convention with instructions TO vote
for Woodrow Wilson.
IL was agreed. however, that when

Impossible, the vote may be thrown
to another candidaet.
Victory came for the Wilson forces
only after followers of Champ Clark
and William j. Bryan had made an
attempt TO have the delegates either
instructed for Bryan or not instructed
at all. AS a result of the attempt to
stampede the convention for Bryan,
the hail was in an uproar for more
than an hour. During all that time,
however, the name OF Clark was not
mentioned, even by those who con-
tended for an uninstructed delegation.

when they, too. got busy to counter
