In the Republican national conven-
tions for forty years, with the excep
tion of two, the Pennsylvania dclega-
tion has been the subservicnt instru-
ment of politicians; its solid vote could
be pledged in advance, often long be-
fore the delegates were chosen or the
date Of their selection fixed. In 1912
the Progressive uprising gave Roose-
velt ninetenths of the delegates, de-
spite the bosses; and last week the
delegation from this state acted with
an independence which indicated a
changed and changing party character.
Every Republican should be gratitiod
by the record made
Activities Of King
They had been elected without in
structons, but, ignoring known wishes,
pledged their support to the candi-
dacy of Governor Sproul, despite his
Chicago their status had been grossly
misrepresented and they were cata-
lcgued as the political property of Sen
ator Penrosc, to be used in any moves
he might dictate. Moreover, the Sproul
candidacy had been so belittled that
it was not regarded seriously This
condition was due largely to the ac-
tivities Of John I. King, dcposed ma
tional committeeman from Connecti-
cut, who had ostcEtatiously announced
that he held a proxy for Penrose and
would represent Pennsylvania in the
deliberations of the committee 1t was
due also in part to Senator Watson
the shifty reactonary leader from In
diana, who was Penrosc's first choice
for the Presidential nomination.
Governor Sproul, who had taker
rooms at a prominent hotel but who
had studiously kept himself in the
background, almost instantly became
figure of outstanding interest tc
newspaper men, party leaders and dele
gates. AS early as Tuesday. the day
of the opening session, his name
hummed through every conversation OF
the outlook and was seriously discussed
1 by metropolitan newspapers as the heac
of the second choice candidates.

Finally the leading candidates be
came so perturbed by the rising pres
tige of the, Governor that they sent
emissaries to him to learn his plan
OF campaign. He told these inquirers
frankly that he was in no sense +
contender in the leading group, and
that he believed free field should be
left to Wood and Lowden and johnson
to demonstrate their strength, since
they had submitted their candidates.
at the primaries He would not seek
to get delegate from any one of ths5s
men, he said, unless and until Il <S,
less deadlock had developed.
The loyalty and zeal with which the
Pennsylvania delegates supported the
Governor was most striking. Repre-
scatatives of some of the biggest bust
ness interests in the state, some O,
them delegates, worked for him witt
stimulating carncstness. Those who
had been elected upon declurat or
for Wood as second choice stooc
stanchly by Snroul and, although mott
fed by tho Governor that he woulc
release any delegate to Wood on re
quest, they did not shift until he hac
released the entire delegation.

You have heard of men who have

come universally used. and yet these
men have died in poverty, while an
other has made millions from their
work.
There are two newsboys who make
practice of going to the union sta
ton In the afternoon to sell their
papers. One OF them Is just a little
fellow. but ne has an eye for bust
ness. II happens that they both have
the same papers to sell, and the older
one calls out the names of the papers
he has, but before ne can get to his

voice. Tive got the same thing. I've

other one does all the work and adj

The case Is similar to that OF a new
brakeman on a passenger run, who
was too lazy to learn the names Of
the stations, so the conductor was
helping him out by calling the name
of the towns at one end of the car,
and the new brakeman was supposed
to repeat the name at the other end.
The train came to a little station and
the conductor stuck his head thru the
door Of the car and called out
'wumphtoh." The brakeman, like
the passengers. could not understand
the name Of the town. but the brake
man was too lazy TO take the time
to find out, so he stretched, yawned
and yelled Same in this end. same
