the city's closer proximity to north,
east, south and west, and because of
its claim of superior facilities for
handling large numbers Of delegates.
Rooms are available in st. Louis for
5000 delegates, it was said.
st. Paul and San Francisco were
also to make fights for the honor Of
entertaining the convention dele
gates. Minneapolis civic leaders have
Joined hands with st. Paul in efforts
to attract the gathering to the Twin
Cities of the North. California boost
ers asked consideration for San Fran
cisco, arguing that their state will be
a pivotal one in the presidential fight
and that the holding of the conven-
ton on the coast will materially aid
republicans in carrying that section.
The disadvantage San Francisco
admits is its distance from the east,
but puts forth it's ability to care for
any crowd that will attend, proving
this by the way it took care of the
huge exposition crowd.
Lack of rooms and halls for enter
tanning the delegates and holding the
convention have kept other cities out
of the race.
