THE CONVENTION It was a royal battle from start to finish, fairly and decently fought, and the nomi nation of Haiding and Coolidge places two able and trustworthy men at the head of the Republican ticket. Maine stood lor Gen. Wood from first to last, and, if nominated, Gen. Wood would have been a strong and popular candidate. | Governor Lowden would also have been i strong and popular, and either of them would have given the country a clean and vigorous administration. After the ninth ballot it was evident that unless a break was made, balloting would con tinue perhaps for several days. Gov. Lowden released his delegates and they with several other delegates voted fo: | Senator Harding, giving him almost 200 j votes more than w’ere necessary to secure the nomination. Sen. Harding has been spoken of as being a dark horse, but only once since 1856 has the Republicans nominated a candidate to whom such a designation could properly be applied. This was in 1880 when Garfield was nominated at the close of a strenuous contest. Vigorous contests preceded the 1 nominations of both Hayes and Harrison. In the first ballot each of these stood ; fifth. In the first ballot Harding was I sixth with 65 1-2 votes, and in the second moved up to fifth place, in the sixth moved into fourth place, went into third on the seventh ballot, and became a lead er in the ninth. When the final break :ame 93 changed to Harding from Wood, 120,1-2 from Lowden. Johnson's maxi mum strength of 148 had dwindled to 82, many of the original number finally were for Harding. I nus 11 appears mai lime u any lasting bitterness is likely to follow the contest. As.a public office holder Sen. Harding was State senator of Ohio in 1899-1903, and was lieutenant governor for the fol- j lowing two years. He was elected to the United States Senate in November, 1914. ; His term of service as Senator will expire March 3, 1921. As to his business capac- j ty it is only necessary to say that some | ,0 years ago when he was about 15 years j of age he was working for a wage of $9 a ■ week. By industry, enterprise ana fair dealing he has established a good busi ness. He is not a rich man and is con tent wUh a modest competency. In poli "iC' he is neither a reactionary nor a pro gressive. He is a conservative, having toleration and vision. Gov. Coolidge was nominated for Vice President on the first ballot, receiving 674 1-2 votes against less than 300 for all others. This shows that all over the United States the ability of iov. Coolidge is recognized. The Republican National Convention or 1920 has not only put in nomination men who will be approved by the voters, but it has written for them a platform which is practical, sane and thoroughly American. Belfast friends have received the fol lowing of special interest to many of T he Journal readers: “Mr. and Mrs. Oliver Garrison Ricketson request the ho nour of your presence to the marriage of their daughter, Lucy Carnegie, to Mr -’.obert Weeks Ferguson on Tuesday, the twenty-ninth of June, nineteen hundred and twenty at three o’clock in the after noon at Grace Church, New Bedford, Mass.” The groom is a son of Mr. and Mrs- Clinton G. Ferguson of New Bed ford, formerly of this city, and is well known here. D’JILD YOURSELF UP SO AS TO FEEL BZTTCt | Eat anil sleep better, ns well as lrck I better, by taking Hood’s Sarsapa rilla.

Colonial Theatre Alice Brady, Harry Morey, Olive Thomas, William Famum to be Seen the Next Few Days. “Sinners” Thursday. Alice Brady as Mary Horton in “Sin ners,” which is being shown on the sil ver sheet Thursday portrays for the screen the role which put her in the fore most rank of American emotional act resses. Miss Brady is supported by an eminent cast of screen and stage actors. James L. Crane plays the part of the hero who comes out of the West, and Frank Losee, the product oi city environment. Owen Davis wrote the stage play, “Sinners,” for Miss Brady. Its phe nomenal success created the demand^ for a novelized version. The book ran into many editions. The hosts who read the book but were unfortunate not to see Miss Bradv on the speaking stage, de manded a screen adaptation of the play with Miss Brady in the principal role. The screen version is declared to be even better than the spoken one because of the absence of stage limitations. "The Flaming Clue,” Friday In recent years the detective story has become the most popular form of fiction. From the office boy to the bank president can be found hundreds who spend their spare moments in this diversion. The detective film had been tardy; but with “The Flaming Clue” it comes into its own. Harry T. Morey is a perfect type for a detective hero. He is a composite of the fiction sleuth ■ and has a personality similar to several real detectives. The feature deals with the capture of a band of counterfeiters and every detail has been worked out in accordance with mod ern methods of detecting crime. The story is filled with suspense, mystery, action and love. It is the kind of feature that holds the attention from the first flash an I makes the spectator desire to rush to the aid of the hero and heroine by warning them of a hidden danger. It is the type of story you enjoy. Art Acord in the second episode of the thrilling serial “The Moon Riders” and a travelogue complete Friday’s bill. "The Glorious Lady,” Saturday Olive Thomas, famous Zieglield star and noted beauty, will appear Saturday in the Select society drama, “The Glori ous Lady,” a play which will entertain all. A Christie comedy “Beachnuts” and the News will complete Saturday’s bill. William Farnum, Monday The mere announcement that William Farnum is coming in “Heart Strings” Monday, is most welcome news. Don’t forget the day, Monday next. Arthur H. Leonard and son, Arthur H. Jr., were registered at the Windsor while in Belfast the past week on business, and to try their luck at fishing in Swan Lake. CLEANED THE POISONS FROM HIS SYSTEM A MASSACHUSETTS MAN GRATEFUL Somerville, Mass. A well-liked citizen of this city, who has suffered in the past, writes the following to Dr. J. P. True & Co.: I “I have taken all kinds of laxatives, j but none of it cleaned the poison from my j system as your Elixir—will know what 1 to use hereafter considering the effects it had on me, as I feel splendid now—all my system needed was a real cleaning which only your Elixir gave—other physics I have taken merely passed through my bowels. (Name on request.) Dr. True’s Elixir has relieved thousands of sufferers during the last 68 years.
