Detroit, June 25.-Gov. Pingree gave
out a public statement yesterday to
the effect that he had combined with
Secretary Alger in the interests of
Ayers senatorial candidacy. Gen.
Alger will not withdraw under any
circumstances, nor win he spend any
money in the campaign. The alliance
was made ut conference at which sew
eral OF the Pingree state leaders and
the general and the governor were
present. The platform of their cam
paign viii include the features of OPP
position to trusts and a declaration in
favor of senatorial elections by direct
vote of the people. Said the governors:
Il have avoided committing myself
heretofore, because / wanted an OPP
portunity to talk with the general
first. But all along Gen. Alger has
been my personal choice for senator.
] wired him at Petoskey, asking him il
/ could see him in Detroit on his way
back 20 Washington. In reply, he ar
ranged TO meet me last evening. or
courst | cant speak for my friends.
but those / have talked with are AL
ger men beyond question. They can
not support Senator Mcmillan. They
certainly cannot be classed as friends
of mine IL they do. They cannot for
get eight years of political history in n
day, nor can they live with the repre-
sentatives of 'judicious combinations
and unequal taxation, and pretend at
the same timp Il be friends to equal
and Just taxation and foes to trusts.
At our meeting Gen. Alger told Us
frankly the history of his relations
with Senator Mcmillan in the matter
of the senatorship. He has dealt with
Gen. Alger the same as he has treated
| every one who questions his owner
snip of the Republican party. Gen.
Alger is in the race and to stay to the
end. and you can say in the strongest
English you can write, l am with him
heartily. and l propose to do all | can
personally and with my friends to aid
his candidacy"
