This Is not written exactly In criticism.
for il may be that what Penrose de
creed will suit the party and result in
It's victory in November But the fact
cannot be blinked that some eminent
Democrats who attended the conven-
ton Went away with grins of satisfac-
ton decorating their faces.
To go back TO the beginning. some
thing must be said of the keyrote
address by Chairman Lodge. II was
one of the most scholarly efforts Of its
kind. and the great mass Of the dele
gates. to say nothing of the audience,
utterly failed to comprehend 1t. The
senator did not once descend to tbs
level of most of his hearers and con
sequently he failed to arouse any
great measure Of enthusiasm.
1t was noticeable that his address al
well as every other speech and thu
platform as well. devoted its denuncia
tory pages not to the Democratic
party as usually the case, but to Presi
dent Wilson. 1t was always his act
and his policies that were condemne'
and the language used in dealing
with him was scorching. OF cours
the reason for this Is that, from tn
viewpoint of the Republicans, MI
Wilson has been the Democratic part
for the last seven years.

dates in the forefront Of the race 70

liminaries were competed their worl

ship. The governments authority to
deport and exclude undesirable aliens
was upheld, but assurance was given
that the rights of free speech, free
press and free assembly will not be
abridged.
A large number of minor topics were
handled In the platform, and then the
plank on Mexico. 1t dealt very Sc
verely with President Wilson's policy
and pledged that the party will not
recognize any Mexican government
unless the lives and property Of
Americans are protected. Armenia
came next in the list of planks. Deep
sympathy was expressed for the Ar
menians, but the president was con-
demned for asking for authority to
accept an Armenian mandate and it
was added that the Republican party
was unalterably against the acceptance
of mandate for any country in
Europe or Asia.
The men who fought in the great war
were assured of the party's deep graf.

lation for the care Of the disabled, In

Though William Jennings Bryan was
present throughout the entire life OF
the convention with the avowed pur.
pose of persuading the Republicans tc
insert dry" plank in their platform
he failed, possibly because the timely
decision of the supreme court seemed
to render unnecessary any explicit
declaration. The convention merely
declared that all laws should be en-
forced and let 1t 60 at that.
Two other elements also wer
disappointed. These were the suffra

be intensely interesting If one could
tell all the truth about the secret in
fluences that governed its actions. On
the surface 1t was not q very excit-
ing affair and the enthusiastic out
bursts that characterized some Of its
sessions appeared too often to be
facetious. For five days the $4,000
delegates, alternates, seat holders and
possessOrs of tickets that allowed
them to stand about the few open
places and hamper everybody else
gathered faithfully in the Coliseum,
prepared to howl with glee over ex-
pected contests and triumphs. But
most Of the time all they could do was
to cheer for their favorite on occasion
and try to keep up with the strong
lunged song and cheer leader who
had been brought up from Camp
Devens.
From the first it was heralded as
that most unusual thing, an Embossed
convention. All the experts asserted
that the delegates were going to do as
they pleased and that the old-time
leadership was impotent. For day
or two this seemed true but then the
senate coterie got into action and from
that time to the end what was done
was generally what it wished done.
To start with, Senator Lodge was
selected as temporary chairman, was
continued permanently in the place
the entire temporary organization be-
ing retained. On the all important
committee on resolutions there were
numerous senator's and ex-senators
and they pretty much dictated the
makeup Of the platform. In the
selection Of the ticket their influence
was seen and felt In every move ant
every shift Of votes, clear down II

satisfied with no less. A plank was
inserted In the platform urging Re
publican legislatures that have not
acted to ratify the suffrage amend
ment. but they did not appease the
ladies'. In the last few moments of
the last session they dropped from a
balcony q great yellow banner on
which was the statement that they
wanted votes. not planks. As for the

president Of their republic" was
there to deliver 4 speech before a
great gathering. But something went
wrong with the plans. and the plank
which was tentatively shaped for the
platform suited them so little that II
was omitted entirely and nothing put
in its place. There was story that
this resolution had been drawn up by
Justice Cohalan of New York In the
hope that 1t would be unsuitable and
that the Democrats in San Francisco
would be enabled to take advantage
OF the circumstances. So. though con-
siderable space has perforce been
given to the platform Of the Republi-
can party. 1t is not because 1t must
be considered as great or q particu
larry strong pronouncement. Lots OF
men and women in the party are fal

Of victory-for public consumption
but each of them knew In his heart
that he could not win If the senatorial
bosses had their way. All the rest Of
the possible candidates really ranked
as, dark horses. They included Her

Coolidge of Massachusetts,, Senator

Governor Sproul Of Pennsylvania,
Senator Philander Knox Of Pennsyl-
vania and Senator LaFollette of Wis
consin. A long enough list in all con-
science. From these dark horses, it
was predicted, would emerge the win
ner. and the prophesy was fulfilled.
1t required three days to get
through with the preliminary work Of
the gathering and to have the plat
form built, read and adopted. The
latter took place on Thursday. As
has been said the resolutions met
with almost unanimous approval. A
young man from Milwaukee was the
only dissenting member of the com.
mittee and he presented minority re.
port that embodied many Of the poll
cies advocated by LaFollette. The
audience did not want to hear hin
and he took advantage of their i'm
patience to try to place himself in the
position Of martyr, but Chairman
Lodge cleverly forestalled this and thu

utive budget and condemnation of the
presidential veto that defeated this
financial reform was coupled with
caustic characterization Of the manner
in which the president. according to
the Republicans, clings to his war time
powers. Revision Of taxation also is
demanded.
Coming to the great Issue Of the
high cost Of living, the committee drew
up a declaration to the effect that the
present conditions are the result Of an
initiation of the currency and Of credit
which the party pledges itself to cor
rect by deflation, the prevention of
unreasonable profits and the stimula-
ton of private thrift by change in
the income tax law. The party re-
affirmed its belief in the protective
tariff and pledged the encouragement
