Work on the bond roads has been
closed down in the third district for
some time. 1t is now finished in the
second, and it will be finished in the
first district about July 10. There
is force of nineteen dump wagons
working on the Shelley-Taylor road.
The work on the road thru VOL
VERNE and over the range to Willow
creek is finished, great numbers of
sheep have trailed over it, tumbling
rocks down into the dugroad, and
now a man is raking the rocks out
over the bank and the commission
ers are looking for another route to
trail the sheep over to save the
road. They think they will route
them via Cedar hollow.

Administration Works
Swiftly to Perfect
Organization
(Ey Universal ServIce)

CONVENTION HALL SAN FRAN
CISCO.-The administration steam
roller moved with swift precision
Tuesday in getting the Democratic
convention permanently organized
and in carryingson all the necessary
business preliminary to the adoption
of the platform and the naming of
the ticket
Everything scheduled by the party
leaders went thru as planned, in
Guiding the refusal to permit Sena-
tor James A. Read of Missouri to
have the seat in the convention to
which he was elected by the Fifth
District of his state The majority
against seating Reed was so over
whelming in view of the pleadings
of the Wilson men to administer
punishment to the Missouri senator
because of his opposition to the presi-
dent that a count of the vote was
not necessary. Chairman Cummings
declared it unanimous.
The second days session, because
of the nature of the business it had
to do, was perfunctory and almost
lfeless. There was little enthusiasm
and not a single demonstration to
compare with these which started off
the gathering Monday with such q
blare and bang.
The principal speech of the day
was that by Joseph 7. Robinson, OF
Arkansas after he had been installed
as permanent chairman. Robinson
is not an orator and altho he lam
basted the Republican platform in
unmeasured terms, and harshly
criticized everything that the Repub-
licans have done and are doing, he
failed to arouse any great amount of
enthusiasm. His effort lacked the
punch and force needed to bring the
delegates to their feet with real
oldfashioned Democratic cher.
The Republicans do these things
better. They permitted Senator
Lodge to have both the temporary
and permanent chairships, thereby
saving the delegates from the tedium
of having to listen to more than one
speech. But with Cummings deliv-
ering one keynote speech Monday
as temporary chairman, and Robin
son coming along Tuesday with an
other, the convention got abot as
much as it could stand in the way Of
keynote utterances. What they
want now is action. 1t will come
when the platform is submitted and
when the candidates are named.

Wilson Is Only
Concerned With
Peace Treaty
(By Universal Service)

WASHINGTON. President
Wilson is interested in only one
question before the Democratic
national convention-the peace
treaty, according to John A. Will
son of Franklin, Pa, cousin of
the president, who visited the
White House Tuesday.
"Woodrow has never mentioned
a word about candidates." said
Mr.. Wilson. I'm sure he has no
choice. He is for the treaty OF
peace and beyond that has not
the slightest interest in the can
didates."
