Judge Burton S View.

Judge Burton said: -Four years ago
Judge Parker was Mr.. Bryan's personal
choice for chairman Of the committee on
platform and resolutions, This Is known
to every Democrat who attended the
Denver convention. Ir ne was progress
sive enough then to write the platform
on which Mr.. Bryan was TO stand. surely
he Is progressive enough now to preside
over convention which will nominate
a strong progressive for presid ent."
National Committeeman w. R. Wal
lace, who voted for Bryan, said: ITO
my mind the Utah delegates who voted
for Judge Parker erred In doing So
Their instructions were absolute In bind
ing them TO vote for a progressive cam
didate for president. This did not lit
j orally bind them to vote for a progress
sive temporary chairman. but 1t was GER
tainly my understanding that they would
do SO. I presume they voted for Parker
in the hope thereby to promote har-
mony, expect that on all subsequent
votes Utah will be found on the progress

Spectators Warned.

Chairman Parker warned the delegates
during future demonstrations against
climbing into the press sections. He
also warned the spectators against dis
order,
when the delegates take their seats
It's time for YOU TO sit down." he shouted
at the galleries.
Mayor Newton D, Baker OF Cleveland
opposing the unit rule declared he owed
nothing TO the state convention, that he
was elected as a district delegate in the
primary and accredited as delegate to
the national convention. He saw no
reason why he should be bound by a
resolution In the state convention. Ba-
ker asserted that the unit rule had out
lived Its usefulness and no longer was
needed.
Judge Ed Fl Moore of Ohio replied to
Baker He maintained that under the
Ohio primary scheme It was impossible
for the voters to instruct the delegates
and that the state convention was the
only authority having power to in
struct.
While Moore talked. the oratory be
gan to pail on the spectators and the
crowds I'm the galleries commenced TO
move toward the exits. The noise
drowned the voice Of the speaker. Finally
Chairman Parker appealed to the crowd
to wait until the speech was concluded
before leaving the hall.

Debate on Unit Rule.

Mr.. Covington then presented the ma
jority supplemental report of the rules
committee. making the unit rule rule Of
the convention. AS reported the rule
would make unit instruction by state
convention binding on a delegation If a
majority Of the delegates favored any
particular candidate Representative
Henry of Texas presented a minority
report. which would except from the op-
erations OF this rule such delegations as
are elected under state primary rules by
congressional districts.
After both reports had been presented
Chairman Covington opened the debate In
favor Of the majority report He argued
that as the two-thirds rule was true JEFF
fersonian doctrine, and as. without the
unit rule the two-thirds rule would not be
practicable. the convention should main
tain the unit rule despite the popular pri-
mary in congressional districts.
While Mr.. Covington was speaking the
thunderstorm which had been threaten
ing all evening broke. A heavy down
pour Of rain clambered noislly on the
roof Of the armory.

conclusion was greeted by scattered hp-
