gave them spiritual advice.

The Raleigh North Carolina, News
and Observer, ow ed by Secretary Of
War Josephus Daniels, says that the
democratic party bases its strength
upon the people composing the par
ty. The figures show that in 1912
there were 60 5000 democratic
votes cast, while there were 1900
900 votes cast fJr the Progressive
and Republican candidates. Mr.
Bryan says that it Is evident that the
Progressives have gone back into the
Republican party. Just what Jose
plus expects to make out of his state
ment it is difficult to understand.
Elections in 1914 showed large de-
creases in Democratic votes. Nobody
claims that the Democrats have
made any gains anywhere, not even
in the solid South. There will be
more than 100000 Republican
votes cast in 1916, and less than
5000 900 Democratic votes.
Successive Republican primaries
furnish conclusive evidence that
there is no overwhelming spirit of
stampede at work among the rank
and file OF the party, who are going
on carefully to select good men to
represent them at Chicago with the
confident expectation that wise coun-
sells will prevail in the national con-
yention and that the nominees will
be a man upon whom all the anti
Democratic voters can unite.

Nearly Every Delegate Has an
American Flag and a Noise
Making Device.
NAY CHANGE THE PROGRAM
More Party Doctrine Expound-
ed by the Leaders of the
Party in Convention.

ST. LOUIS, June l5.-Stll fred
with the enthusiasm fired up yester-
day by the keynote speech OF former
Governor Glynn, OF New York, on
Americanlsm, preparedness. peace
and prosperity. delegates today
crowded into the Coliseum where the
Democratic national convention is be-
Ing held to hear more party doctrine
expounded by leaders OF the Democ-
racy.
While the subcommittee OF the
resolutions committee was engrossed
In Its work Of platform building the
program called for the permanent or
ganization Of the convention, another
keynote speech to be delivered by the
permanent chairman and the delivery
Of addresses by well known leaders
In the party. Delegates were pre-
pared to stir up things with even
more enthusiasm than yesterday.
Nearly every delegate was provided
With an American flag, and some had
loise making devices.
No change is expected in the pro-
gram to nominate President Wilson
ate Friday night Some OF the del
hgates expressed desire that the
convention nominate its candidate
tonight but members OF the resolu-
lions committee pointed out that the
platform will not be ready for the
consideration of the convention until
probably Friday morning. Those del
egates who urged that the conven-
tion wind up its work Thursday night
said they felt It was a mistake to
hold the convention in session n day
longer when 1t was definitely known
who would be nominated.
William 4. Glasgow, Jr.. the Penn
sylvania member Of the rules com
mittee. may offer resolution in the
convention providing that the nomi-
nation OF President Wilson be made

night.
The gathering of the convention
crowd today was not as spectacular
as yesterday when the sufrragists en-
livened the occasion and lent much
color to the scene. But the assem-
blage. II anything. was larger. many
fortunate ticket holders who did not
desire to see the prelimlnaries Of
opening national convention being
on hand to hear the expected ora
tory.
The delegates hoped for cooler
weather. Because OF the limited size
of the oval shaped auditorium, the
delegates have been allotted only six
teen inches Of space for seats ana in
consequence the crowdinG coupled
