what happened over at Baltimore!
cording to Tom Pen es way of think
ing. He was so tickled he could
hardly contain himself. But as soon
as the campaign started he got down
to earth and run the publicity end of
the campaign for the national COM
mittee and he liked the job every
minute His heart Is with President
Wilson and has been for many years.
So 1t can be seen the president will
not worry much about the publicity
bureau. 1t is enough for him to know
that Tom Pence is on the job.
Now that the president has these
various agencies of the party we'll
within his grasp, he has set himself
to plan to have them cooperate with
one another. He proposes among 9TH
er things that definite program for
the congressional campaign of next
year shall Immediately be worked out
These numerous activities of the
president, all tending In one direc-
tion-towards personal control of the
machinery of the democratic party,
have not been lost upon Speaker Clark
and Majority Leader Underwood, nor.
it might be said, upon the friends of
Secetary Bryan and Vice President
Marshall, for these four men are the
only ones mentioned in Washington
whenever discussion turns On that de-
cisive plank of the Baltimore con-
vention which reads as follows:
eve favor a single presidential
term, and to that end we urge the
adoption of and amendment to the
constitution making the president OF
the United States ineligible for re.
election, and we pledge the candidate
of this convention to this principle
The language of this plank is Mr.
Bryan's own. 1t is plain and simple
admitting of only one construction
and there is deep feeling among
many strong administration demo
Gratis, men who would like to see
Woodrow Wilson president for eigh,
years. that the president feels in
honor bound by the pledge contained
/ in that plank of the democratic plat
form not TO accept the nomination

the campaign spoke continually on
this plank. 1t might almost be said
that he harped on It, He himself
wrote it and he knew what it meant
one term for the candidate If he should
be elected, This habit Mr.. Bryan haS
before he became secretary of state
to refer to this one term plank of the
democratic platform was what caused
Washington politicians last week to
say that he had it on his mind at
Harrisburg, Pa, when in his speech
be said:
"A man who violates his party plat
form and betrays his party and the
people is criminal worse than the
man who embezzles money"
Every one in Washington knows
that Speaker Clark looks upon the
president as a usurper, feels that he
himself should be the one sitting in
the white house and by no means has
abandoned his hopes of the presidency
The many friends of Representative
Underwood are only awaiting the
worn lTOm MIN TO get back OF MS
candidacy again as they did last year,
but, of course, he will not say that
word until he sees how the bill which
bears his name shall act upon the
country. The vice president was
placed in nomination for the presi-
dency last Saturday night at the meet
ing of the Indiana society of Washing

brought out Mr.. Marshall's name in
this connection, he seemed to like it.

Quite a lot of discussion arose at
the committee meeting last night, re-

A letter has been received by
Hazen I. Sawyer, chairman of the

REV. MCMILLAN SAYS
EIGHT WAYS TO SAVE

ssThere are at least eight things men
toned in the new testament as saving
US said Rev Hugh Mcclellan IN his
sermon at the First Christian church re-
viral service Tuesday night. "The first
OF these Is grace. which simply means
the favor of God; the second is faith,
which is the power IN us by which we
lay hold of the divine; the third is re-
pentance. which in the language of Sam
Jones. means quitting ones meanness.
Among other things which Rev. Mr..
Mcclellan mentioned were confession,
obedience and calling upon the name of
the Lord. The sermon was aptly Illus
trated, and in every respect interesting
and pleasing.
The services viii be held tonight as
usual beginning at 7:45.
