The man who is now the dis- tinguished father-in-law of Mr.| McAdoo was nominated in Balti- {more in 1912 because the two- thirds rule, and only that rule, prevented the realization of the aspirants of Champ Clark of Mis- majority of the convention. It is not an extravagance to say that if it had not been for the two-thirds rule at that time, Mr. McAdoo prcb- ably never would have come into conspicuous place in the councils of a Democratic national adminis- tration. It seems a bit ungrateful, therefore, for the admirers of Mr. McAdoo to have any purposé of at- tacking the rule at this time. Pos- sibly the opposition is merely set- ting up a “ Ww man” to embar- rass the McAdoo candidacy.
