HOW McoMBs CAPTURED MICHIGAN.

Now what happened? Senator Smith was not allowed
to have to pass single appointment for two years
He became Wilson outcast Mr. Wilson openly, and in
the press supported the primary candidacy of Mr. Will
lam Marbury for the next Senatorial primary against
Senator Smith.
1t was not until then that little things from the White
House trickled Senator Smiths way. Again repeat
that Wilson is subject to two forces-vanty and brute
force maneuvre.
Michigan, quite naturally, expected to be for Har
mon, being contiguous State. Mr. Wood the National
Committeeman, and a director somewhat in Michigan
and his State associates decided that they would go the
convention without endorsing any We made pretty
brisk contest in Michigan and got few votes However,
the whole delegation not entirely against u.s. except
indirectly That because of attack made on Mr..
Wood by young man whom I unfortunately sent into
Michigan.
Immediately sent letter of apology to Mr. Wood.
Coming from me- the apology did, it smoothed over the
situation.
I remember early Sunday morning of the Baltimore
Convention going to Mr. Wood at his apartment and cover

had ambition personally but that Mr. Wilson'S reputa

REEDS HELP AND WILSON'S POOR Return

When it all over the Democrats were lined up
unanimously for the choice They had not won in twenty
years more. They had been compelled to take up
"sm" after 'ism under the unquestoned leadership of
Bryan They did not know great deal about Wilson's
mind, but they had read much of him and were en-
thusiastic for a victory.
Senator James A. Reed of Missouri was the ablest sup
porter that Mr. Clark had and the most bitter opponent of
Governor Wilson before and at the convention I felt
that if took Reed would get one of the most val
liable assets possible Finally, with much persuasion,
induced Wilson to accept Reed.
