SENATOR MARTIN

FOR SEATING RYAN
Virginians Claim He, To-
gether With Flood, Put
Magnate In Convention.

BALTIMORE, June 2S.-This is the
way Thomas Fortune Ryan got into the
Democratic national convention as a
delegate from Virginia:
Ryan Is here as . delegate from the
Tenth district OF Virginia, represented
in the House of Representatives by
Flood. The latter is the machine leader
In the district and the directing force OF
the machine is Senator Martin.
The fight for delegates In the Tenth
district was between the machine and
the anti-machi forces, the latter LED
by Henry st. George Tucker. The ma
chine was for Clark The forces under
Tucker were fighting to elect progressive
delegates who would vote for Woodrow
Wilson. The machine won. The FLOOD
forces in the district convention claimed
a majority OF sixteen. The Tucker mer
admitted that the convention was
against them by a majority Of at least
six.
At this stage of the proceeding It was

possible for the Flood men 10 nominate
and elect two Clark delegates. Instead
OF doing this, they proposed, 70 tho
amazemcnt Of the rrogressives, that all
fighting in the convention should cease.
A conference Of the leaders on both
sides was held and the Flood men pro-
posed to Tucker and his followers that
they should name a delegate and that
the Flood men should name delegate,
and that the two selected, In this man
ner should be elected unanimously by
the entire convention. In this confer
ence the Flood men were careful to re-
frain from mentioning who their man
would be.
The proposition was accepted by tue
progressives. 1t gave them delegate
which otherwise they would have been
unable to get. and, in addition. II looked
as II "the organization" for the SAKE
Of harmony, was treating them Win

sides, SO that the understanding might

The convention was not even Informed

AN IMMENSE TERRITORY.

Speaking in the house of represen-
tatives recently in regard to Alaska,
Representative William A. Sulzer
gave some interesting statistics rela-
tive to that great territory
He said in part: alaska is mar
velous land 1t would make 47O
states the size of Rhode Island 1t
has the greatest gold and iron and
copper and lead and coal and tin
deposits in North America Alaska
has $780, square miles of territory
more than S3,645,44O acres of land
and the greatest fishing waters in
the world, teeming with the best food
fish on earth.
at is over twice the size of the
German empire, fourteen times the
size of the state of New York, and
has more copper known today than
Michigan and Arizona combined 1t
is one-ffth the size of the entire
United States. has paid for itself five
times over in money actually col
lected in Alaska and deposited in the
federal treasury. Alaska was pur-
chased from Russia for $7,2OO,OOO less
than two cents an acre, and has pro-
duced in gold and silver alone more
than twenty-nine times what it cost
the cheapest bargain in land in the
annals of time"

SERIOUSLY INJURED.
Warren CreeCh, Touched Live Wire
Fell TO the Ground.

Warren Creech of Forest Hill mar
rowly escaped being elcctrocuted Fri
day morning, but the shock he re-
ceived dazed him SO that he fell
striking his head upon fire hydrant
and fracturing his skull.
Mr. Creech was in the employ of
the Union Telephone Co. at the time
the accident occurred. He started to
climb a pole on the Union line at the
corner of Pine avenue and Superior
street AS he placed his hand upon
the first step he received the shock
and reeling for an instant fell to the
ground unconscious with a deep cash
in the back of his head. A drop wire
running down the pole and wound
around the step was the cause of the
accident The wire ran from the Bell
Telephone Co.'S pole. In some way
it became attached to the step of
the Unions pole AS the wires Of
both lines are on the same side of the
street at this point and also the wires
of the electric light plant, the drop
wire became crossed with a live wire
of the light company.
At the time of the accident, the
wires were carrying a LOO voltage.
Mr.. Creech was taken to Braincrd
hospital He is improving as rapidly
as could be hoped for and his recov-
cry is almost certain

THE FOURTH At ITHACA
Five Thousand People Spend the Day
In That City.

1t is estimated that over five thou
sand people from different parts of
the county and surrounding cities
and villages attended the celebration
of the Fourth at Ithaca last Thurs
day. The program was we'll planned
and put through in fine shape.
The auto parade attracted attention
and was a feature we'll worth seeing.
There were sixty autos in line decor
ated in all manner of forms. There
were autos decorated in ribbons,
others in flowers, while Japanese
parasols made others attractive.
There were two ball games between
the Ithaca team and the boys from
the Mt. Pleasant Indian school. Both
games were close and exciting. In
the morning, Ithaca nosed out ahead
of the Indians, winning by 4-2, while
in the afternoon they repeated with
a score of 6-4. One unexpected fea-
ture of both games was the presence
OF professional rooters from Alma
who were led in their noisemaking
exhibition by Charles Button of this
city.
