GENEVIVE CLARK IS SPECTATOR AT BRYANWATERLOO Hears Man-Who Kept Father From White House Booed and Hissed, By FRAZER EDWARDS United Press Staff Correspondent MADISON SQPARE GARDEN, NEW YORK, July 3. —Twelve years ago a young woman with dreams of having the White House as her home and her father head of the nation, followed, day after day. the balloting in a Democratic convention where her father had a majority. After years of patient, political struggle the highest honor in the land seemed within her father's grasp. Then a wrathful spirit descended. The dream was broken, and in the cold light of a political day, the young woman saw her father hurled from the heights he had reached, and he came back to her crushed, weary, the realization of his greatest ambi tion gone forever. Baltimore in 1912 This was in Baltimore in 1912. The young woman was Genevive Clark, daughter of Champ Clark of Missouri, speaker of the House of Representatives and the leading candidate for the Democratic nomination that year. The other figure in the drama was William Jennings Bryan. He arose in the convention and attacked Clark as being an instrument of Wall Street. He talked of the Morgans. the Ryans and the Belmonts. Clark was beaten. Woodrow Wilson was nominated. But there is a law of compensation, and in the heat of the fight yesterday, when Bryan again took the convention platform to speak of candidates, the young woman who had dreamed twelve years ago stood directly in front of the platform from which he spoke. She heard Bryan, now a graying old warrior, almost booed and hissed from the platform. She heard ex pletives hurled at him by men who were once his ardent followers. She heard him laughed at. She saw him finish his speech, not with the flourish of former days when he stampeded conventions, but trailing away uncertainly amid cries of “oil, oil. oil.” Champ Clark is dead, but if spirits of the departed hover near their loved ones, then that of Clark must know' that his faithful daughter wit nessed passing of the power that broke his heart, and stood in the foremost ranks of those who were ready to give battle.

By CHARLES X. LANDON NEA Service Artist “JEW YORK. July 3.—The bosses are stumped. i__J The women are making themselves useful as well as ornamental in politics. To them politics is something more than a game in which moves are made to attain patronage and other advantages—to the bosses. They are out to back candidates and issues which they believe to be a credit to the party. They are confining their games to bridge and mah jongg. The bosses faced these facts at the Democratic national convention at Madison Square Garden. And instead of offering them resolutions to read fi m the speakers' platform and acting on committees controlled by men they are trying

Reviving an old suit the Cincin nati, Indianapolis & Western Rail' road today filed two petitions in a Cincinnati (Ohio) court to break contracts under which it pays two thirteenths of operating expenses of the Indianapolis Union Station. Other roads pay one-thirteenth each. The double assessment of the C.. I. & W. is due to its assuming contracts of another road in a merger several years ago. C., I & W. contends the apportionment should be adujsted so each road pays one-twelfth. Guard Company Inspected The new combined headquarters company, of headquarters detachment, 38th Division, Indiana National Guara, was inspected at division headquarters, 522 N.

to figure out a way to keep them “put.” At the Democratic convention they turned everything upside down. They led the delegation cheering and led demonstrations which threatened to carry the convention off its feet. They made speeches and remarkably good ones. Not the spreadeagle sort, but hard-headed remarks which bristled with facts. When the convention started, the party leaders viewed their cheering with amused expressions but when they threw a monkey wrench into the machinery by leading siz;*b!e demonstrations on the floor of the convention, their expressions changed. The gavel had to be used with considerable force to stop them. What the old party leaders are trying to figure out is where this

new force in swaying the emotions of a national convention is leading them. Women announced the votes of their States on the roll calls in tho race for the presidential nominations; they challenged the accuracy of the votes announced by the male chairmen of some of the delegations; they argued like veterans when the more seasoned politicians tried to control their votes. It was Mrs. M Lrie Cooley of Georgia who changed her mind at the historic Saturday night session after voting to name the Ku-Klux Klan in the platform condemning secret political organizations and thereby determined an important plank in the Democratic platform. Those who saw the remarkable demonstrations led by women at the convention will agree that the bosses have a job on their hands.

Turn over the section removed from the right, which brings the white stripe into the middle’, and join it to the blue portion which is attached to the staff.
