Butler, Roraback and Hilles may ask the Hoover managers. "What have while at Houston the 100 per cent southerners will seek combinations for beating Smith. It will be observed that the democrats have chosen Claude G. Bowers as their keynoter. Mr, Bowers Is the man who would, have Invented those famous phrases pointing-with-jSride and "vlewlng-with-alarm." if they had not been too mild for him; too mild and unpio-turesque and plain.

Mr. Bowers, as those who heard him at the Jackson day dinner here this year will testify, has pride and alarm all right, but he possesses so much of these emotions that his diction is backed up against a red fire background, with ruaty long-tailed coats and muskets hovering on the horizon. From which it can be deduced that the democrats are In for a rattling old-style keynote oration. This little guy, as Will Rogers calls Bowers.does not look like a keynoter; rather, pale and slight and thin, with eyeglasses and hollow chest, and an aspect that is a bulls-eye for a small town school teacher, he looks like most anything but. But "this little guy" can put words together and intelligence and originality were not left out of his make-up, any one at that Jackson day dinner will tell you.

His style is what the books call "flowery. with a new flower, or at least a new color to the flower, every second. Bowers' Houston Appearance It will be Interesting to see how he gets away with his Houston effort. As he turned his machine-gun charges, denunciations, and epigrams, on those diners at the Jackson day ban quet the decision hovered for a long while between good-natured amusement and cheering enthusiasm, with the latter on top at the end. He will probably make a hit at Houston.

For. although the statement Is a strong one, a democratic national convention is calculated to be less judicious than a Jackson day dinner. The democrats are promised a better keynoter than the republicans. For Senator Fess looks little more like an orator than Bowers, gets just as excited, and cant write as good a speech as the latter. Mr.

Fess is a little man Who used to teach, who has a rather mincing articulation, grows red In the face hen excited, and sees Just as much iniquity in the democrats as Bower does in the republicans. There will be no treason in either keynote. Isi Limki of St. Joseph, Mich, Will reign as queen of tho 1928 bloo-eom festival In southwestern Mlchl Cans fruit belt.

The newspaper admits that, congressmen have as much right to the "synthetic pleasure" of drinking as anyone else. It says the "great majority ofi members of both houses are "gentlemen, capable of controlling their appetites. And It adds that "on the whole, probably, there are as many or more teetotalers among the dry voting members as among the wet voting members, though "this is I question that has never been de cided.

The permanent chairman will be instaled and git a o.ce to another rousing party speech la the process. There will be -accord to the formula used by Noah; which means that solemn end red-faced gentlemen wall talk and talk, citing point after point which a successful candidate must hate and prefacing each point with the mysterious declaration that "the r-an whom I am about to nominate" possesses this priceless qualification; and concluding, when eery one is t.red and asleep, with the name of the candidate. It is the formula of clunax, which Is today very since the very cats In the basement know the candidate to be nominated by etery speaker.

But it is Noahs formula and therefore likely to be followed by most nominators in both contentions. Whenever a candidate Is nominated Ns supporters seek to stage a cem-c ns trat.on"and parade around and raise the rocf and generally disrupt order and reason. If the can be kept going an hour Its authors are considerable and worth-w hue. When A1 Smith, for instance, is rimed at Houston his realots will perhaps try for a record and keep the com er.Uon hall In a riot for an tme-r ua.ed length cf time; large-lunged arid carefree gentlemen judiciously anted in the gallery can furnish p-od ous aid on such occasions, and they have been uul.zed at times by the best cf our statesmen.
