The conservatives wanted judge
Parker retained as permanent chair
man but the prOgressiyes forced the
election of Ollie James.

Dental nominations, was successful

cipIes.
1t is considered certain that the rec
OmmendatiOn of the rules committee
in regard to the consideration OF the
Platform after and not before the nOm-
inatiOn of candidates will be adopted
by the convention.

for Harmon be enforce.
The member who voted fayOring the
abrOgatiOn of this rule in Ohio will
present minority report and thus
insure fight on the convention floor
tonight.
The keynote of the speech of Ollie
James is expected to be strongly
progressive. Although instructed for
Champ Clark, he is one of Colonel
Bryan's closest friends.
Bryan repulsed the Murphy -Taggart-
Sullivan attempt to mOllify him and
refused the election as chairman of
the resolutions committee. He also
made it plain that unless an out and
out progressive platform is adopted
he will return minority report car
rying the fight to the floor of the con-
yention and even to the voters of the
country if forced to do so.
The credentials committee being un-
able to report, the convention ''Inark-
