 Tara -de-boofn Mayor crowns queen of love and beauty.
 Let's ride--in a police patrol-from wreck to riot and ruined parade, and try to take Q passing look at the queen.
 Two hundred persons are jammed on the grandstand, six feet above the ground. They heard 8 band, leap to their feet, crane their nccks. A dozen youngsters simultaneously climb to the rear of the stand. It sways. A woman screams. The plaS- form crashes, sliding the spectators to the grass of the parkway like pawn on an overturned chessboard.
 Providence Sent It
 A Red Cross fioat-amaZingly-- stalls in front of the stand. Pro- vidence sent 1t, breathes a woman. Uniformed nurses, police and fire- men leap from the vehicle. They administer first aid. Only 20 are hurt severely enough to take to a hospital.
 But now there's Q riot 8 conven- ton halll Away we goi
 At Il p. Tn., 10000 democrats are listening to a MT. Wickham talk about the young democrats. At 11:0l a banner, bearing the name of Al Smith, hutters in the topmost row of the balcony. Boo! Boo: Get that man! Kill him!
 Rooseveltians tear at the sign. Police, reporters, photographers race up the steep stairs. More Al Smith banners are unfurled. A couple of gents square of. A beautyl Schmel- ing couldn't have done betterl
 Down go the fighters to the con- crete floor. Police mop up the melee, arrest half a dozen shiny-haired young men. An officer spies an inert figure sprawled on the floor Dead? No, he's drunk. Two cops carry him out.
 A New Dealer grabs the Smith sign, turns 1t upside down, holds 1t high. Boos change to cheers.
 Republican Ho0dlums
 Chairman David l.. Lawrence of

Ely announced he was willing to campaign in New England for the republican ticket. With the gavel smack that ruled the platform adopted, the green light blazed for Mr.. Roosevelt to carry on.
 Negro Orator Speaks
 One note of protest narred the unanimity of convention action. Rep. Arthur W. Mitchell, 8 negro elected to the house from Chicago, was introduced and from the plat form beloved @ speech in favor of the administration. Sen. Ellison D. Smith of South Carolina and few other delegates From his state took a walk. He left the hall on the sec- ond day day in protest against se- lection of @ negro preacher to de- liver the invocation. This time he said he was gone for good. His bolt scarcely rippled politically stirred city in which a "mummer's parade" and "mardi gras" combined last night with the convention itself to start celebration that ran far toward the dawn.
 Pictures Everywhere
 To be distinctive here is to get your picture taken, and the dele- gations outdo each other in bizarre garb. Florida is in now with yellow Jockey caps. Rhode Island wears red helmets. Texans and some others from the wild west states peer be- meath wide brinmed StetSons. The young man who rides the donkey down the aisles was there again last night with his groom. All this Is a build-up to the climax of tonight and the super climax of tomorrow when the president, himself, will be here and the delegates can cheer him in person.
 100000 May Be There
 Democrats claim 100000 persons will be seated tomorrow night in Franklin field stadium and on the playing ground to hear MT. Roose. welt and MT. Garner accept their nominations. Sen. Joseph T. Robin- son, permanent chairman of this convention, will introduce the presi- dent to the assembly, but the big introduction will take place below stairs in a sound proof, Inany-booth- cd room, where score or more of governors and bigwigs from each of the 48 states will simultaneously pre- sent the president to the people of their own communities.
 The 48 simultaneous introducers will all be talking at once, each into his own microphone, the "nom- inators" reported, and as Robinson concludes on the platform the 48 below will join him in saying:
 "The president of the United States"
 It never has been done before and probably will not go of quite that smoothly.
 Mir. Roosevelt will arrive here en route to Hyde Park, his New York country home, and will return from there to Washington Tuesday. The latter part of next week, he will in- wade Virginia.

 One Out Of Running
 Only one of the five Americans in the tourney definitely shot hifn- self out of the running. He was Joe Ezar of Waco, Texas, who had an 90 for l02 aggregate.

He declared that the text of the plat- form giving the president free hand in handling of the business of the nation for the coming four years is ideal. It was claimed ct the same time that the abrogation of the two-thirds rule was a move to clear the way for the nomination of Postmaster General James Farley in l04O.

THE Archangel Michael stands \ highest, next to God, as the conqueror of Satan, and so his place is where the danger is greatest--high on a rock in the Bay of Saint Michel, in northern France, overlooking the immense ocean. There stands the great cathedral built 90o' years ago in his honor, 235 feet above the roar. ing waves. It is the Archangel's "Mount in Peril of the Sea-" and is considered one of the finest pieces of Norman architecture.
 The Abbot Hildebert began this masterpiece to St. Michael, who was then patron saint of France. in 1920. But in 1913 the facade began to give way, and in l776 the facade and three of the seve1 spans of the nave had to be pulled down, to save the rest of the church. Now, rebuilt, the cathe- dral retains four arches of the Ab- bot Hildebert'S nave and some of the columns.
 The famous cathedral is pie tured on the 5-franc stamp issued by France in 1930.

in the state, interest in the native
flowers of Montana was awakened, not
only in botanists, educators, children
and women who loved flowers, but in
politicians, business men. miners, sheep
men-in fact everyone old and young.
The interest stayed with the cam
paign, through its eight months until
Sept. l. Votes were accepted any time
during the campaign, not only on the
special ballot sent out by state or
county chairmen land these county
chairmen were distinguished folks, too

name of voter and flower. Votes were
also recorded in record books placed
at certain headquarters. Voting was
free, but there was no 'stuffing Of the
ballot box and no questionable thing
connected with the campaign in our
big state.
There was good faith everywhere
blem was an appropriate tribute to the
lovely blossoms presented as candi-
dates.
During the campaign the general
knowledge of the states flora was in
creased. Flower meetings and floral
festivals were held. Botanical societies
were formed-a state botanical society
in BoZeman with Peter Koch, banker
and scientist as president. The state

popular thing in Montana. It was an
honor to be in it. The votes were count
ed Sept. l by a distinguished commit
tea college professors wife, a young
man botaniSt and a young man who
loved beauty in nature and art.
And all this was done in a cam
paign of eight months. And other
which started with Montana,
fooled away year after year with their
50-cent votes and never arrived They
could not get the vision.
"A campaign without a fund, yet
never lacking money to carry on!'
Everyone connected with it vas eager
to give postage, printing, newspaper
space, money for speaking tours and
anything else desired as the flowers
were to give their bloom and fragrance.

Montana Newspaper Men Took
Up Floral Emblem Campaign
to Make 1t NQtiOn's LiUeliest

MOntana's state emblem cam
paign Of 1894 was made a unique
success by newspaper men. Mrs.
Matt w. Anderson, chairman, in a
report to the state press cOnven
tion Of 1880, told the story as fol-
lows:
Newspaper men of today are inter-
ested in the notable things the Mon
tana press has done in the historic
portant part the newspapers had in
The state floral emblem campaign of
1894.
ut was a unique campaign directed
by me, but carried On largely by the
newspapers; and it deserved even more
In song and story than it ever re-
ceived; and for years after it closed,
inquiries came from other states ask
ing how we eve did it. Yet no other
state could get the vision to try our
beautiful way.
1.-The floral emblem movement was
started at the Worlds fair in Chicago
In 1893 by women who rebelled at the
u%nfairneSS of E; registration opened at
the woman's building for corn, as a
national floral emblem. The National
Floral Emblem society was organized by
these women to give every m a right
to vote for his OF her candidate. Its
RU0A WdS w VI Sd1IlAt IlVC d11Ouo otaeCo
and territories, have each select a state
Horal emblem. There was a member
ship fee of so cents and only members
could vote.
Il was given the craftsmanship for
Montana and was fortunate enough to
secure the corporation of botanists
and flower-lovers throughout the state.
Then Mr.. Anderson and I perceived
that there was no business sense in the
way the national society was conduct
ing its affairs, so we determined to run
way.
I'VE decided to have no membership
fee, no voting fee, no assessments for
the state. We opened the campaign by
q circular letter to the newspapers of
Montana, outlining the scope and plan
The Hardin tribune-herald. [volume] (Hardin, Mont.) 1925-1973, 1936-07-10

A campaign of courtesy, generosity and
romance, with never a trace of con-
troversy or unkindness.
THE campaign was n of the beau
tiful things of my beautiful years and
left memories sweeter than roses
fitting in at that time with a home
life of ideal happiness with my wonder
full husband and children and the dear
friends who came often.
And the impartiality of the CAM
paign was continued in securing the
legalization of the Lewisia rediviva
Bitter Root as state floral emblem.
W.. w. Anderson, my honored father
in-law, was a member of the house of
representatives. He had been interested
in the campaign and had made the
clippings from the state papers for
my scrap book. He was a republican,
so I asked a family friend, who was a
democrat. Hon. Walter Cooper, to in
troduce my bill. My husband went over
to Helena and placed on the desk of
each member in the house and senate
a letter giving no propaganda, but a
history of the campaign, a picture of
the LeWisia rediviva, and a tabulated
vote. showing that two-thirds of the
votes cast were for the Bitter Root. OF
course, the bill passed unanimously.
In the enthusiasm which followed a
Bitter Root design was autographed

newspapers are always generous
with their space in aiding charitable
movements, helping distressed, distrib-
uting bounty, aiding in material prog
ress and boosting commercial things.
But it is rarer to find them united in
supporting q thing of beauty with no
material attachment. Yet beauty pays
always; for it gives a spiritual uplift
which is fundamental for good. And I
present the assistance given the state
floral emblem campaign as q notable
achievement of the Montana press.
All hail to our newspapers-past,
present and future.
May they give, as they have, their
best to the state, and may that best,
four-fold blessed, come back to them"
