gates have been elected and all the
preliminaries have been arranged.
While Senator Burrows of Michigan
has been agreed upon by the Nation
III committee as temporary chairman,
the selection of a permanent presiding
O fficer will rest with the convention
itself. There are several candidates
for the honor, but the choice of the
Pacific coast delegates is George A.
Knight, San Francisco's silver-tongucd
orator.
In the councils of the party hereto
tore, the coast has received scant re
cognition. but has always dutifnllv
and zealously supported the conven
tionss choice of candidate. This year,
however, a united effort will be made
to capture the craftsmanship of the
convention. Mr.. Knight is an orator
Of national reputation, a skilled par
humanitarian and a man of great ex-
cutive ability. If elected, he will
make a graceful and tactful presiding
officer, and a successful campaign man
ager.
