate
on a dark horse.
Davis, in view of his rising vote,
bad the edge on the dark horse po
sition when the convention reassem
bled. Chairman Cummings was not
entirely out of consideration. Frank
lin D. Roosevelt, assistant secretary
of the navy, was being discussed
among the New York delegates as a
possibility for the vice-presidential
nomination. As an administration
man, it was argued that he would
command administration support for
whatever candidate the New Tork
delegation would support. It was also
reported in convention articles that
Mr. Davis was the second choice of
William G. McAdoo.
SetsawlnK Done la Votes.
After the night session convened.
, the 17th, 18th, 19th and 20th attempts
were more or less seesaw perform
ances and kite flying expeditions in
which candidate managers tried to
find someone upon whom to center.
Dark horse talk centering about a
whole paddock of mentioned pobsI
bllities characterized the renewal of
the balloting. After the 18th ballot.
when no result had been attained, the
convention evidently decided it want
ed a little relaxation, for a demon
' stratlon started by the Cox people
soon oecame everybody s demonstra
" tlon in which a lot of atate stand
ards mixed Indiscriminately and the
usual number of scrimmages took

in again tonignt. whanging its mo
notonous drone, something about
"Ohio," the words of which were
drowned out in the din when the Cox
boomers tried to sing them.
MeAdos Picture Is Carried.
Representative Connelly of Texas
. appeared in the demonstration bear-
lng aloft the first picture of McAdoo
which appeared in the convention halt
It was evidently a home-made attempt
at a lithograph drawn from memory
probably. It looked more like & cari
cature. Lithographs of Cox made
their appearance. Cheer leaders sprang
up from unexpected places as the state
T standard moved around the hall in a
winding line.
The pipe organ, the convention band
and the Cox band were In an ear split

man Robinson and other convention
officials realizing the futility of at-
tempting to check what amounted to
- everybody s demonstration, sat placid
ly hoping the racket and the exhibit
' tion of energy, nervous and otherwise,
would wear itself out.
If the tradition that a democratic
convention never worked on Sunday
was good, the demonstration sig
nalized the postponement of the nom
ination contest until Monday because
with two hours and a half left for
business before midnight the crowd
1 showed no disposition to get down to
business. It roared and pranced and

adjournment, left Davis, but at 10
o'clock the Cox men -made a rally and
pusnea loi DacK to a total of only 14
votes less than his peak on the 15th
ballot. The convention broke into
disorder; the Cox boosters tried hard
to keep their candidate going. No
body knows what will happen, least
of all the managers of any of the can
didates. The deadlock is a fact; there is
much talk of adjournment till Mon
day. Nothing else will be possible
unless some method not now In eight
of ending the content Is found. Pro
phecy is futile but it is a reasonably
safe surmise that McAdoo is beaten.
Cox cannot get the needed two-thirds
and Palmer Is out of it except in the
remote contingency that the president
takes a hand and puts the adminis
tration behind him. Any solution in
deed suggested by the president ex
cept his own nomination will doubt
less unite the divided administrative
forces and bring forth a candidate.
WASHINGTON. July 3. President
Wilson has not expressed an opinion
to any one with reference to a par
ticular candidate tor the presidency,

House tonight by Secretary Tumulty.

ing statement:
" 'This is news to me- I had dis
cussed all phases of this convention)
with the president and had been in
Intimate touch with him during its
caucus and I am positive that he has
not expressed an opinion to anyone)
with reference to a particular candi
date for the presidency. It has al
ways been his policy to refrain from
taking any stand that might be con
strued as dictation." "
The president, it was said, retired
about 9:30 o'clock or shortly after tha
convention took its two hours' recesa,
During the afternoon while the bal
loting wnt on he, with Mrs. Wilson,
went for an automobile ride.
SAN FRANCISCO. July 2. Presi
dent Wilson in a telegram to National
Chairman Homer S. Cummings, which
was read today to the convention
declared that the course the demo
cratic convention had taken with re
spoct to the league of nations filled

purpose and nothing can defeat it."

from the convention, follows:
"The White House, July 2.
"Hon. Homer S. Cummings, chair
man democratic national com

"It was with the most grateful
appreciation that I received the mes
sage from the convention so kindly
transmitted by you. It Is a source
of profound pride with me to receive
such an evidence of the confidence of
tho great party which derives its
principles direct and untainted from
the founders of our government and
the authors of our liberty. While our
opponents are attempting to isolate
us among the nations of tha world,
we are following the vision of the
founders of the republic who promised
the world the counsel and leadership
of the free people of the United
States in all matters that affected
human liberty and the justice of law.
That promise we deliberately re
newed when we entered the great war
for human freedom and we now keen
I faith with those who died In Flanders'
fields to redeem it. mat x snouia
have been accorded leadership in such
great matters fills my heart with
gratitude and pride and the course
the party has taken fills me with a
perfect confidence that it will go
from victory to victory until the true
traditions of the republic are vindi
cated and the world convinced not
only of our strength and prowess,
but of our integrity and our devotion
to the highest ideals. This is a
conquering purpose and nothing; can
defeat it.

DEMOCRACY IN DEADLOCK

tised and widely expected stampede
to Davis of West Virginia.
It was now after 5 o'clock and the
convention had been steadily and mo
notonously balloting through seven
weary and unexciting hours. The
anti-Cox forces determined to force a
recess. They were joined by the del
egates who had begun to look about
for a dark horse, and the motion was
carried. It wao the opportunity of
the Davis delegates and they utilized
the interval to put the delegates in a
receptive frame of mind, but when
the convention reconvened, in an at
mosphere of feverish expectancy, it
soon was shown that the Davis move
ment had not made much headway
but up to the end of the 20th ballot
the several leading candidates were
in substantially the same positions
they had been throughout the day.
Teneuee Scares Convention.
The Tennessee delegation, which
bolted to Davis just before the recess
and frightened the convention into
THISTLE CLUB ORGANIZED
Co-operation May Solve Problem
of Dealing With Post.
ALB A NT, Or, July 3. (Special.)
The Canada Thistle club formed re
cently by farmers residing in the
vicinity of the Grand Prairie Grange
hall east of Albany now has 80 mem
bers and the club apparently has
solved the problem of dealing with
these pests through neighborhood co
operation. In most localities the majority of
the farmers fight the thistles, but a
few are neglectful and thus reseed
the dsitrict annually. The new club
will make it a matter of neighbor
hood pride, as well as compliance
with law, to prevent any thistles from
going to seed.
COLFAX SWEPT BY FIRE

creamery and a block of residences.
The fire was still burning at 1

der control. The fire started in the
feed mill. The cause was not known.
