STRENGTH OF LOWDEN

Of course, there must be a nominee. Put one knows little regarding the name of the candidate who will be sue ccssful. Strangers are marveling at the strength of Governor Lowden. Prior to the convention, he was regarded as enc who made his way until he married the daughter of the very rich Pullman
 and then had no necessity further to make his way, as man of many mil liens who spent them as he willed, and as a governor who as governors go was A very fair example. But seriously. very few people regarded him as one destined to be formidable And that very thing he has come to be--formida- ble. During the past few days he has piayed good politics. He has declared his satisfaction that despite the threats of those who love this country little, he prevented the caucussing of the un- faithful of Chicago during the time of war. And he has slapped Mayor Thompson every time he showed his face. And he repudated Kansas City delegates who it was alleged with seeming accuracy, accepted Lowden naoney in Missouri. And he is a very able man, withal.
 Of course, his declaration against second term caused the wise to smile a little wryly. The politicians seem to think that no one can carry the
 Party to victory as certainly as President who has served only one term. And if Lowden is nominated, of course the politicians will nominate klm again. Very few people of the United States, it is entirely probable, remember that Woodrow Wilson ran for President in 1912 on a platform which declared for a single term for President Wilson accepted the condi- tions. And yet he repudiated his plat form. and the people excused him-nay, went so far as to elect him again. Will son could not have prevented his nom inatio in St. Louis four years ago. And Lcwden, if he is elected this year, could Lot prevent his nomination folr years hence. But at that, LowSlen may have meant well when he gave utterance to a pleasing thought. But before the second term Presidents fail to exist, the constitutional tinkers must again get to work patching up the constitution.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1920-06-09

In Chicago in 1916, Theodore Roose- welt, crying for third term, was in his own. It was one of the most spectacu- lar gatherings in the history of the United States. The progressive con- vention was full of color and feature; full of yelling, hurrahing, singing, cheering, stamping and stampeding al- ways in one direction.
 It was a pity that that convention was one so doomed that nothing could come of it but a variety of treachery Roosevelt used his friends as a farmer uses his hoe. He held them in leash
The Birmingham age-herald., 1920-06-09

to threaten and overawe the convention of regulars to make them hesitate to nominate one of their choice for fear he would bolt. as he had done four years before, and carry his formidable following with him. But the "Old Guard" sheld its own, and in it's own good time nominated Hughes. And Roosevelt then showed a feather as white as that fhich featured the course of Henry of Navarro. He quit dead cold. His following, against his insist ence, nominated him. But he would not lead. He took to the woods, and the progressive party. despite it's enthu- siasm, was permitted to die.
 COLISEUM IS COLORFUL
 However, the convention of 1920 is a colorful affair, lacking as it promises scum is most attractive. and it is said to present a handsomer appearance than any other convention hall ever presented. The flag decorations are wonderful. Covering the roof and walls of the auditorium are so many banners that it appears to be a hall lined with silk. There are 1721 flags. the odd flag being that of the President of the United States. The smallest flag is 5 by s feet; the largest, 25 by 40.
 Sound transmitters have been in- stalled so perfectly that nothing said il q carrying voice can fail to reach and impress every ear. This feature is new, and cannot do otherwise than add

 But about the nominee? No one
 knows. The convention seeths in fight between the progressives and the

And there is Mayor Thompson. Dur ing the war, he was Kaiser" Bill Thompson, for itis said that he did not love the United States to such an ex- tent that he would run the risk of alien atng the pro-German vote of this
 great city And strange to say, de- spite his unsavory reputation, Kaiser"
 Bill fails to support Goevrnor Lowden On the ground of his contention that Lowden is lacking in essential Ameri- canlsm One of the little jokes of life, it would appear!
 Well, Kaiser" Bill is putting on heap of airs. He has roped off an en-
 tire subdivision of the invaluable floor of the Congress hotel for the entertain ment of his friends. This space is cov- cred in American flags. It is as taste- fully arranged as artificers could make
 it. And above the door, this: Mayor Thompson's Quarters for the Reception of His Friends" And the place is gen,
 orally crowded, too But there is very little room for the people to stand in on the hotel floor proper, and Thomp- sons reception quarters gives one an opportunity to breathe. And again there is always the hope that some where the Chicago Kaiser" might un- earth a wee flask--a hope which up to this good moment has been futilely Ildulged.
