Washington, July C If everybody
else ia the Demoeratie party in as well
satisfied with the selection of Governor
James M. Cos as' the Presidential nomi
nee as President Wilson is, the Be-
oublican party will get little encourage
ment from the .'looked for disgruntled
clement. -
It wilt only be a matter of time be
fore the Bepublieaa dopeetera will be
seriously engaged in aa effort to prove
to the -country that Governor Cos-has
been -the Wilson,-ehoic all along and
that the forty-four ballots at San Fran
Cisco were -ninety-nine tenths camou
flage. It ia absolutely accessary that they
prove this. Ia inform ing the country at
the outset that the President waa in
complete control of tho convention and
would order the delegates around a lit
tle snore sternly than Penrose did at
Chicago, they .eliminated every ody btit
the candidate ia favor at the White
House..
As To White Heme CatnL
MeAdoo, of course, led all the names.
He. waa the President's soa-ia-law and
hi nomination would mean the perpet
uation of all the Wilson policies, the
majority of which have been eceed
ingly distastefut to the Be publicans.
Thea came , along the story that the
night before Carter Glass aad Baia
bridge Colby eUrted to tho eoast the
President aad MeAdoo had engaged ia
a .family ".fend and political, quarrel.
Therefore, said tho Bepubuenas, Colby
will be nominated.
Some of tho papers had cartoons with
iabiaet Members riding on top of a
big steam roller driven by Carter Glass.

The most fluctuating thing in all the
propaganda diasearmuted by Wilson
naters was tao nit tnat ae ausaseif was
after the nomination aad had eajoiaed
Burleeesj aad others to nee that ho re
ceived it. Then whea Secretary Glass,
as Ban rraneisco. ia his owa enthusi
asm for MeAdoo. flung diplomacy aside
and declared tan "Cos woat do." the
White House critics at once aaid that
the President had ordered Cos beaten.
But whea Mr. Glass decided to release
the Virginia delegates, oaly one of them
with a half vote cast it for MeAdoo aad
ne oae ia tho Virginia delegation arose
to nominate MtvWilsoa, aaid tha critics,
the Whit House steamroller had ceas

ment was ia control. '

The administration Democrat are
well pleased with the eoaveatioa choice.
Secretary Tnmnlty, talking it aver with
the newspaper fellows this morning, re
membered that it was Cos at tha Jack
sob Day dinner who declared that the
boys in Franca didn't go aver the top
with reeervabone.
Mr. Bryaa is not entirely pleased
