Copyright. lGei. By Public Ledger Coz
San Francisco, June 27.-woodrow
Wilson is on the verge of "vlndica-
] ton" he demands at the hands of
the Democratic party. 1t will take
the form of a mighty demonstration
in his honor at tomorrow's opening
Of the national convention.
Homer Cummings, national chair
man. has been assigned the task, not
merely of sounding the party key
note for 1920. but of giving the sig
nal 70 rs tumult on behalf of the
invalid leader of the Organization.
As at present arranged, the DEM
onstration is to be the overwheIm-
ingly outstanding event of the OPEN
ing session Predictions are made
that it will last one full hour, it
has been carefully staged. Dele
gates. floor and galleries, are to
play their part in a spectacular and
vociferous ovation, which is de-
signed to rival in longevity and orr
ganized racket the biggest noise in
convention annals.
1t is not certain whether the DEM
onstration will follow Chairman
Cummings first and intermediate
! reference TO the President or be
held in check until the full inward
ness of the speakers tribute has
, percolated through the conventions
consciousness and stirred its pas
sions to the depths.
Mr.. Cummings address will be q
whole-hearted and unqualified
Observation-Disclosures appeal. 1t
will acclaim the Wilson administra-
ton record in general and the Presi-
dents treaty tactics in particular
May Bring Nomination.
Fears are expressed in certain
quarters that the Cummings paney-
ric' may have an unintended result
that 1t may generate enthusiasm to
such point that Woodrow wilson's
denomination would ensue. Another
view is that Cummings himself will
emerge as the hero from the Presi-
Dental apotheosis. That the con-
vention will insist, not on honoring
the President but his eloquent de-
Tending counsel.
Cummings cannot yet be dismissed
as a compromise candidate. His
lightning rod is up. and bristling.
1t looks as if it might be well into
the week before the nominating
stage is reached. That will GER
tainly be the case if project. not
yet decided. goes through to nomi-
nate first and wrangle over the plat
form issues afterwards.
That controversial question will
be the first snag against which the
convention is likely to run. II the
usual procedure is adhered to of
building the platform and then find
ing the man to stand on it, whole
days of acrimonious debate are i'm
minent, fights are in sight on at
least four propositions. They in
clude the selection of the permanent
chairman. the prohibition question,
the league squabble, and the Irish
plank.
This may not exhaust the list of
Kilkenny items. 1t is not a private
fight. Anybody can take hand. the
convention is full of belligerent men

Called upon quickly to diffcrentiato courtesy

say they are synonymous. Broadly considered,
yes. And vet they are not the same. When we
speak of courtesy we are apt to think at once
of Chesterfield nS the best exponent of all that
tho word contains. Let MS quote the master Of
propriety on Attention:
Want of attention. which is really want of
thought, is either folly or madness. You should
not only have attention for everything. but n
