HIS LIFE STORY

had seen to it that the dark
horse" would be Davis. Enough
agreements had been made to insure
his nomination on the forty-fifth
ballot.
! But what Robert Burns said about
the best laid plans of mice and men
is particularly true at political con-
ventions. On the thirty eighth bal
/ lot Attorney General A. Mitchell
| Palmer withdrew from the race, and
the deadlock was broken. The move
ment for Governor Cox of Ohio start
ed slowly TO gain impetus. Cox
went over in a landslide on the
forty-fourth. There wasn't any
forty-fifth.
Davis. as a future presidential
possibility, was saved.
His friends started boosting him
( for the 1924 Democratic presidential
candidacy almost as soon as the
1920 presidential race was over.
Davis. having returned to private
life. took the same attitude toward
the new boom" that he took prior
/ TO the San Francisco meeting If
I the Democrats wanted to nominate
/ him-all well and good. If they
didn't-equally we'll and good. He
didn't intend to do anything about
/ it, one way or another.
But his West Virginia friends
came to New York before the CON
vention opened and started a very
/ thriving Davis boom.
The fact that Davis was member
Of a Wall Street firm of corporation
attorneys began to get wide pub
/ licity. The fact that this firm had
among its clients both Standard Oil
and the House OF Morgan was thor
oughly broadcast.
( The Davis boom started waning
and the West Virginians started
worrying. They began to realize
they had overplayed Davis safeness
and sanity. Immediately they start
ed explaining that all they had
meant TO imply was that he was a
safe and sane Progressive.
! Tom Taggart, Indiana boss. played
a waiting game, confident the con
vention would sooner or later sim
mer down TO Il fight between Davis
and his man, Senator Ralston.
This was the situation when the
| onvention-longest bitterest, hard
! est fought. most uncertain and most
! cOlOrful in party history-opened in
! Madison Square Garden on June "a
Senator Pat Harrison. orator from
Mississippi. made the keynote
/ speech. In an address full to over
/ flowing of humor. satire and burn
/ ing invective, he called on the CON
vention 10 establish clean govern
ment as the outstanding campaign
! issue.
Harrison pointed out that it was
/ the Democratic party's duty TO re-
1 store integrity in public office. rig
idly enforce the law, reduce trans
/ portauon charges, readjust tariff
rates. bare campaign bribery. punish
election frauds, relieve agriculture cy
restoring the purchasing power Of
the farmers dollar, adopt a prog

nize Americas obligations 10 the

Devils Lake, n. d. June 20.-For
the first time women sat as voting
members of the Republican national
committee and exercised IN every
way the functions exercised by ma
tional committeeman at the first
meeting of the national committee
last Friday. Mrs. Fred +. Mann, ST.,
Of Devils Lake, newly elected nation

vas present at the meeting and cX-
ercised her vote on the problems
brought before the meeting namely:
The seating of the alaska delegation
and the decision of which faction or
Porto Rico should be seated in the
next convention.
'The high type of citizenship that
prevailed among the delegates, and
the standing unanimously together
of each delegation for the good OF
The party-solid for Coolidge was
the most striking impression | had
from my first national convention,
said Mrs. Mann on her return home
last night.
"Thcre are great issues facing
the American people in tins cleo
tion,' she said. 1T was time for
those who stand by the traditions
o. the republic to get together We
were expressing the faith that Is
in us, agreeing upon the main IS
sues before the country. 1t was II
time Of dedication to great cause.
Example of Unity
"The Cleveland convention was al
so great example of the unity OF
America" observed Mrs. Mann. ut
differences of factions were settled
by committee action for the common
good of the party. 1t tells the story
OF the nations progress. 1t was a
wonderful convention.
''The tragedy to me twas that our
delegation was supposed to be Re
publican. to stand for the things
that the Republican party stands for
and those, of the delegation who held
out against Coolidge, proved by the
Kisses of the convention, the attacks
of the newspapers and the genera
attitude of the Republicans throug

real Republicans"
