'Jackson day, the 8th of January, is on Sunday, and the cele- , bration will take place on a \^eek day. Mr. Shaver planned an earlier meet ing—-immediately after the new year —but when told that many members in the far West could not get here in* time, he moved it up. A full meeting of the committee is expected, and some interesting sub jects will be brought up. Although Mr. Shaver does not expect any action on the question of the two-thirds rule for the national convention, he would not be surprised if some member tries to put the committee on record by in- troducfhg a resolution requiring a vote. Many cities have been suggested for the national convention next year. The list includes: Boston, Atlantic City, Indianapolis, Washington, Denver, Cleveland, De troit, Chicago, Atlanta, Miami, San Francisco, Kansas City, St. Louis and Charlottesville, Va. Cleveland, Detroit. and . San Ft/an- cisco are also out for the Republican convention and if one of them should be selected, then delegates would not go there. % Mr. Shaver has conferred with lead- inrig Democrats here and a majority of those seen told him they do hot fa vor the abolition of the two-thirds rule. Some of the Southehrn members of the. committee who several months ago came out for a majority rule, are now opposing that, and will vote to retain the two-thirds rule. Senator Simmons and Chairman Shaver went over the legislative sit- a i flowers blending harmoniously with the pink in the color of the cake and ua tj 0 n here, with particular reference candles.
