The average price for delegates, ac-
cording to this report, was $400. Some
of them held out for $500, and it is
believed that at least one delegate who
demanded this price received the
maXuma-and then kept on voting for
Taft.
1t has been expected that at least
eight of the negro delegates would
join the Roosevelt insurgents, and it

COTTON SEED CRUSHERS MEET
IN FIRST ANNUAL CONVENTION

Jackson, June 25-The first annual
convention of the Mississippi Cotton
Seed Crushers Association was called
to order in representative hall at ten
o'clock this morning with about 1875
members present, representing the
sydicate and independent mills of the
state.
The association was formed in this
city several months ago for the pur-
pose of conducting a campaign of
education on cotton oil and its uses.

them that they got the money from
one of Terrible Teddy's agents and
then failed to deliver the goods. This
would naturally give rise to the suspr-
cion that they were bought back again
by the agents of the steam roller
crowd.
Certain it is, some of the delegates
who have returned home have been
flashing more real green currency than
they have been known to possess
since the last national convention.
One Mississippi delegate was seen
in the Western Union office at the
Coliseum building Saturday after
noon, just after Taft har been nomin-
ated, writing message to his home
folks telling them of the results. The
message cost him $1.35, and the coun-
ter clerk almost keeled OYER with
heart disease when the darkey calmly
flashed $50 bill in payment of the
tolls.

Baltimore, June 25.-Chairman
Mack presented the name of Alton B,
Parker for temporary chairman.
Bryan rose on the platform and was
greeted with tremendous cheering.
Bryan motioned for silence, but wave
after wave of tumultous cheering
swept the hall.
Quiet was finally secured and Bry'
an placed in nomination Senator Kern
of Indiana.
The delegates rose, cheered and
swung their hats.
IF any of you ask for my creden-
tials,' Bryan said, 81 can tell you that
in three campaigns | have been the
champion of the democratic party's
principles and in three campaigns
have received the votes of six and one
half million democrats" Tumultuous
cheering.
Friends of Wilson had united with
friends of Clark in favor Of candidate
for temporary chairman, continued
Bryan, and had been turned down by
the National Committee.
"Has any sought harmony more than
he?" Bryan asked.
"No!" from all over the hall.
"The song of victory should be sung
by one whose heart has been in the
fight" was one of Bryan's stirring
phrases.
1--WE are writing history, and the
country is waiting for whether this
convention will follow Chicago in lis
tening to the voices of predatory
wealth"
BRYAN said the country had not for
gotten the promise of campaign fund
from Wall Street eight years ago
"At the end of sixteen years of bat
tie l find the things have sought for

bu in the Republican party as we'll.
This sally brought thunderous ap.
plause. Bryan closed amid tumul-
tuous cheers, after speaking forty
minutes.
Senator Kern took the platform

an, exclaiming that jeers for the old
leader meant not Democratic homi.
eide but suicide. During Bryan's
speech he was interrupted frequently
with shouts for Parker
Kern said he wished to take no
action that would prejudice Indiana's
candidate for the presidency. "If
appeals for harmony do not avail"
exclaimed Kern, then the Democrats
must turn to the acknowleded leader
and that leader must be William j..
Bryan"
Amid great cheering Bryan mount
ed the platform again. Bryan said he
had appealed to one leader after an
other to accept in vain.
"And if no other progressive ap-
pears" said Bryan, 81 shall accept
the candidacy for temporary chairman
and let you express through me what
you have fought for 70 rsixteen years"
Kern presented the name of Bryan
after a challenge to the New York
delegation to agree upon another man
for harmony sake.
''If this is to be contest between
the people and the power l am not
fit to be its leader" said Kern. If
his challenge was ignored there was
only one man he declared fit to lead
the host of progress, Bryan.
Great disorder prevailed after Theo-
dore Bell of California, and Represen-
tative Fitzgerald, of New York, spoke
in favor of Parker.
Fitzgerald spoke amid the derislVe
yells from all quarters. A platoon of
police was marshalled into the hail
in an effort to quell the disorder. A
delegate vehemently protested against
gag rule"
Senator Luke Lea, of Tennessee,
said from the platform, 1--WE are not
going to have mob take charge"
Bryan made the point of order that
Chairman Mack had announced the
roll call during the disorder, but under
the rules each side should have an
to present its position.
Cone Johnson, of Texas, aroused a
tremendous outburst by the declara-
tion, "The fight is now on with Bryan
on one side and Wall Street on the
other.
The roll call began at 2:40.

John Sharp Had Time Getting In.


At ten o'clock the doors of the Fifth
Regiment Armory were unclosed for
the opening session of the Demo
cratic convention.
A heavy rain made the delegates
and spectators tardy in reaching the
hall and further delay was caused
by close scrutiny of tickets.
Senator Williams, of Mississippi
was among those who had difficulty in
passing the door-keepers. The iron
girded roof was hidden by false cell
ing of netting and the hall was gaily
decorated in white and gold and the
National colors.
States with presidential candidates
had positions of honor, Missouri being
on the right of the platform and New
Jersey on the left. Ohio was back of

Jersey, with Connecticut, Indiana and

No applause greeted the Connecticut
delegation bearing a Baldwin banner.
Evidence was given that the crowd
was prepared to give Bryan a demon
stration, but he slipped in through
the side door and was on the stage
several minutes before being observed.
Chairman Mack Joined officials on
stage shortly after noon. The arrival
of the California delegation with a
Clark banner, was greeted by scat
tered cheers.
When the band played Dixie a great

SELECTION OF PARKER
Question Goes to Floor Of the conven-
tIon and Outcome in Doubt--Enort1'
to Bring Peace Among opposlna
Leaders Failed of Results.
(By Associated Press.)

Baltimore, June 25-The first tlay
of the Democratic National Conventiou
opened with both Parker and Bryan
forces claiming victory in the fight
for the temporary chairmanship.
Despite the National Committee'n|
report favoring Judge Parker, Col
Bryan was determined to make the
opening fight on this issue.
In order to elect temporary chair.
man SAT votes will be necessary. The
Parker forces claim from $50 to zoo
delegates.
The Bryan supporters also claim q
majority.
Notwithstanding their assurances a
victory the Parker forces realize Bry-
ans personality and persuasive pow
ers as an orator must be reckone6
with.
They fear influence that he may
WELD on the conservative ranks and
realize some one must be pitted
against him. Who win attempt thfe
task has not been announced.
With seven candidates openly iu
assured none can more than hope for
the field for the nomination It seemx
assured none can more than hope for
the 72S votes necessary for two-third1
on the first ballot.
Mr.. Bryan has repeatedly declared
he is in no sense a candidate ana
that he seeks only progressive control
of the convention. Still many consid-
or him the strongest possibility for
nomination honors.
Even should he be defeated in the
fight against Judge Parker for tenn.
porary chairman, Bryan's supporters
contend he would have good oppor-
tunity to swerve the convention By
reporting for the Resolutions Com
mittee, the chairman of which many
concede he will be made and, immed-
lately after the Resolutions Com
mittee's report nominations for presl-
Dental candidate win follow.
