BALTIMORE

THE MECCA T WEEK "When the Twenty-first Na- " tional Democratic Convention Will Be Held in the Oriole City. .(National News Association) WASHINGTON, D. C., June 21 !The convention which "opens at Baltipiore next Tuesday will be the twentyfirst national assemblage of the Demo1 ratlc party, while the one now in ses- ! ilon in Chicago is only the fifteenth ' Republican national gathering. But the lemoratic" party surpasses the Republican in age much more than this difference would Indicate. Born in the bank controversy of 1791, christened by Jefferson, its founder, in 1792, and strengthened in the division among the people which Washington's neutrality proclamation at the beginning 'of the Anglo-French war in 1793 caused. the Democratic party passed its ; centennial mark more than a decade 'ago. i But the history of the party's con'ventions dates back only to 1832, In i which year the national delegate contention method of nominating candidates for President and Vice President j was adopted. The first national Demoi cratic convention was held on May 12, 1 1832, at Baltimore, and adopted two , rules which have guided the actions Of all subsequent conventions. One of : these provided that the delegates, when so instructed, should cast the votes of their States as a unit, and (the other that no candidate should be nominated without a two-thirds' n.&Jority. Andrew Jackson was nomiiipted for President and Martin Van tftaren for Vice President. They were ; lected. The second national Democratic contention met on May 25, 1836, also at j Baltimore, and nominated Martin Van ! Buren for President and Richard M. i Johnson for Vice President. The ticket I was successful in the subsequent elecPolk Beats Van Buren. The third convention, held on May 6, 1840,' jit Baltimore, renominated Van Bureh, but named no candidate (for Vice President, leaving that to the several States. It also put forward the I first complete platform ever adopted j by: the party. Parts of this platform i were incorporated into the deliverance iof every national Democratic conven tion prior to the civil war, and its leading ideas have reappeared in many of the- party platforms of the last 50 years. i In 1844 the national Democratic con'Vention; again assembled in Baltimore. Van Bureri had a majority of the instructed delegates for his nomination. JVice President. Unfortunately for Van j Buren h was not on the popular side .'in regards to the burning question of tbe aniexation of Texas. Again the ' ;two-thiids rule was introduced, and i asurel Van Buren's defeat. After a j three lays' struggle the nomination 'was grn to Polk. In the convention of 1848, also in Baltlmfre, took place' the first of the great walk-outs" In Democratic na- ' tional jssemblages, the others being in 1860 id 1896. The party in New York fas divided into two hostile factions.! The national convention ' attempt to patch up a truce between 'them by, admitting the delegations Iwhlq each chose, allowing each to jcastpall th'i votes. The result was 'thatthe action whose choice was de- ; rfefttju lalignantly withdrew from the tconJenlon.

William D. King of Alabama was nominated for Vice President, but did not live to fill the office. The convention which met at Cincinnati, on June 2, 1856, lasted four days end resulted in the nomination of James Buchanan of Pennsylvania for President and John C. Breckinridge of Kentucky for Vice President. The most fateful convention which was ever held in the United States vas that which opened at Charleston, H. C, on April 23, 1860, which lasted ten days and took 57 unavailing ballots and which split the party into a Northern and Southern section, each of Tvhich had a separate convention in another place and put up a ticket of its own. One faction named Stephen A. Douglas of Illinois and Herschel V. Johnson of Georgia, while the other nominated John C. Breckinridge of Kentucky and Joseph Lane of Oregon. Both were defeated at the polls by Abraham Lincoln and Hannibal Hamlin, Republicans. The main purpose for holding the Democratic national convention which met in Chicago on August 30, 1864, was to prevent the party organization from going wholly to pieces. The convention adopted a platform which declared the war a failure and nominated Gen. George B. McClellan of New Jersey for President and George H. Pendieton of Ohio for Vice President. Only three states ratified the convention's action. In the convention of 1868, the only one ever held in New York, Horatio Seymour of New York was named for President and F. P. Blair of Missouri for Vice President. This ticket was easily beaten by the Republican ticket of Grant and Colfax. The 1872 convention of the Democrat --was held at Baltimore. It accepted Horace Greeley, the nominee of the seceding element of the Republican party, and named B. Gratz Brown of Missouri for Vice President, but the regular Republicans in. that year repeated their victory of 1868. In their convention of 1876, in St. Louis, the Democrats nominated their strongest and ablest man, Samuel J. Tilden of New York, with Thomas A. I Hendricks of Indiana for Vice Presij dent. They came within one vote in the electoral college of electing their ticket. Record Since 1876. Since 1876 the national conventions and nominees of the Democratic party have been as follows: J880, at Cincinnati, Gen. Winfleld S. Hancock, of Pennsylvania for President and William M. English of Indiana for Vice President. 1884, at Chicago, Grover Cleveland of New York for President and Thom as A.

A noted lawyer of Tennessee, -who la. bored under the defects of having a high temper and of being deaf, walked into a courtroom presided over by a younger man, of? whom the older practitioner had a small opinion. Presently, in the hearing of a motion, there was a clash between the lawyer and the judge. The judge ordered the lawyer to sit down, and as the lawyer, being deaf, didn't hear him and went on talking, the judge fined him $10 for contempt. The lawyer leaned toward the clerk and cupped his hand behind his ear. "What did he say?" he inquired. "He fined you $10," explained the clerk. "For what?" "For contempt of court," said the clerk. The lawyer shot a poisonous look toward the bench and reached a hand Into his pocket. "I'll pay it." he said. "It's a just debt" Saturday Evening Post Russia's Chief Admiral.

CHILDREN NEED ATTEflTlOfl

A Humane Officer Could Look After Abused Children as Well as Horses and Dogs.--American Habit of Bawling Responsible for Quality of Voice.

BY ESTHER GRIFFIN WHITE. The Humane Society's attention might be called to several things. Among them the little carts in which children are pushed or hauled about. Any day you can see poor little j youngsters with scared faces holding on to the handles while they are roughly jostled on and off the curbing and all but spilled into the street Even were the carts carefully handled the positions very little children occupy in these barbarously constructed hand-vehicles are often hurtful. And cries of pain are frequently heard from the little creatures as they are jostled from a high side-walk to a street crossing. These things are inhuman unless very carefully used and adjusted and even at that are of no advantage in developing the physique of a child. The truth is that children need looking after as well as the horses and dogs. Cattle and sheep and finely bred animals of all classes are, oftener than not, given more attention than children. One of the best known short stories of the day is that of Mary E. V'Ukins, ; whose subject was the "Revolt of Mother," the well-to-do farmer's wife who had been promised for thirty years or so a decent house to live in and who, upon the completion of a splendid new barn with every "modern convenience" and architecturally effective, executed the recall and moved , into the barn from whence she did not budge until the foundation for a new residence was under way. Ride through the country any day hereabouts and you will see this sort of thing. Big, well-kept barns adjacent to shabby old houses. Conveniences for the lower animals but few for the humans. The president of the humane society said the other evening that dogs were given more protection under the law at this time than some classes of men. ' And a humane officer, if one were appointed for this city, should look after the abuse of children. People are unconsciously cruel. And consciously. A woman told the writer that on every Saturday night any time verging on midnight a child was heard passing her house, presumably with its parents and, from its voice, but a few years old. The child was invariably crying with fatigue. And begging to be "taken up." The parents were just as invariably shouting at it to "shut up!" "Stop that or I'll lick you!" 'What's the matter with you any way you little brat you," and frequently she. had heard the resounding slap across the street and the fry of torror, and . pain from the child. If there had been a humane officer, said this woman, she would have had the case investigated. Evidently the parents went down town on Saturday night, dragging their poor little child from, pillar to post, and then, when it was sick with fatigue, scolded and slapped and berated it. Perhaps these parents were unaware of the fact that they were being cruel. But ordinary human instinct would seem to contradict this attitude. Very few persons seem to realize, either, that children who are little more than babies, can't walk as fast as their elders. The commonest everyday sight is to see some man or woman striding along holding a child's hand, the latter on a half-run, half-trot, perhaps on his tip-toes. Nothing is more injurious than this. Children have been injured for life through just such careless handling. Others through indiscriminate slapping, jerking, beating and actual brutality. And these children are not necessarily found in the less prosperous districts. The truth is that a lot of people take out their own ill-tempers on their children. Its because they are "mad" not because the children are bad. If children are beaten and cuffed and kicked and berated they will do the same to other smaller children when they grow a little larger. If you yell and shriek and scream at a child, it will do the same to you and to everybody else. The force of example Is overwhelming and terrific. Public Sale Saturday. June 22, 1912 2 O'clock P.

Children are imitative before anything else. Sometime when you're whooping at the top of your voice at Johnnie and Susie and Jimmie and Billy just stop a

. moment and listen to the echo of your own voice, If you're not thoroughly ashamed of yourself, you are outside the pale. "A low voice is an excellent thing in woman," is as true of men. And there are mighty few people with low voices. The American habit is to talk in the highest register, to pitch the vocal organ to the most superlative key. Rarely do you find people talking In what is known as a "conversational tone." They scream and shout and yell and bawl. This tonal quality is laid to the climate. When it is more to the' American habit of exaggeration. We exaggerate in speech and we do the same in tone. Americans have little repose. When you find one who has this incomparable possession he, or she. I stands out like a figure in the spotlight. But the almost universal habit of screaming and bawling at children is as responsible for the celebrated American voice as any other one thing. If a little control was exercised in stead of a giving away to every whim Df temper, and children were also taught this invaluable temperamental asset, the next generation of Americans would speak in a different key. There is a vast deal to be done among the children as among, the horses and dogs and a humane officer would be welcomed.
