Deadlocks, Recesses and the
Possibility of Adjournment
Until Monday, Are Incidents
Of San Francisco Gathering.
Especial TO the Ne~s)

SAN FRANCISCO. July 3.--No
candidate had been nominated ~ the
Democratic convention at midnight
last night AFTER the twentieth bal
loi. and I was apparent that
If the party was 10 maintain its
record for no Sunday sessions an ad-
,vurnment until Monlny would te

dark horse we're futile and Cox,
Nj Adoo AMI Palmer continued to
see-sas thea. strength through the
noisy session.
Sixteen ballots had been taken by
the Democratic convention IN the
eight hours session ending at S
o'clock, when a recess until eight
o'clock was ordered, despite the OPP
position of the Cox forces.
From tho thirteenth ballot Cox de-
veloped strength at the expense of
Palmer. while the McAdoo forces
held pretty steady. When the con-
vention recesses it was in the middle
of a seemingly hopeless deadlock
and there was renewal of dark
horse talk with ambassador Davis,
who had shown gains on the final
ballots before adjournment as the
favorite. Neither of the leaders was
anywhere near TO the required two
thirds vote and Cox was the nearest
to a majority with 455is votes.
The recess was featured by fran
tic efforts on the part of the anti
Cox managers to stop his progress.
Palmer himself said that McAdoo was
beaten and Cox also said he had
hopes that he might himself be nom-
mated, but his supporters we're dis
couraged.
Administration leaders in coEven-
tion declared that it could not DO
Cox, indicating determined effort
on tho part of the McAdoo following
to eliminate the Ohio governor.
Before the convention reassembled
there was a feeling that break one
way or another was imminent. Some
leaders predicted the nomination of
Davis about the twentieth ballot.
Prospects for an all-night session
were excellent, with chance OF ad-
journment until Monday.
All managers. however. were try
ing TO prevent any such overlapping
of the conventions proceedings.
Repeated efforts to get the White
House lined up for compromise
candidate were futile. Word from
Washington was that Wilson had
stuck to his hands off policies. The
McAdoo followers in convention sun
we're hopeful of his nomination, hat

When the convention reassembleo

Democrats, the plank for Irish rec

tions of Irish sympathizers, and sew

McAdoo, whom it was intended to
keep in the rear of the procession
until the other candidates had run a
heat or two, was forced to set the
pace ut an early stage in the ballot
ing. thus giving Cox and Palmer an
advantage that had been sought from
the first. The defeating of the moist
plank offered by Bourke Cochran of
New York had the effect Of throwing
a shadow on the enthusiasm of Gov
ernor Cox.
Senator Glass assumed supreme
command OF the administration
forces, backing McAdoo. The anti
administration forces picked on Da-
Wis as IL as asserted that ne Wouio
draw more administration strength
from McAdoo than any other eligible.
Vice President Marshall was anoth-

to preyent McAdoo from stampeding
the convention.
Early In the game 1t was declared
that Bryan had put himself In the
position to attract attention as q pos
sibility for a fourth nomination in
case the anti-administration forces
in their effort ITO defeat M>Adoo
would turn their attention to him.
Bryan strongly opposed Governor
Cox, attacking him on the grounds
that he was side partner of the
liquor interests.

LIGHT ON LEAGUE

EVIDENCE tending to establish the danger of the present covenant
4 of the league of nations grows stronger as more facts are brought
=" to light.
Senator Spencer, whose veracity was questioned by President
Wilson, has emerged from the controversy with his position more
firmly established.
He has forced out stenographic reports of what President VIII
son said in plenary session in the pence conference and it establishes
that the president did promise military aid to the Rumanians.
Every new fact of Mr.. Wilson's dealing in Paris makes clearer
the necessity of protecting our country. 1t emphasizes that this coun-
try must not adopt the league Of nations covenant as Mr.. Wilson
wishes us to do, and as Mr.. Cox undoubtedly will strive to have a dem
ocratic congress do if the people do not see that he does not have the
chance.
Wilson has never said that he would accept reservations to the
league in line with the demands to protect this country. The obliga-
tons he would impose upon this country are the serious vice OF the
instrument and seriously threaten the very future of the country.
The league never ought to be ratified without such American
safeguarding reservations as absolutely protect our country from the
menace which exists in article ten.
Many wars are still raging in Europe. Wilson gave the Ruman-
ians to understand that if America ratified the league that country
could expect that we would send out troops and our navy 5000 miles
across the sea to protect her against any ACKNOWLEDGEMENT.
II one nation may expect such support all nations will.
Are we ready to undertake to send more troops overseas to join
our forces which are still in 'GcrmanyG
The solemn referendum will decide.

Taxpayer League
Making a Survey
Of State Land Office

The Taxpayers association of New
Mexico is at present engaged In maxi
ing a survey Of the state land office
with a view to furnishing the special
revenue commission with a report as
to the methods OF accounting. the
cost of administration, the practice
pursued in the handling OF leases and
sales and thc general policy OF the
office f. administering the 100000
acres entrusted TO the state for the
benefit OF its schools and other insti-
buttons.
In undertaking this work the aim
Is to compile such Information as
will enable the legislature to deter
mine as to the wisest provisions for
securing the greatest benefit for the
state and its institutions. The nves-
tigntion il not intended as a mere
audit but rather such a survey ms will
lead to the most comprehensive con
s~lderation of the general policy and
present practicer II is clear that In
such a survey cooperation is inper-
ativc not only on the part Of the
commissioner and his assistants, but
also on the part OF those who lease
and buy land from the state. and on
the part Of those whose knowledge
enables them to give reliable infor-
nation as to particular tr%ansactions
It is urged. therefore, that all who
arc interested will place their infor-
nation and suggestions at the dis
iiosal of tbs Special Revenue COM
mission. OF which Mr.. H.. T.. Hager-
