WASHINGTON, April 2G Col w. w bud.
ley's attention was yesterday called by a
United Press reporter to the published copy
Of the vaupelt letter, in which the colonel
severely criticizss President Harrison. Col
Dudley promptly pronounced it a forgery
and produced a copy Of a letter written TO
Vaupelt few weeks ago and gave it out for
publication. Vaupelt, Col Dudley said, was
an old friend Of his, and he had telegraphed
him to make public the Origin al letter Of
which the published one was a distortion,
and he had also demanded Of him an explana-
tion Of how this distorted version came to be
pade public. The copy furnished by Col.
Dudley reads as follows.

In long article of more or less den.
sity, dullness and 'self.conscious right
eousness, The Morning News says
The practical question that follows
from this analysis Is this-How are the
friends Of constitutional reform 60 deter
mine whether majority of those who
thus agree on the third Tuesday Of MAY
want that date as means to secure d
convention or as a means to avoid con
ventiol
That reads like a CLEAN Of common
sense. II is not your province to decide
upon the purity Of the motives of better
men. Either the people are in favor Of
convention or they are not in favor of
convention. If they are in favor they
win vote for it on any day, but espec
tally on the day prescribed by
an unexceptionable mode, If they will
not do that then . minority Of convention
people cannot force new constitution
no matter what date is set. This
is the peoples affair and not
the affair Of few politicians who are
alone in thinking themselves the general
and particular, though self.appointed,
guardians Of the people, 1t Is an unwar-
ranted and impudent assumption Of those
having some ulterior object to assert
that the people will not vote as well in
May as in November, il they are inter
ested. If they are not interested then
all the fuss Is among the wise politicians
who know so much better what the
people want than the people know them
selves. 1t is all very well for certain
class Of Pharisaical purists to assume
that they know what the people want
and that they have all Of the patriotism
and all Of the wisdom that the people
need to use. When any measure is pro
posed these high priests retire into the
holy Of holies Of their inner conscious
ness and then declare what should be
done with the assurance Of a charla-
tan and the ignorance Of a novice.
Now the practical question is a constitu.
tional convention regularly called, or no
convention at ALL There Is one way to
which the Senate will agree and only one.
They have wrestled with numerous
schemes till they are tired and have set
tied upon one which Is safe, regular and
by which a convention may be called and
held without legal taiut. A mode by
which the people may call con
yention, IL they want one with
absolute and unquestioned certainty. If
the crowd Of political prophets know that
the people do not want convention and
undertake 70 say that they shall not vote
for il on the third Tuesday in May, they
must do so on their own responsibility
There IS safe, sure and perfectly legal
way Take it OF reject it as you are the
friend or the enemy Of the convention
Tor new constitution. Every other
way is doubtful, expensive and danger

use Of giving warning, 50 that an adyer-

as precise aud conclusive place at all
That is simply little shadow Of poetic
license-the only valuable relic that re-
mains from the editors store Of informa-
