EDITOR BOX FIRES
GIRLS WHO DANCED
THE TURKEY TROT"

PHILADELPHIA, May 29.-The Cur
tbs Publishing Company is without the
services of sixteen young women who
so far forgot the proprieties and rules
Of that corporation as to indulge in
the turkey trot" on the third floor of
the Ladies Home Journal building
The sixteen were discovered at the
noon hour engaged in this terpsicho-
rean speciality much to the disgust of
Edward Box, the editor who ordered
them fired
The young women regarded Mr. Box
action as not only an intrusion. since
they were enjoying their noon lunch
con at the time, but as an attack on
their personal privileges, and some of
them say they intend to ask Mr.. Curtis
TO reinstate them
In the meantime there will be no more
turkey trots' bunny hugs or "griz-
zly bears" at least while Mr. Box is in
the building.

vention In all respects the resolution

Anderson invited watson to the stage,

only about 100 occupants.

tire from the main floor which was
specifically set aside for delegates
Great confusion resulted and there was
no evident disposition on the part of
those seated in the choice sections to
move

with the Fifth district delegation on tn
left side of the house, while Thomas E.
Watson, in q clean colonel" suit was
on the right, with the McDuf1e delega-

lerics.

phalanx Of hands went up. Every man
on the floor claimed to be delegate.
He threatened to call the official roll, in
spite OF the time it would take. but
without avail.

Hutchens Is Made
Permanent Chairman.

Watson's name was put in nominal
ton for permanent cA~'rrnan, but he
was on his feet in mn ut shaking
his head disapprovingly He, in turn,
nominated G. Rufus Hutchens, the IN
derwood campaign manager at whom
he has directed short attacks recently.
Hutchens was chosen permanent chair
man by reclamation. Neyle Colquitt,
of Chatham, who was one of the score
taries of the Underwood campaign. was
made permanent secretary of the con-
vention
Chairman Hutchens then opened his
keynote" address, but there was evil
dent unrest in the crowd that wanted
action instead Of eloquence, and his ad-
dress had progressed but a short time
before there We're calls for him to sit
down. A heavy rain was falling by
this time and its beating on the roof
almost drowned the speakers voice.
Mr.. Hutchens' address was largely
euIogy of Oscar Underwood While he
spoke, Watson and Anderson, seated
side by side. conferred in an interested
and most amicable manner Mr..
Hutchens spoke only five minutes

Thomas e Watson was on his feet at
once. and was Immediately recognized.
He nominated John " Bennett. OF
Ware county He was seconded by
Ben NJ Blackburn, Of Fulton. Nomi
nations were closed and Mr.. Bennett
was elected by reclamation. This was
first blood for Watson.
Mr.. Watsons first appearance was
greeted neither with Kisses nor marked
applause His nomination OF Judge

been previously arranged

The report of the committee on
resolutions was adopted. 1t pro-
vided for four delegates from each
district and eight delegates from
the state-at large, with no alter
mates. The delegation was put un-
der the unit rule and must vote as
one at Baltimore. Each county
was to vote its choice for delegate
at-large in open convention, but
the district delegates were to be
chosen by the district organiza-
tons
Watson moved that the election Of
delegates at large be first taken up.
There was a sharp division on the vote,
the first of the session. The Watson
motion was ruled out of order, because
it provided for change in the order Of
business.
Watson lost on his second skrmish,
when he insisted that delegates at large
be elected first Randolph Anderson,
of Chatham, who led the phalanx Of
the anti Watson people, sprang to his
feet and said:
1t can make no difference what cleo
ton comes first"
It went to vote Watson lost by a
heavy nay ballot Announcement Of
the choice of district delegates was
then taken IN

THE FIRST FIGHT"

Tom Watson precipitated the
first big fight in the Georgia
Democratic state convention to-
day when he arose as champion
of the county unit system and
moved that the convention,
then and there, void all eau
cuses.
The motion was tabled by
big majority to spare.

derson accepted the amendment The
two men sat down together at the front
Of the stage, and Watson threw his arm
around Anderson's shoulder as they
conferred on the resolution.
BY this time it was recognized that
Anderson was the leader of the anti
Watson forces and the Watson men
centered their fire on him. The reso-
luton as amended by Watson was
