SETBACK FOR BRYAN
BY WILLIS j. ABBOT.
(staf Correspondent.)

San Francisco. July 6.-The re-
suit Is distinctly a defeat for the
A leader said to
me. I'VE gave our White House the
platform and a swift kick" Not
one recognized leader of the Wilson
forces was for Cox. Many were not
for McAdoo. but were aligned with
Palmer or with Davis. The Cox
was probably the bit
terest pill that could have been ad-
to the White House.
1t was equally defeat for
Bryan. The administration and anti
forces first united to unhorse the
Commoner in his platform nght, and
then the anti-administration crowd
rode rough-shod over both him and
the Federal machine. There Is no
doubt of the bitterness OF Bryan's
for neither the candidate
nor the platform at all comedies
with his desires.
Chances of Victory Topft.
OF course. the talk this morning
centers upon the chances Of elect
ing the ticket. The professionals
are confident. Impartial judges
concede that there is a good chance
for Democratic success IL certain
things operate as may be expected.
To begin with some hope is based
upon the ticket that II expected

Committee of Forty Eight at Chi

Pleased With Results.
Democratic leaders are prepar.
ing to depart from San Francisco
well-pleased with their convention.
Most Of them are far more hope
tul OF party success in November
than they were when they came
here ten days ago. Some of the
dyed-in-the-wool administration adj
herents were swallowing rather
hard, but none undertook to state
that the convention had not chosen
its strongest candidate for the
nomination. Following the Palmer
withdrawal last night there were
some sharp clashes between sup-
porters of Cox and McAdoo in
several important State delega-
tons, the Federal ofice-holding
groups being roundly scored by
the Cox men for insisting upon
McAdoo's candidacy and denying
to Ohio, recognition for having
made possible in 1916 the Official
positions held by them.

Democratic Washington yesterday
accepted Gov. James NJ. Cox. of Ohio,
and Franklin D. Roosevelt. Of New
York. as Its nominees, with a calm
ness that was In sharp contrast to
the delirium OF the convention bal
loting. 1t cannot be said that he
was hailed as the Moses so often re-
ferred to by Democratic leaders in
San Francisco. but rather in a spirit
approaching resignation. and he was
characterized with frequency as "as
good as any man that could have
been chosen
There was nothing said at the
White House or by men in touch
with the President to Indicate that
the nomination was displeasing to
Mr.. Wilson, but there was discern
able there, as everywhere else, the
feeling that with Gov. Cox as the
candidate prohibition was likely to
become an issue of more prominence
than the league of nations.
Gov. Cox declined in his conven-
tion fight to regard prohibition as
an issue. A letter made public quotes
him as being for "iaw" enforcement,
but at the same time the Ohio chief
executive in an interview in Chicago
some months ago said that he IA
vored liberalization of the volstead
act to permit the manufacture and
sale of light wine and beer. He
has been known as wet for years;
he has been stamped as a wet can
didate by the Anti-Saloon League.
the last hope of the anti-prohibi-
tionists," and it was stated here to-
day by men within tn e Democratic
party that the wet sentiment un-
doubtedly would be capitalized.
Passive Policy Favored.
The plan for holding the wet vote,
as far as it could be learned in
Washington, calls for a policy of
passiveness. Gov. Cox has been i'm
peached as an out and out wet. He
stands sponsor for the liberalization
Of the Volstead law. The vets, all
most to man, regard him as their
standard bearer. Gov. Cox, 1t is be-
lieved, will, without any further fiat
declaration of his position, allow
this sentiment to crystallize in his
behalf, and by his pronouncement
for law enforcement" prevent any
outright affront to the prohibition
lists.
1t was this same policy that was
followed in behalf of the Cox can
didacy at San Francisco. His
spokesman, James E. Campbell, for
merly governor of Ohio, was au-
thority for the following statement:
Gov. Cox does not consider the
Democratic platform the proper
place for treatment of the wet and
dry issue. We do not look upon
prohibition as an issue one way or
another. Gov. Cox has refused to
be used by either faction. His rec
ord is one of law enforcement"
The lesson learned at San Fran
cisco, it was thought here, would be
one adhered to throughout the cam
paign. Intimates of Gov. Cox say
that there is no insincerity in his
position. They uphold his Chicago
interview as his personal conyic-
tions as well as his stand for law
enforcement" but they do not at
tempt to conceal their belief that If
the opportunity affords. Gov. Cox
will work with wet Congress for
alleviation of the drastic alcoholic
provisions of the .Volstead act.
