and all other so-called progressive
measures. Gov. Harmon, having made
a tour Of the Pacific Coast during
which little or nothing filtered into the
Eastern newspapers of his utterances,
managed to secure considerable public
ity by a speech before the Ohio consti-
tutional convention, opposing the initi-
ative and referendum, although he was
elected upon platform which indorsed
the new system The line of denlarca-
ton between the two candidates is thus
sharply drawn.
With the exception of New York,
where Mayor Gaynor publicly voices
hostility to Woodrow Wilson, there has,
as yet, been no indication how the
larger States will stand in the matter
of the Democratic nomination. Much
work, however, is being done to create
public sentiment for the various aspir-
ants. The publicity bureaus are work.
ing overtime. Interviews with promi-
nent men declaring their individual pref
erences are scattered broadcast. Straw
votes are given serious consideration.
Headquarters are maintained in Chi
cago, New York, and Washington, and
the click of the typewriter is heard in
the land.
Even Champ Clark has emerged from
the receptive stage and is making a
bold bid for the nomination. The con-
troversy in Missouri having been set
tied in his favor, he has a nucleus for
his contest, and the outcome yesterday
in Oklahona indicates that he is an as
fpirant whose following is not to be de-
spised. He will be a formidable COM
petitor if Harmon or Wilson fails to
enter the convention with overwhelming
strength.
