parent that the plan TO have Represent
alive Palmer renominated Speaker Clark
would not be carried out.
Representative Henry, of Texas. Wilson
leader. seconded Governor Burke. IL
seemed at this time that Burke, favored by
the Bryan Wilson delegates, would be
chosen on the second or third ballot after
the "favorite sons" had been disposed Of.
1t also was apparent that the real fight
for the Vice Presidency was between Gov
ernor Burke and Governor Marshall of Ind
lana. The states seconding the nominations
of the two governors were about equally
divided.
When the District OF Columbia was
reached Roberto Mattingly proposed Wln-
lam J. Bryan as a Yice-Presldential candi-
date, saying:
Mr.. Chairman. many great Democrats
have been mentioned to this magnificent
convention, but the greatest of all has net
been named. We want victory with Will
son in November next. and whomever we
nominate | predict that victory will be ours.
But 10 make assurance doubly sure. let Us
nominate that great exponent Of Democ-
racy. William j. Bryan, Of Nebraska.
Bryan, sitting quietly in his seat in the
Nebraska section, was Immediately sur
rounded by group of supporters urging
him TO speak. For time he refused, SIT
ting unmoyed in the midst Of the storm of
disorder. But the uprcar increased. and
finally Bryan climbed on his chair.
Take the platform! Take the PLATFORM
shouted the delegates.
Surrounded by a small group, Bryan
made his way to the stage TO deliver his
valedictory, In which he seconded the nomi-
nations of both Governor Burke Of North
Dakota and Senator ChamberllI, Of Ore
gon.

No one heard the motion 70 adjourn or
the chairman's announcement that the

The motion was declared carried AT
