'among the republican presidential eandi-
1 -dates are beginning for the first time 10
.day to come out of the nebulous stmoa
here of the preliminary period and move
.toward definite form. ' '.Wr
The arrival of Senator Johnson, of Cal-
if ornia, to take personal charge or his
: andidacv and the" agreement among
"Wood leaders to hare Prank H, Hitch
: tuck act as their field marshal, are the
two outstanding developments which in-
.n- r. .. ..jo 1 .1...
dicate that within we nex num. w
iruatlon amon the republicans will
IntA the staare where the - leaders
... svill begin to do business. : -
Up until today none of the convention
lorces had reached the stage where one
" manager was 'prepared, to determine up
on a line of action with any degree of
v certainty of what might be expected from
Jus opponent . V The : soundings which
" Jiave been taken during the last day or
itwo, coupled with the approach of the
convention itself have advanced to the
point where, as the politicians say, things
are about ready to move. S : -,v ? : ? -
The Wood forces profess to be well
;" satisfied , with the arrangements within
their own ranks and lay emphasis on the
statement that, the hopes of their oppon
' -eats for a contest of leadership between
' jWiUiam Cooper Proctor, and Mr.- Hitch
cock, have gone - agUnunering. Mr.
VJProetor, they' say,' will continue in , his
Irresent eapaeity wtyh the Wood forces
nd the present agreement to have Mr.
iOitehcoek act ' as generalissimo ' of 'the
'forces on the convention floor was nn-
" animous and. agreeable all round.
After ' five days of sporadie activity
and jockeying, things' are beginning to
take on a; real convention atmosphere.
By the timVthe crowds of : delegates be
jjln pouring in and, with the coming of
political leaders from Washington things
' are expected to be going' full oust, r
The first eheers snd the first songs of
the boosters are beginning to be heard in
the hotel lobbies and on the streets.
Pianos are tinkling in many of the cam-
giaign headquarters, and the song leaders
" . - . J a 1. J a 5
, and cheer leaders are on me joo oegm
' aiag to -drill the ehoruses of willing
workers that always gather to partici
' pate in the noisy demonstrations which
accompany, a convention. , ; ; '
Publicity plans .have had an impetus,
. too, and' beginning today, Wood, Lowden,
and Johnson will begin giving two daily
intirvfews to newspaper men." Other can.
didates will join the plan as. they arrive.
- tienator ; I'oindexter, f Washington.ar
. rive.l-4oday;;from Washington and on
Satu, ay "his, special trains of ' boosters
; and aegates are duein from the west
. Prom today. on carloads of delegates will
b arriving from all parts of the country
: tf go through the quadrennial ,. preliml
; iaries of : caudusing, electing their dele
nation officers, members' of . the -various
; convention-; committees, and choosing the
state representatives on the, republican
national committee. ;' - ' -
'-There are also.' many little booms not
o well defined, or being supported with
- uch enthusiasm " as the principal i bnes.
Tbere; are candidates ft or president and
vice president ' who have arrived" ; with
" nominating speeches already prepared,
and now they, are busy canvassing the
' various delegations ' trying to induce
some' one to deliver them, 'j, : ' '
- Vice President . Marshall U going to
have a look at the republican contest and
possibly , some of the eonventionvon his
' -way west. He is due to arrive toftay.
' Byr'eomparlson with previous' eokven-
' tions, all the 'scenery- Snd props aren
to thin reAr 's bitf show. V Then
are miles of bunting, ilapping and flut-i
tering in the late spring breeees of. Lake
,"Michigaii; there are buttons, badges and
souvenirs . by the hogsheads; - there are
. bands by the seore, all ready to begin
glaring the campaign anthems; there are
V rooters "and boosters - preparing their
voices, for the uproar; there are euthusi-
" asta ready W parade at a moment's no-
- tic and to cheer with the winners and
snourn with the losers. .
" 4 While all these preparations axe going
V on the republican national committee in
- its meeting room at the Coliseum con
J tinues to grind Sway deciding contests
among state delegations. The Georgia
-ease, which contains delegates for Wood
6r for Lowden,. is on the calendar for
disposal " today, .and . there re sugges
tions .that yesterday's decision in the
Florida case with somewhat similar as-pects-might
;' furnish the j solution.
There are some indications, however, that
when the case is called, it may be passed
down the list to the bottom of the cal
endar, and wait thereuntil all the re
maining 'contests are disposed of. ' -
At the present rat of progress there
