MEDFOnn MATT, TRIBUNE.- flTOFOTm. OlTCflOK. "..MONDAY. JATXTCY T4.
REPORT BRYAN AND
WILSON TO OPPOSE
ino Nomination
.WASHINGTON, n. C. January 14
Evory four years Washinetnn in
dulges In the pastime of predicting
who win be candidates for the of
fice of chief executive' of -the - na
tion.. In the early part of the season
there was some speculation as to who
would be the standard bearer of the
republican party. 1 Today those skill
ed In political prognostications are,
in the main.-of the opinion that Cal
vin Coolidge will be nominated on the
fh-st ballot. The entry list of favor
ite sons for llrt) republican nomination
has been tar-less ' n number this
ycuiv than ever before, so ,the "Wiso
ones" in political 'prophesy have now
turned their attention to the chances
of this or that candidate for the dem
ocratic nomination. ' - - .
The predictions .run . about as fol
lows: McAdoo cannot get two-thirds
of the convention vote because, being
the son-in-law of Woodrow WJlson
the public would be of the opinion
that he would, Indirectly If not di
rectly, be for the League of Nations,
which, as all will remenVber,' was cast
into the discard in no uncertain terms.
Borne say that Wilson will not sup
port McAdoo and that Bryan holds
the same thought.
.Those, who fayor Ralston of In
diana are forced to combat the criti
cism that he is too old and that he
does not subscribe to the views of
the more radical wing of -his party. I
Underwood of Alabama, for whom
everyone has a good word,': Is not
thought to be entirely persona grata
with the Peerless: One; .besides, many
are of the opinion that the time has
not yet 'come when, ft candidate from
lthe south can win. Senator Copeland
of New York Is being groomed as a
dark horse, but the, leaders, are nof
certain they can handle him.
' Another dark horse is David F.
Houston of North Carolina, who Was
formerly secretary of agriculture and
Inter secretary of treasury , under
Wilson.; Robinson of Arkansas,
Democratic loader ip the seriate, has
a .quiet .'-little boom that ' Is being
nursed by his fricndB. Dill of Wash-1
Ington has beep spoken, of by some;,
but many voice the objection that he
is too young. John W. Davis of West
Virginia,- formerly 'Ambassador '-' to'
Oreat Britain and a candidate for the
Domocratlc ' nomination in 1920,' is'
nlp ninon'g the. probable . candidates.
Politicians here are . waiting ' with
great interest the , statement that,
"Jlmmie Cox,H', who.; -ran against
Harding In 1980, is expected to do-
liver within a short tnie. .The lately i
some warm suppnrtors, as well as has
Hrennan of Chicago. This Democratic
political Icador of Illinois' has not told
just what happened When Tom Tag
gert, Demoqratio boss ; of ' Indiana,
Charlie Murphy gf .Tamiiiany Halt ahd
he-.mat at French Lick Springs,, and
itjltf' not llkety he wlH give dut -any
stenographic repOrtofwliat occurred
at that time.. . "( , , . .
James Hamilton Lewis, .-. of pink
whisker fame,, is spoken of by some.
Word has been received here that Wil
liam Jennings Bryan, thrice a candi
date for the presidency, would not
object that is, 'very strenuously to
again being called to load the Demo
cratic hosts. Rumor also has it that
if William Jennings is not struck by
the politnl lightning at the demo
cratic convention, he will see it. he
cannot put over brother Charlie, who
is now governor of Nebraska. There
are many in Washington who'bellevo
Woodrow Wilson will play an Import
ant part in the democratic conven
tion. At present he Is "sitting tight
and sawing wood." Those who enjoy
his confidence say that he is-watching
every move thnt is made; on the
political chess board.- :. . 1 ' -
- All these' prophecies and predictions
are met with smiling countenances
by the republicans, who quote Henry
Kurd by saying: )'Why, Change7l .

HOPES TO BAT OUT
El
SUDBURY. Mass., Jan. 14. (By
the Associated Press) Babe Ruth,
who-bats out home runs In the sum-l
mer 'months, plays gentlcmun farmer
on his Sudbury estate all winter, but
not becauso, ho, likes ttl . Ruth, busy,
at building a henhouse one mild Jan-
UtWJ. M , 1? .... ...... V L. Ulsiv,ID .-- ' T
enough to say that farming with htm
Is Just an Incident in the serious busi-l
ness of baseball. The.-axe, hammer
and saw and snow shovel which .are;
Ruth's winter-time toys, aro no moru'
than instruments of training for tho
mighty bat that is expected to propel
home runs In mid-July. '
"That's the Idoa," said Babe, "a
guy's got to keep right at it."
lmpellerY by an ambition and a
dread, Ruth performs much hard
work on his farm of 140 acres. Tho
ambition Is to outstrip all past records
In long distance batting in the 1924
season. The dread is that winter may
put on the Babe's great frame many
pounds of wcighti which ho will bo
compelled to truln' away In the early
season.
Ruth said ho had too much re
ducing to do last siiring, that tho
process sapped his strength and that
he lost time at the oponlng of tho
season which told on his- 1923 por
formnnce. . Nothing of thnt kind is
to occur this year, tho Babe says, and
ho claims that he has added little, if
any, to his poundage of tho 1923
world series. : He made ono trip to
New York this winter. It was to ask
and receive permission from Colonel
Ruppert, owner of the Yankees, to go
to Hot Springs, Ark., early In Febru
ary for the "boiling out" process.'
BATTLE WITH TAYLOR

ley B. Butler, Philadelphia's new dU
rector of public safety, for tho elimin
ation of Vice, had a marked effect on
the week-end oi crime .of all aorta.

AS LEGION ADJUTANT
NEW YORK, Jan. 14, An autopsy
has been ordered to detcrmlno wheth
er, the death last night of Frankie
Jerome, bantamweight boxer, "was due
to a blow, roceived during a bout with
Bud Taylor of Torre Haute, Ind., on
Friday last at MadlBon Squarb Oar
den. If this proves to' be the case,
official state action will be taken im
mediately against Tdylo'r. Death fol
lowed an operation which failed to
relieve a cerebral- hemorrhage.
I Jerome, whose real name '' was
Frank Daugherty, Is the third New
York boxer to die from Injuries re
ceived in the ring since the Walker
law .legalized the sport In 1920, If he
actually succumbed as a result of
Taylor's blows. Tho first was Frankie
Pitcher, who died In 1923 and the
second Andy Thomas who succumbed
early last year. Neither was as well
known as Jerome, who was a-contender
for, the world's tltlo held, by Jo
Lynch. ' '
Threats of legislative action against
the sport have been heard since wide
discussion began a month ago of poor
decisions. An investigation of Jor
o'me'a condition pcforo the fight is
expected, particularly as he had been
fighting often and it was apparent
When his bo (it with Taylor began that
he was not in his usual strength. Tex
Hickard, who promoted the fight, said
Jerome was In good condition when
ho entered tho .ring. ,

my attention was called by one of the

referring to our delightful climate
that we have ordinarily I made men
tion of the difference between the
climate here and In other parts of the
country and referred to our very tem
perate zone and aimed to say that the
coldest weather we had here so far
this winter was nine above zero but
the printer made me say that the
coldest time we had this winter was
nine degrees below zero, making our
Italy about as frigid as it is in Chi
