DEMOCRATS MET SATURDAY
Hold Convention to Select Delegates
to State and Judicial Conventions

The democrats of Audubon county
met at the court house at eleven
o'clock Saturday morning but adj
journed to meet at one o'clock. Geo.

of the city so the convention was

man and M. M. Carpenter, secretary.
The committee on credentials re-
ported that several of the townships
were not represented. The follow
ing resolution was adopted:

ROOSEVELT is NAMED
Fifth Cousin of Col. Roosevelt Named
by Democrats for Vice-President

Franklin d. Roosevelt of New York
assistant secretary of the navy, was
nominated for the vice presidency by
the democratic convention late Tues
day afternoon after seven other
men whose names had been placed
in nomination had withdrawn. The
convention adjourned almost imme-
diately after at 1929.
The nomination of Roosevelt was
made by reclamation when David R.
Francis of Missouri asked unani-
nous consent to suspension of the
this way. There was a loud cheer,
the band played, and Gov. Cox's
running mate had been chosen.
The adjournment ended eight
greulling days. of the convention,
which only was able to agree on the
presidential nominee after forty-four
ballots.
Not until after the thirty-eighth
ballot, when Attorney General Pa'-
nier withdrew from the race, was
there any sign of a break in the
deadlock that held the convention
battling until that time futile bat
tie of ballots over Cox, Palmer and
McAdoo. Cox's gain on the next six
ballots was rapid and the defeat of
the administration and it's candidate,
McAdoo, came by reclamation on
the forty-fourth ballot.
Before adjournment Homer S.
Cummings took the platform and
declared that the proceedings of the
convention had filled the democrats
with confidence.
Roosevelt left the convention hall
just as he was nominated and was
Informed of his nomination as he
stepped into a cab.
He dictated a statement which
reads:
"The convention carried out my
first prophecy that it would be I'M
bossed and a true expression of the
spirit Of democracy. That spirit
will be carried out through the
campaign" y.
Senator Robinson was appointed
chairman of the committee to notify
Governor Cox of his nomination and
Homer s. Cummings was made the
chairman of similar committee to
notify Roosevelt, as one of the last
acts of the convention.
The delegates seemed rather
stunned by the suddenness of the
nomination. There were cries for
ROOSEVELT" but he had gone.

Hansen.
The flag is 6x6 u feet, we'll made

DELEGATES NOT INSTRUCTED

Only a comparatively small per-
cent of the 1912 delegates to the
state convention on July goth were
instructed on governor by their
county conventions. This is shown
by the reports from considerable
number of counties.
There are far more delegations
which are split in favor of two can
didates for governor then there are
instructed for any one man. The
home counties of candidates for
state office instructed for or indors-
ed their fayorite sons. But the re-
turns on the whole show that there
will be a "hot time" when it comes
to the nominations in view of the
fact that the convention must nomi-
nate governor, lieutenant governor,
auditor, attorney general and rail-
road commissioner.
Lieutenant Governor Moore is
claiming a majority vote for govern
or on the first ballot. Kendall is
also claiming a good vote, with
Deems and Havner following in
about the order in which they finish
ed in the primary. C
