No longer is It B. question of whether
'or not the Democratic national con
Ivention made a wise choice in candl

There Is. of course, u great deal of
academic discussion, the hones of yes
terday are being picked to pieces, and
, the mistakes of the MeAdoo manage
ment are being magnified, but the real
leaders, the men and women whose
business It is to elect, are getting d-rvrm
to work and formulating plans for th
mosi extensive Democratic campaign
l the ountr has over seen. It Is their
purpose to determine first of all where
"ox l weak and then to buttress him

Harding's reputation for conservation

cans and the independent can find no
lodgment In the catty; to make the

above all to secure ample funds to
meet the heavy expenses of the cam
liiKn With the s-jlid ilectorul votes
I of the south certain for their candi
date, the Democrats intend to confine
their at tivitles largely to a compara
tively few big states, such as ( hio,
New York, New Jersey, Massachusetts,
Wisconsin and Indiana It is the in
dustrial nte which thCy will endeavor
to corral, and If they succeed In their
efforts they declare Cox will be the
next president of the United States
The Ohio nominee, according to the
men who named him. is free from the
blight of administration connection.
All the delegates here, including manv
of the officeholders who sat in the
convention realised while they were
lauding Wilson, thai a large section of
Democracy was dissatisfied with many
nets Which had been done In Wash
ington during and since the war, and
this feeling was s factor of importance
In the defeat of the ex-secretary of th
treasury. W hat I h delegates wanted
as the result demonstrates, was a new
deai. and their frame of mind espe
1 daily appealed to those Democratic
senators who had broken from the
president and v0ted for reservations
to the league of nations. Governor Cox
has been completely Independent of
ihe administration and he !s in a POpl-.
lion, so far as the league Is concerned I
to stand for it with or without reset-
nations as he mav see fit.
He favors the latter It Is presumed
hs will not change his attitude in view
; of Use opening afforded In this re-
spect by the plank adopted by tho con-1
ventlon His 1,'roat fight however, will j
i e based upon the imperative necessity'
' ot returning an administration which
will secure the ratification of the'
treaty.
EIEP1 Hi U INS READY
The Republicans, unquestionably
Will be ready to meet him on this'
Issue. Will Senator Harding, in hi
speech of acceptance, flatly declare his.
opposition to the league" If he docsi
so. Senator Johnson will support him;
with nil his force. If he does not, I
Johnson will make his lone fight
against the league in California jusi as
Senator Heed is making a lone fight
I against the league in Missouri.
Important as the league of nation"
is to the country and to prosperity, It
seems to me, front the wav the dele-i
gates talk, that they regard It as sec-:
ondary to other matters cnguglng the;
attention of tho people. The leaders
admit that Cox wan labelled "wet" by
the convention. Twenty-eight "otps
wet for Cox" shouted tho chairman
Of the New Jersey delegation when he
transfered his unit solidly to the!
Ohloan. On the same ballot. New York j
gave 63 votes to Cox. and Illinois fol-1
low ed suit with all the wot votes she j
could muster. The fight for the nomi
nation became a wet and dry light
and it was the mutuality of interest!
which caused tho wets to hord to
gether and support the man theyj
eventhally put over. They were aided
by the antl-admlnlstrat Ion feeling In j
the convention, the "crown prince"
propaganda, and by tho exceedingly1
Intelligent direction of Ed Moore, the'

I and Franklin D Roosevelt of New

ELATED OVER II RMOXY.
Democratic leaders wore elated over
j tho spirit of harmony which marked
, the last hours of tho convention.
, There had been good feeling and tol- j
erance shown throughout the long
struggle to reach a presidential nomi-
nation, it was said, but in the noml
I nation of Mr. Roosevelt by acclama
I tlon following the withdrawal of ell
other candidates, these leaders saw
evidence of differences buried and a
determination to work hard for vie
tory in the election from which they
drew great satisfaction.
It was generally agreed that the
convention had been a great success.
I If noise and unflagging display of en
, thusiasm were a gauge of that success
, there was ample ground for their
: view. Up to the last tho delegates
were ready to cheer or to demonstrate
I at every opportunity.
NAMING OF ROOSEVELT,
In a way the scene yesterduy when
Mr. Roosevelt was nominated rivaled
that of the breakup early In the morn
I ing of the McAdoo-Coz deadlock and
j tho nomination of Govornor Cox.
i What it lacked In the tense expectancy
of the last ballots, after the action of
Attorney General Palmer In releasing
I his delegates broke down the barrier
j that had held the convention helpless
through 88 ballots, the Roosevelt
nomination made up in the swiftness
j with which the decision wa.s reached.
Nominating speeches were again
the order of the day when the con
vention assembled at noon. Half a
dozen candidates were put forward
and there was evidence that a strong
' movement was on to name a man
from the west. The speakers ap
! pealed for recognition of the west's
share in Mr Wilson's second election.
RIP STATE STANDARDS.
Just before that, however, a final
demonstration had followed thevread
ing of a telegram from Governor Cox
by Chairman Robinson thanking the
convention for Its expression of faifh
in him. For the last lime the dele
gates ripped up the state standards,
many of them showing scars of
i scrimmages that were fought mound
them during the nomination fight. A
few of the standards were slow about
