be nominated only as Mr.. Harding was
at Chicago. The candidate finally
chosen here after the elimination Of
Palmer and Cox can only be chosen as
" result Of stampede or as result
Of support from the Administration or
as result Of a combination of state
leaders.
Stampedes are unlikely. President
Wilson is probably opposed to Mr.. Nc.
Adoo's nomination, but even IL he were
not he could not aid Mr.. McAdoo. He
could not contribute to the choice Of
his own son in law. and the group of
states bosses. representing New York,
Pennsylvania, Indiana, Minnesota,
Michigan, Iowa und Illinois, are bitterly
opposed to Mr.. McAdoo's nomination.
Thus on analysis Mr. McAdoo's chances
seem very slim. OF the two forces
which may initiate movement toward
a nomination, one Is definitely hostile,
the other Is probably hostile and Ger
tainly il friendly, cannot openly render
aid.
Mr.. McAdoo may perhaps have the
support Of Mr.. Bryan in the early
stages of the convention. The peerless
leader will probably try to use Mr..
McAdoo to beat Governor Cox. just
as-thc Republican senators at Chicago
used Governor Lowden to beat General
Wood. But Mr.. Bryan, even il he
really desired Mr.. McAdoo's nomina-
ton, is not strong enough to bring it
about.
Cox People Would Dodge
The Cox people see the danger to
their candidate III fight upon a wet
or dry plank upon the convention floor.
and the probable defeat Of the wet pro-
posal. Therefore. their hope is that
the convention will dodge the booze
issue, adopting meaningless plank and
running a wet candidate upon it. This
should so obviously be the tactics of
the vets that it is likely that the fight
upon booze will be avoided and the
real fight of Bryan and his followers
will be to prevent the naming of Gov
Crnor Cox or any other wet candidate.
The Ohio governor will probably not
only have the drys against him, but
also the administration forces. The
naming of Cox would shift the issue
away from the League of Nations to
the Volstead act. This Mr.. Wilson will
not readily consent to. The drys and
the administration men will probably
veto Cox.
Beyond what this analysis discloscs.
no one knows anything. No one is
surely in control. No one can even
guess who will be nominated. No one
can tell what Mr.. Wilson will do when
the three leading candidates appear to
be eliminated. No one can tell whore
the state bosses will turn when it is
clear that Cox cannot be nominated

PINK BOIL WORM INVADEs
COTTON BELT.

The pink boil worm, q worse enemy
Of cotton than the boil weevil, has ad.
vanced from Mexico through tho Cot
ton Belt ss far as Louisiana.
The United States Department Of
Agriculture has sounded q cry OF
warning, declaring that very serious
situation exists which calls for the
closest cooperation between states and
the government agencies that are
soeking to exterminate the pest. A
special appropriation has been asked
Of congress.
The appearance Of this dreaded cot
ton enemy In Louisiana was q great
surprise. Those who were working
for its eradication thought that they
had so confined It to q narrow strip In
'sxas that 1t would be On easy measure
to kill 1t by establishing q non-cottou
some. A much larger territory must
now be watched and plans are on foot
to destroy the growing cotton crops
where W. It appears, destroying at the
same time the unmatched eggs and the
worms.
