CLARK DELEGATES
IN NJ IssOU RI
Democratic State Convention
Indorses Speaker for
Nomination.
PRAISES HIS RECORD

Joplin, No. Feb. 3oS-The Democratic
State convention to-day elected eight
deiegates-at-large to the Baltimore con-
vention, each with half vote. The con-
vention unanimously adopted platform
pledging Champ Clark unanimous sup
port. The delegates are Senator William
Stone, United States Senator James A.
Reed, former Gov. A. NJ. Dockery. Lon
V. Stephens, Of st. Louis; former Gov.
David r. Francis, William 7. Kemper,
Kansas City banker. Gilbert S. Barbee,
Joplin. and Judge Virgil Rule, st. Louis.
Edward F. Goltra was elected national
committeeman by acclamation.
The platform characterizes the history
of the Republican party as tale OF
broken promises, violated faith, and be-
trayal Of trust" It holds IT responsible
for the existence OF the vast system Of
combinations which oppress the people.
Il points to the splendid leadership OF
Champ Clark, Ovarthrowing "Cannonism
and restoring the representative govern
ment of the popular branch Of Congress-
and lauds his tariff reform record and
his consistent advocacy Of Democratic
principles.
The platform also favors home rule for
cities and communities. and congratu-
Iates the people OF ireland on the fact
that the struggle for self-government
which they have so vainly maintained
for a century is about. TO reach tri-
umphal consummation.
The Champ Clark Melody.
The houn' dog song has been adopted
by the Champ Clark supporters as the
official song for his campaign for the
nomination for President. 1t was in
evitable.
The first Clark supporters to arrive
here for the State Democratic conven-
ton yesterday morning were humming
IL. By evening II was being sung all
over the town. At midnight wherever
two or three Clark boosters were gath
cred that was the noisy refrain Of the
Missouri classic:
Every time ! cone TO town
The boys start hcAn' my dAgE aroun';
Makes no difference he is a hOun'
They gotta quit hGkin' my daWg Hroun'.
To-day II was sung in the convention
at the mention OF the name OF the
Speaker. The song is a firmly fastened
to Missouri as now IL is to the Clark
boom. and the two will go hand IN hand
through the campaign. In the mean
time Missouri papers are Offering prizes
for the discovery OF the author.

WATTERSON CALLS
WILSON CROOKED"
Makes Bitter Attack on New Jersey
Candidate in Signed
Editorial.

Special to The Washington Herald
Louisville, KY, Feb. 2O-In a signed
editorial tomorrow. Henry Watterson
returns to the Harvey Wilson episode
and says that the public record Of Wood
row Wilson is crooked" After saying
that he saw aud heard Wilson grossly
misuse a loyal felIow-servs Mt and col
league in his services, Col watterson
continues:
Il discovered that though was faith
rully engaged advancing his cause he
Eas in secret correspondence with my
bitterest enemies In Kentucky. From
these personal and private matters / was
led to review his more recent public
record and came to the realization that
this was equally crooked. In a word,
beneath The veneering Of scholarly polish
lay the coiled serpent OF unscrupulous
lmbition.''
Col. Watterson explains that this is
the reason why he broke away from his
support of Wilson after having been
lured into the Wilson movement" Rel
stive TO the Ryan incident he says that
not being insensible to the necessity of
securing money for the campaign, the
name Of Thomas F. Ryan occurred TO
him, and he did not think IL improper
to ask for funds, even il none of the
mammoth fortunes will not bear too close
scrutiny" and he did not deem IL requi-
site to look a Gift horse in the mouth.
As 10 Gov. Wilson's attitude in the mat
.er Col. Watterson says:
Refused "DIrty Money"
Before speaking to Cow Wilson I
spoke to his managers about the Ryan
suggestion, and. like Roosevelt and Har-
riman, being practical men, they were
no wise shocked, but, on the contrary,
highly pleased. When l spoke to Gov.
Wilson he hesitated, thought the name
Of Ryan, IL II got out, would do more
harm than good, and declined TO accept
what he declared rather rudely to be
dirty money That, of course, settled
il. made no insistence. / did not even
resent mis- implied censure and discourtesy
10y representing that l never touched an
unClcan dollar in my life either coming
or going. along with the natural inquiry
since the Carnegie Pension would be
unequal TO his need, in case he finally
got it-where he expected to md cap
talist with winGs?"
StePIadder and AeropIane.
The editorial is throughout a bitter at
lack upon Wilson, one OF its paragraphs,
which says that Wilson sought fAme
through a stepladder and an aeroplane
being as follows:
Gov. Wilson's plan Of campaign has
been simplicity itself 1t embraced mere
" a stspladder and a flying machine.
His idea was to mount from literary 10
political preferment by the stspladder
and then kick the stepladder from be-
meath him; and, having thus reached a
point OF vantage, to send the antecedents
Of lifetime packing, in order that he
might outriEal the most radical in the
profession of radical principles and poll
cies, relying upon his flying machine to
carry him across the intervening space
between his dangerous elevation and the
prearranged place of safety

Clearing House for Job Seekers;
Plan to Help Boys Succeed in City.
By JOHN A. ROWLAND.

The lodging houses contain hundreds Of
down and out country boys Most of these
came to the city without any definite purpose
They were dissatisfied at home and looked
forward TO big things in the big city When
they got bers they had no profession and no
technical education They d1d not belong to
any union At common labor they would
have to compete with the Italians and others
who understood the work better and could
thrive at q lower wage. II they tried to be-
come delivery drivers or anything Of thar
sort they did not know the streets. Others
got Jobs Of an undesirable sort: places where
they were not put on their mettle, where
there was no chance Of advancement Thsy
earned Just enough to keep them going and
a. the Job held no promiss OF anything bet
ter. their minds were not taken up with II.
They dr1fted into idEs habits and became

any other reason the lodging houses get a
