The National ConventionThere will he 1002 delegates in the

Democratic National Convention or1008 if the representatives from thePhlippines are seated says the NewYork World In the Republican cdnvention there will be 992 delegates

This difference in number isdue toTerritorial representation The Demo

cratic convention allows six delegateseach to Alaska Arizona District ofColumbia Hawaii New Mexico and

Porto Rico In the Republican conven

tion only Alaska New Mexico andArizona are allowed six delegatesThe others including the Philippineshave two each In other respetcs the

i basis of representation is the sameevery State having two delegates foreach electoral vote

convention the Congressional districtHence a Democratic State conventioncan instruct all the delegates fromthat State to vote for a particular

A Republican Statecan instruct only the four dele

gatesatlarge and each Congressionaldistrict can instruct its own two delegates as it pleases Democraatic

recognize the unitrule by which when so authorized by

a State convention a majority of thedelegates from that State can voteentire delegation as a unit Thus fortydelegates from New York con castNew Yorks seventyeight votes Republican national conventions do notrecognize the unit rule The vote ofevery delegate is counted

In a Democratic national conventionthe votes of twothirds of the delegatesare necessary to nominate a candidate-

In a Republican convention a majority

nominatesTherule was adopted by

the first Democratic national convention held in 1832 in order to give asemblance of unanimity in the nomination Van of Buren for Vice PresidentPolks supporters rpvivedit in 1844 inorder to defeat Van Burens renomination for President The rule has beenadhered to in every Democratic convention since that time Its purposeis often defeated however by the unitrule which makes it actually possiblefor a little more than onethird of thpdelegates to nominate the candidatesthrough the simple process of allowinga majority of one in each State delegation to vote the minority

Thus a Republican nationalmay be more representative and

more democratic than a Democratic

conventionTheconvention is the most

distinctly original American contribution to the art of government It is aproduct of evolution and with as noiegal status

The men who framed the Constitution made no provision for nominatingcandidates and in fact had neverheard ofncminations It was their int ntion that the electors should chosethe President uninfluenced by popularpassion of prejudice There were noparties or party organizations andeverything was left to the wisdom ofthe electors who were to be chosen bythe State in whatever manner theStates pleased

Before Washingtons administrationhad ended two parties had formed andnominating machinery was boon provided in a Congressional caucus by whichthe Conrgessmen of each party selected the candidate and the electors ratified this selection Thus the legislative department virtually chose the executive in spite of all constitutionalprecautions to keep the departments

independentThecaucus lasted un

til 1824 when the Jackson men boltedthe nomination of Crawford Theoverthrow of King Caucus waspopulatly regarded as the greatestpolitical reform since the establishmentof the RepubiIc

The early national conventions werehardly more than conferences the firsthaving been held in 1831 by supportersof Clay There are thousands of menstill living who were on their way tomanhood before the national convention became an established political institution with no laws except its ownlaws with no power except voluntaryconsent yet a effective in enforcingits decrees as the Government of theUnited State or of any

ShameUpon the Republican Party-In the House of Representatives

John Sharp Williams the Democraticleader issued a challenge to Mr Paynethe Republican leader Shaking hisforefinger at Mr Payne Mr Williamssaid Here I stand to challenge youthat every dollar that goes into a campaign fund shall be published to theworld the day after it is received sothat the world may know the motiveof the giver and may judge the meansof coripution in the hands of ihc recipient Referring to this incidentHenry Watterson writing in the Louisville CourierJournal says

The silence that followed could beheard three thousand miles It wouldbe heard from Buzzards Bay to Crator

the Dome of the Capitolon the Potomac to the Lick Oberservaiory in Santa Clara Valley as Mr

Payne tired of leading the majoritysank helplessly into the abyss of confession daring not to accept challenge That single passage tells thewhole story Never mind the pastsaid Mr Williams The Presidentialrape of 1876 the crisp new two dollarbills and blocks of five of 1880 Belshazzars feast in 1884 the wholesale bribery and spoliation of 1896 and1900 and 1904 when widows and orphans were plundered to make a McKinley and Roosevelt holiday I Nevermind the denials and the proof of guilt I

Never mind the stealing the lying andthe hpyocrisy that have been Letbygones be bygones What do yousay to the future What will you doAnd poor Payne could utternever aword Nor in all that house full ofRepublicans was there one voice braveenough one heart honest enough toshout back in call Mr Willams hand We will pass the publicitybill here and now Shame upon theRepublican party shame upon itsleaders shame shame shame
