Convention Sidelights ll> IIOIIKIIT T. S.MALI. If* I, By Til# AtfvtiK*) New York, July ? Tin* delegates Lave l>c mi 11 to "walk uul" on the' Democratic nhow at Madison .Square f Sonator Walsh, tlio permanent chair man. It has appeart-d to the unini tiated that on one occasion Sonator Walsh lias uphold tho nnlt rule and In another caso has smashed it. As a mattor of fact apparently conflict ing decisions have boon on entirely svpara'to questions. For tho first 15 ballots Florida had boon voting as a unit for Wil liam liibbs McAdoo. Then Dologato Gilchrist announced that ho wanfolT to vjytto for A1 Smith and intondod to do bo. Sonator WalsTT" uptrrW him, for it was shown that while the Florida delegation has boon "in structed" in the primary for McAdoo thoy had not been bound by the unit rule. Iii other states the delegates liavo boon iiiHtructod to vote as a unit on all questions. In other words if the delegation stands 11 for McAdoo and 0 for Smith, the entire 20 votes must be cast for McAdoo. Chairman Walsh very pertinently has held that if every state should "instruct" for some different candi dal- and no one ever was permitted to break away from the instructions, there would be no chance on earth ever to nominate a candidate. The permanent chairman, who seems to " i"?-? nnvnt Jnh nn 'Mf allowed it was a difficult task as it' Is. Delegate Gilchrist created a laugh -When he beuan his argument. Ho addressed the convontion as: dies and mera~uien." A number of delegates thought he said "near nien," and hoc-hawed accordingly. The most popular tune of the con vention Wednesday was "Keep the Home Fires nurning." The boys hope to get home before the harvest moon arrives. The galleries at Madison Square Oarden revert to type every now and then. The garden is mostly used for prize fights. Therefore the audience generally is in a mood to look down upon gladiatorial conflicts. That is why the galleries call for "Bryan, THE ETERNAL STRUGGLE ? jmm the fi. novel "The I. mi Bringen" Directed hv KECINAM) BARKEIi iril/i ? notable C.ast tlint includes EAKLE WILLIAMS KEN EE ADC >11 EE BARBARA I ...

This convention was not as far apart on the Klan and anti-Klan is sue us the vote on naming the Klan in the platform would seem to in?1 i - cute. The plain facts are that the in aT "majority of -the d?-l?-Ka4* ->uui outspokenly against 'the Klan, hut tfn y could not "go along".. with the "radicals" who iriVtsrni that ? -fin* name Kn Klux Klan should be spe cifically denounced. The bitterness of the light grew out of the fuel that the radical nnti-Klan-ner* mancuverd themselves into a position ' froip which it was difficult to withdraw. They annoujifed at the beginning of tit'- KM'UggU' lli.it tin Kin n nnivt hi named. Therefore they felt that if the Klan was jiot named it would consider that il hail won a victory. The anti-Klan plank in the platform as adont ed went much _J urt he r than most ?f the aTJti-Kianners believed It would go before they came to New York. Hut having set their goal up on the naming of the order, they had to light to the last ditch for that po sition. What may be termed tlio^'ccono tnlc chance" of the Klan fight In the I convention, with all lt? attending fireworks and publicity for the hood ed order, have begun. On Tuesday night In a neighboring New Jersey county more than 400 men worn In ducted into tho Klan with semi-pub lic ccremonies. The Louisiana and the Mississip pi delegations have come to be known in the convention? its -the '?maverick*." The Louislanans were -I4?u first to stroll all about the res ervation. They voted for half a doz en different aspirants -before Anally! settling down in tho John W. Davis I camp and remaining there. The Mis sissippinns voted at first for I'at Har rison. Then they began to ramble i after the fashion of Louisiana. Alsoj like Louisiana, they finally settled under the Davis banner. During the first 10 ballots of the convention the greatest gain was made by one of the darkest of the durk horses ? Senator Walsh of Mon tana.
