Washington, October -(special)-Ar- thur F. Mullen. democratic national com >mitteeman from Nebraska, while visit ing Washington, expressed conviction that the national committee at it's next meeting, would abolish the rule under which a candidate to secure the nomina- tion fn--convention must receive two- thirds of the votes of the convention.

It was decided. however, that such an important matter should receive the attention of the committee as a whole. Action was therefore deferred.
 'T believe. however, the committee when t meets will so act that 8 candidate may be nominated by majority vote"
 Had that rule prevailed in 1912 Champ Clark would have been the nominee and would have been elected President of the United States.

INDIANA MAN TELLS
 OF TRIP TO ALABAMA

Washington, October 9.-(SpecialD Representative Wood of Indiana, repub- lican, who campaigned in the Seventh Alabama district in behalf of Candidate Kennamer of the republican party. has given Alabama an opportunity to see itself as certain others see it.
 Mir. Wood, in course of an address in the House, gave expression to these ex- cerpts.
 MT Speaker. the gentleman from Ala bama (Mr Bankhead) few moments ago asked Dr. Tess in regard to the charac- ter of the prejudice resorted to in this special campaign in Alabama. I desire to give him an example. When I arrived at Birmingham on my way to the district was handed a paper, the Birmingham Age-Herald, announcing my coming and giving the places where 1 was to speak Among other things it stated that I was a carpetbagger Qaughter); that 1 was af- nicted with what was known as Wilson phobia; that I had come down there to drop poison; that I was there for the pur pose of deluding the people; that they would resent any man fnom the north coming down there to tell them how to vote, That was a sample ef the preju- dice to which they resorted. When I ar rived at the place of my first speaking. Cullman, was met by a committee. l did not know but that it was a commit tee to carry out the spirit of the article to which I have just referred, but they turned out to be friends.
 tT was instructed as to the manner of procedure. I was informed that the gen. tleman from Alabama (Mr. Heflin) had spoken there the day before, and was told something about his speech. It was suggested to me that there were three things that they would like to have me do: First, to give Heflin hell; second, to Ngive Wilson hell, and especially to give the league of nations hell. Oaughter.l declined the first proposition. I informed the audience the next day that they did not appreciate the gentleman from Ala bama; that it was a demonstration of the old adage that a prophet is not with out honor save in his own country; that he was easily the biggest man in the Ala bama delegation, and you did not have to prove it, for he would admit it. Qaugh- ter0 I also informed them that they did not appreciate his influence; that the gentleman was desirous of entering the war: that he was chafing like a war horse to get into the fray, and would have gone if it had not been for the ur gent request of the President of the United States to remain here: that for him to go would deprive him (the Presi- denb of his mouthpiece in the House. Qaughter.)

Spokane, Wash, October a.-Senator Hi- ram w. Johnson addressed an audience here tonight which filled the state arm ory, which has an estimated capacity of 1000 persons He presented his argu- ments opposing ratification of the league in it's present form.
 He declared that the nation faced the question of following "the tortuous. sin uous, cynical path of European and Asiatic diplomacy or of going along ''the straight and narrow path of 100 per cent Americanism.''
 Speaking of the league of nations, he said that what was presented to us in the form of league of nations was not design to prevent war at all, but was purpose on the part of European and Asiatic nations to make the United States bear the burden of every future war that should be brought in all this world"
 Following his address here Senator Johnson left for his trip into Montana and Utah.

 It is by far the best exhibit ever put, on here as to size and quality and the care with which the products are exhibited. Each year there is i'm provement not only in the varieties shown but in the manner of showing them. There is taste in displaying fruits. vegetables and grains and cot ton, just as there is in dressing.

That is what such exhibits are for. Many who walk through Agricultural hall will have their attention attracted and will stop to finger at the various booths and then go home to talk what they have seen among their neighbors.
 But as much as I enjoyed the county exhibits. the things which gave me the most pleasure was to look care fully through the individual exhibits, which this year are really remarkable. Some of them looked like county ex- hibits It was hard to believe that one family could raise all that was shown in them. If you have any doubt that ap up-to-date Alabama farmer can live at home. just take a peep into R. c. Callaway's booth. or c. .. Crutchfield's. or Hugh Ballou's, or Dr. Nafters. or W. c.

 Right here I want to suggest to T. P.

I'll make bold to say that the best way to do it will be to have them meet at the grounds for dinner and then make the visit.

NATIONAL GUARD
 MAKES PROGRESS
Employers of Labor in Full Accord With Movement, :
 It Is Stated

More progress towards the organiza- tion of local national guard companies has been made during the present week than at any time in the past Enlist ments have not been as numerous as mad been anticipated, and in order to in crease interest a number of business men at meeting a week ago appointed committees to secure the sympathy and support of the merchants and business men generally.
 These committees visited mer chants and business offices downtown Wednesday and yesterday and secured their signatures to cards agreeing for their employees to join the national guard.
 These cards were posted on the bull ietin boards and the managers agreed to call them to the attention of their 'employes.
 1t has been reported that some of the merchants objected to their employees joining the national guard on the ground that it would interfere with their duties and at certain intervals take them away from their places of employment
 canvass of the city has shown this report to be unfounded, practically every merchant readily signing the card when presented to them. They not only con- sented to their employees to become mem bers of the local guard companies, but also agreed to pay their salaries at such times as they are called into duty by competent authority.
 With this agreement those in charge of the local organization believe that very little difficulty will not be encoun- tered in recruiting up to the required strength,
 It is pfoposed to organize at least four and probably eight companies in Bir- mingham.

sue down there, there can be no manner of doubt. Although the speakers and the press in every issue were disclaiming the fact that the league of nations was the issue, the Gadsden democratic paper came out every day and said it was a false issue, and was done for the pur- pose of fooling the people; that no matter who was elected he would have no voice and nothing to say, and apepaling to the fact that the letter sent by Dr. FeSs, chairman of the congressional commit tee, for the people down in that section to vote for Kennemer was based on the fact that Kennemer had promised to vote for certain issues inimical to the south The main appeal made by the gentleman from Alabama was that in the event that the treaty was ratified cotton automat- ically would go to 60 cents a pound. Qaughter)
 But, Mir. Speaker, in all seriousness, I wish to bear witness to the fact that in all my experience, in all the campaigns that I have ever had to do with, I never received a warmer reception or more cor dial welcome than I did from the repub- licans in that community. I want to say as to the proposition which comes in large measure from the other side, that the republicans merely to get the plunder when we are in power is a base islander, that it is not true in any sense of the word, and that the republicans in the Seventh district of Alabama are com posed of the best citizens of Alabama, and if they have the courage to stand up and be knocked down year after year, as they have been doing, ever ready to fight for the principles of the republican party, gaining strength with each en- counter, so that in this campaign it be- came necessary for the entire Alabama delegation, with one or two exceptions, to go to the rescue of one of their demo- cratic candidates, it augurs well, and demonstrates that there is still hope and that the light is breaking for better day" Laugher)
