Wilson Gains in the Voting. Clark
Still Holds His Admirers

The Democratic convention at
Baltimore adjourned Saturday night
until Monday morning. There was
bitter fight during the day and no
choice resulted Wilson'S chances
seemed to be more favorable as the
session closed and he and Clerk were
in the Lead of the other candidates.
1t was -aalized that it was impos-
~ihle to BRING forth a nomination and
the adjournment over til 1ISnday be
came necessary.
Since the recess both Bryan and
Champ Clerk have given the public
their version of the affair. Bryan II
insisting on the nomination of a pro-
ercssive candidate and one who is in
no way allied with the Wall street
interests Clark has defended his
title to the race by a manly state
ment and it is argued by Bryan that
Clark is progressive, but he wants
his nomination if it is to come from

money dictators.
In spite of the lay off over Sunday
and the chances for CauCuscS there
was practically little done this morn

ton the Bryan and anti-Bryan forces
came to another clash. Speeches
were made and each side denounced

but certain
BALTIMORE, July 1.-Therc is
little likelihood of the
selection OF a nominee this afternoon
Wilson during the day has made
steady inroads into the Clark forces.
Should New York break towards him
his nomination is assured. The
steeady balloting during the day is a
trying ordeal as it takes from IS to
45 minutes to call the states. Dur
ing the day there were many rumors

strength to a third man. could bal

Senator Massey

While this paper advocated the ap'
pointment OF Sam Platt for the po-
sition. mainly on account OF his
aggressive spirit. and the TACT that
he is a native Nevadan, a leader in
his party and his home is in this
city. vet there can be nothing said
detrimental of Judge Massey. Judge
Massey is one of the true Nevadans.
lie is an able lawyer. He made Ne
yada one OF the best Judges who
ever held position on the Supreme
Bench. His integrity is above all
question. lie is an aggressive mem
ber of his party. will fiji the position
with dignity and do what Senator
Massey believes is right when 1t
comes TO q vote. lie probably has
a. many friends in this city as any
resident. and his appointment VIII
meet the public favor. The Judge
will make campaign for the posi-
ton this fall and while he may be
opposed by other candidates from his
~, narty, he is one OF the best
elections that Governor Oddie could
have made. Congratulations Senator
Massey,

Comes over from Reno
with the Governor

The fact that Gcorgc Ningheld has
declined the Senatorship probably
caused as much talk aud comment
on the streets today as did the Demo
cratic convention His is the first in
stance where a citizen OF Nevada has
had the nerve to say NO to such a
fattering offer. Many have spent
fortunes 10 gain this togo. Many
would today have put up a fortune
TO have had this appointment given
them, but Wingheld declined it on
a silver platter. which had been en-
graved before hand and then pre-
sentcd TO him. 1t was great piece
OF nerve and he has risen many fold
in the estimation of the people. Flat
terry evidently did not turn the head
of the new millionaire.
1t was only last week that the
Governor and Others accompanied
Winghcld TO his summer home III the
tall timber They took occasion to
address him as Senator. Good
morning Senator" Fine fishing
Senator" Lets have another Sena-
tor" etc, but it availcd nothing. His
mind was made up to say no and it
went in that line.
While Wingfeld was opposed by
a number OF papers it was not on per-
sonal reasons. They in most in
stances, believed that il seemed like
pandering to wealth. Like inviting
Mr.. Wingfeld's coin into the Rcpub-
lican party ranks. 1t was confessed
that there were prominent men III
the party who while not "a rich as
Mr.. Wingfield. had more right to the
position and who were better
schoolcd in the art OF diplomacy and
law making. For this reason there
was a freedom OF speech that was
not complementary to the judgment
Of Governor Oddie and did not reflect
well on Mr.. Wingfcld.
Ry hi. declining he ha, placed
himself in one OF the strongest po-
si,ions Of any man in public life in
Nevada and has at the same time
made it possible for him, when the
time is ripe, to come into the poll
,ical game with recommendation
that many a politician would give
half his life to possess. Wingfeld
deserves more than passing notice
on his stand and decision 1t was
