DEMOCRATS OF TEXAS
They Meet at the Island City in
State Convention.
ONLY ONE CONTEST.
That VIII Re Over the Selection OF
state Executive Committeeman.
The Kansas City Platform
VIII Be Endorsed.

Galveston, July 15.-Delegates to
The state convention, which eonyenes
here today. began arriving in force
yesterday and last night. This was
particularly true of those who repre-
sent the counties in the northern por-
ton Of the state Some Of them came
on trains which had been greatly de-
layed, but all. regardless of the section
from which they came, speedily re-
paired to the fremont Hotel. and there
began what the cattlement would call
milling around" in the lobby. which
is characteristic of delegations to po-
litical conventions in this state.
There will ne no contest over the
nomination Of state officers for that
was settled by the primaries.
As to the platform. only a few state
planks will be added TO the one
adopted two years ago. The Kansas
City national platform win BE- adopted
without any change.
The real Issue is the selection of ?
state executive committeeman for the
next two years There are two can
didates for the honor-James b. Wells
Of Brownsville and Joseph E. Cock
rell OF Dallas Mr. Wells is the in
cumbent. Mr.. Cockreli is the execu-
tive committeeman who offered and
vigorously supported at the committee
meeting aeld ia Dallas In the spring
a resolution calling upon that body
TO carry out the instructions of the
last state convention. which was held
at Waco, In regard 10 uniform pri-
maries. Which will win is difficult
al this time TO predict
There are 1856 votes in the Demo
cratic convention Of Texas Well
posted men estimate that there will
be scarcely that many men in attend
ance on the gathering
But II the convention will be small
in numbers. it will at least be quite
representative. Nearly all OF the state
party leaders are here.
