w. uieroiK to the democratic
national convention from the sixteenth
district ana wno una " .
ance In the session of the convention
during the past two weeks returned
to Waco early tomgni.
Mr. Bryan stated that he would
not be surprised if the convention
was in session ten days or two weeks
longer. Sentiment among the dele-
gates was such be said that the con-
vention was likely to continue the
hopeless deadlock of the past week
and which he believed would result in
a split in the democratic purty or the
forming of a new party.
The fight in the convention Mr.
Bryan stated was wet vs. dry and
not so much klan and anti-klan as
was the general belief. He declared
that the followers of Governor Al
Smith realized now that they made a
mistake in demanding and fighting for
an anti-klun plank and had they not
done so the New YorkVjvernor would
have been able to command a voting
strength in the convention almost
equal to that of McAdoo.
It is generally conceded among the
delegates Mr. Bryan stated that
Smith could never be nominated. He
believes there is a slight chance for
McAdoo. Judging from promises
made hy three or more States that
they would switch to the Californian
in Monday's balloting.
"If a split comes or a new party is
formed it will be on the wet or dry
issue" said Mr. Bryan "and in my
opinion one of these two alternatives
is a probability."
vote of the convention and the propo-
sition wsa msde that the resolution
committee be instructed to bring in
an amendment to the rules providing
for abolition of the two-thirds stric-
tures the theory being that such an
amendment would require a majority
only. Parliamentarians were a unit
in holding that the contention baa
power to abrogate both rules if the
necessary two-thirds vote is to be
had. There had been some expression
of opinion previously that the con-
vention could not overturn the unit
rale where the rule has been imposed
on delegations by State conventions.
It was held todsy however that the
national convention had absolute
power to fix its own rules.

The Pinned Collar
Some microscopic minds delight to grapple with such inconsequential
subjects as how many liver-pads are worn in Patagonia and what does
Sunday do with Itself on Monday. It is the same
fenap it Into place. Lo! and behold your collar
can not shift or lift; ride or slide. It knows its place and keeps It.
The vogue of this style Is now general though the collar fastened with
a button upon each side is quite as proper. Indeed the soft free collar
that is not buttoned at all is also correct if you have the knack of
making it lie down.
Illustrated here is the smart effect of the pinned collar showing its
right adjustment and the sort of scarf tuft should go with It. The collar
has deep peaked points slightly diverging. It Is made of the same
material as the shirt or the semi-soft white webbing: cloth. The accom-
panying four-ln-hand may be of spotted foulard or crepe or poplin silk.
In choosing your Summer collar be sure that the size fits your neck
and the shape befits your face. Long points are not flattering to some
features and for these the shorter round-cornered collars are prefer-
able. In the last reckoning style is simply becomingness to the
individual. Moreover whatever is uncomfortable is unfashionable.
To be In style you need not suffer polite martyrdom.

Delegates Reiterate De-

On
NEW YORK July 6 Renewed
pledges to "stand unflinchingly" for
the nomination of Williapi G. McAdoo
by the democratic national convention
were given tonight by a group of
delegates supporting Mr. McAdoo
after he in addressing them had de-
clared he did not even contemplate
withdrawing from the race.
Mr. McAdoo appearing at a rally of
his delegates at an uptown hotel de
clared amid cheers that he would
feel "like the most contemptible
traitor alive if I deserted you at this
time." He asserted that he consid
ered himsgjf in the convention to
"carry out the mandateof the peo-
ple" and added:
"1 must stay ana iignt to toe nn-
isb so as not to betray a trupt."
Conclusion oy Mr. McAdoo of bis
address in which he declared his po
sition with regard to withdrawal
again and again was marked hy adop-
tion by the delegates by a rising vote
of the resolution pledging anew their
support. In concluding paragraph
"We representing the mandate of
the people whose representatives we
are have but -One duty to perform
to obey the instructions of our consti
tuents and stand unflincniy for tne
nomination of William G. McAdoo."
The resolution in Its preamble de-
clared that the democratic delegates
assembled believed that MAdoo "is
the outstanding and inspiring leader
of progressive democracy the man
who would carry on the great hu-
manitarian principles of Woodrow
Wilson one whose sympathies have
always manifested themselves in
measures for the assistance and ad-
vancement of those who must labor
to live."
The resolution also asserted that
no man before the American people
"has so splendid a background of
achievements" and added that no
man combined In so great a degree as
McAdoo the "courage sincerity hon-
esty vision and experience" that are
needed in the lolving of the prob-
lems facing the nation and "upon the
solution of which depends the pre-
servation of basic industries and re-
lief for millions of our most indus-
trious people."
McAdoo reached the ball after the
meeting had been in progress for
more than an hour. Claude E. Sapp
of South Carolina was in the midst
of an address in which he assailed
George E. Brennan and "other bosses
of the democratic party." As Mr. Mc-
Adoo stepped into the meeting a fore-
runner advanced raised bi right
hand and announced to Governor
Fields of Kentucky who was presid-
ing: "GoTernor here Is -the chief." Im-
mediately the aadience of several
hundred men and women waa on its
feet applauding and cheering as Mc-
Adoo made his wv down the aisle to
the speaker's flatiora.

DEFINITION:

red ash coal. (Best by test) .
TRADE MARK A symbol legally reg-
istered by merchant to distinguish;
his goods.
BOLSHEVIK! Destroyers of funda-
mental principles of government. ' ;.;
TO DEVIATE FROM THE '
basic principles is equal to repudiating-
the fundamentals of things in life. V ;
A TRADE MARK does mean some-?

"just as good." 1
You do not order just
a lot of sawdust and peanuts mixed together;
surely you specify a certain brand. Same
applies to your coal. How are you to know what
you are getting if you do not specify the NAME
that stands behind it guaranteeing the quality
unreservedly. ;
ORDER YOUR COAL BY NAME buy the'
best it is the cheapest in the long run.
