' PARKER’S SELECTION
A PROTEST AGAINST
DICTATION BY BRYAN
By JOHN TEMPLE GRAVES.
BALTIMORE, June 22.—The
committee on arrangements of the
national committee by a vote of
eight out of fifteen selected Alton
B. Parker, of New York, to present
to the national committee for tem
porary chairman of the national
convention if the full committee
should concur.
If the full committee concurs ors
Monday Judge Parker will be the
temporary < hairman of the con
vention unless the convention by
vote should reject the committee’s
recommendation and choose an
( other temporary chairman, as the
Roosevelt people endeavored to do
at Chicago.
Whatever may be made of the.
incident. I offer the assurance that
It has no special significance. It
was largely done through the will
ingness of this subcommittee to
oblige Chairman Mack, who
strongly urged the selection of the
New York man. Citaifiman Mack
, insists that his wishes, which have
prevailed in the matter up to this
point, were governed by only two
simple considerations. First, that
thi temporary presiding officer of
this great an- memorable Demo
cratic convent- :> should be one
who had receive.! the highest ex
pression of the party's confidence
as a nominee for the presidency.

Sin.ee the suggestion of Mr. Bryan’s
name had developed such wide
spread opposition Judge Parker
was naturally the next man to be
considered.
Expects Progressive Nominee.
Chairman Mack also avers that
he had this other consideration in
mind in connection with Judge
Parker. He believes that a pro
gressive Democrat is practically
certain to be the nominee of the
convention. Therefore, he felt that
it would be conciliatory and a step
toward harmony If a mild conser
vative. absolutely non-committal
between the various candidates for
the presidency, should have recog
nition in the earlier stages of the
convention after events promise to
go against the conservative wing.
It must be said that the refusal
of Mr, Bryan, from Chicago, to con
sent to Judge Parker’s nomination,
apd his threat to fight it upon the
floor of the convention, strongly
antagonized the majority of the
committee, as it did most of the
delegates who have already ar
rived. The action was therefore
Intended to serve notice upon Mr.
Bryan that while the coming con
vention appreciated his character
and loyalty, it did not propose to
submit to dictation from him.
So far the only developed and
emphatic opposition to Judge Park
er was from the representatives
and followers of Governor Wood
row Wilson. The Wilson men had
already said that they would eager
ly oppose Judge Parker.
The followers of Champ Clark,
while not opposing Mr. Bryan in
the matter, have not followed the
Nebraskan # so obsequiously as thi
Wilson followers
The Champ Clark men, by refus
ing to fight Parker, have left the
matter in such a shape that if they
choose they can with good grace on
Monday fall in with the program of
harmony and conciliation. The ac
tion of the Clark men is regarded
by political observers as excellent

Bryan Off to
Baltimore Today
CHICAGO, June 22.—William J. Bry
an and Mrs. Bryan will go this after
noon at 5 o’clock to Baltimore. They
were among the first arrivals at the
Republican convention today,
"I have absolutely no plan outlined
for my course at Baltimore,” he said.
"My mind is perfectly free.”
He declined to make any statement
concerning the Democratic program. A
friend said to him:
“Some of your friends may want to
throw your hat in the ring?”
“Then.” said Mr. Bryan, ‘‘l shall be
very careful of my hat.”
tactics in that it does not antag
onize. as Wilson has done, the New
York delegation, which was advo
cating Parker, and which feels
more kindly toward Clark and his
people for the attitude. If there is
any advantage accruing from the
selection. Clark gets it undoubted
ly.
Not Settled Yet.
This is all there is to the Parker
incident. The full committee and
the convention have yet to pass
upon him before he is temporary
cMhirman. It is very sure that if
Judge Parker is confirmed some
progressive like Ollie James or Sul
zer or Theodore Bell will be made
permanent chairman.
The pictures of the candidates
fix you with their eager and anx
ious eyes from every pillar and
post of the hotels and from every
willing window on the streets. Os

dent.” which he certainly does.
Papers Give a Square Deal.
Baltimore has four admirable
newspapers, The Sun and The
American in the morning and The
Star and The News in the evening
They are ably edited and beauti
ully printed. They have so far re
membered that Baltimore and her
newspapers are the hosts of Democ
racy, and that all Democratic can
didates are entitled to a square
deal and an .impartial record in
their news columns. What a heart
of hospitality it would be if the
journalistic hosts of that great oc
casion should forget the high ethic
of hospitality and journalism and
misrepresent or suppress the facts
concerning any great Democrat of
any faction who is here to present
his honest claim and aspiration be
fore his party in the convention
city?
Biggest Convention on Record.
Colonel John J. Martin, sergeant
at-arms, informs me. that the con
vention hall Is the greatest in which
the national Democratic party has
ever assembled. The great audito
rium will seat proportionately as
many more Democrats than the
Chicago auditorium as there are
more Democrats than Republicans
in the country at large. There is
20 per cent more room here than
in Chicago. There will be room for
5,000 more people to hear the
Democratic proceedings than heard
the Republican wrangle. There Is
room, and better room, for twice
as many newspaper men as Chi
cago provided for. The platform, is
twice as large, the convenience for
telegraphers better, the ventilation
is the finest that any political con
vention has known, and. best of
all, the acoustics are said to be per
fect. Baltimore her royal
best and, led by Mayor Preston and
Colonel Crain, will be a royal host
to the triumphant Democracy of
1912.

Democratic Peace,
Plea of Watterson
BALTIMORE, June 22. —Norman E.
Mack, national chairman, gave out a
telegram he received from Colonel
Henry Watterson. The telegram read:
“No fair objection to the choice of
Judge Parker for temporary chaitman
can be made by any thoughtful Demo
crat. As you know, I favored another
for that high honor, but what the Dem
ocrats of the United States at this time
most need and require is the pooling of
issues, not the raising of disturbance.
I especially hope that Mr. Bryan will
see the force of this. Like yourself, 1
am his friend. We want at Baltimore
not a repetition of the disgraceful scene
being enacted at Chicago. I fear that
if Mr. Bryan, thrice the nominee of
the party for president, should begin
by taking the floor to oppose Judge
Parker, once its nominee, he will not
only raise the standard of factionalism,
but will run the risk of ending a second
Roosevelt, and surely one Roosevelt
were enough for all times and both
parties.
"At a turning, when the very foun
dations of our constitutional systems
are menaced, and when upon the wis
dom and patriotism of Democracy the
future of free government in America
may depend, it will be criminal to split
hairs over a doctrinal difference, if
there be any, or to dogmatize upon the
details of reform. Such words as ‘pro
gressivist' and 'reactionary' should
have no place in any Democratic lexi
con. They belong to the Republicans.
They are springs to catch Republican
woodcock.
"The Democratic party at Baltimore
should present the country a square
and solid front, simple, sound, axiom
atic platform and a ticket so obvious
that no Democrat can find a reason
for bolting against it. With such a
guaranty on the part of the party,. the
party can not fail of the vote of inde
pendent and patriotic Americans, who
are sick alike of double-dealing and
visionary empiricism.
“HENRY WATTERSON."
