| THE JEFFERSONIAN, TOWSON, MARYLAND Saturday, May 17, 1924—Page CHOICE FOR DEMOCRATIC PRESIDENTIAL NOMINEE LEADING TO DARK HORSE' "Free-For-All" Battle Expected At National Convention-McAdoo And Smith Now Ahead, But Not Likely To Win. The situation regarding choice of a Democratic candidate for the Presidency stands today exactly as it did a week ago, and a week before that.

Licensed and supervised by State Bank Commissioner. McAdoo's march toward possible victory was stayed when damaging testimony regarding him was brought out by the Senate oil investigating committee, and, more latterly, since the death of Boss Murphy, Tammany leader, gave Governor Al Smith a sudden accesion of strength. Leaders of the Jeffersonian party are just as keen on analysis of pre-convention situations as their Republican counterparts, ordinarily speaking. But they are confronted this year by a puzzle as unsolvable at present as the worst ever devised by Chinese tricksters. They all admit that the two leading battlers in the preliminaries at the New York gathering June 24 will be the above mentioned gentlemen. But the main bout will come after it has been shown that neither Mc-Adoo nor Smith has a chance to corral the necessary two-thirds of the 1098 delegates. It will not be a bout, really, but a free-for-all, and, to mix metaphors a bit, a dark horse is pretty sure to come out triumphant. The relative power of McAdoo and Smith is extremely difficult to gauge because of the Democratic system, largely in vogue, of picking unin-structed delegations either through primaries or State conventions. David Ladd Rockwell, McAdoo's spokesman, says his man has 425 "favorable" delegates. Smith's managers and backers have not recently put forth claims for him, but they rely upon a dictum from "Boss" George Brennan of Illinois to fortify their chief. Claims of both sides are regarded as somewhat chimerical. The best use either McAdoo or Smith can make of his forces is in the trading which will busily go forward after a few ballots have shown the hopelessness of either of these candidates winning. "Then will come the chance for the dark horse. There is a stableful of this type, though some of them have taken on lighter shades, as it were, through exposure to the light of publicity. And the lighter they have grown, the more apparent it has become that they cannot be considered very good for betting purposes. Among this class are Senator Underwood, John W. Davis, Senator Glass, Homer S. Gummings, Representative Hull, chairman of the Democratic National Committee, and Governor Edwards of New Jersey. vocu'; 1 ill II I.-Kill Aft PATE NT E F4 B?J I * I PATENT FROST PROOI CLOSETS SAVE WATER Strong - - Durable Over 350,000 in use and giving- satisfaction CAN BE EASILY AND QUICKLY INSTALLED Valve rod and packing may be with drawn by simply removing brass valve cap back of bowl.

Who sings and dances, is performing! this week at El Tango, new cabaret, I eleven miles out the Reisterstown road. All these and others are practically assured of a complimentary vote in the early ballots from the delegations representing their commonwealths. This will be merely an evidence that they have something to sell in the way of votes and are in the market for the best bid. The big question then will arise whether the personal managers of several candidates will unite on one man or whether the big Brennan-Taggart-Tammany machine will be in a position to dictate. That is the crux of the situation, and at present the odds are on the machine triumph. The 1912 convention at Baltimore, however, still is fresh in the minds of those who hope for a different eventuation. They recall how William Jennings Bryan swung the win-nig votes to Wilson, while Tammany stood by and stormed. They trust for such a situation this year, though with a different type of candidate for the final choice. AMERICAN LEGION TO LAUNCH DRIVE FOR NEW MEMBERS. May 31st will be known as "D" Day with the American Legion, and a drive will be made to secure new members.
