Platform Under His Pillow.

Mr.. Baker has taken extra precau-
lions to prevent the text of the planks
in his custody from reaching the pub
lie before submission to the committee.
So cautious was he that on his way
west he took the papers, from his
travelling bag and kept them under the
pillows in his berth " lille he slept.
Expressions of approval We're heard
today regarding the suggested plan
to win over members of The pro-
gressive party by making overtures to
them in the democratic platform. Sec
rotary Baker, in discussing this phase
of the political situation said the party
leaders hoped to get progressive sup
port by drawing q platform that
it Will meet with their approval.
Denunciation Of the use of the

Ganized workers is contained in a pro-
posed industrial plank submitted by
Frank +. Walsh, former chairman of
the federal industrial relations COM
msttee, to Senator Stone who will be
chairman of the resolutions committee

right of la Dor unions to organize

IN THE CONVENTION PROGRAM

President May Be Made by
Acclamation

ed this demand: I'VE want Roger c.
Sullivan for Vice President"
The supporters of the other candi-
dates for Vice President were not so
conspicuous, although an organization

The suffra gists hope to have the con-
vention adopt the plank proposed by
Secretary of the Navy Daniels. which
favosr a suffragist amendment to the
federal Constitution. The suffragists
consider their cause has been greatly
an ally. They will make a big drive
on the resolutions committee when IT

democratic convention Will go farther
than did the republican. Many speak

potential leaders in the party today,

Quashes His Own Boom.

Secretary Baker also effectually dis
posed of the vice presidential boom in
his own behalf, which had attained
prominence in the belief in some quar-
tiers that Mr. Marshall lacked genuine
administration support
The President IS for the nomination
of Vice President Marshall was the
emphatic statement of Secretary Baker.

not considered any other nominee. AS
to the movement started in my behalf,
am for MIR Marshall | am here as a
delegate from Ohio. ran in a popular
primary. pledged to support Mr.. Mar
shall. and obviously could not allow
myself to be considered"
1.-The Presidents own draft of the
platform-a single copy said to have been
typewriter by himself-wil be delivered
by Mr.. Baker to Senator Stone of Mis-
souri,, chairma be of the resolutions
committee. Little change in it is antici-
pated. Mr.. Baker said he came here as
the means of communication between the
committee, the convention and the Presi-
dent.
Views as to Platform.
Although Mr. Baker declined to disclose
The Presidents plat views. it was
learned the platform will dwell princi-
2ally ION peace, preparedness for peace
and prosperity"
Despite agitation by some democra tic
leaders, President Wilson, il is salt dis
approved insertion of plank criticsng
the nomination of a Supreme Court JUS
tice for President or favoring a constitu-
tional amendment prohibiting justices
from seeking other public federal offices.
The President desires adoption of a
platform progressive that it will
appeal to and attract members of the
progressive party. but without an
open. direct invitation to the pro-
gressives to swing their strength to
the democratic ticket, it was learned.

COP. EXPENSES
S2,43l,565 FOR
HUGHES DEFEAT

New York, Nov. 25-It cost the
@. O. P. $2.441.565 to lose the Presi-
dental election. according to the final
statement made yesterday by Cor
neulius N. Bliss, Jr., treasurer Of the
Republican National Committee. who
acknowledges there is a deficit of
v$21.143.86. 1t also appears there
was hurry call for cash in the clos
7 ing days Of the campaign.
Mr.. Bliss says 34,2O5 persons con-
tributed to the Organizations cam
paign fund and the total collected
was $2.420s421.19. Every cent of this
was passed on, and more, too, the
565.O5. just how much was spent
! in each state was not made known,
but will be ascertainable when the
Albany Monday.
Harry Payne Whitney still stands
las the contributor Of the largest sim
gle amount, $4,000. Among those
U who gave large sums in the last days
Of the campaign, whose names were
not on previous statements, were:
DanielfG. Reid, $4,000; e. T. Stotes-
bury. $4,000; Joseph e. Widener,
~s$15, 600; B. M. Duke, $4,000; F. M.
Babcock, $1,000; Arthur c. James.
$4,000; Robert Goelet, $4,000, and
Stuart Prosser, $4,000.
U The total mention is for the regu-
lar organization alone. Others col
lected and spent large sums. The
i Republican Campaign Publicity Com
nittee. formed in the last days of
L the fight. with George w. Perkins as
its head, spent about 100000. The
Hughes Alliance and other associa-
tians also had their own funds.
Vance c. Mccormick, chairman Of
the Democratic National Committee.
yesterday announced that the deficit
in the Democratic fund, would be
made up by contributions from each
OF the states.
- There was. a report yesterday that
. while generally spoken Of as amount
ing to about 100000 the Democratic
u deficit is more nearly 100000. This
4 was denied last night by Robert w.
Z Wooley, director of publicity for the
4 National Democratic Committee, and
\ by Wilbur w. Marsh. it's Treasurer.
4 Both said the report could be easily
4 explained by the fact that at the last
j moment before the election it had
4 been found necessary to spend about
4 $4,000 for newspaper advertising to
4 contradict assertions made by the Re-
u publicans in advertisements with
! which the country was flooded. This
4 $150,000, they said, is part Of the
Il $4,000 deficit.
Mr.. Wooley said Henry Ford had
s'done handsomely by the Democratic
I Party" and not only had spent a
!; small fortune in newspaper advertis-
Il Ing in thirteen states, as he had prom.
4 Used, but at the last minute had will
] ingly agreed to pay for advertisements
4 in two other states Mr.. Ford paid
! for all Of his advertisements person.
Y ally.
Popular subscriptions are all
right, said Mr.. Mccormick, "and the
Democrats expect to raise the needed
amount by this method, but it is slow
4 and 1t takes good many subscrip-
tons to make up the sum needed. I
4 have therefore decided to have each
\ State Committee handle the amount
#fof the deficit apportioned to that
Il state.''
Mr.. Mccormick will be in town for
4 considerable time closing up the
q affairs of the National Committee. af-
4 ter which, he said, the committee will
not maintain offices here.

He says that work on the road during the past season was pushed as rapidly as circumstances would permit Lack supplies, due to the longshoremen's strike in Seattle hampered the work considerably, but MT Nelson. with his usual energy. pushed the work with every possible speed with the result that more than eighteen miles of grade has been completed, two miles of steel laid and the smaller bridges and cul. verts finished
 A crew of men will be kept at work during the winter getting out ties for the entire road, a large number of which are already out, timbers for the l large bridges and for two 5000 ton coal bunkers, one at the mine and the other at Controller bay.
 MT. Nelson states that he expects to have the road completed early next season, and expects to have the road hauling ore to tidewater not later than the first of September, 1917.
 After a short stay in the states to arrange for the shipment of the ne- cessary supplies, Mir. Nelson expects to return to Katalla and rush the win ter work so that everything will be in readiness to commence actual con struction work at the earliest possible 1 moment in the spring

 The town consists of a group of pie turesque houses, a church or two and an ancient palace that clings to the edge of the Danube. What may be called the new city consists of acres upon acres of whitewashed barracks, holding in all when full 42,O00 soldiers.
 There were only some eight or ten thousand Italian soldiers interned in the "city" when the Associated Press correspondent arrived to pay the camp a visit. Two days earlier there had been 25.O0O. but the greater part of them had been sent out along the way - to permanent camps in eastern Austria and Hungary.

NICKEL LE DEE IN SPIRIT
 MOUNTAIN

Chris Tjoseyig, who recently came to CorIoya from the interior brings the report of the opening up of an en- ormous ledge in the Spirit mountain district which may mean the develop ment of a new mining industry in Alaska
 The property is owned by Andrew Halyorson, Charles Young and B. O. Peterson, and consists of a group of claims covering a wide vein carrying copper and uicket. the nickel predomi- hating. The ore is reported to carry about 10 per cent of the latter metal and the owners believe they have one of the most valuable properties in the territory. At the present time the me tai is in great demand in the manu- fracture of war munitions and com mands a ash price owing to the limi- ted output The principal source of the metal on the American continent is the mines at Sudbury, Ontario, com paratively little being produced in the United States.
 The owners of these claims have corresponded with the International Nickel Company regarding the prop, erty. and have received a request from that concern for samples of the ore which it is hoped will lead to the com, pany interesting itself in the new dis coyery.
 Messrs. Halyorson, Young and Pet erson intend to carry on development work on their claims during the win ter and expect to make a showing that will bring the property into promi hence. They have stripped the lead for twelve claim lengths, and will now commence driving a tunnel in on the ore
