 Speaking extemporaneously, he took us his theme patriotism and devotion to the vision of liberty held by the revolution ary fathers.
 We are here today because a small group of patriots met together and had the vision to conceive a great idea and the courage to carry it out he said.
 .No progress has ever been achieved without vision, courage and perform ance. What we achieved for liberty has always been a flaming torch for the whole world"
 lie turned toward group of civil war veterans, and continued:
 These men responded to the call to vindicate liberty, and as result organ ized great union strong enough to vim dicate democracy and destroy autocracy when the call came.
 The men who died in Flanders gave their lives for similar purpose, for their vision of preserving liberty, and we must not fail to rededicate ourselves to their vision.
 When look about and see the suf- ferng abroad. not only among our allies. but among our late enemies 1t is enough to wiring the heart of humanity.
 we must draw from this lesson on the necessity of having vision and courage. There Is no progress standing still"
 Referring to the place where the revo- lutionary hero, Nathan Hale was cap- tured by the British, he said:
 Huntington is place particularly fit for rededicating ourselves to this vision. We drink again here the spirit of Nathan Hale, ifnmortalized in the greatest utter ance know of, I only regret that have but one life to give for my country This is spirit every American citizen should cultivate"
 Mir McAdoo attended the exercises merely as a spectator During the course of the addresses someone discovered him and called for speech The cry was taken up by others. and at last the for mer secretary of the treasury yielded He made. no reference to contemporary poli- tics.
 Mir. McAdoo retired early tonight after newspaper men gathered here to keep in touch with him during the convention. had furnished him with news of the oal- loting up to the time the recess was taken this evening.
 The McAdoo home was virtually opened to the reporters today: They were in- vited to the house and given the use of the front porch. Tea and cakes were served this afternoon and coffee and sandwiches tonight.

people apparently arc not inter- ested in continuation of demo- cratic occupancy. No word has gone forth as to who would he accepta- ble. Apparently the President is not interested in the candidacy of his former Secretary of the Treas ury and k not desirous of settling the differences which exist here.
 If the baiIotipg goes on much longer with the animosities devel- oping and the lack of either lead ership or organization. the party will be left in the attitude of rowing band of political marauders bent upon devouring the opposing party, but without either Organi- xation or leaders.
 The McAdoO people are trying ail the tricks known to convention tactics, but they have no real Iead- CTS. There is no McAdoo man here whose trading promises would be accepted as binding. There is no mnn here with authority from Me- Adoo to speak for him and the men who were geing for him have started so many run,ors on other candidates that the bitterness is growing.
 To the casual democratic ob- server with national ambition for democratic success it is a silly con- venti0n of n lot of simple demo- cratic novices. It has been running for several days on flat tires with no objective except to make the engine run regardless of destruc- ton to the tires which will be needed when the real race for the White House goal Is started be- tween the republican and demo- cratic contestants.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1920-07-06

The McAdoo people, knowing he would vote for Cox, refused to nI- low him to exercise it. That added to the bitterness. The Palmer peO- pie are holding fast, but won't go anywhere and nobody will go to them. The dark horse business has been tried out with Davis of West Virginia, Vice President Marshall, and Senator Owen, but not one of them seems to have any drawing power.
 Alabama tried Underwood as n dark horse, but. like Glass of Vir- ginia, every one declines to com slider seriously the candidacy of my southern man at this time.
 Apparently a message from the President, or one from McAdOO, Is the only thing which can unraveI the skein. The President persist ently declines to interfere, and MeAdoo apparently has promised to say nothing and leave the entire matter to his friends out here. They are largely office holders or former office holders, and are pre- pared to fight to the last ditch.
 San Francisco, July 5.-(Special.) At 10 o'clock tonight the delegates to this convention continue to act like thousand coyotes upon n western prairie. They are leader less and ranging widely, searching for n general to control nnd or ganise them and lead them into a land of promise. and of food.

Democratic President of Marion Civic Association Predicts He Will Ride Into White House on
 Mule
sy As.ocI.tsd ,s, press

Marion, O., July 5.-It was as dear friends and neighbors" that United States Senator Warren c. Harding. the republican candidate, spoke to the thou sands of Marion and other Ohio citizens who today gathered about his home to welcome his return.
 In response to welcome address by D. R. Crissinger. president of the Ma rion Civic Association, he told them frankly that he liked the rejoicing lover a more than usual tribute to fellow townsman.'
 If it is becoming to assent to the praise you bestow, let it be understood that any preference ever shown me IS wholly and invariably due to that con- sideration which I have willingly shown to others, and to an an inherited con- yiction that it is waste of Gods rich endowments to assaiI and destroy when all the flowers of life bloom best in the soil of sympathy and encouragement" he said.
 He spoke intimately with his fellow townsmen of their joint efforts to make Marion a greater and better city. their tributes paid him on other occasions when he had been visitor in political battles and especially the tribute of in dorsement shown by the county at the April primaries He said If he had to choose between the tribute paid by his home county in the primary and that ex- tended by the Chicago convention he would choose the former ''because you, knowing me made 1t the finest triDute to which one may aspire.
 If the admonitlon of Mir. Crissinger, himself a democrat, comes true, Senator Harding will ride the democratic mule into the White House next November. .I admonish you, my fellow citizens" he said that he will ride the democrat ic mule into the White House in No vcmber as President - Of the United States"
 Going farther than predicting Senator Harding's election. Mir Crissingsr said he knew your enthusiasm and appre- citation will prompt your votes to '-n cast irrespective of party ties so as to make it possible for each of you to ex- tend the right hand of fellowship to Florence Harding as the first lady of the land and to Warren c. Harding as the President of the United States
 Following a recital of Senator Hard ing's early life from barefoot corntrv lad MT. Crissinger declared the senator "is neither too proud to fight nor too proud to work that he is no "silk stocking" business man. but a ''real fellow, a man who thoroughly knows his business and does it, and the printers rule which he always carries as his rabbit foot
 Bu4 Senator Harding did not receive all the tribute. He was compelled to share it about fifty-fifty with Mrs. Harding in the welcomin~ ceremonies How she had shared In the trials and triumphs If her husband were -e',.oa '.. 1t~ Crissinger. who asserted that her tact ful ways will ma'-e her favorte as the first laIy Of the land
