AFRAID TO VOTE FOR LIoU0F
BY WILLIAM PHILIP SIMMS,
(Internatienal News Servfce.)

The platform Of the Democratic
party at San Francisco, it was
learned today, will in all probability
make no mention in any way OF
prohibition, despite prevalent belief
to the contrary.
For the past two months the dis
tinct impression has been created
that the Democrats, II not the Re-
publicans, would include a wet"
plank in their party platform, or
at least make it plain, in profes-
sion Of faith, that they favor a GER
tain degree of "dampness" in the
desert. This, it now appears, is
not to be.
Threaten DRY" Plank.
According to the well-informed
something has happened. What that
something was, as nearly as can be
made out, was this:
The leaders of the prohibition move
ment have quietly let the edict go
forth that II any serious attempt is
! made on the floor of the convention to
force a wet plank into the partys
platform, they stand prepared to in
sist upon, and secure precisely the
opposite, a plank dryer than the pro-
l~ssDs9f-tone.lS ",''ea' 's"l"--%'s''r' ''-''->'
The "wets," It Is said Were at first
inclined to be sceptical. but In some
of the State conventions the "drys'
quietly demonstrated their power in
such positive manner that the "wets''
were glad to compromise and omit
any reference to drink, one way or
another.
The national CONVENTIONS, it is
pointed out, will be nothing more
nor less than a double Congress, so
far as complexion is concerned. And
Congress would undoubtedly vote

BORELLA BEATS
CARLSON FOR
SECOND Time
Newport Champion Gives
Two Hours of Wonder
, full Wrestling

Charles &. Borella, welter-weight
champion wrestler Of. Vermont and
enc of the most promising young mon
in the game today, demonstrated be
fore $50 enthusiastic sport fans at
School Hall, Newport, Thursday eve
ming, that he already is a past master
in the arr Of working the toe hold
with deadly effect. The victim of Be-
rella's clever use of this hold last
night was John Carlson, middle
weight champion of Ohio, who halls
from Youngstown. The occasion was
a return match of these two men, the
Newport lad having defeated the
Westerner in their first match at
Pastime Hall about mcnth ago.
Borella won the first fall in 32
minutes with the toe hold. The sec
ond fall went TO Carlson, who pinned
the local athletes shoulders to the
mat in 10 minutes with perfect body
scissors, and Borella won the third
fall and the match in As minutes with
q double toe hold. The third fall was
contested longer than any other one
period since Borella defeated Harry
Mammas of Burlington in School
Hall last October. At that time it
took Borella 65 minutes to win the
last fall from the heavy Greek. Bo-
rella has such an enormous surplus
supply of wind and grit that there Is
no limit to tn length Of time he
would be able to stay on the mat IN
one period.
Last nights match was not quite
so fast as the battle at Pastlme Hall
last Friday evening, when Borella was
beaten by Jack Morrow ofLeominster,
Mass, but the contest was full of &C
ton from start to finish. Carlson com
planned of being i'll, saying that he
ing from gas on his stom-
ach. This undoubtedly caused him to
slow up somewhat, but from the still
fight he put up, a close observer
would never believe that he was a sicl
man. He seemed to be equally as fun
Of fight as his younger and hghteE
opponent and his strength was APP
parently superior. But with all his
added power he found his hands full
every minute of the match.
In the preliminaries Murray threw
Cheney twice in twenty minutes, the
first time VII, a body scissors and
the second with a half Nelson. Chen
ey put up a good battle but was no.
, match for Murray.
