Bryan thwarted Champ Clark in 1912.

In 1925 when- the balloting Is on J . - -
A curious phase of the situation is
that, except MtAdoo, every presidential
possibility has headquarters (some of
them two or three), has managers, has
banners conspicuously , displayed, has
workers as . busy as bees, has all the
devices with which to boost a candidate.
But there Is no visible sign that there
is a McAdoo publicity. .There are. no
headquarters. Yon cannot find a place
to Inquire for Information as to 'his
strength or as to where his regiments
of delegates are to be found. At every
other headquarters ' they name - lists of
states certain to go for their candidate
oa the first , ballot and of others that
will follow. But on -the lips of the rank
and file delegates, the name most men
tioned Is McAdoo. His strength is a
spontaneous strength. - It is an unor
ganised mass. It is an unled mob that
may or may not finally take form and
supply the two thirds of the convention
necessary to . make the war financier

against him in the committee, s Mrs. W.

put him in nomination and instantly
nearly all the delegates jumped up- to
second it. Former Governor Samuel M.
Ralston,-Indiana, chairman of the com
mittee, called for a vote and Robinson
went over unanimously. ? The whole
proceeding appeared very smooth and
well oiled. - Robinson had been apprised
a few hours previously of the -fact that
he was to be chosen and had hurriedly
written his keynote speech, which was
distributed to the newspaper men to be
sent out In advance.

PLA3T TO. SATE TIME
This procedure will save time- in that
the nomination speeches can be gotten
Out, of -the way while , the - resolution
committee - is working on the platform.
At the Republican convention m Chi
cago, for instance, nominating- speeches
could' not begin until the. platform had
been adopted and consequently there
was much delay while the resolutions
committee report- was awaited. - -
An effort to go' ahead and nominate
the candidate at once without waiting
for the platform was defeated, -25. to 15.
Several delegates said they were afraid
that under such procedure-the candidate
would .attempt -to dictate the platform.
- There had been some talk of a. "gag
rule'' that would limit - debate from the
floor; so that -.W." J. Bryan and other
speakers would have to cut short their
remarks. -fi
DEBATE IS LiamTED "T '
' The rule adopted limits debate- from
the floor to 30 minutes for each speaker
on each topic and there was no objec
tlon-to it. K. " ;-i -:
Three New, Yorkers 'were at the com
mittee meeting ready ' to 'start .a" drive
against the- unit rule .as it applies to
their state. ' ' " , - - ,: ..
. They were former Mayor I Lunn of
Schenectady, Assistant Secretary of the
Navy Roosevelt and Justice Seabury.
Their contention is, that the unit rule
should not apply: to New Tork's dele
gation because the delegates 1 were
elected from congressional districts and
are uninstructed. - A number : of Indi
vidual delegates want to vote for Mc
Adoo and. the claim is that under: .the
unit rule they will be unable to do so,
as the Btate's whole ballot will go the
way -the majority of the delegation de
sires. Lunn, Roosevelt and. Seabury
were ready to proceed with arguments
immediately, but John Fitzgerald, for
mer congressman. New York's member
of the committee, objected on the ground
that - both sides were not ' represented.
The arguments will start at 9 :45 a. m.

This will mean the elimination of all
doubt concerning the willingness of can

and if McAdoo should express his ap

may be offered on the prohibition issue,
some of the delegates who have been in
clined toward Cox on this question
would shift toward McAdoo. -'
Once the .wet and dry plank is dis
posed of,: Newr York's delegates are-not
unnijely to swing to McAdoo, as : they
will want to be on the band wagon.
Bryan is represented as softening in his
opposition to McAdoo. but it all depends
on whether he approves or disapproves

Equal ; Distribution
Of Freight Oars Is
Under Discussion
Plans for an equitable distribution of
freight cars to the lumber mills of the
Willamette valley and Coast range ter
ritory are being outlined this afternoon
at a conference between officials of the
southern Pacific company and Wilr
lamette Valley Lumbermen's associa
tion in the office of the public service
commission at. the courthouse.
Because or the shortage of railroad
equipment, the mills have been receiv-
ws uniy aooui eu.per cent ot me nor
mal supply of cars for several months.
Distribution of cars to the mills on the
basis of capacity output was under
taken by officers of the lumbermen's
association some months sgo. .
Mills .running double shift aked for
an Increased car supply, and other' operators-put
on extra shifts to meet this
competition for cars. The result proved
unsatisfactory both to the mills and to
the railroad officials. Following to-day's-
conference the public service com
mission will endeavor to work out a
plan for. a fair distribution.
