DEMOCRATS OPEN
THEIR^ONVENTION
[Continued From First Pago]
Americanism and that "the policy of
the administration as to neutrality is
as American as the American flag"
were given a prolonged demonstration.
When Mr. Glynn predicted the re
election of President Wilson the dele
gates rose en masse and cheered, wav
ing flags and whistling shrilly. The
band helped along the demonstration.
Governor Glynn lainly tried to quiet
the delegates, but they were deter
mined to have it out, the uproar alter
nately rising and falling.
Glynn pounded his gavel, trying to
silence the throng, but soon the floor
was again a sea of flags.
The New Jersey delegation, bearing
its stanchion, began the first proces
sion down the front aisle. Stanchions
of Illinois, Maryland, Indiana and
other states soon followed.
Tame's the Word!
At 11:20 o'clock with forty minutes
before time for the convention to be
called to order there were not more
than twenty delegates on the floor,
only a few officials on the platform
and the galleries were filling slowly.
There was little excitement and bands
that marched with the delegates from
downtown was the only amusement
for the crowd.

in finishing touches upon the hall as
the delegates tiled in.
The delegates and alternates had
seats on the main floor, arranged like
' an oblong wedge, with the broad side
toward the platform. Their seats
were Jammed together, arrangements
i for both delegates and spectators be
, ing much more congested than at
| either convention in Chicago.
The only picture of President Wil
' son was hung on the speaker's stand.
1 1 It was a small reproduction of a
' j photograph on a shield with a back
ground of the flag, and bore the in
-1 scription: "America First."
A Coatless Crowd
The Coliseum filled rapidly just be
fore noon, some delay in opening the
i doors to spectators preventing an
earlier influx. The bands accom
panied the delegations to the hall, but
were not allowed to march into the
hall. Few delegations came all to
gether and there was little excite
ment or cheering during the half hour
piecedtng the opening of the con
vention.
Moving picture machines and
cameras were planted .it every vant
age point.
Because of heat many of the dele
gates soon removed their coats and it
I promised soon to become a coatless
crowd.
Texas delegates tossed miniature
souvenir bales of cotton to the
galleries.
At 11:45 the official band began
the opening song to the acompant
ment of. a male choir. The song
brought the first applause of the day.
Ovation For Bryan
Just before the convention was
I called to order the band struck up
"Columbia the Gem of the Ocean"
and the delegates rose joining in the
chorus and waving American flags.
"Dixie" brought a roar, interrupted
with the rebel yell.
Wlllam J. Bryan was given an
ovation as he took his seat in the press
section. The applause for him started
in the galleries and then spread to
(he delegates. Mr. Bryan smiled his
appreciation and got out his pencil
and prepared for his duties.
The crowd was patient, orderly and
quiet as it waited for the convention
to begin. A half hour after the time
set for the start the delegates still
were coming in and notables were
taking seats on the platform.
Chairman McCombs took his place
at his desk at 12:30 amid cheers and I
applause.
A few thumps of his gavel on a !
wcoden sounding board quickly se
cured order and he cried: "The con
vention will be in order."
One verse of America was then
sui!f by the entire crowd with tossing
flags keeping the rhythm.
This was followed by one verse of ;
the Star Spangled Banner.
The Rev. James W. Lee, Methodist
Episcopal Bishop of St. Louis prayed. |
Bryanites Compromise
After three days' caucusing the Bry- |
an and anti-Bryan factions of the Ne- I
braska delegation compromised to- |
day and elected J. J. Thomas of j
Stuart, Neb., member of the platform j
committee. Thomas, though elected |
on a Bryan ticket at the primaries,
was referred to by the anti-Bryan fac- |
tion as a sympathizer of their cause.
W. D. Oldham, the anti-Bryan can
didate for platform committee, was
named chairman of the delegation in
pursuance of the compromise agree
ment and W. H. Thompson, the Bryan
candidate for platform committee, was
named on the committee to notify the
President of his renomination. The)
controversy in the delegation involved \
the prohibition question.
Nominations Friday
Adjournment will be taken noon }
Thursday when the committees will
report. Permanent organization will J
be affected and after the permanent!
chairman, SenatoT Ollie James, of |
Kentucky, delivers his speech, the i

party's orators after which adjourn
ment will be taken until Friday morn- j
ing when the platform will be read j
and adopted. Then will follow a re
cess and the Presidential nomination
will come late Friday night.
Suffragists Hopeful
The suffragists hope to have the
convention adopt the plank proposed
!by Secretary of the Navy Daniels,
! which favors a suffrage amendment to
11ho Federal Constitution. (
The suffragists consider their cause
i iias been greatly enhanced by having
! the secretary as an ally.
Platform building was continued by
potential leaders of the party to-day
I :'o as to have much of the work in
[readings for the consideration of the
j resolutions committee. The commit
tee is expected to organize late to
day, receive drafts of planks and hand
them over to a subcommittee for con
sideration. It is probable that a pub
lic hearing will be given on Thursday
| lo suffragists, labor leaders and others
1 who have planks they desire inserted
iin the declaration of principles. Anti
sulTragists will also be given a hearing,
I it is said.
Sleeps on Planks
j Secretary of War Baker, who ar-:
j river here last nitrht from Washing- j
jton with the planks drafted personally j
by President Wilson will submit them j
to the resolutions committee when it
is appointed. Mr. Baker has taken
extra precautions to prevent the text j
of the planks in his custody from |
reaching the public before submission
to the committee. So cautious was he |
that on his way West he took the pa
pers from his traveling bag and kept i
them under the pillows of his berth j
while he slept.
Want Progressives
Expressions of approval were heard
to-day regarding the suggested plan
to win over members of the Progres
sive party by making overtures to
them in the Democratic platform.
Secretary Baker in discussing this
I phase of the political situation, said
that party leaders hoped to get Pro
gressive support by drawing a plat
form so that it will meet with their
approval.
