HIT NOT OUT OF RACE
Friends Say He Is Still a Candidate

IFRoM THE TRIBUNE BUREAU.l

Washington, June S.-Friends of Representa-
tive Hit are vehemently denying rumor that
Mr.. Hit told the President yesterday that he
would withdraw from the Vce-Presdential race
in favor of Senator Fairbanks They declare
that neither Mr. Hit Speaker Cannon. as
has been reported, talked with the President
about the Vice-Presidency. and say that they
confined themselves TO assuring the Executive
that the nomination OF Deneen for Governor had
cleared the atmosphere in Illinois and had
proved the happiest possible solution of the
deadlock
Mr. Hits friends assert that he is in the Vice
Presidential to stay, that he has the Illi-
nois delegation behind him. and that he will
withdraw only II IL becomes manifest that he
cannot win.

ter contest for control OF the State organization
came up In the Democratic State Convention.
which met here to-day. The result of the first
struggle. that for the election of a temporary
chairman was a decisive victory for the admin

Governor was elected temporary chairman by a
vote of SIT to 322 over Judge Frank Peake. of
Shelby County The fight against the admin
istraton was led by Senator j. c. S. Blackburn,
assisted by Senator McCreary and Representa-
tive d. III. Smith.
When the convention opened State Chairman
Allie w. Young made lengthy speech, in which
he attacked the methods of the administration
workers. but dsclaimed any personal animosity
toward Governor Beckham- AT the close OF
Chairman Young's speech Congressman Ollie
James, for the administration man. placed Gov
ernor Beckham in nomination for temporary
chairman. Senator Blackburn nominated Judge
Peake. Senator Blackburn said that he had no
idea of making war on individuls. but asserted
that the Democratic party In Kentucky was
falling into the grasp of a machine and out of
the control Of the voters. He declared that he
and his associates would contest to the last the
effort OF the administration men to elect Lewis
McQuown chairman Of the State Central Com

Passing TO national affairs he spoke In favor
of uninstructed delegation to the national
convention His sentiments In this respect met
