Americus times-recorder., 1920-06-07
BY EDWARD M. THIERRY
N. E. A. Staff Correspondent


CHICAGO, June Party labels
do not stick as well as they used to.
A booster for the Committee Of
ass third party idea, browsing along
Presidential alley was Mortified to
find that Charles Wylie Mcclure, of
Atlanta, strong third party expon-
ent at the Forty Fighters st. Louis
conference last December, has turned
up in Chicago heading Wood del
egation.
Troubles keep piling up for Repub-
lican National Committeeman.
They're being run ragged these
days. Contesting delegates talk them
to death in the Supreme Court"
room down at the Coliseum, and af-
ter hours in hotel lobbies.
Indignant women are planning to
picket the convention as final prod
to put over a suffrage ratification
plank.
Irish patriots are demanding recog-
nition-and drys are buttonholing
committeeman demanding bone-dry
plank.
And now delegation of 10 horny
handed farmers have arrived to tell
their agricultural troubles to the COM
mittee.
Charlie Barrett Democrat by pol
itics, Georgia delegate-at-large to
San Francisco) and farmer by occu-
patton, is at the head of the farmer
delegation. He's at the head of the
movement of organized farmers in
the South and he plans to tell the G.
0. P. committee that if the big po-
litical parties don't do something to
help the farmers We'll all be scratch
ing vainly for food one of these days.
Profane disgust, rather than down
heartedness, consume Lowden sup
porters over the $2,500-a-delegate
revelation of the pre-convention slush
fund probe.
"Why pick on Lowden for the Mis-
Americus times-recorder., 1920-06-07

l,OOO cases-guaranteed bonded-he
was willing to sell at $110 case. De-
llvered, too-for a.small extra charge
of 81 case.
A penitentiary warden and two real
sheriffs-not the movie kind, but the
real goods-are in Chicago whooping
things up forfJohnson.
mo, we amt going to shoot up
the convention" said Sheriff Mike
Sheehan, "but me and Sheriff Bob
Veale came all the way from Califor-
MIA to help put Hiram over-if we
have to organize a posse to chase out
the coyotes who don't see things like
we do"
The old G. o. P. dope kettle got
all stirred up and dripped over the
edges when Colonel Theodore Roose-
velt, Jr., blew into town.
Delegates started at him and re-
porters trailed him as he dashed in
and out of Wood, johnson and Low
den campaign headquarters and final
ly cornered Chairman Will Hays for
a friendly chat.
"Sompin's up sureT breathed a
delegate excitedly.
Maybe Teddy Juniors going to
be dark horse Gosh! with name
like that. Roosevelt for President!
He'll sweep the convention"
The tip spread. Everybody was
talking about it. Enthusiasm grew.
And then some unimaginative sta
tistical wizard came along and spoiled
everything. The bubble burst
"Shucksp' said the kill-joy, "the
boys only 93l Don't you birds know
a mans gotta be 35 to be Presi-
dent?''
"I don't know whether the Senate
will investigate me or not" said
woman voter, "but I'm going to vote
for Hiram and I'll accept poppy,

their scrapping clothes on. Wages are
$40 a day, enough to make them deaf
to political Establishments. Ryan also
has 400 ushers under his command.
Thayer has 1000 assistant SER
geants-at-arms. They'll try to help
the chairman's gavel mean something.
No seats for these tireless heroes.

Here are the latest market quota
tions on convention bottle booze:
Friendly whiskey, one pint, $7.5C
Bellhop whiskey, one pint $40 to
$40.
Friendly" whiskey is the kind you
get by having friend who knows
somebody who knows somebody else
who knows where to buy it at bargain
rates. It's cheaper, but scarcer.
"Bellhop" whiskey isn't as good.
It's sold largely to strangers. Just
ring the bell and ask the bellhop, and
if he happens to be the right kind of
bellhop he'll get the stuff. Prices
depend on what the middleman has to
pay. They figure on 100 per cent com
mission.
Oh, yes, it can be had in large
quantities, too-anything up to 1000

coffee and sandwiches at the Colise-
UNI.
The unopposed vice-presidential
candidate, Samuel Adams, has invent
ed scheme for cutting down the
high cost of getting nominated.
Adams has more ancestors and rel
atives than any man alive, it's said.
His favorite campaign literature
shows his smiling countenance en-
tirely surrounded by fine old wood
cuts of famous Adamses of the hoary
past.
Instead Of circularizing voters at
General Wood estimate of five cents
per copy, he just makes deal with
the hotel news agents-and has his
ancestral circular delivered at every
