ton by saving there Was an effort under way to Hardingize tho conven- ton but up to the present moment no Harding could be found. Some of them foresaw prolonged baIloting and negotiations before an agreement could he reached.
 Despite the growing organization opposed to McAdoo his supporters ex- pressed confidence that he would win before the tenth ballot. They based their assertion on the ground that the opposition was unable to center on any one strong candidate.
 Discount CIark's Chances.
 Champ Clark was particularly dis counted by the McAdoo forces be- cause they thought that under no cir cumstances could Bryan be attracted to him. Rather than oppose McAdoo. the former secretary's friends say. they think eventually Bryan will come to his support if necessary. At least they insist he will not oppose him openly.
 A break to McAdoo. his supporters say, will begin to come after the sec ond or third ballot when the favorite sons have been eliminated.
 McAdoo's friends want to force con- tinuous balloting once it starts. but they expect the Cox adherents will oppose it.
 The auditorium was put to rights again today. the wreckage of yester- days noisy scrimmages having disap- pcared State standards again were in or tderlv array and there was no re- hinder of the frenzied scene that the speech of Burris Jenkins for McAdoo had precipitated.
 Reaction from the scenes of yester- day has thrown the delegates into maze of speculation and gossip on what would he said for the democracy on the League of Nations. the Irish question. the labor plank and the pro- hibition issue.
 Talk on the presidential nominee was mixed with d current of discus sion as to the vice-president. Plat form developments undoubtedly will influence that question but discussion turned toward picking a running mate for McAdoo should he be "drafted' for service.
 Davies Is Mentioned.
 The name of Joseph E. Davies for mer representative in congress from Wisconsin and first chairman of the federal trade commission, was sug- gested for a McAdoo ticket as was that of Secretary Meredith. The name of Victor Murdock of Nebraska, leader in the progressive revolt in congress which opened the way for republican disaster in 1912, also bobbed up.
 The discussion of second place with McAdoo continued to, emphasize the name of Governor Cox, At Cox head

UTAH LAW MAY HELP
AIRPLANE TRAFFIC

SALT LAKE CITY-A law, giving
county commissioners the power to
spend public funds for building air
plane hangers and fields for public
and government use, is to be intro
duced in the next Utah legislature
according to announcement here. The
aeronautical branch of the Salt Lake
commercial club is framing the meas
ure, and if passed, it will be the first
state legislation referring to air traf-
fic to be undertaken in the history of
Utah.
1t is planned that the law will pro-
vide for the expenditure of public
funds for construction of fields and
hangers in much the same manner
that money is now spent for roads.
The law will provide for the creation
of public facilities for airplanes the
same as for automobiles and other
vehicles.

]. H. DYE HAS MUCH
TROUBLE IN THRESHING

Vexatious delays due to weather

prominent farmer and stockman, two
miles east of Moscow, from getting
his threshing done. The thresher
(Draper's outfit) has been on Mr..
Dyes land for almost a week Mr..
Dye had 14O acres of peas and got
55 acres threshed ''between showers"
when rain stopped the work after
another half days run Wednesday.
The peas are said to be fine, yielding
between 35 and 40 bushels per acre,
damaged, despite the many rains
that have fallen on them since they
were cut. The Draper machine has
about two days work yet to finish
the season and is hoping for that
much good weather after the grain
becomes dry enough to thresh. Mr..
Dye is planning big sale of fine
horses and purebred hogs at his ranch

The kidneys do their utmost to free
the blood of this irritating acid, sbut

get sluggish; the eliminative tissues
clog and thus the waste is retained in
the blood to poison the entire system.

eral, state, counties and other local
units, and motor vehicle licenses. OF
this $40, 100000 is for construction
and $4,500,000 for maintenance.
The construction fund is made up of
$3,5OO,OOO from bond issues and
$8,000,000 under the State Trunk
Highway act, which includes the fed
eral aid. The balance is made up OF
state, county and local funds.
To revert to the highway situation
in the state during the past year. it
may be said that Wisconsin has ia
ken the leadership in the Middle
West Emulation is the best com
mendation. Minnesota, Iowa, Him
ois. Michigan and other states have
adopted our road marking system.
A large number of delegations, es-
pecially from Illinois, have visited
Wisconsin during the year to learn
chow we do things"
The press of other states has
words of praise for the Wisconsin
idea in road building and mainten-
ance. Two of the leading farm pa
pers in the Middle West recently sent
staff correspondents to look over the
Wisconsin roads-the Orange judd
Farmer and the Prairie Farmer.
They wrote up glowing stories re-
garding the road work in Wisconsin
and urged that their own state, Him
ois. adopt the Wisconsin system.
Chicago Tribune correspondent, after
touring the states of the .Midle West
gave the palm to Wisconsin and said
that this state was doing what other
states were theoriZing about. The
Chicago Automobile Journal, looking
at things from the tourists point OF
view. said that Wisconsin had be-
come the tourist ground of the Mid
die West because of the good roads
within her borders.
All in all, in the retrospect ana IN
the prospect, Wisconsin's good roads
enthusiasts can feel happy at the end
of the year.

WISCONSIN ROADS
BY F. A. Cannon

Wisconsin roads were never better
than in 1920. The outlook for the
coming year was never brighter than
that before us for 1921.
The figures at hand show that dur
ing the year 1920 total of 623 miles
of earth road were improved by
grading and draining; GA miles Of
gravel roads, macadem, nine tailings
and similar types; 1875 miles of sand
clay surfacing; and 1873 miles of
concrete surfacing. This is a total
of 1851 miles of Wisconsin highways
improved in the form of construction
in the past year-a remarkable rec
ord considering the conditions.
In the matter of maintenance,
1924 miles of the State Trunk High
way system were under patrol main
tenance this year in charge OF 854
patrolmen. There was available for
this purpose for automobile license
fees, $1,750,000. The heavy-traffic
counties added to that $250,O0O ma
king a total of $2,000,00O Several
thousand miles of county trunk high
ways were also handled under patrol
maintenance. There was available
for this 100000 from the automo-
bile license fund, which in many IN
stances, was increased by the coun-
ties from local funds.
There were many hampering con-
ditions in 1920. Labor and mater
ials were high, making prices OF con-
struction in many instances prohib1-
tive. Cars for the transportation or
material were extremely difficult to
secure, and the amount of cement
was limited. The condition OF the
bond market was such that it was
practically impossible to market
bonds for road improvement. This
had a marked effect, especially on
the mileage of concrete surfaclng
constructed Taking it all IN all,
however, and looking at the whole
state. Wisconsin never made better
progress in a single year nor were
her roads found in better condition
For the year 1921 the outlook IS
highly optimistic. The labor ana
TRANSFORMATION condition has I'M
proved. Prices are sliding and never
in history of the state have the var
ious counties provided for sucn Dig
programs of road Improvement. The
counties which have bonded are anx-
ious to push their work.
There will be total of approx
mately s24,OOO,OO0 available for
highway construction and mainten-
ance in 1921 from all sources-fed-
