San Francisco, July 6. Governor James M. Cox, of
Ohio, was nominated at 1:40 o'clock this morning on the
forty-fourth ballot, the convention immediately after
ward adjourning until noon today.
Samuel Amidoni McAdoo leader, seeing the tide
sweeping toward Cox, moved that the rules be suspended,
and that the Ohio governor be declared the unanimous
choice of the party. Amid scenes of tumultuous joy,
with hundreds of delegates cheering and yelling, the
motion 'carried with a thunderous shout of "ayes."
The finish 'came after the convention had, been in
session, save for a brief dinner recess, since 10 o'clock
yesterday. The deadlock was broken after the thirty
eighth ballot, when Palmer withdrew, and released his
delegates. Cox received most of the votes freed by the
attorney general, and as the balloting progressed, he
gained steadily, while McAdoo's strength declined cor
respondingly. On the forty-third ballot, McAdoo's force3 began to
crumble, and the forty-fourth call was still in progress
when the end came. The count stood: Co,, 699';
McAdoo, 270. ' ;
Michigan had passed, and was caucusing, apparently
preparing to throw,h'er entire vote to Cox, and Colorado
was in the act of 'changing her vote and throwing it to
Cox, when Amidon appeared on the platform and put
his motion. .Pandemonium broke loose.
Delegates to the democratic national convention
assembled here this afternoon for what will probably
be their last session. The names of Secretary of Agri
culture Meredith and Assistant Secretary of the Navy
Roosevelt were heard most frequently as possibilities
for the honor of sharing the place on the ticket; with
Governor Cox. Many delegates starred for home, and
their places were taken by alternates.
Twelve o'clook came and went, with less than 1,000,
including spectators and delegates, in the building. In
the gallery and on the floor were rows on rows of
vacant seats

1920 Mentioned as Democrat-
ic presidential possibility.
Known by bis acquaintances as
"a regular fellow," James M. Cox,
three times governor of Ohio, nomi
nated today to carry the standard ot
the democratic party in to the nation
al election for president, has reached
his present position, at the age of
50 years, by a thorough-course in
the hard school of experience. His
early education he got In the public
schools. When quite young be start
ed to work as a printer's devil, then
taught school, became a newspaper
reporter, was private secretary to a
congressman, a congressman for two
terms, became editor and owner of
two Ohio daily newspapers, and, fi
nally, was elected governor. His
third term as governor will end in
1921.
Cox was born on a farm near Jack
sonburg, Ohio, a few miles from Day
ton. He spent his youth working on
the farm and attending school near
his home. As he grew older, he,
like other boys of the neighborhood,
went to seek his fortune. He ob
tained employment from time to time
on Dayton and Cincinnati newspa
pers, as printer's devil. Later he
became a reporter - and copy reader
on the Enquirer, Cincinnati.
In Politics Since lOOO.
In 1898, Cox bought the Daytcn
News. In 1903 he bought the
Springfield Press-Republic, forming
later the Springfield News. These
two papers now constitute the News
League of Ohio, of which Cox is
owner and editorial director. '
Cox represented the Third Ohio
district In congress from 1909 to
1913. In the latter year he begen
his first term as governor, his elec
tion as a democrat having been hailed
by republicans as an "accident." In
1915 he was defeated for reelection
by Frank B. Willis. In 1917, how
ever, Cox came back strong and won
the election over Willis. In 1919 he
was again elected for a two-year
term.
Cox had barely assumed the duties
of governor In 1913 when the great
floods of that spring Inundated Day
ton and the valleys of the Miami and
Scioto. The man who dominated the
situation following the floods was
Cox. He assumed complete charge,
declared martial luw, and in three
days, during which he never left his
office, started the - wheels ot relief
