said:
Yes. he did and was rather surprised at
the request. for l assure you l thought that
William X. Morrison knew that he was politi-

Morrison would not reflect that the man he
now abuses IL the sef-same man he asked to

nation few months ago. There are several
suggestive epithets in common use which are

Senator Timothy DRY Dollar" Sullivan has
resented the interference OF Leader Sheehan OF
Tammany Hall In the canvass OF his district
the Sixth Assembly. This interference was de-
cided on because Senator Tim has allied him
self with County Clerk Purroy In the Tammany
Central Bryan and Sewall Club, which is consid-
cred to be an antiS Sheehan movement. Because
Leader Sheehan has suggested that County
other leaders who are in this movement might
lose their districts. sullivan called his election

nomination. In any event Swanson is in
no earthly danger. Competent judges be-
lieve that he will carry the district by
majority ranging anywhere from 5000 TO
5000. The silver sentiment i'm Franklin Is
so overwhelming that conservative gem
tlemen predict a majority in this county
