Contest Settled Against Negroes

Delegates contests which have fur
nished spectacular features of the
pre-convention period, were finished
tonight by the republican national
committee.
On actual Instructions of the 1877
contested delegates, General Wood
received l2 and Governor Lowden
seven, with 116 uninstructed, the re-
ported leaning of the disputed dele
gates favoring the Illinois governor.
The committee in the two Mis-
souri, contests refused TO seat any
contestants.
All OF the IL district delegates from
Virginia, aligned with the Slemp fac
tiCn were seated. The committee
rejected pleas of negro contestants
for seats and also decided separate
anti-organization contests in the third
and eighth districts in favor Of the
SlenIp faction
According to the reports Of the
candidates favored by the delegates
seated, the 1856 delegates involved
We're distributed as follows:
Wcod Is; I.owden IS; johnson 4;
Judge Pritchard of North Carolina II;
uninstructed and scattering. 81, with
the two Missouri contests rejected
entirely.
All contests are expected to be APP
pealed 10 the convention crcdential
committee, subject 10 revision by the
convention.

gates before the committee charged
had been obtained at 50 a throw.
In practically every contest before
the committee. speakers have declared
that the republican party would meet
little success in. the southern states
unless it took steps to check the al
legged practices As the first step, the
committee by unanimous resolution
warned that no local or district con-
venuons for the next national CON
vention must be held in places not ac-
cessible to ALL regardless of color. The
same committeeman who proposed that
resolution have now, after further
study Of The subject, prepared to sub
NIT plans to slash the delegate rep
resentation OF the southern states to a
minimum in harmony with the num-
Der of republican votes they bring
out at the polls.
The palm Is TO give the states rep
! resentation by limited number OF
delegates at large TO put the required
! number Of republican states in the
congressional districts at mark
which will reduce the district dele
/ gate representation.
The South Carolina case centered
the attention of combination on that
feature as it presented AN instance OF
a state casting only 1900 republican
votes being represented in the nation
al convention with II delegates.
The understanding now is that the
committeeman framing the plan will
| present it to the present committee
before it goes out of existence, and
use the proceedings of the contest
hearings to argue the reason for the
change they demand.
Many committeeman from the north
ern states, particularly, are disturbed
over the problem of the negro vote as
il was represented at contest hearings
Some contests were straight out and
out black and white issues, and in
some OF them the negroes brought
prtma facie evidence Of being in con
troi of the party machinery In some
Of te cashes, this argument was used
10y the appealing delegation in en-
treating the committee to recognize
their delegates on the ground that
negro domination" as some speak
ers expressed it, would prevent the
breaking Of the solid South.

ing point of the procession, although
they are being invited in half dozen
different directions.
Then there is the absence Of the
steadying influence OF the old time
leaders who have hereto been able TO
guide the destinies Of the convention.
rhe bosses who speak with n note OF
authority seem to be absent and al
though the incoming delegates are
willing to be led. they don't find
any considerable party being person
ally conducted in any one direction.
About the only thing that every
body seems to be agreed upon, is
that no candidate is going to be nomi-
mated on the first ballot, and from
the information that leaks out from
the various inner circles of the diff
ferent groups, it seems that all the
managers are figuring on NJ least
three ballots to find out where they
stand, and make up their estimates
on the possibilities. The prediction
of many seasoned politicians is that
the convention will have its opening
hurrah, the complimentary votes for
the favorite sons, the ballots to full
| fill the instructions and pledges. and
| then tn real business will begin.
If the program being talked of is
carried out, the leaders Of the dele

and none of the practical politicians

Still there is another element wrich
adds to the uncertainty which prom
( ises TO continue up to the time the
convention begins 10 ballot. Ii IS a
repeatedly expressed feeling among
state governors. chairmen Of state

Has Steam Roller Worked?

Disagreement between G General
Woods manager over whether the re
publican national committee has been
steam rollered," has furnished the
incident which was needed to wind
up the republican convention prelim
inaries with a three.ring finish.
Although Senator Moses, one of the
generals managers, has denounced
contestants, as a steam roller" pro-
cedure, General Wood himself has
followed up with a personal state
ment expressing confidence in the
fairness of Chairman Hays and dis.
claiming any belief that the commit
teemen are permitting their personal
preferences as to candidates, to enter
into the decisions which will determ.
inc the character of delegation.
Steam roller talk hasn't appeared in
the prelimnaries since the celebrated
Taft-Rooseveit contest of 1912, and
it adds TO the noise and confusion
in which the uninstructed delegate, so
to speak, is having some difficulty
in locating the band wagon.
There are several elements which
contributed TO the support of predic-
tons that it is going 10 be regular
old-time convention. Four years ago,
on pre-convention Saturday, every
thing looked pretty tame. Charles
Tvans Hughes was as good as nomi-
mated, although it was not generally
known, and the atmosphere was
placid. Today, there are a dozen lit.
lie whirling eddies, each loaded with
possibilities of developing into cy
clonic proportions.
hany steadying influences which
suided the preliminaries OF four years
ago, are absent now and a good many
new elements which make for confu.
sion are present.
In the first place the majority OF
the delegates are uninstructed and
although, as is generally the case, a
majority Of them are anxious to board
some band wagon, there does not
eppear to be any There are several
vehicles ready to be rolled out but
the horse power doesn't seem TO be
lnCbilized as yet, and everybody seems
TO look to the possibilities that some
Of the horses may be dark. Moreover
The delegates who will have to con
tribute the votes to nominate the
candidate seem TO be having LITTLE

FIVE WAYS TO REDUCE
HIGH COST OF LIVING

Attorney General Palmer in his
fight to lower the high cost of liv-

lions" as follows:
First. Organization of fair-price
committees in everycity and coun-
ty, backed by Mayors aud prose-
cutting attorneys, with the com.
mittees supporting United States
district attorneys.
Second. Organization Of women
to buy nothing but actual necessi-
ties until prices come down.
Third. Holding of "conserva-
ton" and economy meetings in
every community under the aus
pices of civic bodies.
Fourth. Influence of Mayors
end prosecutors to be brought to
bear on the warning elements to
prevent factional disturbances in
industrial peace of at least six
months duration.
Fifth, Rehabilitation of the
four-minute men to deliver "work
and save" addresses in theatres
each night.
