CONVENTION POLITICS.

CONVENTION POLITICS.
As we see it, the recent State
convention hinged around two
propositions, the selection Of
delegates to the Democratic ma
tional convention, and the ques-
ton of allowing leeway for the
warehouse propaganda.
The majority was especially
interested in getting the dele
gates to the Democratic national
convention from among its mem
bers and in squelching the ware
house question. The minority
was especially concerned about
the warehouse propaganda, but
cared very little about the per-
sonnel of the representation IN
the national convention.
The warehouse question is of
practical Importance to the peo-
pie, and the matter of represen-
tation in the national contention
IS of concern only to leading pol,
iticiaus. It is of possible value
to them only in the event of the
reelection of Mr.. Wilson. when
it would have some bearing in
the distribution Of patronage.
To admit the warehouse prop
uganda into the primary meant
the education of the general bus
mess and producing classes in
their economic right rather than
in politics, and for this the ma,
jority element was not willing.
The proposition was squelIAed
without a record vote, the major
ity members Of the convention
being afraid to let the people of
the State! know how they stand
ION a question involving the
rights CT the masses. 1t was
I the desire of the majority to let
the warehouse question sleep,
this was not permitted. The mi
norlty made the majority ex-
press itself as a whole and the
majority did not dare go OF rec
ord as saying that the warehouse
system is not a good thing, how
ever much it would have pre-
ferred to do so.
From editorials in the Colum.
bia State it appears that the pa
per would have the people be-
lieve that the only issue between
the majority and the minority is
Bleaseism, but we do not think
the State really believes any
thing of the kind. Itcannot con
ceal from itself the fact the mi
nority made it clear that the is
sue is economic rather than fac
tional.
The majority in their conven-
ton the other day may be thor
oughly we'll satisfied with itself:
but We give it more credit than
that. It surely must have some
kind of a prenonitlon that, like
Canute of old. it is merely try
ing, by word of mouth to stay
the rising tide. The minority
representation in the convention
of 1912 was only IS votes, but in
the primary it developed that a
minority of the convention rep,
resented a majority of the voters

the convention of 1914 was neg
ligible, but this year it nu mber-

Quick application OF flrst-aid treatment
by Misses Margaret Bridges and Alice Riley,
student nurses at the Roosevelt Hospital,
saved Edward North, Franklin street above
Spring Garden street, from bleeding to
death last night at Seventh street and Fair
mount avenue.
North was unconscious on the pavement
with blood coming from deep stab wounds
in the face. neck and chest. Miss Bridges
and Miss Riley pushed their way through
the crowd that was collected about the
man. Tear ng strips of linen from their
skirts they bound the wounds and stopped
the flow of blood. Then they telephoned the
Roosevelt Hospital for an ambulance At
the hospital physicians said North would
have bled to death had not the young nurses
happened on the scene and stanched the
flow OF blood.
North was so weak today that he was un-
able to tell the police how he came by his
wounds. The police arrested Edward Nor
