An Elaborate Responsibility.
'It's busy life" remarked the man
who was waving palm leaf fan.
'How have you been occupying your
selm?''
"Voting. It's everybody's duty to
vote. In addition to voting for state,
county and town officers, I voted in
the primaries, got elected as dele
gate and voted over and over in the
convention. OF course, I'm going to
vote in the fall election, and l only
hope they'll let me round out my
record by putting me in the electoral
college,"

REPUBLICANS TO
BE CHALLENGED
BY DEMOCRATS

CHICAGO, June 11.-Many of the
most important p1anks of the Re-
publican platform are believed GER
tain to bring a direct challenge from
the Democrats in their convention
at San Francisco. The Republican
platform was adopted by the conven-
ton last evening.
Democrats, Judging by their talk in
congress, are certain to meet with
bitter denounciation the claims of the
Republican platform that the last ses-
sion of the national legislature has a
praiseworthy record. They probably
ton of the president that congress
failed to enact and seek to place the
blame for present conditions to fail
ure.
The hand of the old guard seems
to be apparent to some extent, In
the Republican platform, and in re-
ply to this the Democrats probably
will make an appeal to labor, claim
ing the Republicans are controlled
by. reactionary business interests.
Another Democratic attack prob
section Of the railroad act, which was
bitterly opposed by the minority, but
which was highly praised several
times during the convention.
A vigorous defense Of the Demo-
cratic conduct of financial affairs is
said to meet Republican attacks on
the direction Of the federal reserve
system. The high cost of living issue
will be kicked back and forth in true
political fashion, it now seems. 9 .
The League of Nations issue is not
very clearly defined in the Republic
will depend on the character of the
nominee, it was explained.

SPA INDEMNITY
MEETING MAY
BE CALLED OFF

LONDON, June. 11.-Possibility of
the abandonment of the Spa confer
ence between representatives of the
allied governments and Germany is
being discussed in European CAPT.
tails.
The success Of the indepndent So
cia1ists and the conservatives in the
German elections leads to the belief
in France that Germany is less than
ever inclined to carry out the treaty.
This belief, with the prospect that
Giovanni Giolitti, former italian pre-
mier, will form new ministry in
that country is said to have moved
Premier Millerand, of France, to OPP
pose any further yielding on the
question of the German indemnity,
such as might be expected to result
from the Spa meeting. 1t is recalled
that Signor Giolitti opposed Italy's
entrance into the war. and 1T is said
his foreign policy includes resump-
ton of full relations with Germany.
Premier Millerand is said to feel he
might hazard his own position if the
Spa conference were held, and belief
is expressed here that Signor Giolitti
may decline to attend the meeting.

MONTREAL, Quebec. June IL
President Samua1 Gompers, of the
American Federation of Labor, in a

Mr. .Gompers referred especially to
that part of the plank indorsing set
Element of strikes in public utilities

Esch-Cummins transportation act.
The administration of the conserv-
alive wing of the American Fedora
ton of Labor was threatened here to-
day by the progressive element. The
Progressives, headed by James Dun
can, Of Seattle, who yesterday over
threw two major reports of the or
ganization committee, were prepared
to again contest the Gomper's forces
for power.
Union leaders declared that the
Progressives, in getting the annual
convention to lay the foundation for
a food distributing and producing
department yesterday, had shown the
most formidable power in years.
They conceded, however, that with
President Gompers back in the chair
today the Conservatives would gain
control Of the situation.
The progressive element was plan
ming today to fight for the radical
recommendations for the relief of
the workers. They also seek the re-
lease of political prisoners, lifting of
Russian blockade, recognition of
the Russian blockade, recognition of
declaration against the League of
Nations: They will, however, sup
port the Irish resolutions.
Progressive leaders said they
would contest any mild recommends

committees on the executive council
that have to do with the high cost
of living, profiteering and other eco
