At the Presbyterian Sunday
school last Sunday, the attention
of our Man-About-Town was
attracted when Judge w. S. Nc
Glashen carefully counted out Is
cents and deposited it in the
collection plate. after which he
in a few well-chosen remarks
thanked God that he had been
permitted to round out his 18th
year. 1t was an affecting scene
and upon many an eye a tear was
seen to trickle down the cheek,
as the Judge has become vener-
able with age and hard jolts in
the school Of experience.

TO BE WILSON'S AGENT

Time for Convention.

Washington, June s.-President WILL
son has decided 20 select a man for
chairman of the Democratic National
Committee before the convention meets
at St. Louis, and send him 70 tho Con-
vention as his personal representative.
The list under consideration has been

"ALFALFA BILL" FLAYS
CANDIDACY OF HUGHES
Oklahoma Democrat Tells House
Supreme Bench Is Menaced.

Washington, June S.-The candidacy
Of Justice Hughes was denounced In
the House Of Representatives to-day by
alfalfa Bill" Murray, Democrat, OF
Oklahoma. The precedent set by
Hughes, he declared, was bound to
bring the Supreme Court into disre-
pute and make II a training ground for
political candidates"
Murray's storm Of denunciation took
the thrty-odd members present by sur
prise. Neither Democrats nor Repub-
leans realized that the Oklahoman had
struck the keynote of Democratic OPP
position to Hughes until il was all over
Murray said that Mr.. Hughes's
Cathedral School address had made him
an open and avowed candidate and that
he should disavow all ambition for the
Presidency or resign from the bench.
His remaining on the bench and
flirting with his supporters like a girl
wanting to be kissed" said Murray, us
reprehensible."
Republican members RETAINED from
replying.

WOMEN PEOPLE,
6. DECIDES
And Suffragists Rejoice
as Convention Declares
in Their Favor.
By ALICE DUER MILLER.
IRx rrI,rrrnh 70 The Tribune

Chicago. June s.-Women ARE peo-
pie. at least in the opinion Of the Re
publican party. In spite Of rumors
to the contrary, the convention clearly
and definitely declared them so this
afternoon by an almost unanimous
vote; not by the stingy majority Of one
by which a church council once asserted
that women had souls.
The plank indorsing woman suffrage
on the ground of Republican belief in
government of the people by the people
and for the people was adopted with
great applause. The applause inter
ruted Senator Lodges faultless diction
before he could conclude his paragraph,
which contained a clause emphasizing
"the right OF the states to decide the
question themselves" Applause for
this sentence was less marked.
Suffragists as a whole are rejoicing
at the plank, which, il 1t means any
thing. commits the party to assist in
state campaigns. The Congressional
Union, which opposes all suffrage work
except work for the national amend
ment, considers the plank unsatisfac-
tory. But, as one woman said, only
pretty lively question could force
the Republican party into a frank
declaration in favor Of states rights"
The platform had earlier declared for
Federal child labor bill and had, in
speaking of treaty with Russia, ex-
pressed its belief in equal rights, civil
and religious, for every man"
There Is no doubt that 1t has been a
great education TO Eastern delegates
not only TO come into contact with dele
gates, men and women, from suffrage
states, but TO hold the convention in a
city where women already vote and are
considered accordingly.

Moose Leaders Gain Another
Day for Harmony Conferences

Henry J. Allen voiced the feeling Of

Moose VIII Go Half Way.
Every leader who was known TO
favor prompt and radical action with
out waiting to see what the Republi-
cans did was greeted by wild yells and
roars of approval, while every motion
calculated to hurry along the hour
when they could name r. R. was also
most enthusiastically cheered. 1t may
be that they can be at last persuaded
TO indorse Hughes, but IL is clear that
any attempt on the part Of the Re
publicans to put over any stand-pat or
"pussyfOot" candidate would mean only
one thing the nomination of Roose-
Welt on third ticket. The Progress
sives are as anxious 20 reunite with
the Republicans as the Republicans
are to have them do so, but they do no.
propose to go more than half way.
They feel that, having cast more votes
in 1912 than the Republicans, they are,
as one Progressive delegate expressed
II to-day. "the real Republican party
Of the nation"
After thrashing it out thoroughly for
three hours and half, they decided
that 10 was only fair to give the Re
publicans one final chance to meet
them and agree, II possible, to get %
gether on candidate and q platform.
SO they passed a resolution empower
ing Chairman Robins to appoint a COM
mittee of five TO confer with Il similar
a . to u L
ventiOn, word having come from the
Republican convention that they would
do the same thing. Chairman Robins
named George W. Perkins, Governor
Hiram Johnson of California, Horace
Wilkinson, of Syracuse; ex-Attorney
General Charles J. Bonaparte, of Bal
timore, and Colonel John NJ Parker,
OF Louisiana.
Chairman Raymond Robins called the
convention to order at 2:35 o'clock, and
after prayer by the Rev. William Chal-
mers Coburn, of Chicago, the report of
the Committee on Credentials was pre-
scented. There were no contests.

promising TO maintain straight and
honest neutrality between the bellig-
erents in the great war in Europe" will
IL is declared, strike responsive
chord among the German voters who
believe that the present Administration
has not pushed aggressively its COM
plants against British interferences
with American commerce.
No discrimination is made between
lives and property. The plank prom
ises to enforce the protection Of every
American citizen in all the rights Sc
cured to him by the Constitution,
treaties and the law Of nations at
home and abroad, by land and sea-"
Mexico Arrangement Vigorous.
The arraignment of the Democratic
policy with regard to Mexico is framed
IN vigorous language and is entirely
satisfactory to all the members of the
committee.
Promising an amendment to the Con-
stitutOn, If necessary, to provide
proper regulation for the railroads, the
interstate commerce plank is interest
ing The absurdity Of the present sys-
tenn of dual control of the railroads by
the Federal and state governments is
pointed out, and il is urged that ex-
elusive control of the railroads be
placed in the hands Of the Federal gov
eminent.
A strong bid for labor support and
also very green olive branch 10 the
Progressiyes, who are more enthusi
astic about the Progressive platform of
four years ago than for the issues now
held paramount by that party, are con-
tanned in the labor plank. II calls for
strong Federal child labor legislation,
for a faithful enforcement of the Fed
eral laws passed for the protection of
labor, for vocational education, for a
generous and comprehensive work
mems compensation law, and an acct
dent compensation law covering all
government employees.
Compromise on Philippines.
The Philippines plank is compro-
mise between the two clements repre-
scented on the committee, one of which
desired declaration of the intention
of the United States 10 hold the islands
permanently. and the other wished no
reference at all TO them. The Demo
cratic Administration - criticised for
its attempt to scuttle, and il is declared
that Ito leave with our task half done

prestige among nations and imperil

Unqualified approval is expressed Of

at Is a triumph for suffrage" said
Mrs. Norman de r. Whitehouse, presi-
dent of the New York State Woman
Suffrage Association. 1--WE are in the
midst of campaign In New York, and
we believe that the adoption of the
suffrage plank by the Republican Ma
tional Convention will enable US to win
that fight. 1t will help in other state
fights az we'll"
The plank proved disappointment
TO the members of the Woman's Con-
gressional Union, however. They had
hoped for straight declaration that
would enable them 20 pass the Federal
amendment. They expressed their dis
appointment freely, but there was
hardly one of them who did not agree
that the recognition of suffrage by the
convention was big step forward.
