ceived tho resignation of Henry P,
Cochoms as a dclugate. Several
othor delegates threatened similar
action. It was rumored that McGov.
em liinisolf might withdraw. His
frlontls refused verification of that
rumor, however, and ho would not
talk prior to tho assembling of the
convention.
Cochoms, who nominated LaKol
tto for president four years ago,
todny camo out with a second bitter
attack upon tho Wisconsin progres
slve, explaining his action in nominat
ing McGovern for temporary chair
man, and his resignaton.
Cochein's Statement.
"Lal'ollctto himself and his men
aro out to lick Roosevelt, that's all,"
said Cochoms. "They nro utterly
disregarding tho progressiva princi
ples, tho candidate of tho people
Theodore Roosevelt, Just as LaFol
letto Is, conducting a campaign of
vengeance.
"I got sick of tho wholo dirty mess
ami simply quit to save my own self
respect. 1 foil I would stultify my
self to keep a scat on iho delegation
when Instructed for LaFollotto and
do not wish to ho accused of dosor-

"Tho proposition of Governor
Hudloy and tho Roosevelt crowd is
utterly absurd too wild-eyed for
