President and Advisers
Give Their Attention
to Niagara Conference

President Wilson and his advisers to-
day gave their attention to reports OF the
opening of the Niagara conference, and
confidently awaited next developments in
the mediation proceedings which they
hoped would compose the differences be-
tween the United States and the Huerta
government and ultimately pave the way
to a settlement of the entire Mexican
problem. Reports of the American dele
gates-Justice Lamar and former Solicitor
General Lehmann-were received at the
White House over a private telegraph
wire direct from the missions headquar-
tiers on the American side of the border.
AS soon as the President reached the
executive offices after breakfast Secre-
tary Bryan fastened over from the Stat
Department. The special telegraph wire
connecting the White House with head
quarters of the American peace commits
sioners was working and several mes
cages are said to have oeen exchanged
between the President and Commission
ers Lamar and Lehman.
Things at the mediation conference
are progressing smoothly. Mr.. BRYAN
declared, as he left the executive ofhce
In great haste. The Secretary was
smiling az he rushed by the waiting
newspaper men across the street to his
Office.
When the President and Mr.. Bryan be.
gan their conference there were several
Communications from the American COM
missioners which had arrived overnight
relating to their night session with the
mediating ENJOYS. These messages. It
was reported. set forth outlines Of pro-
cedure suggested by the mediators, and
also some preliminary ideas upon which
NAV he based the first interchange OF
peace proposals
Further conferences during the day be-
tween the President and Secretary OF
State were expected.
May Yet Sacrifice Huerta.
Following Secretary Bryan's announce
ment: unofficial but reliable information
was reiterated that the Mexican COM
missioners' authority included the right
to effect Huerta's effacement as a condi-
ton Of final settlement.
President Wilson made no announce
ment Of the mediation developments. but,
in view Of the fact that the negotiations
In so far as the American interests are
concerned are being conducted ad refer
endum, the Washington government had
received complete information Of the pro-
ceedings up to date, and Secretary
Bryan's assurances were interpreted to
mean that nothing yet had arisen to
arouse apprehension.
Secretary Bryan was asked If any fric-
ton had arisen with regard to the ma
ture of the credentials given the Amer
lean commissioners He said there had
not Suggestion previously had been
made that Gen. Huerta's representatives
might cause delay in the proceedings by
making the point that the powers accord
ed to the American representatives were
not equal to their own.

Cooper is undoubtedly very strong
he is the second choice OF Manning,

the Record to the conclusion that lie

strength than Cooper and will poll
more votes than he will in the first
primary. In the second primary
Cooper would probably poll a large
vote, but as he is not as we'll known

Of Prof. John G. Clinkscales have put

making faces at Journals that do not
back the Wofford man, even at some
that, though not supporting him, are

Grand Drawing For Nominations

There will be a grand drawing at
the county clerks Office to determine
who shall be nominated for certain
offices for which there were tie votes
at the recent primary election. The
official canvas developed quite a num-
Der of these cases, several voters hav
ing written the anne of their neigh.
bors on their ballots and entered
them in the running-this having been
done in some cases as a joke. 1t was
sufficient. however, to place these cit
liens in the race for nomination when
their competitors received the same
number of votes.
In some of the townships several
persons received a total of n vote
each for the nomination for justice of
the peace, thirteen citizens in Fort
Benton township being complimented
by their friends in this manner. and
under the provisions of the direct
primary law the tie must be decided
by drawing lots under the supervision
of the county clerk-although other
games of chance are prohibited by the
anti-gambling law.
A similar situation developed in can
vassing the vote cast for precinct COM
mittee.men in several of the Chouteau
county precincts. There were very few
| official entries for committeeman hon
| ors, and scattering votes were cast in
a number of precincts in such a way
| that two or more residents of such pre-
| cincts were tied for the nomination.
1t will be necessary to resort to a
| drawing to decide these tie votes.
The county clerk has designated
September oath as the date of the
| drawing for committeeman nOmina,
tons, and September % as the date
for deciding the ties for nomination
for justice of the peace.
