THAT is true" said Mr.. Underwood,
but If l got the nomination and accept
ed some people would say l had made a
deal for 1t. l have made no deal and
have traded with no man."
Mr.. Underwood has been keenly atten-
tive to the proceedings at Baltimore. but
not once has he displayed any anxiety. He
based his hope on a compromise.
Il am glad that this is over for one
thing he said. Mrs. Underwood will
have little more peace of mind now"
Among the first to greet the defeated
candidate after the nomination of Gov
emo Wilson became known was Represen-
tative Longworth.
Congratulations Oscar" he said. You
made game fight and we are proud OF
you
Senator Tillmans of South Carolina to-

Taft Nom CommittaI

President Taft heard the news of Gov
ernor Wilson's nomination while at lunch
con in the White House. The President
declined TO comment.
Friends of Mr.. Taft, however, said to-
night that they could find grain of COM
fort in the selection of the Baltimore con-
vention. Expecting Colonel Roosevelt to
continue his plan for a third party, they
count upon the progressive element split
ting between Roosevelt and Wilson,
1t is well known in Washington that the
President and his friends feared the nom-
nation of Governor Harmon or Oscar Tn
derwood far more than they did that of
Governor Wilson.

Withdraws Name

Now, my friends, one more word and
I will conclude. Mr.. Underwood directs
ME as the humble instrument by which
his campaign has been conducted to
withdraw his name from before this
convention. (Applause.) He directs me
further to thank most sincerely those
devoted friends who have stood by him
so Loyalty through the tedious hours
of this convention. They can never be
blotted from his memory. He further
directs me TO say to the members of
this convention that no feeling of re-
sentiment or animosity exists in his heart
toward any member of 1t.
II withdraw his name from before
the convention and he authorizes me
to release from their obligations all
the friends that have been elected for
and instructed to vote for him, which
they have so Loyalty done as long as
his name is before the convention. His
friends are at liberty to vote for whom
they please" (Applause.)

10000 HOLLY WREATHS
SOLD BY ONE FARMER

MILFORD, Del, Dec - 9-What is
probably the largest number Of holly
wreaths ever brought to market by
one man in the State was brought
here last week by a farmer from the
bayshore district, he bringing in 10000
wreaths of the finest quality. These
were all bought by a local broker, who
paid the farmer nine cents each for
them, or a total of $500 for the lot
The rush of the holly business is eX-
pectod the latter part of next week.
As a result the box factories have
stopped the manufacture of berry
crates and peach baskets and are de-
voting all their time to the manufac-
ture Of holly boxes exclusively. 1t
is known that the farmers in the vicin-
ity of this town will receive many
thousand dollars for holly and wreaths
this season.
