The day was started on by the chill

the young folks.
The next thing on the program was
the ball game, which was late due TO
GlenwoOd team not arriving until

ball game will he found elsewhere.
The rOping contest was pulled on

COX is WINNER

After one of the most protracted
struggles in the history OF Demo-
cratic party conventions Governor
James NJ. Cox of Ohio, WAS nomina-
ted, on the forty-fourth ballot, Ms the
party standard. bearer for the 1920
political campaign. The nomination
WAS made at lao o'clock Tuesday
morning, and WAS the elimination OF
u struggle between Cox and McAdoo
In which the former gradually gained
strength until he had 7O2 votes at
the end OF the forty fourth ballot,
when McAdoO supporters moved to
make the nomination of Cox unani-
nous.
The party has wisely picked it's
strongest and, in our opinion, best
man for the Presidency. In Franklin
d. Roosevelt for vice president, All
ether strong aud popular man was
chosen.
|. The leaders and the rank and file
Of the DemYcratic party are well
satisfied with the work of the San
Francisco convention, except Bryan,
who objects to both the platform aud
the nominees. The only thing that
would have satisfied Bryan would
have been u platform constructed by
Bryan and u ticket headed by Bryan.
For once the Democrats didn't
make fools Of themselves, u char
acterization sometimes applied by
themselves and always by the more
or less astute Republicans. On this
occasion the party Of Jefferson aud
jackson had u great opportunity pre-
sented to it and embraced the oppor-
tunity In the nomination Of Governor
Cox, one of the fttest men In the

plans to care for them and to distribute them to best advantage will have been carried out.
 Schofield Barracks, the central military post at Honolulu, will be enlarged to take care of a peace-time force of 16,5w men at any early date and 1s,0oo to 19,oU rious defensive points among the islands to man the extensive coast artillery that is now in place, or will be, in accord ance with the governments military plans.
 Climate and living conditions in Hawaii are so favorable, says the general, that the care of our soldiery is less trouble some than in practically any other army post and from what the commander says 1t is clear that our doughboys and marines take more kindly to service In the land of the surf-board and of the hulu-hulu dancer.
 The government is not even overlook ing a rapid development of long distance airplaning, for among the new defenses of the islands is to be a system of anti aircraft guns that will give; ample pro lection to Honolulu and the various bases of our armed forces on the islands.
 It seems almost tragic that so secluded and peace-loving a spot as Hawaii should require expensive and thoroughly rnain- tained military guards. but that is merely one of the many charges put upon us all by mans cumulative nature.
