Governor Willis, of Ohio. stayed
under water longest. He nominated
Theodore Burton and surprised every
body when he named his candidate.
During the time he was quoting from
the Gettysburg address and the second
inaugural, il looked very much like Lin

cheered him wildly.
At the end of the first half hour
Willis was still going strongly, using
the breast stroke for the most part.
Willis is a man Of great strength and
lung power One of the achievements
which brought him the Goyernorship
was the fact that he ate ten chicken
pies at a county fair. This was duly
chron.cled IN the Ohio papers, and
cartoonists of that state are fond Of
drawing the doughty Governor with a
lunch basket strapped about mis- waist.

Chicago, June 9.-The Republicans
cheered Charles Warren Fairbanks for
thirty-three minutes at the convention
this afternoon. This may not be the
longest cheer ever recorded, but 1t
seemed longest. Anybody who cheers
Fairbanks for half an hour knows that
he has been working. To the credit Of
the delegates responsible for the dem
onstration it should be said that not
once in all the thirty-three minutes did
anybody refer to him as Charlie"
The outburst for lndiana's fayorlte
son was aided by stout woman and a
brass band. The band played "Old
Black joe" out OF compliment to the
negro delegates, and the stout woman
waved two American flags. 1t is IN
derstood that she is reducing.
William R. Wood, who nominated
Fairbanks. broke all the rules. He
named his candidate three times before
he finished. This lessened the dramatic
element in his appeal somewhat, be-
cause when he got down TO the who
was it," everybody knew the answer in
advance. The inspiring slogan which
Wood pinned on his candidate was "he
has never given offence to anybody"
The speaker talked about Fairbanks
for more than forty minutes. but the
Indiana delegates prepared their spon-
tsneous eoutburst long before the ad-
dress ended. They passed about Ameri-
can flags and Indiana standards, and
the cheer leaders ran here and there
along the aisles and urged the delegates
to brace up and get ready for the or
deal
After a time Wood ceased speaking
and the Indiana folk began to parade
and holler determnedly. The other
day Joe Cannon suggested the posi-
bllity that an earthquake might swal-
low up all the delegates. After fifteen

conferences.
Whitman Snubbed.
AS II this were not enough trouble,
Governor Whitman has made no secret
of his disappointment III not being
named as one of the peace conference.
As the floor leader for Justice Hughes,
he felt that he was entitled to recog-
milton by appointment on this commit
tee. There is reason, however, for say
ing that the suggestion made in his
behalf received only passing notice.
Among the New York delegates the
statement is freely made that the Gov
ernor supposed that his selection of
Straus to be a member of the Public
Service Commission would give him
Progressive support in various matters,
but since coming here notice has been
served upon him that the Progressive
leaders do not feel they are under any
obligation TO do his will either here or
in New York State politics.
Mr.. Straus is in thorough accord
with his colleagues from New York, but
he is not discussing his relations with
the Governor with the reporters. Mem
bers of the New York Progressive dele
cation. however, say that he feels he
is in no way bound to follow Mr.. Whit
man politically merely because of the
appointment he gave him.
