ADOPT PLATFORM AND
NOMINATE CANDIDATES
Convention Of Bull Moosers in
baltimore Last Night.
NATIONAL POLICIES ENDORSED.
Large Attendance and Harmonious
Proceedings, and Woman Suffrage
is Endorsed

In an unusually well-attended con.
vention, marked by harmony and un.
affected enthusiasm, the Bull Moosers
last night adopted a platform declar.
ing their fidelity to the principles OF
the party as enunciated last year al
Chicago and applying the spirit of
those principles to State issues.
While the conve ntion was in ses-
sion the newly elected State Central
Committee, acting under authority
conferred in the party platform. or
ganized and nominated George L.
Wellington, Col. Joseph X. Baldwin
aid William C. Smith to fill the va
caucies Oh the ticket for United
States Senator, Comptroller and
Clerk of the Court of Appeals, re.
spectively.
The committee had met in the
afternoon and considered the plat
form as drawn by committee head
ed by George R. Gather 1t turned
down an effort made by William f.
Cochran to back up the Anti-Saloon
League, and also heard from lawyers
regarding the plan to fill the vacan-
cies on the State ticket.
1t was stated that certain Repub-
licsns had intimated that if these va
cancies were filled those selected
would not he placed on the ballet.
This was pronounced baseless by MIR.
Gather and other lawyers.
Last nights convention was in
effect a ratification of the work of the
platform committee and the choice
of the leaders as TO candidates. The
latter evoked strong commendation,
the spirit of the convention seeming
ly being expressed by Mr.. Gather in
a short speech which preceded ad-
journment.
Mr.. Gather had referred to the
intellectual pigmies or giants on
the other side" who have spoken of
Charles J Bonaparte as 'Gener al
Bonaparte" and have suggested that
he was leading his forces to a Water
loo. "They should remember" said
Mr.. Gather, that we have now the
unifcation of Bonaparte and Yelling
ton and with that combination we
can conquer the world.
F. Snowden Hill, of Prince George
county, moved the appointment of a
committee on rules, resolutions and
permanent organization. Anne Arun-
del, Calvert, Caroline, Carroll,
Charles, Dorchester, Garrett, Mont
gomery, Queen Anne's, St. Mary s
and Worcester counties were not rep
resented on the committee.
Among the planks in the platform
adopted by the convention is that de-
claring for the submission of con-
stitutional amendment for woman
suffrage. A similar plank was in
corporated in the convention of Re-
publicans held last Thursday, but the
Democratic convention of September
I6 ignored the suffrage issue entirely.
