DIGNITY FADES AS LODGE TALKS (Continued From Fje One.) ness of today's prospective short session was tho Important announcement of the personnel of committee on credentials' permanent organization, rules and order of business and resolutions. The Coliseum was truly beautiful In Its flag drapings, literally hundreds of striped and starred banners being artistically festooned from Its high arch. Painters had used pea green and white, aa€ the eye caught that color scheme before the crowds came. Soon it was blotted out by the somber dark of men's clothes, relieved here and there by ~n ice cream effect, or some daring back. But the bowl of the Coliseum was fringed all about by the gayest sort of finery In women's dress, this panorama of color bathing all the balconies. Our lady reporter hail insisted that republican women at this convention were to take the business seriously, with no fluffy-minded details of fabric or color. Put mere man stood somewhat aghast at the wealth of hat md gown coloring in the receding tiers of seats. Asa matter of fact, the fashion keynote of the convention was sounded by Mrs. Albert Bnicggeman. alternate from who said: “This is a day of serious, grave endeavor by women In politics—l hope none will be conspicuously dressed." but between you and me I don't believe the note carried far, and Mrs. Brueggeman herself appeared In a handsome blue serge frock with black satin trimmings and an extremely wide and attractive hat. A feature of this convention, hitherto unseen, was the provision of a wonderful electric lighting arrangement by means of which gigantic fire lamps, sat at Intervals of twelve feet around the balconies, could be Illuminated by a simple twist of the wrist, thus converting the great coliseum interior into a scene of perfect daylight, so that motion picture chaps might turn cranks with results equal to the best obtained in California sunshine. The republican national committee provided this extraordinary and expensive arrangement and when a sudden flood of blue light burst upon the convention today it was startling In Its effect, but every one soon understood its meaning when the click of the camera was heard to proclaim that this late marvel of mechanics would permit you, In a distant city, within a few hours, to see this interestng spectacle for yourself at an outlay of a dime or two. Another Ingenious device of man was here today, making it possible for people seated at the rear of. the coliseum to hear the voice of Lodge. eTen when he dropped It almost as low as a Hanging just shore the speaker's head was a little black box, like a camera. This caught the sound and transmitted it over copper wires to the basement of the building. There a powerful accentuating generator magnified it more than a million times and tossed it back over other wires into huge megaphone horns, which were suspended from the coliseum celling, all In the twinkling- of an eye. The small Tolce on the platform was converted via the basement into a tremendous voles at the rear of the hall. The front row of delegate seats was occupied by representatives of California. North Dakota. Arkansas, Conneeicut and Vi’-<rlnla. Behind them were placed the delegates from New York. Pennsylvania and Ohio, near enough to the platform to make a lot of noise if these important delegations had trouble to make. Georgia was in the last row to the right and Alabama in the last row to the left. The chairman's platform stood up M sheer fen feet off the floor, so there was no possibility of sudden rushes from the floor of this convention Into the speaker's stand. There probably never wag before so many newspaper men gathered under one roof unless, indeed, at some publishers convention. Eight platoons of police, under the personal direction of Chief John J. Garr:ty, and a big flock of detectives, were present within and surrounding the Coliseum to preserve order. Detective# from every large city In the United States were present to spy out local j crooks. BORAH SEES RUIN IF MONEY WINS (Continued on Page Twe.) very grateful to Borah for the magnificent unselfish support be has given the fighter from California. Borah handled with remorseless bitterness the shameful revelations about bugo campaign funds, he pretended to narrate the usual "funny story" with which of living is coming home to hundreds of thousands of republican voters, men with vast •urns of money are seeking to control the situation without offering any solution whatever of the real question at Issue. As time goea on, these practical features of the situation grow more and more acute, and in my opinion, Instead of these men growing stronger, they will grow weaker by Thursday. I attended the great mass meeting at which Col. Roosevelt speke in 1912 and one of the great mass meetings in 1916. I had the honor of speaking with Col. RooseveK in 1912. I was at the great mass meeting held by Senator Johnson last eight. The feeling upon the part of the people is more intense In regard to all. these questions, such as the league of nations, the high cost of living, the use {Ceil of shameless sums of money In the campaign, than upon any questions which are presented to them in the previous years. If this convention does not speak plainly snd expliclty and In language that the wayfaring man may read and understand upon these matters ami nominate a candidate in perfect harmony with such a platform, no one can foretell the future political history of this country. I haven’t any doubt myself as to what wrlll happen nnder these circumstances In the convention. The delegates are not insensible to the political situation and Jo the political atmosphere. By the time we get down to business on Thursday or Friday we will write a people's platform and nominate a people's candidate. , As • republican I do not permit myself to think anything else. One thing is quite clear, the develop-

Under these circumstances these dele- j gates arc not going back to their people to tell those who are struggling with the high cost of living about bow they have written a platform and nominated a candidate under the directing Influences of those who have millions to throw away in campaigning. My guess is that the delegates will clarify and cleanse the situation; that the great party with Its magnlficant bis-

Orange Street Mrs. Willi* Wills. 1421 Orange street, gave the following statement June 23, 1936: “I was troubled with my back and kidneys. My back pained almost constantly and hurt terribly when I bent over to sweep or dust. Sharp palus would catch me In ait back and I could hardly straighten up again. Specks would float before my eyes, blurring my sight, and I always felt down-hearted and miserable. I began taking Doan's Kidney Tills and iu almost no time was completely cured.

tory will enter upon another era of service to the country and to humanity, stripped of all handicap and freed of all embarrassments. If we could go home with this kind of a platform and candidate to harmonize we could carry every state north of Mason and Dixon's line and break the solid south. But If our course be different, our future Is Involved In shallows and misery. But the course will not be different. These are men here who propose that it shall not be different and there are enough of them to make It impossible, it seems to me.

TREATY RIPPED INTO TATTERS (Continued on Page Two.) speaker than Senator Johnson. His logic Is clear and penetrating, without being harah. He rises to climaxes, but never tears a passion to tatters. He held the attention and rewarded those who listened with as fine a specimen of foreuslc oratory as they are likely to hear. He was as extreme as Senator Johnson In his attack on the treaty and, like Senator Johnson, shifted responsibility for continued profiteering from a republican congress to a democratic administration. / This plan of avoiding the issue has very decided partisan advantages. There being no legislation necessary, the delegates escape tho difficulty of outlining specific remedies; the candidates can be pledged by the platform to enforce the law without being committed to any definite remedies in case existing law should be found to be Insufficient. But Senator Borah made his strongest hit when he went after the large expenditures of money by two of the republican candidates. He told of two Roman politicians who sought to purchase tlie highest office by open bidding, the office being finally knocked down for what was equivalent to $2,500,000 In our money. lie feigned Indignation at the attempt to purchase the greater honor of the presidency for so small a sum as a million and a half. He would not be content with the defeat of these lavish candidates, but thought they deserved to be excluded from the list of candidates. It was a great meeting and the audience enjoyed the speeches Immensely. If the speeches at the Johnson meeting are a fair sample of what we are to hear when the fight is on in earnest over platform planks and presidential candidates, those who attend the convention will be well repaid for time and trouble. The word “harmony” is not written large so far; we shall see shortly whether the compulsion of tho campaign can suppress the vital differences and bring forth an agreement between these hostile groups.

Mr back was ao sore and lame I eould hardly bend over and when I did, 6bnrp pains would catch me in my back. My kidneys were Irregular In action nnd the secretlous were highly colored and otherwise unnatural. Two boxes of Doan s Kidney Pills completely cured me.” Some time later Mr. McCoy added: “I haven t needed to use any medicine for my kidneys since I last gave a statement telling of the merits of Doan's Kidney Dills. The cure Doan's gave me at that time has remained permanent and I gladly renew my former words ol praise.” Southeastern Avenue Wra.

They need not deceive themselves with the idea that If they fall to get the republican they want, they will get some democrat just ns good. This la to be no substitute campaign. While Johnson nnd Borah were speaking last night, William Jennlngii Bryan, with fierce eagle eye and keen attention, was reporting the meeting. Borah looked at him constantly while talking of President Wilson and preposterous peace league. At the end of the meeting Bryan, was, as usual, warmly greeted by those near him, and something new happened to him. OVATION FOR BRYAN AT JOHNSON MEETING. Tho crow shouted to him. urging him to vote for Johnson, and some In tho crowd shouted to others nearer Bryan, “go over and convert him to Johnson.” Having heard those two speeches and watched tha crowd, Mr. Bryan, a sincere, honest man. knows, and will not deny, that Johnson is, by at least 1,000 per cent, the most popular candidate In either party. Ho will be elected as the republican candidate, or if the republicans will It so, as an Independent candidate, defeating both the old parties. Johnson will run for the presidency this fall.

The \; ■ $ Evening Mail New York City , The advance from 2 cents to 3 cents in the price of the Evening Mail, becoming operative today, xvill not prevent the families in New York City, accustomed to reading the paper for many years, from continuing to buy it. The Mail has never been a mass paper; it has never sought volume of circulation. This is„ not because of lack of sympathy for or appreciation of the masses, hut New Ycrk City has several publishers with millions at their command to reach out and get millions of readers. The Mail, edited by Henry L. Stoddard, who was bom in * Greenwich Village, New York City, never had millions with which to build up a big circulation. He had to move cautiously and conservatively in money matters. He knows New York people, however. He has lived among them all his life.

He lias conducted the Mall on the idea that he could make a paper that at least 100,000 New York families would take -nto their homes and like and respect it It took several years to -get 100,000 families to appxeciate the Mail, but the day came when Mr. Stoddard could proudly announce 100,000 net paid circulation. That was ten years ago. I remember the occasion distinctly, because at that time 1 was one of the staff’ and participated in the big celebration that marked this big event in the life of the paper. Afterwards, the circulation grow nearly 10,000 yearly, until It finally reached a sure, dependable average net paid circulation of 150,000. During the past year a remarkable thing has happened to the Mail. The old readers have fiever been weaned frem It and never will. They will stick until they die. Their places will be takon by their- descendants, for the Mail- is strongly intrenched In the family circle. During the past few months the masses have shown a desire to read the Mail. No effort has been made to secure a large volume of circulation. The Mail has not changed, in any respect, its quality or its character. It travels along steadily, day by day, printing a good, reliable, thorough enterprising newspaper. There has been wonderful growth in circulation during the past few months, so much so that up to the time I left New York last Saturday to come to the contention of the Associated Advertising Club* of the World it had passed the 200,000 mark. This volume circulation at the ,2-cent price would, if maintained for a year, entail a net loss of over $150,000, representing the difference between the cost of print paper and the money received from news dealers. Mr. Stoddard frankly says he can not afford to face this loss, and he will not unfairly advance advertising rates In order to put the whole burden on advertisers. He thinks readers will keep on buying the Mail. His experience justifies this belief. At any rate, he does not intend to manufacture a product and sell it at a loss. He is right. It is not good business to do so. Neither is it sensibld. . People should buy and read a newspaper, based on its merits and its , usefulness to the community in which it is printed. If they buy it on any other basis, they do not respect it or regard it as a good newspaper. Mr. Stoddard proposes to direct his newspaper on sound business principles. rfe believes and so do I, that both readers and advertisers will stand by him in his efforts. I will have more to say on this subject tomorrow. - Sincerely yours, ■ William G. Freeman, 125 Riverside Drive, N. Y..
