PEN IN the twenty-five districts.
The Clark men, who are doing more

men or just plain "old guard men, say
they will carry fifteen districts. that they
win control the city convention May %.
and that they will send their six Clark
votes to Baltimore. and also that they
Will elect q national committeeman.
However. there Is no haste on either side
in the matter Of selecting national COM
mitteeman.
Walter ]. Costello and J. Fred Kelley
are the leaders on the opposite sides OF
the struggle. Col" Kelley will make no
promises. He has q controlling element
in some respects, as he presides over the
councils of the central committee. and
will have considerable to say about the
validity of the various tickets which will
have to be filed with him before midnight
OF Monday next. Repeated efforts to get
him to break his silence and declare
somebody will win have been OF alb
solutely no avail. In that respect he Is
vastly different from the Clark demo-
Gratis. They won't recognize any other
possibility than their own candidates.

Such Proof as This Should Convince

The public endorsement of local

forward and testifes to his fellow
citizens, addresses his friends and
nelghbors, you may be sure he is
thoroughly convinced or he would
not do so. Telling ones experience
when it is for the public good is an
act OF kindness that should be ap-
preciated. The following statement
