San Francisco, June 2e.-The ad-
ministration showed its strength in
the national committee today and
counted upon that result TO carry
the conviction that the convention
is to be no less pro- Wilson.
Organization forces were victori-
Gus in both the Georgia and Mis-
souri, contest cases before the ma
tional committee. The Palmer dele
cation from Georgia was seated by
an unanimous vote, ~ to 0. Sena-
tor James A Reed was denied the
delegates seat In the convention
for which he was twice chosen by
the Democrats of Kansas City.
The vote on the right of the fiery
antagonist of President Wilson's
league of nations covenant was "a
against him to L. favoring him. A
previous test vote, on the question
of having public sessions of the
the NOIeS on Inc
Georgia and Reed cases, disclosed
virtually the same alignment. The
administration members of the COM
mittee, led by Homer S. Cummings
and J. Bruce Kremer, OF Montana,
opposed the open session. Their
wishes prevailed 33 to IL Admin

that the pro-wilson advantage %

San Francisco. June 26.-Across
the hall from the old rose and ma
hoganyfurnished headquarters of
the Democratic Women's party is an
elaborate beauty parlor. In it are
rows of shining manicure tables
upon which the hands that rock the
cradle and are now preparing to
rule the world. also are being
polished up. There are secret booths
in which expert facial masseuses are
doing their miracle wrinkle-remov-,
ing work and there are other COM
partments In which men-mark you,

softly gray or pepper and salty. -.
And lit is in this beauty parlor
that most of the women who are
running the feminine end of the con-
vention and really, putting women
on the map are receiving members
of the press and giving out inter
views, and foregatherinS for little
informal conferences about what
they are going to ask the men in
the way of rights. and what planks
they can get into the platform.
Good as Saloon Used to Be-
Nor need anyone snicker because
the lady politicians hold their meet
ings in a beauty parlor. It's as good
as a saloon used to be, at that.
Moreover, 1t is reassuring that in
their interest in politics the women
haven't lost interest in their femi-

BY HUGH BAILLIE,
UNITED Press Correspondent.)

San Francisco, June :e.-w. J.
Bryan today launched his drive
against Administration control of
the Democratic convention.
In a fighting speech he laid bare
his plan of action and demanded
that prohibition, and not the league
of nations, be made the paramount
issue of the campaign.
Bryan's verbal batteries were un-
masked and turned loose with dra-
matte effect at luncheon. His
drumfire echoed and reverberated
through the corridors of the Palace
Hotel, amid the cheering of his ad-
herents. AS he spoke, delegates
and campaign workers. pushing
and crowding their way through the
lobbies outside heard the demon
Nstration. looked at each other and
asked:
What's that?"
And the reply:
That's Bryan" told the story.
Crowds surged toward the doors
of the room where he was hurting
his bombs at his opponents. In a
moment, he became the storm cen-
ter of the convention. His fists
clcnched, hair disheveled, his voice
one moment low and vibrant with
emotion, the next raised to a shout,
mopping the perspiration from his
face as he paused for breath during
bursts of applause, the Commoner
stood, a determined figure, in the
midst of the throng.

The speech was unexpected; ne
had been scheduled only to make q

him to come into the open in such

Art Sattler was born in Ohio,

to be a tall strong lad. When
he was only nine years old. Mr..

move for the northern part Of
Minnesota near Hibbing. Art
and his father loaded their be
longings on two large wagons,
drawn by two big teams of hor-
SEES. The boy and his mother
drove one team and his father
drove the other. Art saw many
sights that were new to him
and one day he saw beautiful
deer. His father was going t.
shoot it but the boy begged him
not to.

Sattler told the boy to take his
1856 rifle if he wanted to, it
held nine shots. But to leave it
quite a ways from the school
house. The boy had to walk to
school as his father had sold his
horses, and could not take him.
Art SAID he would like to tax,
the rifle. The next morning he
took the gun and started for the
school house. In the same spot
as he had heard the noise the
morning before he heard it
again. then he heard brush
crackle, and in Mute an old
bear stood on his hind legs in
the middle Of the road, about
thirty feet away. the boy raised
the rifle took careful aim at his
heart and fired. The bear fell.
Art shot six shots into him be-
fore he could get up, and there
the bear lay motionless before
the boys eyes. He saw the
blood flowing over the ground,
and SO knew he was dead. The
boy ran home and told his father
and mother. His father went
and got Mr. Scott with his horse.
He thought it very brave of the
boy. and said he had not ought
to be allowed TO go thru the
woods alone. Mr.. Scott helped
get the bear home, and said that
Art was the youngest boy ever
known around that country to
shoot q bear. Art was willing to
go to school, but his father said
he guessed that he had better
not go any more that term, but
Art said he wanted to go so his
father gave his consent. and
gave him the gun for shooting
the first bear.
The boys father sent the
bear skin away and had it tan
ned, When Art got it he put
it by his bed so when he got up
n the morning he always
thought Of the bear. Art went
thru his studies fast Year az
ter year passed. When Art was
fourteen years he passed out of
the eighth grade. His father
asked him if he did not want to
go to high school. and he said
No. Thought he would rath
er stay and help his father than
to go away and leave him to do
it. all. So Art stayed at home
and helped his father. Arts
father bought a team of work
horses for him. The boy thank
ed him very much. and said he
was going to break up all the
land that was cleared. Art
broke up ten acres in three DAYS.
The boys father told him he
could put. into it anything he
wanted to. He disced and drag
ged it and put it into flax. Art
was very careful how he put it
in. Slow but sure his flax grew,
swinging their little blue heads
in the wind. After a while the
flowers fell off and the flax
ripened. After him and his
father had cut, stacked anV|
threshed it, and sold it he got
enough to buy himself a little
farm. Mr.. Sattler helped him

When he was twenty-one
years old he moved onto his own
place: he put on a big house and
