 Harmon in Ohio

Baltimore, May 6.--Maryland's IS votes in the national conventions will be cast for Theodore Roosevelt and Speaker Champ Clark unless the few election dis tricts still to be heard from change the result registered today at the states first presidential primaries. The result was close and Colonel Roosevelt on the face of the returns had but one more than the number of votes necessary to control the state convention
 The primaries divided the delegates to the state convention as follows: Republicans: Roosevelt 66 Taft, 63. Democrats: Clark. 72; Wilson. A; Har- mon, 4; in doubt 9. vention 65.
 State delegates elected are bound to choose a delegation to the national con vention favorable to the presidential can didates for whom the people today ex- pressed their preference.
 Clark Leads Steadily
 Speaker Clark led steadily from the time the first returns arrived from the Baltimore wards. Early in the evening it looked as if Colonel Roosevelt would win by an equally big majority. but shortly before midnight returns from the strong Taft counties put the Presi- dent suddenly ahead with es delegates to his opponents 61. It was Prince Georges county that decided Both sides claimed it's five votes until conclusive returns shortly after midnight placed 1t in the Roosevelt column.
 The following congressional nomina- .tions were made at todays primary elee-. tion.
 First--J. Harry covington, democrat re- nominated.
 Second-J. F. C. Talbot, democrat re- nominated; J. F. Murback, republican.
 Third-George Koenig dem arat. re- nominated; Albert NJ. sproesser, repun- lcan.
 Fourth-J. c. Lnthicum democrat re- nominated J. c. Boyd republican
 In the fifth district the democrats nom- mated Frank O. Smith and the republi- cans. Thomas Parran.
 D. J. Lewis, democrat, was renominated in the sixth district. Charles D. Wag gaman was nominated by the republicans
 A New Angle
 The Taft leaders claim that the five Taft delegates chosen in Baltimore city, although obliged by their instructions to vote for Roosevelt. may give the Taft sympathizers control of the state conyen- ton and enable them to elect delegates to the national convention who would be ready to abandon Roosevelt as soon as released from the obligation imposed by the law. Such situation might arise at the national convention, they say. if several ballots failed to result in a choice.

Underwood Favored

Jackson, Miss, May G. (Special.) )-- Primary elections will be held in every county in Mississippi tomorrow to ex- press the choice of the voters between Oscar w. Underwood, Land yoodrou Wilson for the presidential nomina- ton. It Is the prediction of shrewd politicians that Mir. Underwood will have little trouble in carrying the state and will get a good majority. al- though a light vote is expected.
 There Is good reason for this Under wood optimism. Senator-elect James K. Vardaman has come out squarely for the Alabamian time and again. It Is thought that Nardaman could swing the state for MT. Underwood even if the House leaders record did not-which it will. The men in power are backing MT. Underwood

Underwood Men Jubilant

Friends of Underwood are jubilant over the outlook for defeating instructions in the state convention and have hopes of capturing the Palmetto delegation.
 Aiken county adopted a resolution for an uninsructed delegation to the na- tional convention and also denounced the proposed recall of the judiciary. In the majority of the counties no instructions were adopted and it is believed from the returns that the state convention will defeat every attempt to instruct for Wilson.
 A resolution asking for presidential preferential primary was offered in the Anderson county convention and this matter may be heard of in the state con vention.

Neither Will Talk

oyster Bay. May 6.-Colonel Roosevelt heard of the returns from the Maryland primaries with unmistakable pleasure. He made no formal comment. He did not remain up for the late returns and had retired when the midnight press dis patches showed the fight was remark ably close.
 Cincinnati, May 6.-President Taft evi- denced keen interest in the returns from the Maryland primaries. but refused to make any comment.

 To Elect Delegates Also

From reports so far received it appears that the majority of the state convention will be against instructions of any kind.
 Newberry county, the home of the gov ernor, returned a delegation favorable to Underwood and the Riehland eonven- tion while instructing for Wilson, adopted a resolution condemning the unfair and unjust attacks being made on Under wood and other presidential candidates and pledging the delegation to support any democrat which the Baltimore con yention might nominate

Voters Back of Advocate

Governor Brewer, who was so popu- lar that he had no opposition, for the goVernorship, is an enthusiastic sup porter of MT. Underwood. The great majority of voters were with Mir. Var daman and Governor Brewer last sum mer and there is absolutely no reason to suppose they are different now.
 MT. Vardaman has circulated the in- formation that he Is for Underwood and has urged through the press and by circular letter that his friends turn out and assist in giving him the state delegation.
 one blast on Vardaman,s horn IS worth much and he has blown 1t sev- eral times recently.
 To lect Delegates
 Not only will the voters express their choice for the presidency but they will elect delegates to Baltimore as well. There are but four candidates for de'c- gate at large and all four will be elected This insures that Vardaman men must vote for two Wilson men, and that the i-Vardamanites must vote for two Underwood delegates. However, many who are opposed-- -to Vardaman personally are with him shoulder to shoulder in his fight to carry the state for Underwood and will vote with him and for him regardless of local prejudiees At the same time those who dislike Nardaman even enough to vote against Underwpod are confronted with the fact that they must vote for two Underwood delegates. Very few are in that state of mind, however.
 By a curious coincidence Lieutenant Governor Bilbo, who has heretofore been with vardaman is Wilson man, .G..- .-- IL in support of his candidate and wi,l vote for Vardaman and Brewer, the Un- wood delegates.
 The vote of the delegation will be de- termined by the action of the voters at the primary.

ployment of truant officers and the use

Mothers, who IL strongly opposed to
the arrest of children for minor delin-
quencies. The teachers will tell the
number of cases of truancy they have

talked to parents about what should be
done, and what they regard as the
probable reason for the delinquency of
pupils

running high and vigorous speeches are
likely to be made op the floor of the
hall, although perhaps not quite rival
ing in bitterness some of the literature
disseminated by either side throughout
the country. The progrewSiVcs, us anti
lynch men style themselves, are being
supported by publication of their own,
, called the Progressive, which is fighting
the Typographical Journal. The Typo
graphical Journal is the official publica-
ton of the International Typogra phical
Union, and, beirg controlled by the Ad-
II ministl alton, is fighting the progressive
movement
The latter's paper, in a recent issue,
remarks on this fact as follows:
IF the Klean Kampaign klub, -.
Louis organization, really wishes TO
suppress filthy literature in this cam
paign. THE Progressive would suggest
that the best way to do so would be
TO direct its attention to the Typo.
