SAN FRANCISCO BIDS FOR BIG CONVENTION California City Making Fight for Democratic Mocking in Juno. HAS FAIRLY GOOD CHANCE Parly Leaders Bcllovo' ItWonld Be Good rolitlcs to Favor Westerners. Snti KrancUco Is putting up tho strong- est fight for tho Domocratlo National Convention of any city. It Is not at all Improbable, according to a prominent member of tho national commlttco who was In New York for a few hours yes terday on his way to atteni the meotlng of tho committee in Washington, that the Cioldcn Gate City will capture the prize.

It la thp Impression of the national committeeman, based on talks with other members, that tho convention will not ba held Immediately after tho Re- publican convention, buf will come the second week later, the week of Juno 20. \While nt first thought the Idea of coins to tho Paclfli coast for our con- vention seems out or the question,\ said the committeeman, \It should not be so considered. The nrgument thnt the of San Francisco are put- ting up Is that It Is no further for the delegates from tho East to go to San Francisco than It would be tot tho far Western Democrats to come East Would He Good Politics. \There Is no question that It would be good politics. Tho Pacific coast States elected President Wilson In 1916, and wo have got to have them In 1920 If we are going to win. It would bo considerably more of a compliment for the Easterners to go to Kan Francisco than It would be for the Democrats to choose St. Louis or Chicago, where conventions have been held for years.\ In 1912 the Democrats held their con- trition In tho East That year, while toino of tho other cities were promising large convention funds, Baltimore quiet- ly raised $100,000, Its representatives put It In tho form of a certified check nnd placed It In tho hands of tho con- vention committee. While other cities weio saying that Baltimore could nover get the convention because it was too far cast, it ran away wlh the prize. This year, If reports are to be credit- ed, San Francisco Is talcing a leaf from the Baltimore book. Tho Democrats went as far west as Denver In 1908, and the Eastern dele- gates expressed themselves as much pleased with the arrangements. \There aro a great many people who nave Been planning to go to the Pacific coast for a trip,\ said the national com- - AWAY WITH THOSE ACHES AND PAINS Keep Sloan's Liniment handy to put tne \icel good\ back Into tho system A LL it needs is just one trial a SX little applied without rubbing, for it penetrates to convince you oi us merit in relieving sciaiica, lum-baeo- . neuraleia. lamo muscles, stiff ness, bruises, pains, aches, and strains, the after-effec- ts of exposure.
