vstely they are admitting they are
| up against a formidable undertak-
| ing.
William J. Bryan and his dry"
forces, together with the McAdoo
and other administration elements,
appear to have safe control of more
than one-third of the convention in
opposition to Cox. representing as
he does the "wets" and the antiad
ministration folks. With more than
cne-t third of the delegates, the anti
Cox contingent can veto the Sc,
lection of the Ohio governor under
the rule requiring two-thirds ma
jority for the nomination.
There is a notable outcropping of
hesitation to vote for Cox in dele
cations hitherto tagged as deliver
able to him. Delegates who are
personally wet" but officially dry"
because of "dry" constituents, are
beginning to fear they cannot, with
political safety, line up for Cox. In
this connection it is apparent that
Cox will be greatly weakened if the
platform should be adopted before
the nominations and there should
be a convention floor fight on the
prohibition plank in which person
ally "wet' delegates would be COM
pelled to vote dry" Few of them
would have the temerity to vote for
| the Cox candidacy with its light
wine and beer flavor.
Bring Up Divorce Case.
So bitter has the fight on CoS be-
come that the Cox divorce case is
beginning to be factor. Although
the divorce of the Ohio governor,
which he allowed his wife to obtain
without contest, involved nothing
d;screditab1e to the Ohio governor,
delegates are being warned bv his
enemies in the convention that it
would be unsafe to put up a can
ddate who had been in the divorce
courts, in view of the preiudices
which might be aroused against him
i'll the campaign.
McAdoo is up against a comblna-
ticn of the Bryan strength and anti
administration forces. the leaders of
which are confident they posses the
veto power of more than one third
of the convention.
Postmaster General Burleson and
Senator Glass unlimbered today in
a big effort to break this oombina-
ton. Mr.. Bur1eson decided that i
was time to come out plainly and
make an aggressive fight for Nc
Adoo. Calling in the newspaper cor
respondents, he dictated his views on
the platform and when asked about
candidates he promptly said:
Colossal issues must be solved in
the next four years. The American
people will need in that period,
leader who is not only man of vi
sion, but a man of heart and OF great
constructive ability"
DO you know anyone who fits
that measured" he was asked.
81 do" replied Mr.. Burleson en-
phatically. William McAddo fills
the bill. Of course there arc 9TH
ers. but I believe that notwithstand-
ing what has transpired, Mr.. Nc
Adoo will be nominated. His ad-
ministration OF the Treasury de-
partment is considered as ranking
with that of Hamilton. Gallatin,
Walker and Chase, and I believe
that history will place McAdoo sec
ond in that list"
