And yet he has his liabilities as well

Workers in Washington insist that he

New York, Indiana and Illinois, will well

There is a multitude of dark horses
in the Democratic pasture waiting for
the lightning to strike. The list includes:

who is being widely advertised by adj
mirers as exactly the type of man whom
the whole party might support and be
proud Of.
Secretary of State Bainbridge Colby,
whose liberalism on the question of pro-
hibition and whose record of practical
progressivism have made him host of
strong friends. as well as a host of fight
ing opponents.
Former Speaker Champ Clark, whose
advanced age is against him, but who has
powerful friends that have remained loyal
since 1912 and who believe that he would
be strong vote-getter in all doubtful
sections of the country
Former Ambassador to Berlin James "
