IT IS ALL COOLIDGE fMfident'i Wishes Are Followed to the Letter--Wl^ consin Alone Is Dissentnif Vokp^ ; THE REPUBLICAN TICKET For President, CALVIN COOLIDGE Of MASu SACHUSETTS. For Vice President, CHARLES G. DAWES ILLINOIS. OF #y COWARD W. PICKARflPc ' . Cleveland, Ohio.--Calvin Ooolldge's national convention has been held, and up to the final session it was the Quietest, smoothest, most peaceful affair ever held in this country, unless one excepts Woodrow Wilson's convention In St. Louis eight years ago. It was really Mr. Coolldge's convention, gath-j ered to do Just what he wanted done and to leave undone the things he did not want done. Mr. Coolldge wished to be nominated to succeed himself in the Presidential office. He was nominated. For his running mate he naturally wished a man who could hold the support of certain elements In the party that were wavering (in their allegiance, but he refused to name the man. It was an open race with a dozen entries, and it resulted in an incident that had but one precedent in American political history* Despite repeated refusals to be a _ candidate, Frank O. Lowden of Illinois was made the favorite, received the largest vote on the first ballot, was nominated on the second ballot, and the nomination was made unanimous. Apparently it was all over, but there came over the wires a message from Lowden, positively declining the honor. _In some confusion the directors of the convention obtained a recess until evening, and William M. Butler, manager for Coolidge and now the new chairman of the national committee, after much consulatlon, passed around the word that Secretary Hoover would be most acceptable to him. General Dawes, he said, would do, but Hoover was preferred. Reassembling, the delegations on the third ballot began shifting to Hoover so fast that his •election seemed certain. Then came A change. With loud whoops, big Wocks of votes were thrown into the Dawes column. The enthusiasm of the middle westerners carried along the delegates of other states and long before the end of the ballot waa reached "Helen Maria" had won. Mr. Butler, beaten in one thing, had nothing to aay. and on motion off Senator James Wataon of Indiana, who had himself been a contender for the place, the nominatlea of Dawes was made unanimous. For the second time a man had declined a vice presidential nomination after it waa given him and a national conventioL had twice made selection of a candidate for second place on its ticket. TT» first time this occurred in 1844. The Democratic convention that i»ominatfcd K_ Polk for President gs^e second place on the ticket to Senator Si<aa Wright of New Tort he recrfvtat 23C TOUS oat of 2m. Senator Wrtjcti*,. declined and next day George M Dallas of Pennsylvania was ^wtilriatfod to be Polk's running mate. Ceetodgefs Convention Mr. Coolidg* selected for temporary AslTtoan of the convention Congressttsn Theodore E. Burton of Ohio and told that gentleman what hit views were on all the mooted public question* of the day--if be did not already know them--and Mr. Burton in his keynote speech faithfully reproduced „ sil those views. Mr. Coolldge chose for permanent chairman Frank W. Mondell of Wyoming, because as vice citairmaa of the War Finance corporation which has loaned much money to agricultural Interests Mr. Mondell might be considered acceptable to the rather disgruntled fanners. So Mr. Mondell presided over the convention after the opening of the second session. Mr. Coolidge had positive opinions concerning the platform on which he would have to stand during the campaign, so out of all the planks fashioned by the numerous interests that sought to have a hand in the building of that platform, were carefully picked the ones that conformed strictly with these opinions, and all the rest were thrown into the discard by the resolutions committee headed by Ambassador Warren, who was Mr. Coolidge's •election for the place of chairman. No reflection on President Coolldge , nor on the Republican party Is intended in recording this seeming dictation by the Chief Executive. The conditions not only Justified It but made It Inevitable. The rank and file of the party had. In the selection of Instructed delegates, made known Its Arm intention to nominate Mr. Coolldge, and the political and legislative •rents of recent months made it evl- 4 '* MTiW• CALVIN COOLIDGE dent that his preferences and opinions must be put above all else. Significant Change* Outside the convention hall. In the rooms where the various state delegations met to organize and name their representatives on the committees, another mandate of the mass of the party was carried out The old line leaders were relegated to the rear and the management put Into new hands. Thus the Massachusetts delegation took its chairmanship away from Senator Lodge and gave It to Governor Cox, and the man who had for so long dictated to the Bay state Republicans was not even put on the platform committee. The efforts of Harry Daugherty's friends In the Ohio delegation to rehabilitate him came to naught when Maurice Maschke was chosen as national committeeman, Senator Willis as chairman of the delegation and Simeon D. Fess was put on the committee on resolutions. So It went, not in all the delegations, but In enough to show that a revolution In party management was under way. Senator Lodge was as suave and smiling as ever, and as tired looking, but his smile had a touch of bitterness, and many another former leader was in the dumps sis he saw his power fading away. There was bnt one* discordant element in the convention--the LaFollette delegation from Wisconsin. All but one of Its members were selected to vote for the Badger senator and to present to the platform committee the planks representing his views. Their action of course was known far In advance and so was discounted, bat to some of the members of the party It waa no less ominous. They got Into action early with a set of resolutions of which the following is a synopsis: Housecleanlng pledged. Monoply--crush, not foster. Becover oil preserves. Vigorous prosecution of grafters. Bevlse public domain legislation. Public ownership of water power. Super water power systems. Public control and conservation of natural resources. Repeal Esch-Cummlns law. Make rates on prudent Investment and cost of service. Railroads--public ownership, final solution. Reduce federal taxes.1 ' Curtail the 800 millions now spent annually for the army and navy. Recover war stealings. Collect foreign loan interest Oppose Mellon tax plan. Amend Constitution to permit a reenactment to supersede a judicial veto. Reduce tariff. Promote co-operation between producers and consumers. Reduce freight rates for farmers. Abolish injunctions In labor disputes. Grant cash bonus to ex-soldlers. Provide Gceat Lake* waterway, Amend Constitution to provide for direct nomination and election of President, federal initiative and referendum and referendum on war. Revise Versailles treaty to comply with terms of armistice, promote treaties to outlaw war, abolish conscription, reduce armaments and guarantee referendums on peace and war. There were some other planks, but these are enough to Indicate the kind of a platform Senator LaFollette demanded. He and everyone else knew they would be turned down by the committee and rejected by the convention. so no one was surprised or shocked when that was done. But upon such a platform, It was assumed, LaFollette would stand as an Independent candidate for the Presidency. What would be the effect of his candidacy was naturally a fruitful topic of discussion among the delegates and other visitors. Many Women Delegate** Women were prepared to play a conspicuous part In the convention. There were more than 600 delegates and alternates of the gentler sex, nearly every state giving them place In Its delegation. Even far away Hawaii sent one--Princess David Kawananakoa-- and she was made an associate member of the national committee. In social usage she retains her title, but she is said to be thoroughly one of the people and a power among the Republican voters of the islands. Temporary Chairman Burton overlooked the women when he wrote his address and had the advance copies printed, but he noticed the omission and Interpolated a graceful paragraph warmly welcoming them to the party's councils. They were ready to do their share of the work, but really there was nothing much for them to do. It had all been arranged beforehand, and some of them were a bit peeved. They had a lot of pet Ideas, but only a few of them, notably Mrs. A. T. Hert of Kentucky, were seriously consulted by the men who formulated the program. Mrs. Medlll MeCormlck, wife of the senator from Chicago, said: "They have steam rollered the whole thing nicely. Those who are going to be elected have everything to say about the convention and the appointments and activities, and those who are elected and hold party office have nothing to say and can only go back home and work for the campaign." This was largely true at the time It was said, but a few hours later the men gave their sense of fair' play a chance and accorded to the women equal participation In party management by giving them full membership on the national committee. Five of the most prominent of the ladies went before the committee on rules and order of business and pleaded that the example set by the Democrats four years ago should be followed. Two or three of the men were obstinate, but the majority of the committee yielded and their report on this matter was adopted by the convention with nearly every woman In the hall standing and shouting as loud as she could. Another thing this committee did, which also was approved by the convention, was to reduce the delegate representation of the southern states which always go Democratic. The convention of 1920 directed the national committee to work this reform, but It had refused to obey. In this convention there was no outspoken opposition to the change. To make It more binding, an additional member of the national committee was given to each states that exceeds a given Republican vote in the last preceding national election. Genuine Enthusiasm To tell In detail the story of the convention would be superfluous; to read It would be tedious. But It had its high lights and Interesting phases. Regular attendants on such gatherings always ar$ on the lookout for "ovations" and outbursts of enthusiasm frequently are suspicious of the genuineness of such demonstrations. The first session, however, witnessed several that were undoubtedly genuine. The first came toward the close of Temporary Chairman Burton's speech when he first mentioned President Coolldge by name. And It really wasn't so much the mention of the name that evoked loud and long cheering as what Mr. Burton said. This was it: "With some disappointment, as one whose public service has been In a legislative position, truth compels me to say that by far the greater share of our citizenship looks, to President Coolldge rather than to congress for leadership." All over the great public hall delegates and spectators rose to their feet to applaud this statement, and even many of the senators and representatives who have set themselves in opposition to the President over and over again joined in the hand-clapping. Another demonstration that seemed real was the ovation given Secretary of the Treasury Andrew Mellon. During the formalities of completing the temporary organization he rose from the midst of the Pennsylvania delegation to make a trlfillng motion. At once the convention burst into almost wild cheering and the secretary was compelled to mount to the platform and acknowledge It. The man who runs the country's finances might welj feel flattered by the reception given him. Just after this incident a bit of real sentiment was injected into the proceedings. The chair announced that there was present the sole surviving member of the Republican convention that nominated Abraham Lincoln for CHARLES a DAWES St Joseph, Mich.1^ The venerable gentleman was led to the front and the cheering host arose to greet him, and listened with respect to his brief response. That Congressman Burton In his keynote speech accomplished with great skill a difficult task was admitted by all. He could not entirely overlook the breach that has existed between the administration and congress, nor could he be too emphatic In placing the blame for it. But he recognized the change that was coming over the party management and gave the President full measure of praise. At the same time he said little that could offend the most sensitive of those Republican members of congress who have been in opposition to the administration's policies. Nominating Cootid&(. An easier task and no less admirably performed was that which fell to the lot of the other Burton--Marlon Leroy, president of the University of Michigan. As his friend of muny years' standing he was chosen by Mr. Coolldge to make the nominating speech on Thursday, and no more eloquent and sincere speech has been heard In a national convention. It was not flowery nor was It political. It was a sympathetic setting forth of the qualities of Mr. Coolldge as the speaker conceived them, a heartfelt tribute to his character, his stern uprightness and honesty, his unfaltering courage and his capacity for the leadership of his party and his country. "My function is to present the man," said Dr. Burton. "The emphasis must be Just there. My primary task does not concern politics nor platforms as such. Anyone will tell you he is 'one of us' and he Is. In keeping with his real qualities I shall make no effort to exult him lor he does not need It. He Is not a superman and would be the last to think so. There la not a trace of show or ostentation about him for he does nothing merely for appearance. He may be an example but he would never set one." A little later Dr. Burton said: "He has moral fibre. To me It Is his distinguishing characteristic. There is a moral grandeur about him which does credit to American life. You simply cannot think of him as soft or flabby, lie aims actually to do what he knows he ought to do." And again: "In the largest sense of the term he Is a patient man. He knows that time will do Its perfect work. He instinctively takes the long look. He makes a calm, unhurried, steady approach to the tasks of life. No one can throw him Into a panic, for he sees steadily and sees it as a whole. He cannot please every one. Therefore some, for the time, become hostile and critical. This man. In a very remarkable way, takes his punishment quietly and silently." Guards the Future Continuing, Doctor Barton said. In part: "At times he must oppose what appears to some as an unqualified good, because he recognises its temporary benefits and. sees In the distant future that It must work an evil to society. Through all such experiences he walks with the spirit of human understanding. He knows that time will heal the hurt. His sense of time explains the thoroughness of his work and his intolerance for superficiality. He must have the facts as first hand and will not base decisions on a partial knowledge of the situation. He will not be hurried. He avoids extremes and loves proportion. Life does not consist of detached unrelated events. It is a unity welded together by the alcliefhy of time. He knows how to wait and not be tired by waiting. When he acts you know he will not be Impetuous, because he takeg time to think to the soul of things. Democracy, In her careless blundering confidence, Is in dire need of such leadership. " "Here, then, is the man. He follows 'right and truth to their logical conclusions.' He gathered It all up tn an address he delivered a year ago at a college commencement. He said, 'We do not need more national development, we need more spiritual development We need more knowledge, we need more character. We do not need more government, we need more culture. We do not need more law, we need more religion. We do not need more of the things that are seen, we need more of the things that are unseen.' Reded as "Conservative?9^. "In America we have the curious practice of classifying men. We attempt to put labels on them and Imagine that thereby we have settled something. We have unusual facility In this method because we rarely pause to agree on any definition of the terms. "As a matter of fact it Is not the meaning of the term that gives us concern. It is the implication it carries, its flavor or its color. We say a man is a conservative, a liberal or a radical and for us the term carries praise or approbrium, depending entirely upon our own point of view. Now, this man's Americanism comes to lofty expression in what some have praised and others have criticized as his 'conservatism.' Let us examine the actual facts. "He uses the past for the future. He Is no mere worshiper of the past as the past It has meaning chiefly as a guide for the future. He recognizes clearly the evils of dead, congealed, conservatisms. His emphasis is on the days tc come. He is concerned chiefly about our tendencies. Therefore, he says, 'We review the past, not In order that we may return to it, but that we may find in what direction, straight and clear, it points In the future. His Is a sane forward-looking conservatism. "He does not concede that the present clamor for change proves that our national principles are false or that our governmental organisation is weak. Changes must come. Every sane person recognizes that. The real question concerns the causes of our discontent and the sources of our evil. Immediately to destroy existing institutions, because human frailties continue to exist and human nature Is not speedily reformed. Is scarcely to be called wise leadership. To destroy Is easy, but to achieve freedom is hard. "In fact, he holds that there are genuine grounds for optimism. It is easy to complain and to overlook the great blessings of life. After all Is said and done, America, more than any other country In the world today, otters real privileges and opportunities. "He knows that progress wiH require hard unrelenting toll. To him a better future means continuous struggle and presents a constant challenge. He Is no day dreamer, for he knows the stern realities of a work-a-day world. We cannot legislate mankind Into a state of perfection." Here is Dr. Burton's closing paragraph, which was the signal for a mighty outburst of cheering that lasted for many minutes: "As self-respecting individuals, we can trust this man. As lovers of America we can follow one who is supremely American. As citizens with Interests as broad as humanity we can accept his guidance into a new and larger world leadership becauSe he Is at heart a human being. To the national convention of the greatest party In American history, I have the distinction to present as candidate (A succeed himself as President of the United States of America, the virile man--the staunch American--the real human being--Calvin Coolldge." There was, of course, but one ballot' for the Presidential nomination. Mr* Oooildge received 1,065 votes. LaFollette got 28 Wisconsin votes and 6 from North Dakota. Hiram Johnson! was given 10 votes by South Dakota, The chairman of the South Dakota delegation moved that the nominations be made unanimous, and everyone voted for this except the 28 LaFollette men from Wisconsin. Second-Place Fight Before the convention started on the Job of naming the vice presidential candidate the rumors of "Instructions" from Washington were flying about the hall and the hotel lobbies, one of them being that the edict had gone forth that no senator was to be nominated. Secretary Hoover was believed by many to be the administration's first choice. Others said Mr. Coolldge wanted* Mr. Lowden. Probably the President did not seek to dictate, but .Mr. Butler, his manager, probably did, a little later, and was frustrated. Hoover was not even mentioned on the two first ballots. There was a definite plan concocted by certain leaders to nominate Congressman Burton of Ohio on the second ballot but the Lowdenltes broke that up. The Burton effort was In reality made by those who were afraid the choice of the convention would be Judge Kenyon of Iowa, who had received a large enough vote to worry the conservatives. Mr. Lowden had repeatedly said he would not accept the nomination, but his admirers kept 'on voting for him and, as it Is told above, they won out on the second ballot Being informed by wire that the convention bad insisted on thrusting the honor upon him, he promptly replied to Chairman Mondell as follows: "Telegram Just received. I am deeply grateful for the action of the convention. However, I have said a thousand times, I think, that I would decline If nominated, and I must keep my word. To yield now would mean the loss of my self-respect I shall do what I can for Republican success as a private citizen, but I cannot aocept a place on the ticket." Then came the recess, the urgent consultations, the attempt to put over Hoover and the final victory of Gen. Charles M. Dawes, as related in the early part of this narrative. President Coolldge, following the events In Cleveland by radio, was pleased when Lowden was nominated, disappointed when he declined, and satisfied when Dawes was chosen. He telegraphed at once to the general: "It will be a pleasure to be associated with you In the public service. Best wishes to you and Mrs. Dawes In which Mrs. Coolidge Joins." Then be turned off the radio and retired. __ The Convention City TIRED NO MORE Crrw Credit to LjdSaE. Pinklianfa Vegetable Comand.

Tto much cannot be said in pralss of the way In which the city of Cleveland did its part in making the conventlon pleasant and successful First and most Important, It provided Public hall, the finest place In which a national convention has ever been privileged to meet excepting that In which the Democrats gathered in San Fran> cIsco in 1910. Public hall cost the people of Cleveland $6,300,000 and la located In the heart of the downtown district, convenient to the hotels. Its architecture is beautiful and it seats 16,000 persons. Within its walls aita all the conveniences that the bullderi could think of, and Its stage Is thi largest In the country. Then there are tie hotels, ample la number and well Conducted. Theli managers looked after the comfort oi the city's guests In every possible waj and, what is more to the point, ratel were kept well within reason. Cleveland seems to have more anto mobiles than any other city In th4 world In comparison with the population, but the able and well-trained traffic police protected the life and limb of the convention visitor in a way that elicited the admiration of all. No one was permitted to get himself run over whether or not he wished to do so. Local committees, social organize tlons and Individuals arranged pro grams of entertainment to fill up tht> hours when the convention was not lit session, and many of the men and women visitors were accommodated by the various golf clq]t>8. There were theater parties, boat rides, band concerts, fireworks and other things galore. Special teas and receptions wer* given for the women, and a program for colored visitors was provided.

Coolidge Did Not Let : Convention Bother Him one who has a uientul picture President Coolidge with his ear glued to a telephone transmitter, shouting orders and receiving "Yes, Sirs," from the Republican leaders who ran the convention at Cleveland, has been misinformed. It is not recorded that any occupant of the White House ever worked himself into a highly nervous state on the mc*t his nomination fos jjie presidency, but no one ever took It easier than did £alvln Coolldge. President Coolldge was interested, of course, in what was taking place in Ohio, but he refuses to get excited about It. It Is hie business, as he sees It, to perform the duties of president of tlie United States, and he performs them, regardless of other considerations. His friends, Frank Stearns, William M. Butler and his secretary, Bascom Slemp, were in communication with the White House of emttMk Airing ) the entire time of the convention. But they talked to Ted Clark, the President's* private secretary, for the most part. The day betng a day fpr a cabinet meeting, a cabinet meeting was held at the White House. Only two members were In town, but with Secretary Hughes and Secretary Hoover, the President went over the questions that came up. Pressing matters piled high on his desk and he plunged into them with such vigor that he didn't havs ttas to listen to all of the keynote speech of Congressman Burton over the radio. Uncle Joe Cannon Waa Mined at Convention Another old-timer missed at the convention was Joseph G. Cannon, former speaker of the house of representatives. Uncle Joe, as he Is affectionately known to thousands of Republicans, remained in the seclusion of Dauvllle. III., to the regret of convention throngs that netwr tailed to enjoy his wtt. Since retiring from the congress, the former speaker and veteran of all campaigns since Lincoln, has spent a quiet life In his little Illinois town. He is in his eighty-ninth year. Charles B. Warren, ambassador to Mexico, who was chairman of tlie resolutions committee, was the only member of the former "old guard" who was selected for a position of honor and trust Iq the proceedings. Lodge, Watson, Pepper, Curtis, all the members sgve Warren of the pld "ijxslde" group ---were privates In the ranks for the first time In many years. Warren la skillful, which was regarded as sn admirable quality for a platform builder. Firefly Catcher Many are the ways in which colleg* students earn nypey. A Ion son R.
