The President and Texas

It do things spite; reawaken antasonism and intensity bitterness unnecessarily bit of advice that element of democrats in Texas heed. It is proposed there send an anti-Wilson delegation the Francisco conven- ton. What would a delegation there?
 It is very probable that anti Wilson delega- ton could be mustered state. There is perhaps other where the president is less uar. His unpopuarty there begun with the working out of his Mexican policy and has been completed by his interference democratic state politics.
 So unpopular is the president in Texas that doubt has been expressed whether a candidate he could carry that This doubt has uttered in seriousness against jocular predictions from the earliest times that Texas would republi So it would appear be easy construct anti Wilson delegation in Texas
 But again, for what purpose? The president will not be candidate for renomnation. Doubtless he expected to be- anyway leading demo- crats thought he would But things have since intervened that have put him hopeessly the running So Texas delegation formed to oppose the president would find occupation worse.
 There will be delegations Francisco in interest of other candidates the nomination There will be delegates and perhaps whole delegations pathy with the anti-Wson sentiment of the Texas delegation. but they will be careful not to parade that sympathy. Moreover, there will be thing that the convention must do-it must endorse the Wilson administration whether That may be bitter pill but must be taken into the democratic system. It may be sugar-coate The convention may do own democratic mittee recently did, endorse it by reference generally eulogistc remarks of the president letter in which he spoke highly of the democratic party rather than of the specific achievements administration. Thus. if there any dissenting democrats who had it in for the president, the mittee could take refuge behind Mir. Marshall said it. the committee could explain pointing ward the vice president

BETTER WEATHER
 CAUSES A DROP IN
 BOTH CORN AND OATS
From Fifty-Cent Loss to Fifteen-Cent Gain
sv Associated Press

Chicago, May 5.-Corn and oats av- eraged lower in price today, chiefly as result of better weather and more favorable crop reports. Corn closed nervous at 1%c net decline to 1c ad- vance with July S1.6SA to $1.6Slh and September S1.60A to s1.60ls. Oats showed a setback of 1c to 17sc. Tn pro- visions the outcome varied from soc loss to 15c gain
 Increased selling pressure, together with lack of support, was manifest at the opening in the corn market. Bears made much of the prevailing sunshine and higher temperatures. and there were advices that corn planting was in progress at various points in 1lli- nois. Iowa and Indiana Besides, early sown oats were declared to be com ing up rapidly. With another week of favorable weather, it was said, corn planting would be general throughout the big producing states. In the last part of the day. however. shorts dis played fresh anxiety in regard to the effect of railway traffic conditions on the May delivery of corn. As a con sequence May ran up temporarily to the topmost point yet this season.
 Bearish views of a leading crop ex- pert were practically responsible for the downturns in the oats market.
 Provisions weakened with grain, but afterwards rallied owing to the late firmness of hogs and of May corn.

 Dealings were unusually light and contracted throughout, except Tor occa- sional drives against the bears in oils, steels equipments and other specula- tive issues which continued to/ fea- tGre the operations of professional traders.
