SECRETARY STATE HODGES IS GIVEN MUCH PRAISE,

Much praise is being given Secre- tary of State Earle W. Hodges for hls part in securing the 1917 meeting ot the Texas Press Association for IeXarkana. He attended the con- vention at Fl Paso, and carried away the honcrs. Earle Hodges doesn't sulk. He is a game loser, and just because his ambition to be governor Of Arkansas was temporarily de- ferred he does not go about with a long face and weepful eyes-he is as red-blooded as ever. The Texarkana Press says:
 "To the wonderful personality of Earle w. Hodges is due. more than to any other factor, the success of the Texarkana delegations efforts to se- cure the Texas Press Association next year. Those who were opposed to us those who were with us-those who were neutral-all Hooked to Earle Hodges.
 "On the return trip Earle was unanimously nominated for Governor of Texas, and Arkansas was annexed to Texas Earle was given an ova- tion every time he was in evidence and he was always happy-always boosting-always singing. It is good for Texarkana to have such friends. "

sort that punctuated the proceedings
 where the Old Guard was holding the Republican party off the rocks of a
 treacherous progressive coast. At no tune was the demonstration spontan-
 eous, If we except the single instance
 when New Mexican Senator. in de-
 fiance of the Old Guard, placed T. R.
 Tn nomination for the Presidency
 Really 1t was not on the program, all
 though not unexpected. But the hun dred and some odd Roosevelt dele gates, and several thousand specta
 tors Tn the galleries proceeded to give an imitation of an insane asylum on frolic. They kept it up for 45
 minutes-had to do it, cause the three states which had joined with New York in parading for Hughes had scored thirty-three minutes. The Republicans lacked cohesion. but not candidates of the favorite son type. Their sole aim and purpose was to block any possible stampede to Roosevelt They offered eight or ten men upon the altar as vicarious sac ritices, and as each was named the delegates from his state tried to start something" Frequently it ended in g try. The demonstrations lasted all the way from one minute for the explosive DuPont to thirty five minutes for the refrigerant Fair banks. But the demonstrants were selfish about it. They didn't appear to want to divide time with any one else. And the galleries were distress lngly non-responsive. Even the elo- quence of Gov. Wilkis in nominat ting Senator Burton, aroused only 22 min utes of counterfeit enthusiasm, which may have been sincere on the part of the Ohio fiag-wavers, and got him but 77 votes.
 But at St. Louis it was different. There was genuine, spontaneous, from-the-heart, approval of all things Democratic that carried conviction of its sincerity. The Democrats were happy and didn't care who knew it. Their happiness bubbled over on every occasion, and sometimes with out occasion. They, too, had come With only one purpose, and their cup of joy splashed over continually. At the opening of their convention, the walls Of the Coliseum bulged with their shouts as each of the II ,000 per sons present waved flag frantically and sang "The Star Spangled Ban ner." Their demonstrations were un- bounded whenever the magic names of Wilson. or Bryan, or the flag were mentioned. Everything any every body but the Republican nominee and platform were cheered nightly, even the Massachusetts delegate who want ed an Irish Home-rule plank-and didn't get it.

THE THREE NATIONAL
 CONVENTIONS.
By Clio Harper.

The writer attended the national conventions of the Republicans and Progressives in Chicago and the Democrats in St. Louis. One may become national convention fan, just as one becomes baseball tan or near-beer fan. also attended the Republican convention in Chi cago in 1912, when the great split occurred which helped to land the
 school master governor of New Jer- ay in the Presidential chair. All that IS lacking to round out the record $ the Baltimore convention of 1912. where the most important chapter of this great national history was writ ten.
 The proceedings, the platforms, the speeches, all the things which ap- peared oh the surface, and many which appeared below the surface, are matters of history. There were sOmething less than a thousand his
 Orians present at each of the con- yentons, and-speaking of the short age of white paper-several young forests were exhausted for wood-pulp whenever an extra issue of one of the great Chicago or St. Louis papers appeared on the street And an eX- ra was issued every few minutes rom , o'clock in the morning to 3 o'clock the next morning, invariably one ccnt each. Newspapers are the cheapest commodity there, and people buy them to sit on and watch the pro- cesslon gc by, or to protect their hats from the rain. But that by the by.
 In this article the writer does not presume to write history, but obser- Wtions and impressions. Seeking for a dominant feature of the three national assemblies of country-sav- CTS, the thing that looms biggest is their noise Riotous demonstration IS the measure of individual .enthus- lasm in partisan achievements, the only true standard of personal politi- cal prowess. At least, that is the inevitable conclusion that one must reach from critical comparison of he three conventions.
 Again, riot and noise are divisible into classes. There was the frantic, uhcurbed, ebullient, tempestuous ac- eialm by which the Bull Moose fol- towers voiced the one idea of their eohvention, for they knew no one, thought of no one, fought for no one, uut the man of Oyster Bay, and "We want Teddy" iterated like the cease ,eSs beating of the sea upon a rock oound coast, was their only refrain. That was one kind.
