comprising his defeat, but probably

unless 1t Is demonstrated In the mean
time that decided stand In opposition

This position Of the delegation was

Georgia came to Denver expecting to
find an anti-Bryan standard about
which they could gether with other op-
posing delegations. the uninstructed
delegation from New York having been
looked forward to as among the Op-
position factors. Finding New York
inactive, however, the delegation has
practically announced that 1t will not
be left alone In a wilderness"
The delegation enthusiastically in.
dorsed Clark Howell for the vice presi.
dency and determined to present his
name to the convention and to start
an active campaign In his behalf. Mr..
Howell also was named to succeed
himself on the national committee.
