TEXAS DEMOCRATS TO HOLD
QUIET STATE CONVENTION

GALVESTON, Texas, Aug. S.-Be-
cause delegates favorable to Senator
Bailey and to o. B. Colquitt who won
the nomination for governor in the pri-
maries two weeks ago, largely pre-
dominate it, the Democratic state con-
vention, which opens here tomorrow,
promises to be a less stormy affair
than seemed probable several days ago.
1t is practically certain the Bailey
Colouitt program will be carried out,
although a fight against 1t in the shape
of protests by the anti-Bailey faction
is anticipated.
The platform doubtless will contain
a demand for submission to the voters
of a prohibition amendment to the con-
stitution in accordance with instruc-
tions given at the primary.

TAFT HAS CONFAB
WITH WOODRUFF
Compromise Plan for Primaries
in New York Will Defeat
Hughes Idea
Associated Press)

BEVERLY. Mass, Aug. S.-Timothy
L. Woodruff, Republican state chair
man of New York, talked politics with
President aft for more than two and
q half hours today.
Mr.. Woodruff is optimistic over the
outlook in New York state; declares
that a compromise will be reached on
the primary question, and significant
ly remarked before he left for nome
that circumstances might arise that
would cause him to be q candidate 10
succeed himself as state chairman.
Mr.. Woodruff who has had the job
for four years, says 1t is thankless, but
he may try it again.
COMPROMISE PLAN
The compromise which Mr.. Woodruff
said would be reached on the primary
question means a defeat of Governor
Hughes plan for direct nomination.
Mr.. Woodruff said the party leaders
in the state would not stand for the
elimination of the convention principle.
He said President Taft and Colonel
Roosevelt were in accord as to New
York politics and neither was disposed
to force his own views as to any man
or thing.
lust how far Colonel Roosevelt will
go in the coming campaign in fighting
for the primary system has not been
stated.
President Taft stated his position
anew today. He also believes in the
convention idea as to state tickets,
though he probably would approve of a
direct primary vote as to assembly
men, congressman and United States
senators.
President Taft and Mr.. Woodruff are
old friends. They were at Yale to-
gether. Mr.. Woodruff said today that
he talked to the president of many
things. 1t was too early, he said, to
speak with any degree of accuracy
about candidates or general condi-
tons.
THE OUTLOOK
"But I am willing to be quoted as
saying that the condition of the Demo-
cratic party in the state, to say the
least, is not inspiring" said Mr.. Wood
ruff
'oTo the Republicans" was sug-
gested.
.It is not inspiring to the Demo-
Gratis. and therefore inspiring to us Re-
publicans," said the chairman.
President Taft also had talk today
with Secretary of State Knox. The
president and secretary are using their
good offices to bring about an early
settlement of the boundary dispute be-
tween Ecuador and Peru.
According to present plans, the
president may remain in Beverly this
year until October Is. He will go to
St. Paul to speak at the National Con-
servation congress on September 3,
and from there will go to Washington
for a week. The cabinet will be called
to meet in Washington at the same
time.
From there the president will return
70 Reverly, to remain here until well
into October.
