 Weew, trying to move heaven and earth, promised Lane anw a. mount of money for his campaign. Colonel Mccormack of the Chi cago Tribune led the Lincoln move- ment. His strategists said he was O good Seward man and worked
 on the Seward forces to the end that they might not refuse to take Lincoln if Seward failed.
 Also, while the Seward men were paradlng, they packed the hal witm Illinois shouters 50 that only Sew ards delegates could get in from the street. There was an enor- nous Seward demonstration, how ever. surpassed in noise only by Lincoln's.

The greatest president maker of them all was ThurlOw Weed Of Albany, shown i'm upper right, who placed five men in the White OHusc. But when Weed went to Chicago in 1880 backing William H. Seward, New YOrk's governor, shown below him at right, he lost to supporters of Abraham Lincoln, who was nominated In the famous Wigwam, shown in old print above.
 vention in 1856 supported the nomination of John c. Fremont, being convinced that the party couldn't win on it's first tryout and holding his friend Seward for 1860.
 Then began to lay the ground work for Seward. He became his campaign manager and worked un- ceasingly, throwing his whole heart into the job. He went to Chicago with the assurance of victory. There was an enormous popular sentiment for Seward.
 Blunt a mbination of events and circumstance turned the tide at the convention itself. First, and perhaps worst, Horace Greeley de- clared against Seward. Greeley took that opportunity to vent his spleen because Seward had never helped him obtain a public office.
 Greeiley's desertion, after 20 years in which he and the New York Tribune had been the mouth piece of Seward and Seward prin- ciples, was ballyhooed by the op- position and dismayed many of Stewards friends. For Greeley took the position that Seward couldn't be elected.
 Here again was man, Seward, who had made many enemies. The anti Catholic or Know-Nothings, especially hated him. Henry Lane and Andrew Curtis, respectively Republican candidates for gover- nor in Pennsylvania, ran around

delivered the necessary tally sheets to the secretaries and despite the protest of Weed and his men the convention adjourned at D. m.
 During the night, in hotel rooms. Loncoln was nominated and Seward defeated. The anti-Seward dele gates, previously hopelessly divided among favorite sons and weakened because they couldn't get behind any one man, had been impressed that day by the well organized tremendous shouting for Lincoln. The Lincoln managers worked likc mad on the favorite sons.
 In the small hours of Friday morning two friends of Lincoln sat with two friends of Senator Simon Cameron of Pennsylvania. who had his states delegation. Tho latter finally were persuaded; Cameron was promised cabinet job.
 The biggest break of the conven- tion came when Cameron released his delegates and 48 of them went for Lincoln on the second ballot. The favorite sons piled on and Lin- coin won on the third.
 No single political boss or even q group is credited with Lincoln's nomination. The most potent fac. tor was the party's essential need of carrying New Jersey, Pennsyl- vania, indiana and Illinois, coupl- ed with the belief that Seward couldn't.

Weed became one of Lincoln's close advisers, helped him pick e cabinet, went to Europe on c Civil War mission for him and frequently was called to Washing ton for counsel during the conflict.
 One of his last political activities occurred when he and other party leaders decided on Grant as the republican nominee of 1888. It was Weed who went privately to tell Grant--another general--that he was going to be the man.

PAY CUT
PROTESTED

A movement to reduce the pay
of lahorers given work through
the District Employment Commit
tee from IS cents to Is cents per
hour has been protested to the
District Commissioners and will
be threshed out at a hearing on
September 6.
The movement was inStigated
by E. c.. Graham, former chair
man of the committee, who con-
tended that laborers employed by
contractors and commercial or
ganizationS generally are paid the
lower rate.
Continuation Of the IS cents an
hour pay by the committee, Mr..
Graham argued, would be an in
ducement for workmen to stick
with the committee rather than
to seek permanent employment
from business Establishments.
Leifur MagnuSson, president Of
the Monday Evening Club, vigor-
ouSly protested Mr.. Graham's
plan in a letter to the Commis-
Sioners. He was invited by the

In Presidents Attitude
on Partisan Talk

President Hoover does not in
tend that the Civil Service rules
prohibiting Federal employees
from engaging in political &C.
tivities shall forbid public dis
cussion of the bonus question,
it was stated on the President S
behalf today by Postmaster
General Brown, following a
Cabinet meeting.
Thus the Administration has
over-ridden President Thomas z.
Campbell, of the Civil Service
Commission, who had upheld the
discharge of a postoffice clerk at
Gary, Ind, for introducing a
bonus resolution at an Indiana
American Legion meeting.
First Assistant Postmaster Gen.
eral Arch Coleman confirmed
Kerr's removal, citing as the main
reason Kerr'S repeated delin-
quencies." The bonus action was
also a factor, since it was "con-
trary to the expressed wishes Of
the President" Coleman added.
To ReinState Kerr
After today's conference with
the President, Brown, however,
announced that Kerr would be
re-instated "Since the bonus queS-
ton has been made an issue in
his case"
Brown said that in the ordinary
course Of events, Kerr would have
been discharged for faulty woxh,
but indicated the President did
not want at this time to go
definitely on record as forbidding
discussion of the bonus or other
controversial political topics.
Questionable Taste"
Brown added:
"The matter Of good taste

from the Government, either
condemns or praises the Gov
ernment in public, or takes any
positive action, either way, on
