nival Day." a tworeel comedy,
and ''Wee Men," a novelty one

Little Thought Given at Conventions
To Nominations of Vice Presidents

convention floor, and wheels began to
turn that would have ground out the
nomination of Senator Lenroot. But
an up-and-coming delegate from Ore
gon stood up on his chair and pro-
posed Gov. Coolidge of Massachusetts
for the vice presidential nomination.
BY that time the convention was IN
the let-down mood in which conven-
tions usually are at this stage. But
there was just enough pep left in the
1920 Republican convention to feel
irritation. The convention observed
that one Senator, Harding, had been
given the presidential nomination,
and that now it was proposed to give
the vice presidential nomination to
another Senator, Lenroot. In mood
of evaporation, the convention
grabbed the proposal to nominate
Gov. Coolidge, and ran away with it.
Bryan's Nomination Cited.
The Democratic convention Of 1924
wrangled for more than two weeks.
and deadlocked, between Gov. Smith
of New York and William G. McAdoo.
The deadlock was dissolved by giving
the presidential nomination to Mr..
John w. Davis. Immediately arose
the familiar situation. This conven-
tion having argued angrily for more
than two hot weeks, was even more
let-down than most conventions are
when it becomes their business to
nominate q vice presidential candi-
date. Some one suggested Gov.
Charles w. Bryan of Nebraska; in the
usual needless rush he was nominated.
After it was done Gov. Smith, sur
veying the ticket-conservative DEM
ocratic lawyer John w. Davis of New
York for President and extremely
progressive Democratic Gov. Charles
w. Bryan of Nebraska for Vice Presi-
dent-Gov. Smith, observing that
combination, remarked that there was
something queer about it, that the
two elements did not mix we'll, that
they would not make a good cocktail.
There was one Vice President whose
nomination was planned - but

In that position he was a serious in
convenience to the then Republican
boss" Of New York, Thomas C. Platt.
Platt decided to get rid of his annoy
ance by lifting him from the COVER
norship of New York to the vice pres
idency Of the United States. Some
Of the other Republican bosses, in
other States, didn't like it. They did
not wish Platt's incubus to be lifted
on the collective shoulders of the
others. Theodore Roosevelt himself
didn't like 1t. resisted, told friends and
members of his family that he
wouldn't have it. But Platt managed
1t. Theodore Roosevelt ran on the
ticket with Mckinley, was elected,
was inaugurated on March 4, 1901,
presided over the Senate for a few
brief and boring weeks. and then, six
months after he had become Vice
President. received a telegram telling
him that President Mckinley had
been shot by an assassin. The rest.
Is they say, Is history.
