‘REJECTING CLARK DENIES
RULE OF PEOPLE’-HEARST
BALTIMORE, July 1. The Clark
position was today slated with di
rectness and with much of expres
sion that shows the real sentiment
of lhe Clark leaders by William
Randolph Hearst, who has been a
prominent figure in the Clark cam
paign. After reviewing lhe cam
paigns of the past in which Mr.
Bryan figured, Mr. Hearst said In a
formal statement:
”1 came tn this convent lon rM
support progressive principles and
a progressive candidate, and to
oppose the political bosses and the
privileged Interests as I have al
ways done and always will do I
came here to support the Demo
cratic candidate, even though It
was William J. Bryan, although I
and every other friend of Mr. Bry
an have come to know that he is
never grateful for a service nor
loyal to a friend
"The spirit which I felt seemed
Io me to be shared by nearly every
other Democrat that I met at this
other man here an opportunity to be
heard," said Belt.
The confusion was so groat that he
could hardly make himself heard
Delegates Threatened
By Sergeant-at Arms
"The state of K tnsas has ordered
the following resolution."
"We have heard it." yelled the dele
gates.
He read it again," said the speaker,
and he did. leaving out a portion.
Read the rest of it," roared the Wil
son side of the convention.
■I will," said Mr. Bell.
"They instructed the delegates that
they must vote for Clark until four
teen delegates agreed that he had no
chance."
"No, no.” came a chorus led by K.
J. Justice, of North Carolina
The chair has ruled you out of or
der.
"I'll put you out of the convention
if you don't get In order," cried the
sergeant-at -arms.
"The resolution." repeated Mr Bell,
"provides that fourteen men must vote
for Wilson."
"(live Wilson the vote." .ailed a
delegate. Don't take any more from
him."
Mr Justice, of North Carolina, was
again out of his chair
The sergeant ■ at-arms got a glimpse
of his form and shouted:
"The chair directs you bo put i>tt'
unless you t ike your seat."
"What's that'"' asked the delegate
The delegates laughed.
Mr. Justice held his hand to his ear
and stood in the most bland and child
like fashion watting to hear what was
said, A policeman went over and had
him sit down Mi BeP -<;il<l thirteen
was not two-thirds of twenty.
A Mitchell Palmer, of Pennsylvania,
followed 8011. He said that ho desired
to say upon a point of order that when
the delegates were called 19 only were
present, and while the state had 20
votes as a whole, with one absent, the
IP. made two-thirds of the delegation

and this convention
opened with Democratic prospects
brighter than I have ever .seen
them before."
He referred to the antagonisms
aroused at the Chicago convention
and charged that the Democratic
convention had aroused even more
.bitterness and added:
"But into this convention has
come a candidate with the greatest
number of delegates elected by the
direct primaries, which expressed
the people's will. If this convention
is a progressive convention and if
the watchword of the progressives
is let the people rule.’ how can this
convention afford to reject this
candidate and deny the right of the
people to rule?"
Mr. Hearst then asks how the
convention can reject a candidate
who for eight consecutive ballots
polled the majority vote of the
body.
;If the Democrats," he continued,
fail to nominate Champ Clark they
present, he added, and could pass any
resolution requiring two-thirds vote.
Hence, he argued, that 13 was two
thirds of the present delegation and
that the delegation had a right to
change Its vote.
J. W. Orr, of Atchison. Kans., said
that a meeting of the Kansas delega
tion was held yesterday and that they
had decided by twd-thlrds vote to
change from Clark to Wilson, and that
they had agreed on subsequent matters
to lot a majority rule. He contended
that after a delegation had gone Wil
son by two thirds vote yesterday there
was no power that could make It go
back to i 'lark.
Chair Upholds
Kansas for Wilson.
"The chair is ready to rule." said
< 'hairmatt James
He reviewed the question under de
bate and ruled that Kansas' delegation
could change ils vote by two-thirds of
the delegates voting, and was not re
quired to have two-thirds of the state's
total allowed vote
"The point of order Is overruled and
the 20 votes of Kansas are directed to
he cast for Wilson." added.
There was a cheer and it was repeat
ed when the clerk called, "The state of
Kansas Wilson 20."
The white dove of peace that came
opt earljT in the session made a flying
• xi'erilttßn about the bill. It alighted
neat' the band stand wherefrom the
music tied.
J R. Riggs, a delegate from Sulli
van. Ind., said today during lhe prog
ress of the vote:
“Senator Kern is not yet ready to
have the delegation vote for him."
The emphasis on the "yet" attracted
much attention.

will not only arouse the resent
ment of the nation, but they will
make their pretensions to progres
sive principles ridiculous. It would
seem as if it had been Mr. Bryan's
deliberate intention to destroy fa
vorable prospects of the Demo
cratic party and to prevent the
victory for progressive principles
w hich seemed certain.
"To accomplish this. Mr. Bryan
has stopped at nothing. He has not
hesitated even to make unwarrant
ed attacks upon the integrity of
t'harnp Clark, a man who has been
his devoted friend for eighteen
years.”
Mr. Hearst then said that Mr.
Bryan himself accepted boss sup
port in his campaigns, charged him
with being "an insolent boss" and
a man who fails to respect presi
dential primaries.
"If he is to be the leader of the
Democratic party." he added, "there
soon will be no Democratic party
to follow."
Governor Foss
Confers With Bryan
BALTIMORE, July 1. William .1 Bry
an and Governor Foss, of Massachusetts,
held a conference in the Bryan quarters
at the Belvedere hotel this morning.
Delegates afterwards declared that
Bryan's intention was to switch to Foss
forth? nomination if upon the first bal
lot today it was obvious that Wilsofi
could not he nominated. A report gained
general circulation about the convention
hall and the s hotels that the Massachu
setts executive had offered himself as a
compromise candidate.
Governor Foss explained later that he
had called to pay his respects tn Mrs.
Bryan and the nature of his conference
with Mr. Bryan had become a subject of
interest.
Howell Attack,s
Peerless One
dark Howell, national committee
man from Georgia and editor of The
Constitution, is back in Atlanta from
tlte Baltimore convention for a day,
with the prediction that Champ ('lark.
I'nderwood or a dark horse will win the
Democratic presidential nomination.
"The chances are in the order named."
said Mr. Howell. "I believe that Wilson
and Bryan are eliminated: that the
fight Bryan has been probably making
foe his own nomination has signally
failed. Wilson will go down with him.
"After Clark, comes I’mlerwood as
the big probability. I do not think that
the convention is hopelessly deadlocked,

approaches a mob convention than any

Denounces Bryan,
"in it the effort of Bryan to dictate
his opinions to the Democracy of the
country again and bring about his own
nomination stands out as predominant.
Bryan has posed for years as the coun
try's foremost exponent of primaries.
Now, instructed by the very primary he
himself pretended to espouse, he has
aeen the. first man to desert his instruc
tions. His attack upon Champ Clark
was one of the most vicious, unjustified
and unwarranted in the history of the
party. His elimination is the most sig
nificant feature of the Baltimore con
vention thus far. and I believe that it
means also the elimination of presiden
tial primaries In the party hereafter,
unless those primaries are made bind
ing."
Mr. Howell is back from Baltimore
because of a pressing business engage
ment in Atlanta and because the na
tional committee, of which he Is a
member, has finished its work and has
adjourned. But he is returning today
and he will be present at the finish.
“Bryan has charged that Clark is In
connivance with the Ryan-Belmont
crowd, and is not a progressive. To
my mind. Clark is one of the best pro
gressives in this country today. If
Clark is not a progressive, there is no
progressive, and he isn't in any deal
with anybody.
“Everybody who has read a single
paper knows what Bryan is trying to
do—that he is interested in the welfare
of Democracy no' half so much as he is
interested In his new attempt to bring
about a stampede again that will nomi
nate Bryan. He has been the trouble
maker of the whole convention. When
ever there has come a semblance of
peace it has been Bryan who jumped
into the ring and started a fight again.
He has been beaten, and I think he has
been decisively beaten. I look for a
nomination within 48 hours, and I look
t 0 see Clark, Underwood or a dark
horst win the convention’s vote."
