DELEGATES INSTRUCTED
FOR WILSON HALF OF TOTAL
NAMED IN STATE THUS FAR
Jersey Man Has Many Friends
In Uninstructed List and
Seems Sure Winner
NO trump" CONVENTIONS
Believed There Will Not Be
Single Contest For State
Gathering To Decide

The Democratic presidential score
, In Michigan was tied as the result OF
Wednesdays conventions in Wayne
and Hillsdale counties. With almost
half the 1924 delegates already elect
ed. BIG have been instructed for
Woodrow Wilson, and the same num-
Der elected without instructions to
the Democratic state convention TO be
held IN Bay City. May Is.
But the Wilson men claim the ad-
vantage up-to-date by reason or re-
ports they have received that there
are many Wilson votes among the un-
instructed delegates from other coun-
ties than Wayne. They point to the
fact that while the Livingstone coun-
~ convention did not instruct It's
delegates, IL Endorsed Wilson's candi-
dacy. And In Manistee county,
where the convention did not instruct,
Stacy G. Thompson, Wilson leader,
was Endorsed for delegate-atlarge.
The counties that have instructed
for Wilson are: Alpena, 5 delegates;
Emmett, g.; Hillsdale, 16; lngham,
46: Ionia, 90; Kent, 6S; Lenawee, 33;
Macomb. 2S: Oakland, 81; Sanilac, 10,
and Washtenaw, Al The uninstructed
delegations are from Huron, 10 dele
gates: Genesee, 81: Livingston, %;
Manistee, 10; Monroe, 20, and Wayne,
PA.
The local Wilson leaders are in
clined to think that more Wilson men
we're included in the Wayne county
delegation to Bay City than was gen.
orally realized when the list was
read in Wednesdays county conven-
ton.
Il should Judge that possibly one
third OF the delegates TO the Bay City
convention are Wilson men, said T..
]. Anketell, Thursday II am con-
vinced that more than half of them
are Wilson men at heart. Up-to-date
the Clark-Harmon combination has
not received single instructed dele
cation from any county in the state.
s. w. Beakes, state secretary OF the
Woodrow Wilson Democratic league,
has called attention to the fact that
the campaign thus far has produced
no trump" conventions. He predicted
that for the first time in years the
Democratic state convention would
have no contests to decide.
1T will be case of harmony with

ferring to the candidacy of Gov. Har-
