TEXAS DELEGATES
ARB FOR WILSON
Friends of New Jersey Governor
Claim Big Victory in Lone
Star State.

Gov. woodrow wilson's friends have
taken fresh hope as the result OF news
from Texas The best information that
could be obtained in Washington last
night from Texas Democratic leaders
here Is that Gov, Wilson swept the pre-
cinct conventions Saturday. His mana
ger In Texas wires that Gov Wilson
secured more than three times as many
delegates to the state convention as all
Of the opposition combined. Texas will
have forty votes In the Baltimore con-
vention. Gov. Wilson's managers said
last night that this puts him in the lead
with 1oS votes In sight. They concede
that Speaker Clark has 1s4.
Some OF the votes claimed for Gov.
Wilson are uninstructed. For example.
In Maine eight delegates are claimed for
the Governor. but none Of them are in
structed. The claim of eight delegates
is based on statements made by the two
Senators as to how the delegates will
vote In the convention. Thirty delegates
are claimed for Gov. Wilson for second
choice. OF these, twenty are from Kan
sas and ten from North Dakota. Both
States instructed for Gov. Wilson as
second choice. Eliminating second choice
delegates and the uninstructed delegates,
the Governor Of New Jersey has to his
credit 10 instructed delegates, II the un-
official reports that have come from
Texas are confirmed by the action OF the
State convention. Democratic politicians
here concede that as the situation stands
now Speaker Clark and Gov. Wilson are
running a neck-and-neck race. Up to this
time SIS delegates have been chosen.
II Gov Wilson has carried Texas,
which appears TO be reasonably certain.
the effect will undoubtedly be to enhance
his chances. He had very strong oppo-
sition in the State. The members of the
State delegation in the House were d.
vided in their allegiance. Senator Bailey
was outspoken in favor OF Gov. Harmon,
but particularly hostile to Gov. Wilson.
He used his personal influence In every
way possible to defeat Wilson. Senator
Culberson was favorable to Wilson. Rep
resentattve Robert L. Henry predicted
last night that Gov. Wilson would win on
the second or third ballot in the Balti-
more convention as the result of his
many second choice instructions In ILL.,
nois, Massachusetts. Florida, Georgia,
Kansas, Nebraska, and other States"

Asks for Recognition.
THE United States will be asked to rec
ognize the belligerent rights OF the pro-
visional government. While this ques-
tion is being considered by the govern
ment of the United States, the people OF
Mexico frankly ask the people Of the
United States to investigate the situa-
ton, and lend their sympathy to the side
that Is struggling for human liberty,
peace, good understanding with Ameri-
cans, and the right to live outside slaY-
