TWo-THIRDs RULE.
How 1t May Affect MT. 5ryan's For
 tunes at Denver.

From the Utica Observer.
 If John A. Johnson can enter the demo- cratic national convention supported by the states of Minnesota, New York, Iowa, Wisconsin, West Virginia, New Jersey, Connecticut and Rhode Island, and if Governor Douglas receives the united vote of Massachusetts and Maine. and George Gray Is given the votes of Della ware and Maryland, and Senator Daniel those of Virginia. 1t Is our sincere opinion that one or the other of them will event. ually be named for President by the Dem ger convention.
 We say this with full knowledge of the fact that MT. Bryan will probably have a majority of all the delegates on the first tallot-but then he will not have the re- euired two-things.
 If he lacks them and if a substantial discussion shows his points of weakness, we believe he cannot increase his vote, but that each subsequent ballot will show him weaker than he was at first, in other words, that he will suffer the same sort of defeat that befell Martin Van Buren in the democratic national convention in bdlllIIOIe III loft
 It will be recalled that Van Buren had a clear majority on the first ballot there, but the two-thirds rule-of which he him. self was the author-arose to plague him. That rule has remained in force ever since.
 In 1868 it was the avowed purpose of the friends of George H. Pendeton to abrogate 1t as soon as he had bare ma jority of the delegates in his favor-a crisis which fortunately did not arise.
 In 1876 MT. Tilden was charged by his enemies with a desire to abrogate the rule, but the Observer warmly supported it then, and it has occasion to know Mr. Tilden did, too. Forecasting the result of the St. Louis convention he asked, with a shrewd twinkle :n his eyes, How would 200 votes do on the first ballot?" If you have them you are the win ner on the second ballot" was the reply. MT. Tilden had on the first ballot 2O3 votes without trenching on the favorite sons of Ohio, Indiana, Pennsylvania, New Jersey or Delaware; and on the second ballot he was overwhelming nominated.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1908-03-26
Another Special Messaue

The much-heralded special message contains nothing startling. The Presi- dent asks Congress to pass a child labor bill, and employers liability law, new regulations concerning injunctions in labor cases, amendments of the in- tersfate commerce and antitrust laws, a measure to promote agreements be- tween employer and employe, more financial legislation. a postal savings bank law, and to prepare for revision of the tariff but to put wood pulp at once on the free list. and to appoint a permanent waterways commission. There is nothing surprising in all this. Some of the recommendations have campaign appearance. but nearly all have merit in them.
 The message is more surprising for what it does not contain. There is no mention of a bill calling for the pub llCltY u CdlupdlSn 1uAuo SOA- tence, line or word The subject no longer, it appears, interests the Presi- dent, and presumably not MT. Taft. Nor is there any mention of bill to keep subordinate federal judges from upsetting a rate policy of sovereign state. This subject, too, has passed out of the presidential mind, for there is no mention of it in the special mes- sage.
 It remains for the democrats in Con- gress to jog the President on these two interesting subjects. It is strange that he should have overlooked them at a time when both are becoming pressingly important. John Sharp Will Hams will assuredly call attention to these omissions.
