BY WRIGHT A. PATTERSON.
For President:
Warren G. Harding, of Ohio.
For Vice-President:
Calvin Coolidge, of Massachusetts,

Convention Hall, Chicago.-The NOM
ination for president was made on
the tenth ballot. The vote on that
ballot for the men who had been the
leading candidates was: Harding,
City; Wood, 15715 Lowden, 49,
Johnson, so 40.
after 1t is all over, that is the news
IL took five strenuous days to pro-
duce; that is all that the great mass of
the public will remember. But for
those who had n part in the contest it
will be an experience to be remen.-
bered for a lifetime and the conven-
tion of 1920 will go down in the his
tory of the Republican party as one
of the hardest waged battles of the
party's existence. 1t was battle Of
which the audience saw but little that
was spectacular; show that did not
measure up to the expectations of the
thousands who had begged and fought
for and purchased tickets, and who had
jammed themselves into the great
building session after session, swelter-
ing anu roasllhg, ana always anlicl-
pating something worth while.
The public did not see the real fight,
as they were not admitted to the coun-
Gil rooms where the differences of con
testing candidates were ironed out,
or where the varying opinions of diff
ferent factions We're being reconciled
so that a platform that would fit all
elements might be produced. The I'M
usual conditions of the times had pro-
duced a wide range of ideas. Men diff
fered radically on important points
upon which the party must go to the
public as a unit II 1t Is to have a

find the common ground upon which
all were willing to stand. Every day
of the five brought its threat of bolt
on the part of some faction, and these
threats brought adjournment after
adjournment, after sessions lasting
from but few minutes to an hour or
so, in order that the new conferences
might be held and new efforts might
be made to satisfy opposing elements.
1t was the league of nations plank
that proved the greatest stumbling
block The irreconcilables of the sen
ate, lead by Senator Johnson, would
not listen to anything that favored of
an Endorsement of the league of ma
lions, with or without reservations.
Another element, lead by Nichols Muir
ray Butler of New York, insisted upon
an Endorsement of the league with the
Lodge reservations. and on Wednes-
day morning it seemed that nothing
could prevent a split on this plank.
1t was at this time that the political
genius of Elihu Root was called upon.
The cables carried the troubles of the
contestants TO Europe. where Root Is
assisting in the organization of an in
ternational court. and the cables
brought back a solution that satisfied
Senator Johnson and his followers, and
which the others were willing to ac
cept In the interests of party harmony.
There was difficulty again over the
labor plank, and again compromise
was resorted to, to prevent Il split.
Much the same thing Is true of the
plank on Mexico and plank on Ire
land. In the end the Irish were over
looked entirely, as nothing the lead
ers were willing to do was satisfac-
tory to that element that was demand
ing a strong resolution acknowledging
the freedom of the Irish Republic"
For hours the resolutions committee,
headed by Senator Watson of Indiana,
fought back and forth. Appointed at
the session of Tuesday, 1t was expect
ed to report at IL o'clock Wednesday

formalities were completed. and an
adjournment taken to l O'Clock of
Thursday. Again the crowd came
back. The convention convened. Car
dinal Gibbons offered an invocation,
and the convention adjourned to four
o'clock. With never ending interest
the crowd was again back at four
o'clock only to wait for two long,
sweltering hours for the fight on the
platform which they were anticipating,
but which did not materialize. The
fight had all been made behind the
closed doors of the council rooms, and
with the exception of the presentation
of a minority report by a member OF
the committee from Wisconsin, to
which no particular attention was
paid, there was no evidence that there
had ever been disagreement, and
the platform was adopted with less
than half q dozen dissenting votes.
Friday gave promise of being red
letter day for the audience and the
fight for the coveted bits of beautl-
fully engraved cardboard waxed hot
and heavy At nine-thirty in the
morning, when the session opened,
every seat was filled, every aisle was
.jammed with an expectant multitude.
1t was to be a day of oratory, and 1t
was. The first order of business was
the call of the states for the naming
of candidates for the nomination for
the presidency. Arizona yielded to
Kansas and Governor Allen took the
platform to name General Wood. The
audience heard what Governor Allen
had to say, and attention was given to
the seconding speeches and to the
speech of Congressman Rodenberg on
behalf of Governor Lowden. When
Judge Wheeler of California, started
to present the name of Senator John
son the audience had had enough of
oratory. The distinguished Califor-
MAN referred to the league of nations
plank as Senator Johnson's plank, and
both delegates and the audience OBJ

jeeted. He referred to the campaign
funds of other candidates and there
was a roar of disapproval. He fought
back, and the audience and the dele
gates fought with him. From that
time to the close of the long seven
hours and more of nominating speeches
the orators might quite as well have
said nothing, as the audience heard
nothing of what they said. Despite
the efforts of Chairman Lodge, the
commotion continued until the last
orator had named the last of the eleven
candidates whose names were placed
before the convention.
a feature of the nominating and
seconding speeches was introduced by
Mrs. Robinson of New York, sister
of the late Theodore Roosevelt. In
seconding the nomination of General
Wood she referred to him as a friend
of her brother, and from that time on
practically each candidate was re-
ferred to as friend and heir of the
departed eX-president.
The balloting began on Friday night
and four ballots were taken at that
time. On these ballots General Wood
was the leader, with Governor Lowden
fairly close second. After the first
ballot motion to adjourn was made,
but was promptly voted down by q
combination of the Wood and Lowden
delegates, who felt that their only
chance to win lay in preventing fur

Another effort TO adjourn was made
after the second ballot and roll call

voted down by the same combination
of delegates. At the close of the
fourth ballot Senator Smoot advanced
to the front of the speakers stand and
moved an adjournment. A roll call
was again demanded, but the demand
was ignored and an aye and no vote
called for. Both sides in the contro
versy exerted all their lung power IL

Together, then, the two dictionaries,
