BALTIMORE FOR
DEMOCRATS
viii Meet in Maryland City On
June Is. "Permissiye Pri-
mary Rule %

June Is. "Permissive Pri-
mary Rule"
Washington, Jan. 9,-The
!: Democratic national committee
completed its work here today
with the selection of Baltimore
as the convention city. June
RS was fixed as the date of the
gathering when candidates for
president and vice president will
be selected. The Republican
national convention is to be held
in Chicago June IS. The Dem
ocratic committee issued a per-
missive primary rule, and such
States as have laws on the sub
ject and desire to do so can Sc
lect their representatives in the
national convention by direct
vote.
Harmony marked today's sit
tinS Of the committee, which
was given over almost entirely
to arguments of representatives
Of the various cities bidding for
the convention. William Jen-
ming Bryan did not attend. He
had not finished his speech at
the Jackson day banquet until
we'll aster 3 o'clock this morn
ing.
There was brief controversy
over the proposed recognation:of
the Progressive League of Clubs,
all organization said to have
grown out of the independence
league movement, started by
William R. Hearst. When OBJ
jecIion was made. the question
Of recognition was deferred for
four years.
Norman E. Mack, national
chairman, was named to head
the subcommitte on arrange
ments for the convention. Vice
Chairman Hall of Nebraska and
Secretary Urey Woodson Of
Kentucky will be .ex-oficio
members of this subcommittee,
and there will be seven addi-
laional menlbeHs-.te~he named
later by Mr.. Mack.
The primary resolution adopt
ed was a modification of one
propose by Senator Chamberlin
of Oregon. It was framed by a
subcommittee headed by Clark
Howell, and was as follows:
That in the choice of dele
gates and altornates to the nat
ional Democratic convention Of
1912 the Democratic States or
territorial committees may, if
not otherwise directed by laws
of snch States or territories, pro-
vide for the direct election of
such delegates or olternates if in
the opinion of the respective
committees it is desirable and
possible to do so with proper and
sufficient safeguards. Where
such provision is not made by
the respective committees for
the choice of delegates and al
ternates, and where the State
lows do not provide specifically
the manner Of proceeding, then
the delegates and alternates to
the said national convention
shall be chosen in the manner
that governed the choi;:e of del
egates from the respective State
and territories during the last
national convention.
Baltimore led in the fight for
the convention from the very
first, but two ballots were re-
quired before St. Louis sue
cumbed. Then the vote was
made unanimous. The Balti-
more bid was accompanie by a
certified check for Sl0O, ,O0O. The
date Of the convention, June 25,
suggested by F. B. Lynch Of
Minnesota, was unanimously
accepted.
The first ballot on the conven-
ton gave Baltimore 25 votes and
St. Louis II.
On the second ballot, Ba}ti-
more had 20 votes, a majority.
and St. Louis %.

BOTHNER GETS
HARD DECISION

George Bothner, former lightweight
wrestling champion of the world, al
thought greatly outweighed by Jack
Coleman. of Harrison, managed to get
the decision last night at Miners EN-
pire Theatre, after being on the mat
for nine minutes and fifty seconds.
The hold that turned the tide of vic
tory in his favor was a scissors anu
armlock. From the start it was easily
seen that Bothner was the better
man of the two, and on two or three
different occasions he had Coleman's
shoulders all but touching the mat.
Coleman was always there with a
quick lurch when least expected, and
had Bothner working hard before he
finally landed the match.
Young Parker, a favorite son. was
beaten by George Kent, of Paterson,
after wrestling for eleven minutes
and thirty seconds with a body scis-
sors and half-Nelson. Both boys put
up a good match, their work being
clean and clever.
George Mehnert and Gus Bauers,
both of the National Turn Vereln,
refereed the first and second bout,
respectively.
