I V EIN 11UIN IS WILD UPROAR FOR FIFTEEN MINUTES (cownweno paub Smith halids tried to keep them from it and In a moment there was a real row In progreM. The fight, appeared confined solely to the North Carolina 1 delegates themselves, with no outsid- ; era in it. t Policemen Take Hand t into Gils melee plunged a half I dozen policemen who were lined up i in front of the platform. At first reluctant to take harsh measures with i the city’s guests, they merely tried < to pry the contestants apart, but • when this failed out came the clubs. ’ Tennessee was just acrons the isle 1 from North Carolina and precisely 1 Just what happened there happened 1 In a twinkle. H. W. McGinnis, chair- 1 man of the Tennessee delegation, re- 1 fused to allow tho banner to go Into the isles, but a group of Tennessee 1 Smith adherents insisted that it should. The police camo to McGinnis’ 1 aid, but the force of numbers finally 1 forced them away. Over in the Georgia section Ute same thing was In progress. It was a riotious demonstration ' while it lasted and for a few minutes ‘ it looked serious, but it demonstrated overwhelmingly and perhaps as nothing else could, the preponderous hold , which Gov. Smith has over this convention. Platform Builders At Work Sam Houston Hall, Houston, Tex., June 27. — (INS) —While the platform builders took off their coats today and went to it behind closed doors, the thousand-odd other delegates to the Democratic national convention trouped persplringly again to Sam Houston’s glittering pine palace for another act in the quadrennial show. Senator Joseph T. Robinson, of Arkansas. who presided over the storm San Francisco convention eight years ago and who is the probable running mate of Gov. Al Smith in this one, was the ring master of the day. His speech as permnanet chairman of this convention was calculated to still further drive home to Democrats the party needs for agreement and not dissension on the eve of the campaign. , Atest fight that may afford the first official ensight into the overwhelming power of the Smith forces appeared not improbable as the session got under way. Robinson himself likely running mate for Gov. Al Smith who seems assured of the nomination tomorrow on the first or second ballot, made a forceful plea to the delegates not to repeat the great blunder at Madison Square Garden. “United we can win,” was the burden of his speech. His advice to the convention was "peace on prohibition and a united attack on the Republican record of fraud and corruption during the past seven years.” Governor Smith leaders were urging that tlie speeches placing the New York governor and other candidates in nomination be made at to- . night's session. Franklin Roosevelt will place Governor Smith's name before the convention. “The nominating speeches will be made tonight,'' George Van Nannie, pre-convention manager for Governor Smith said. “Tlie balloting will come . later in the convention lint just when ( I cannot say." Meanwhile Donald Muir, chairman ( of tlie Kansas delegation, announced , that Kansas 20 votes will go to , Smith on the first ballot. ( Senator Robinson still appeared to- , day to be the likeliest vice presidential prospect although Senator James , A. Reed, of Misouri, was looming us , a serious rival. The Oklahoma delegation will give Governor Smith 9% of their votes and Senator Janies A. Reed 10% votes on tlie first ballot for the Democratic presidential nominee. Harmony Plays Havoc Houston. June 27—(U.R) -Harmony is playing havoc with the Democratic convention here. The deluge of brotherly love and oneness of purpose engulfing tlie delegates has wiped out the diverting qualities, fighting spirit and terrific suspense which have made history in the Democrats' national conclaves of the past. -Unbelievable as it may seem, the convention thus far has moved along such a peaceful routine patli that delegates are having trouble keeping awake. The second day of the convention opened witli clarion calls from Democrats of all hues for more and bigger noise, faster and better action and — if possible—a fight or two about something. But nothing appeared visible to the naked eye that rated a good old-fashioned Democratic quarrel and a Democratic convention without such just simply Isn't a Democratic convention. Tammany came to Houston and overwhelmed, anaesthetized, and otherwise subdued the town with votes and olive branches that the convention finds itself at a loss just how to rouse itself. It was demonstrated last night in a show that was listless compared with tlie riotous outbursts of former years. There was none of that spontaneous disorder that has made tlie Democratic conventions million-dollar shows in the past. it seemed tile convention hud taken Claude Bowels' suggestion that the Democrats were going to unite this year in one happy family and exterminate the Republicans.

FARM RELIEF IS FOREMOSTISSOE Houston, Tex., Juno 27 —(U.R)—The Fin m relief issue today took foremost place before the platform makers of the Democratic National Convention, elbowing aside the almost settled prohibition question as chief point of discussion. Moulding their strategy for the Presidential campaign, party leaders had determined to shape their platform to Invite the West against Herbert Hoover, the Republican nominee even before Claude G. Bowers' keynote speech and when Bowers' set the convention afire by his references to farm relief that issue became paramount in their minds. "We do not ask paternalistic privileges for the farmer" shouted Bowers, "Hut we drt demand that the hand of privilege shall lie taken out of the fanner's pockets and off the farmer's throat.” The Convention roue to its feet. Two men from North Dakota, bearing the delegation's place card, tramped out Into the front of tlie ball. Others foil owed and the hall was afire with mar ehers. The isine Star State flag set the crowd off into a hurst of cheers. The marchers woved about like college boys celebrating a football victory. For six minutes they num-hod. But in another sense, it was a sham battle over agriculture, prohibition and some other matters that started today when the platform coninil'tee opened its public hearings o,i the Issues to be embodied in tho party's statement of principles. It was a sham battle because lead ers already have tentatively agreed among themselves at to what will be done about versial issues; and the hearings prtJbnbly will not cause any material changes in the tentative planks. Nevertheless, eight hours were allotted for the attacks by the wets ard drys, McNary-Haugenites, Women's oiganizations, and everyone else with a pet hobby, including a man from Alaska who wants a plank to advocate moving the civilized world to the Equator to save it from destruction he says is sure to come to the Northern Hemispheres in the next few years. Model ate drys already have met with tepresentatives of Gov. Alfred E. Smith, the p.ostiective candidate, and agreed upon a plank which will pledge prohibition enforcement by name and denounce efforts of Republicans to enforce it and all laws. Just to make tlie agreement iron clad Senator Tydings of Maryland is to put in a wet plank to lie pitted agaiust extieniists’ dry plank planned liy Gov. Moody of Texas. By providing these two extremes, tlie moderates believe they will persuade both the extreme wets and drys to abandon their planks and swing into line. it matters not whether they do, because the moderates and Smith supporters control four-fifths of the con vention. o— — Decatur Men Initiated Into Order Os Pirates Walter Elzey. Frank DeVor and David Adams, of this city, motored to Fort Wayne last night, where they were members of a class of twentyseven candidates initiated into the Older of Pirates, a branch of tlie Knights of Pythias lodge. The candidates were from six cities, including seven from Fort Wayne. There is cpnsiderable talk of organizing a chapter of the order in this city in the near future. A supper was served following tlie meeting. Aliout 250 persons enjoyed tlie meal. Indigestion Gone - Gaining Weight .... - " "" -"k Suffered 25 Years. Now Eats Any- i thing. Back-Ache Ended. p Readers who have almost despaired of ever being able to eat again without intense suffering, will be interested in the experience of Mrs. W. A. Guilford, 1306 So. Cedar St., Auburn, Ind. In telling how she ended this affliction, she says: “I suffered about everything a person can imagine from stomach trouble, for 25 years. Every time I tried t» eat, Twas bloated with gas and the pains were very severe. My kidneys bothered me day and night, and my back ached almost all the time. I was constipated, dizzy, sleepless and often had sick headaches. During my last severe attack of f lost 23 pounds in weight. I couldn’t believe there was any real relief for me, but finally tried Viuna because it was so strongly recommended. It took hold of me very promptly. I began to eat without gas or pain, and today my stomach is in wonderful shape. I need no laxatives any more, my headaches and back-ache have all disappeared, my kidneys arc working fine, and I am gaining back my lost weight. It took me 25 years to find Viuna, but I hope my experience will save time and suffering for other sick folks.” Vlunil acts promptly on aliigglah bowHz, lazy liver and weak kidneys. It purlOee the blood, elram tho skin, reatorea appe tlte and digestion.and brings new strength and energy to the whole body. Take a bottle on trial. Then if you're not glad you tried Viuna. your money will be refunded. $t at druggists or mulled pos'puld by IcclaudlMedlcine Co., ludlanapolla, lud. VIUNA The Wonder Medicine Sold By CALLOW & KOHNE
