Dubois Makes Prediction.

Declaring that Speaker Champ Clark
will be nominated on the first ballot at
Baltimore, former Senator Fred T. Du-
bois, Clark's campaign manager who has
returned from extended trip west and
east. confidently predicts that the Speak
er will be elected. no matter who may be
nominated by the republicans. Mr. Du-
bots asserts that the sentiment of the
masses all through the west Is for Ciark's
nomination and election. The Clark man.
ager is entirely satisfied with the re-
suit in Minnesota.
I'm Minnesota. as elsewhere. every
delegate instructed for or pledged to the
New Jersey governor is friendly TO
Speaker Clark said Mr.. Dubois With
Wilson's nomination impossible, the VIII
son delegates all will turn to the Speak.
er. In Oregon. for instance, where the
delegates were instructed by preference
primary for Gov. Wilson, Speaker Clark
under the primary law. must be the sec
ond choice of the delegates.
Democrats all over the country are
for Clark" continued Mr.. Dubois. be
cause his long public record has not been
assailed and cannot be and that is the
reason he will be nominated on the first
ballot and that is why they are going to
elect him.

Small Vote Surprises Gaynor.

Mayor Gaynor of New York. who
is in Washington, urging new
post office for Manhattan. has given
an interview on the primary system
which is now in force in several states.
He said. in part:
Il am surprised at the. smallness or
the vote cast at these primaries. At the
democratic primaries the vote has been
only from to % per cent of the total
number eligible to vote On the republican
side the vote has been larger, but rang
ing from about - to 40 per cent,
think. What about those who are not
voting?
.'One would think that when the Presl-
dent of the United States and former
President go through a state drumming
up votes for primary that they would
induce every one to vote. Why Is IT that
so many have stayed at home? | very
much doubt that these primaries are rep
resentative of the sentiment of the coun-
try on either side

POLITICS DAY BY DAY

Texas, Gov. Woodrow Wilson yesterday
annexed lightweight delegates to the
Baltimore convention, and is now easily
in the lead in actual voting strength over
all the other candidates contesting for
the democratic presidential nomination.
Following closely upon his splendid
race in Ohio, where he made an almost
equal division with Gov. Harmon In the
election of the district delegates, the three
big results yesterday in New Jersey,
Minnesota and Texas have put Gov. Will
son to the front in democratic politics.
and 1t is the well-ngh universal opinion
in political, circles that his nomination at
Baltimore is certain to result. The over
whelming primary victory in New Jersey
in the face of desperate opposition.
backed by a bountiful supply of money,
was an accomplishment that gave re-
newed strength and vigor to the Wilson
candidacy, but coming as it did with an
overwhelming victory in Minnesota.
where there was the most aggressive
sort of opposition, set politicians to talk
ing, and most of this talk was to the eff
feet that IL would be impossible to pre-
vent the nomination of the New Jersey
governor at Baltimore
