 Harding in the preliminary squab- bles was described as ''everybody's sec ond choice
 The finish of the fight on the floor was peculiar. Garfield announced that his name would not be presented Sim ultaneously Secretary of state Carmi Thompson withdrew without an an nounced reason. George B. Cox broke the news on the convention floor and the Brown men declared that they would win on the first ballet. But Brown, who was second on the first ballot with 413. dropped to 363 on the second ballot, and the LongwoTth vote was increased from 92 to 164. nearly all the progressives voting for Harding
 on the third ballot Longworth was advancing when Cox of the Hamilton delegation, surrendered. casting 91 votes for Harding. making his nomina- ton by 551 votes over his.nearest com petitor. Longworth. who did not want the nomination.
 During the balloting, while the nine ty-six Cuyahoga county delegates stood and yelled for the nomination of l Congressman Nick Longworth, Mrs. I.ongworth sitting in- the center of the gallery, frowned and shook her head at her husband on the platform. The progressive" tariff plank was voted down early this morning by the resolutions committee. Congressman Rowland. in charge of the 'progres- sive" fight. stated that his further | course as member of the committee would be determined after a confer ence with ex-Secretary of Interior Car field. The platform as finally evolved was practically a replica of the copy shown President Taft by Senator Dick and state Chairman Ellis The con servation plank. however, is that pre- sented by the Garfield men, and the | endorsement of the national 2dminis- | tration is a modification of the sug- gestions of both sides.
 | As a whole, it is claimed by the regulars" as their own platform in spirit and substance. The platform, which is expected to be a model for use by the republican state conven- tions as an expression of the party of President Taft's own state, opens with warm endorsement of the chief executive Senator Dick, who seeks reelection. was not singled out for any specific endorsement. Concerning the tariff, the platform says: The tariff has been revised in accordance with the republican doctrine of protection of home indus | try and American labor. It did not raise the duty on a single common food product Increases were on the Injuries and articles not of common use. No tariff bill has ever been more unjustIy assailed. It has turned national deficit into a surplus, at
 the same time reducing the average
 rate of all duties"
 | Among the accomplishments of President Taft's administration men, toned as worthy of praise are the
 prosecution and conviction of those l implicated in the sugar frauds, the
 prompt and successful intervention to
 prevent arbitrary increases in rail- road freight rates, effective enforce
 ment of the law against illegal deal | ing in stocks, indictment of those in- | voIved in the cotton pool. impartial
 enforcement of the antitrust laws
 reduction of s1.OOO,0OO per month in
 the postoffice department expense, re-
 markable progress in the construction
 of the Panama canal, withdrawal of
 over 71.0OO,00O acres of the public domain in order to preserve for pub- l lie benefit valuable coal and timber land and water power sites. Praise is given the railroad law.
