Atlanta, June 1.—At noon today the Georgia state Democratic convention was called to order by Chairman E. f. Brown. Hon. M. J. Yeomans was made permanent chairman of the con volition; S. C. Northen and John T. Boifeuillet secretaries. Not in a good many years has the»e been so large an attendance at a state convention.

The element that has all along op posed not only any instructions what ever, but even the indorsement of Judge Parker as the Democratic can didate for president, was practically eliminated as the result of the day r ’s discussion, for it became apparent that the vast majority of the dele gates favor Parker as the candidate. Tho leaders of this element realized there was no use in endeavoring to defeat his indorsement by the conven tion, and the indications are that they will consent to tho unit rule and a preferential resolution lor Parker. After the convention was organized state house officers were nominated in short speecht-s. A pure election plank and a child labor plank were two of the new planks suggested for Incorporation in the state platform. The real contest of the convention hinged on th elastruction of delegates to the St. Louis convention. C. J. Smith, of Omaha, and W. H Thompson, of Grand Island, the last Di mocratlc candidate for governor were practically settled upon before the convention was called to order.
