Knocked Down
The Strenuous Age in Amer

Have Arrived
St. Paul, June 30. In the Republi
can state convention ithe Collins ad
herents control the organization, and
their doorkeeper barred the Dunn del
egates. Rough tactics wero used, and
mnny delegates wero knocked down.
Five thousand people outsldo of the
Metropolitan theatre clamored for ad
mission. A Dunn delegation, 113
strong, rushed to the door and gained
entrance. Quiet was restored, and
Senator Clapp requested tho delegates
not to break up tho furniture. At noon
a recess was itaken.
The first test of strength, as both el
ements agreed on the temporary or
ganization, camo on the adoption of
the committee on credentials' report.
At this point the ruling of Senator
Clapp will be of vital importance. If
he decides In favor of allowing the
contested delegates to vote, tho Col
lins and Dunn factions will bo almost
evenly divided, and tho balanco of
power will then be in tho hands of the
third candidate, ex-Congressman Frank
M. Eddy, of Glenwood, who has ap
proximately 50 delegates' Instructed
for him. It Is said by Eddy adherents
that should the Collins men bo unable
to secure the nomination of their can
didate, they will corao to Eddy. If
Chairman Clapp does not allow the
contested delegates to vote, then Dunn
has enough uncontested delegates to
control.thoconventionandlbyBoatIng

Oregon Delegation to
Swung to Latter for
Second Place
Be?
St. Louis, Juno 30. "Parker will ba
nominated on the second ballot in my
opinion,". said Former Senator Turner,.
of Washington this1 morning. "If it
wero not for Bryan's attitude toward;
Parker, ho would, bo nominated on
tho first ballot, I believe. Unquestion
ably Bryan Is going to oxorta great
deal of lnfluenco In tho convention,,
but the Democratic party Is not going;
to allow any ono man to run It, no
matter how much ho Is loved or ad
mired. Parker's refusal to submit to
interviews while ho occupied a judic
ial position has added to his strength.'"
Tho Washington delegation will bo for
Parker, without doubt. Hearst mon
ey prevented tho adoption of 'instruc
tions, but tho sentiment is strong la
Washington and other Pacific coast
states for Parker and a conservative?
platform."
A meeting of tho Washington and;
Oregon delegates will bo held tonight
and tomorrow to lay plans to lnfluonce
other delegations In tho direction of
Turner's availability for socondi
place.
