MANY. "FAV0RITE SONS"
BY G. GOULD LINCOLN.


NEW YORK, June 3o.-Early bal
lots in the Democratic national con-
vention today emphasize the cleavage
between the west and middle west
on one hand, and the east on the
other. The progressive branch of
the party in the west which has been
demanding a progressive cast their
votes for McAdoo. who has been
recognized as the leading progress
sive.
A glance at the list of states
which voted solidly for McAdoo on
these, ballots-some, 1t is true under
the unit rule-shows how the line
has been drawn. Those states which
voted for McAdoo included Arizona,
vadA, New Mexico, North Dakota,
Oklahoma. Oregon, South Dakota,
Texas. Utah and Washington. There
were some of the western states who
cast their votes for "favorite sons"
and for that reason excluded McAdoo
from their votes, like Nebraska,
which voted solidly for Gov. Bryan
of that state: Wyoming, which voted
oming: Kansas. which voted for Gov.
Jonathan M. Davis; Michigan. which
voted for Senator Ferris; Colorado,
which voted for Gov. Sweet.
Smith Backed by Many.
In some of the middle western and
western states McAdoo received a
partial vote, as in the case Of Illinois,
where he had IL votes, Wisconsin, g.
Minnesota, 5. and Montana. In these
states. the wet and dry" question
initiated against McAdoo to a GER
tain extent, it is said, and Gov. Smith
Of New York, regarded as the hope
of the vets, received the major share
Of their votes.
The early ballots showed the south
ern states voting largely for McAdoo
also. though many of them had IA
vorite sons to put forward, like I'm
Mississippi, Glass in Virginia. Johr
w. Davis in West Virginia, Richie
in Maryland and Robinson in
Arkansas.

One Fist Fight.
The old fight in Missouri between
the faction of the party supporting
Senator Jim Reed and that opposing
him burst out again on the floor OF
the convention. The state conven.
| ton instructed the delegates to vote
for McAdoo, but some of the dele.
gates, strong Reed men, questioned
the unit rule and only the ruling OF
the presiding officer, Senator Walsh
of Montana, settled the matter in
favor of the unit rule and McAdoo
One fist fight occurred. A charge
was made by the Reed supporters
| that McAdoo money had flooded the
state. Joe B. Shannon of Kansas
| City made the charge. AfterwarG
Charles NJ. Hay, a McAdoo delegate
walked up to Shannon and said with
an oath, 'If you say l got any Nc.
Adoo money, you are liar" Shan
non struck him in the face. The
! police rushed in and separated them
