After tho necond ballot had been taken It was discovered that seventy too mnny votes had been announced on tho first ballot. As the ballot was non- effective no attempt was mado to check up and find where the discrepancy was.

Calder Is understood to have voted for Crane throughout. When Oswego was called on the roll for nominations Francis l. Culllnan said that Speaker Thaddeus C.

Now. however, as It was apparent that \victory cannot lodge on his shoulders\ he would withdraw Tho thirteen votes of Oswego wero Fpllt between Miller and Hugo, although It was not announced whoso vote It was that was divided to make tho halves. The coun.tles that cast their votes complete for Miller on the first ballot were. Alleghany, Livingston, Monroe, Onondaga, Schuyler, Seneca, Steuben, Cortland, Delaware, Tioga, Tomkins, Warren and Washington. Immediately upon the announcement of tho result Fred Orclner of Brie, sup- porter of John Lord O'Urlan, moved to make the recommendation unanimous. He was followed by Cornelius V. Col- lins, for Howard ; John Corwln of Or. Hnge. for Tompkins, and former Senator Brown, for Hugo. Hugo was not In tho hall at the time, but Senator Brown .nlcl later that at first B. H. Machold and A. B. Parker, Hugo's friends, had suggested keeptng still, but later told him to go ahead and move to make unanimous. This waa the declaration that Hugo later In the evening' repudiated.

When it came time to consider the recommendation for United States Sena- tor, Job Hedges took the platform on be- half of Senator Wadsworth amid great applause. It gave him great pleasure, he said, to be a member of an organization which had the nerve to stand up ano be counted In the naming of a ticket. \We want to keep In the Senate,\ he said, \a man with a normal heart action, It Is good to have a mind and a splno that synchronize, Fortunately, you can tell by hl.i spoken word what he is re illy thinking about.\ Mrs. Florence C.

Mrs Catherine Barton, of the Women's County Committee of Broome, said she thought there ought to be some one In the field against Wadsworth, and she entored Elon H. Hooker. He was seconded by Mrs. Abra- ham McFarlane of Chemung. Most of the southern tier county dele- gates voted for Hooker, but there was great applause when Steuben gave Its sixteen votes to Wadsworth. The nlnety-aave- n votes that Hooker got came from Broome, Clinton. Columbia, Cortland, Dutchess, Franklin. Hamilton, Jefferson, Niagara, Oswego, Otsego, Queens, 8cho. harle, Tioga and Tompkins. Most of them gave only ono or two vdtes apiece. Kings gave 1 3C for Wadsworth and none for Hooker. Of the 123 votes In Now York. Hooker got only six. Most of the votes came from men. After the naming of a committee on vacancies the convention adjourned at 6:30 o'clock, after having been 'In con- tinuous session from 11 o'clock In the morning. ! Great Din for Hugo. The Hugo supporters gradually worked up quite a demonstration while has name was being placed before the convention. Boon the standards of Queens, Montgom. ery. Schenectajlyj Madljon, Oswego nnd Jefferson were all out In the aisles, while the Hugo delegation cheered and milled about. The opening of the convention wns delayed for nn hour waiting for the resolutions committee, of which Senator Ba was chairman, to complete Its j work. The audience was larger than f yesterday. \ After thovconventlon was over Hugo considered what he would do and finally gave out a statement In which he said no one was authorized to say ths action of the convention had altered his deter- mination to go Into the primaries. His determination to bo a candldato for Gov- ernor was made fifteen months ago, long before talk of holding a designat- ion, convention was heard. \The action to-d- when the conven- tion presumed to designate Judge Miller,\ he said, \was nothing more than a straw vote. Other straw votes which havo been taken have shown that a majority of the Republican voters want me, \Furthermore the demonstration In the convention over my candidacy shows who has the voters behind him. My pe- titions aro being prepared for filing nnd there will be 100,000 signatures. I am determined to go ahead.\ , William Halpln, manager of the cam- paign of George Henry Payno for the Republican Senate nomination In the primaries, said that MaJ.-Qe- n. Leonard Wood was determined \to support In every way In hist power\ that candidacy. HAYWARD PILLORIES SMITH AS GOVERNOR Chairman Calls for Defeat of Tammany. Upedal to The Bon mo New Totrc Hiuu.

Ohio, new chairman of the Democratic Na- - t'onnl Committee, met Homer S. Cum- - I nungs, former chairman, In New York yesterdaj and conferred with him upon the Intricacies of opening and operating national campaign headquarters. Tho old and new chairmen strolled from the Murray Hill Hotel, where they regis- tered, to Grand Central Palace, and In- -, spected the eleventh floor of that build- ing In which the Democratic headquar- ters will be established. They said the quarters are thoroughly suited to their purposes, and .Mr. White announced he will take his place on the quarterdeck enrly next week. He will retain W. It. Holllstrr as executive secretary of the committee, and W. J. Cochrane as director of publicity, imstf) which they held under Mr. Gumming. Chairman White said his conversation with Mr. Cummlngs had \nothing spe- cial\ to do with politics. He Is not ready Just yet to let the public In on the Dem- ocratic campaign plans, he said, but he Indicated the Democrats will go the Harding camp nine words better and en- ter tho field under a three word slogan Instead of going to the extent of twelve words, as Is the intention of tho Repub- licans. The Republicans stole the Dem- ocrats' thunder, anyhow, when they cooked up the Idea of a crisp campaign slogan, said Chairman White, \Gov. Cox Is going before the people Just the minute he Is notified of his nomination,\ Mr. White said. \The Gov- ernor believes the people should havo the right to Blze up the candidates, and besides he has a few things to tell them. There will be no sitting around on the front porch with him.\ Mr, Whtto had dinner with Stuart G. Glbboney, and later motored to the homo of William Glbbs McAdoo, at Hunting- ton.

Plank on Housing1 Urges More Building Facilities Pri- mary Afisailed. Sabatcoa N. T July 28. Indorsement of the Republican national platform, pledges or enthusiastic support Harding nnd Coolldge, a declaration for a League of' Nations \with such res-- I ervattons as shall protect the sovereign ty and Independence the United Btatta and always retain In Congress alone the power to declare war,'' are contained In the platform submitted to the unofficial Republican State Convention There Is no prohibition plank. \Prohi- bition not State Issue,\ the document declares. ' High cost of living, housing, Industrial relations, reconstruction of Stato gov- ernment, finance and other State Issues aro considered at length. Discrimina- tion against the Stato of New York by the Federal Government la alleged and condemned. The complete document contains about 8,000 words. Repeal of the direct primary, laws ns affectlnc Stato and judicial olticei is urged. The League 0f Nations plank follows: \Believing that It Is the paramount Issue of tho American people favor the League of Nations plan'i ns contained the national platform, which declares for league with such resurvn-tlon- s as shall In every way protect the sovereignty Independence of the United fitates and always retain In Con- gress alone the power to declare war, as opposed to the league plank adopted hi the Democratic Convention, namely, a league with such reservations as shall not in any way impair Integrity tho Instrument brought home by Presi- dent Wilson from Versailles.\ Relief From Illifh LlTlns; Coats, Regarding the high cost of living the platform says \Legislation alone will not cure the evils from which we are suffering to- day. We emphatically condemn the of laws without adequate con- sideration their effect. We pledge ourselveso Intelligent study of rem- edies, but ,dlsapprovo the practice of complicating the critical situation by tho passage of III constructed laws which, while they may remedy one evil, aggravate others. The high cost of liv- ing Is dun to many causes, chief of which Is the depreciation the pur- chasing power nf tho dollar. There are many contributing causes, not the least of which are the wasto and Inefflclencj1 at Washington, resulting In an unneces- sarily enormous debt to be paid by taxation ; and cessation production of necessary articles, making a supply In- adequate to meet the enormous demand, not only of our own citizens, the whole world.\ Other planus arc: \Housing. The lack of proper hous. Ing facilities Is a matter of wrlaus con- cern. A Republican Legislature enacted the rent bills, which nrc giv Ins needed relief, and have to a certain extent prevented rent profiteering. These laws should be continued, and If necessary etrengthened, especially In preventing discrimination against fam- ilies with children, but the main prob- lem Is how to provide sufficient housing facilities. \Relief will be found In obtaining money for the building of houses. We believe that Income from mortgages on real estate should bo exempted from tho State Income tax and that everything possible should be done to encourage Investors to lend their money for purpose. AKrlcntturnl Cooperation. \Agriculture. When agriculture be- comes an unprofitable occupation In any nation it is the beginning of the decline of that nation. Wo believe that the State should encourage the development of cooperative organization among the farmers both for the purpose collec- tive purchase of all farm supplies and equipment with adequate protection against discrimination and for thenur-pos- e of collective marketing of farm products. \We feel that all legislation necessary to Insure tho prosperity of this pur- suit and to put the farmer on at least an equal footing with citizens en- gaged In all other lines of endeavor, should be passed. The daylight saving law, while popular In the cities. Is prac- tically unanimously disapproved by the agricultural population of tho State. It unquestionably makes the problem farm labor and farm production more acute. We pledge ourselves to an amend- ment of taw so that It shnll not ap- ply to rural districts while preserving to the more populous municipalities the continuance of the law unless they ex- ercise their option to change It. \Industrial relations social legis- lation. We urge cooperation capital and labor, to bring this about, to nllay Industrial unrest, and establish harmonious relations, wo de- pend upon the patriotism and the com- mon senso of both employers nnd \em- ployees, especially calling to their at- tention the Interest of the public In gen- eral, which Is paramount, must be protected. \The rlsrht of the people to continuous and adequate service In transportation. food, supplies, fuel and other necessities ol \le l,,ust 08 maintained unimpaired. It rannot be Invaded by combinations of capital or labor.- - The surest way to se- - cure nn1 fortify this right Is by a frank recognition or the Just claims of both capital and labor and provision for the fair adjustment of such claims.

That commission made an exhaustive report last year recommend- ing a four year term for tho Governor, a short ballot, an executive budget and a drastic consolidation of State activities. Legislation was Introduced at the last session to carry out their recommenda- tions. Their plan U an enormous In- crease of executive power at tho expense of the legislative branch. Wo epclally commend tho Legislature for Its refusal to consent to any proposition which would havo magnified the power of the exccutlv nt the expense of the direct representatives of the people. \Tho Budget. While tho expenditures of the State have enormously Increased In the last few years, practically double In every ten year period slnco 1890, nnd much exceeding the average Increase this year, we call attention to tha fact that of, tho approprmtlon of 1820 75 per cent. In devoted to education and State hospitals.\ Tho platform demands \equal Justice for nil our citizens,\ declaring that the party not only condemns lynch law but all acts which tend to create and foster raco prejudice,\ Protection for Water Poster. Under the subject \Water Power,\ the platform opposes tho State 'entering the business of developing, soiling and dis- tributing hydro-electr- energy. \The State,\ it says, \should never ugaln part with the title to any of its remaining water powers, but they should be de- veloped and operated by private capital 6n leases, and such corporations should be, regulated by the Public Service Com- mission as to compensation, rental and rates.\ Regarding the recommendation that the direct primary law be repealed and that there be a return to the former sys-ter- n of party nominating conventions, the platform says: \We bellevo that the method of se- lecting party candidates and party lead- ers should be such ns to strengthen party leadership, fix party responsibility and Insure the performance of party pledges, \The direct primary principle can he well applied In the smaller units and in the choice of delegates, But a Stats wldt. primary not only does not Insure an expression oi tne win or tno moporlty, but by Its cumbrous and expensive ma chinery often thwarts It. Thus bellcv Ing, we favor the selection of candidates voted for by the whole State and Jus- tices of the Supreme Court by conven- tions of delegates chosen by the enrolled voters of the party at direct primaries.\ NEW ORDER BARS ARMY IN POLITICS Not Aimed at Wood, Secre tary Baker Explains. Washington, July 2S. Army officers and others connitted with the military establishment arc prohibited under on order Issued to-d- by Secretary Baker from taking any \active part In politi- cal management or In political cam- paigns\ or from \using their official position to Inlluence the result of an election.\ Secretary linker said the order was not directed at Major-Ge- Leonard Wood, who sought the nomination as the Republican candidate for the Presi- dency and who since has promised bin active support to Senntor Harding. Mr. linker explained that Gen. Wood's ac- tivities In politics had been with his full knowledge nnd consent and that the General's position had been exceptional, Inasmuch as he was a candldato at the Chicago convention. He added that It was not the policy of the Department to stand In the way of the people's choice of any officer whom they might want for President The War Secretary would not be more specific when asked If the order would affect Gen. Wood's activities in politics In the future, saying thnt the order spoke for Itself. BUN0FF PRIMARY FOR BAILEY From Texas, Ont for fiiisernor, Will Aid Cox Then. Dallas, July 28.

Pomerene helped Cox, of course, nt Bin Francisco, and will aid In the cam paign, but they are not close friends by no means sufficiently close for Gov.

These editorials, which appeared al most dally over a period of many months, fix Gov. Cox's position as Njuarely back of President Wilson on the League of Nations.

Almost Is It tragic.\ To show how closo the editorials come on top of one another and how vigorous they were In support of the troaty this editorial Is reproduced from the Dayton AVirs of the following day, January 16: \President Wilson la right. Article X. Is tho very heart of the treaty, nnd if It Is emasculated or amended so as to rob It of Its sustaining and protecting In- fluence the league Itself Is nothing more than a collection of phrases, purposeless and Impotent.\ In .the thick of the fight on February 15 it was said : \To Senator Lodge and others asso ciated with him In their efforts to emas culate the treaty of peace and the League of Nations thero comes no thought of obligation to the world. . . . Lodge and his followers want Article X. amended because, they seek to shirk responsibility which civiliza- tion had demanded of all nations.\ Rumors nro afloat that In due time President Wilson In a public statement will openly surrender his waning control of the Democratic party and salute Gov.

Anthony amendment. It was signed by Mrs, James S. Plnckard of Montgom- ery, Ala,, president-genera- l of the league. Tho message declared that tho \home loving women of' the South, who do not iPtcket, card Index or blackmail candi- dates, appeal' to you as the leader of the Democratic party to grant us a hearing, not on woman suffrage, which any Btate can adopt for Itself without changing a comma of the Federal Constitution, but on two fundamental Democratic princi- ples, Stato rights and party honor.\ The appeal wan made, the message continued, because' It was proposed to \bring about the political conscription of our womanhood and the destruction of Southern civilization by using Fed. eral patronage and party pressure to coerce tho legislators of Tennessee Into violating their solemn oaths of office and their State constitution.\ Suffragists were boasting, the appeal said, that Gov. Cox had sent \secret agents\. Into Tennessee, \not only to de- stroy State rights, but to urge legislators to dishonor their oaths of office.\ Gov. Cox was entreated to extend to Southern women \seeking neither votes nor offices\ fair consideration before casting his lot with n small group of pickets whose chosen symbol Is a badge representing their Jail termB for perse- cuting a Democratic President.\ Datton', Ohio, July 28.
