then President of the United
States,-whose smile always

was received everywhere with
a tremendous ovation
pulled through with but two

very fact, and the kind of reception they
will be accorded throughout the country,

when the Hughes vote mount

was a pitiful three for his

Even in such a notable
ease as the Democratic Con-
vention in Baltimore, the
length of time the candidates
were cheered was confusing.
Speaker Clark and Gov
