MEET TOGS READY
- By I. C. Martin
. San - Francisco, June 21. (TJ. P.)
A week from the opening of their
national -'convention here. Demo
crats find themselves as puzzled and
bewildered as the Republicans ". at
Chicago before their k "unbossed
convention met. 7 1.-
The Democrats, too, are bosaleaa and
as a result those here mill around seek
ing the answers to a number of ques
tions, including: :. - .
Will President Wilson ask for the
nomination for a. third term T What is
Bryan going to-do, and will he be able
te wrest control from the president? - ?r
What bad the party better do about
the liquor question? And why did Mc
Adoo retire from the campaign?
AWSWEBS GO BEGGI3TO
There are more questions some of the
Democrat would like answered if they
could , find, anyone who Knows the an
swers. They are chiefly concerned to
day, however, about just two men Wil
son and Bryan. As nobody here has any
idea what either of these has up his
sleeve in the way of convention trumps,
there is- a general disposition among the
managers- of candidates -to - go : pretty
slowly until the Wilson and Bryan pro
grams begin to appear.
As one astute campaign manager put
it " today, "they don't want to' have to
take back anything later that they may
say now,, so they r are saying nothing
about anything. -
' San Francisco 'will, take on its "con
vention clothes this week with the ar
rival . of state, delegations. . the op ng
of candidates', headquarters and the ad
dition of municipal, decorations. . Dem
ocrata who arrived early have put in most
of their time sightseeing. ud real cam
paign' activity has-been Jacking.
CONTESTS TO BE HEARD - - '
. The national committee will sit , Fri
day to hear contests, one from Georgia
and probably, one from' Missouri. The
League of Nations issue is involved la
both the Missouri and Georgia contests.
The national " commltteemanship of
Georgia s also - hangs on the: outcome of
that contest. Clark "Howell, the oldest
Democratic ' national .committeeman in
point of service, -j may lose : his place.
Senator Glass of Virginia is expected to
arrive during the week bearing the draft
of a platform said to meet the - presi
dent's views.:: y-.-.'i' ".
Glass is slated to head the resolutions
committee, A. Mitchell Palmer also is
coming to attend the meeting of the
national committee of which be is

demonstration on Sunday, and seven
other participants, were arrested by a
squad of policemen after an all-night
hunt for them by detectives and naval

the . chief agitators of the "Back te

to colonize in Liberia and other African
countries. A: number of negroes have
been sold certificates entitling - them to

Mrs. "Pote" Too

She Is Charming
"Pote K.endrick wouldn't let his

To the sweetest ' appeal the re
porter could' make over the tele

"Pote' Remained deaf. -:.
-"She Is busy- we are both busy,"
he declared. "Good bye," and the
clicking. of the receiver on the hook
came over' the wire. "
So the reporter - can't say that Mrs.
Pote is charming, that her eyes are blue,
or green, or gray, and how she Is gowned
and what she had for breakfast and
what she thinks of Portland and how it
feels to be the wife of the "Pote." For
the "Pote" kept her in j seclusion, nor
would he allow newspaper eyes to gaze
upon her or to put forth questions.

habits to have breakfast in their room
every .morning, and It is the only time
of the day they can be together. ' Mrs.
Kendrlck - also- has her mother with
her." ' . .
.. Mra McCandless is having a wonder
