tinguished young actress, May Stewart.

Some insects digest their food first

built as to be able to take only liquid

IS FOR WILSON

Washington, D. c., Feb, 24.-Gov-
ernor Woodrow Wilson is not only the
overwhelming choice of Pennsylvania
democrats for the presidential nomina.
ton, but he will make that republi.
can stronghold debatable state If
nominated, in the opinion of Repre-
sentative A Mitchell Palmer. one of
the democratic leaders in congress
and the new leader of the Pennsyl.
vania democracy Pennsylvania will
have seventy-six delegates in the Bal.
timore convention, and Mr. Palmer re-
ports that so strong is Governor viii
son in the estimation of the democrats
of his state that only Wilson men
have offered themselves for election
as delegates in the presidential pri-
maries to be held in April.
Il think l am well within the mark
when say that the democrats of
Pennsylvania are for Woodrow Wilson
for president five to one as against
all other candidates, said Mr. Palmer.
Already candidates have announced
themselves for delegate to the nation
al convention in at least half of the
districts of Pennsylvania, and up to
the present time none of these has de-
Iclared a preference for any other than
Governor Wilson. Sixty-four of the
Pennsylvania delegates win be elected
by direct vote of the people at the
primaries on April thirteenth, and
twelve delegates at large will be elect
ed by the state convention, which, in
turn, is composed of delegates elected
by direct vote of the people. Unless
the situation should materially change
between now and the primaries, which
is unlikely, at least seventy of the sew.
enty-six delegates from Pennsylvania
will be committed to Governor VIII
sons nomination.
We in Pennsylvania believe not
only that Wilson can and should be
nominated but that he is the one can
didate who undoubtedly can be elected.
His great strength lies in the states
where we must gain recruits in order
to win the electoral votes. | have no
patience with the Bourbon democrats
who oppose Wilson'S nomination on
the ground that he has taken positions
upon party questions somewhat in ad-
vance of the old fashioned tenets of
the party and who object to him on
the ground that by reason Of this he
will secure large independent follow
ing.
He has applied the principles Of
the party to present day conditions. III
he has shown himself to have more
regard for the welfare and happiness
Of our children than for the political
dogma of our fathers, he is only keep
ing in close touch with the best
thought of the young and rising de-
mocracy of the nation who have their
eyes on the future rather than in the
past. ~
No state in the Union has larger
of men of independent
thought and action than Pennsylvania.
where DoIitical conditions in recent
years have been such as to make our
people disgusted with the old fashion
ed political methods. Wilson'S appeal
is to the people direct Hhe shoots
over the head of the political ma
chimes. Present political conditions in
Pennsylvania have put the people in
such a frame Of mind that Wilson's
nomination, ii my judgment. would
make Pennsylvania a debatabie state
