A SUMMARY OF SITUATIONS

The Sherman boom is beginning to
grow in strength and importance The
senator's supporters were claiming 1926
votes on the first ballot His opponents
were conceding $50 votes. The only loud
opponents of the senator were the men
from the Pacific slope. They do not like
the attitude he took on the Chinese gues
ton. One of them in heated discussion
in the Grand Pacific rotunda last evening
sang out: We'll, nominate Sherman,
and the Chinese will all be organizing
Sherman clubs in San Francisco" The
Sherman men do not pay much attention
to this sort of talk, but keep right on
sa wing wood.
The Harrison men are hard workers.
They have received some heavy rein
forcements from Indiana, and their can
didate was kept prominently before the
public Some of them were predicting
