That Surprise Again.

The interview in last weeks PRESS
taken from the Inquirer, in which
it was stated that Mr. Mutchler said
last June to Mr.. Loudensager that
he "would be n member of the next
Congress" has been denied by the
express" but in such manner as
not to contradict the assertion that
the remark was made but to try to
cast a doubt as to whether it was
given to the Inquirer. The conver-
sation took place he practically adj
mits but he says it was not given to
the paper. This is a clumsy denial
and will not have weight with an
intelligent public. The only ques-
tion is did he say it and not he W the

The Easton Argus in commenting
on the article and Mutchlor's furth-
er statement says, quoting in part
"In June when this pretended in
terview is alleged to have taken
place, each of the other three coun-
ties had two candidates for Con-
gress. The convention in none OF
them had been held and no confer
ees elected, and then Mr.. Mutchler
argues that it was impossible for
HIM to know which set of cor ferees
from the counties would be elected
who might vote with Northampton
and thus nominate him, and that to
know this would be to endow Mr.
Mutchler with superior kind Of
political wisdom" The answer to
such a statement can be put in nut
shell 1t made absolutely no differ.

Carbon or Monroe counties were Sc
lectcd Mr.. Mutchler was not deal

business transactions were with Pike
county. There were two sets of
conferees in Pike. Mutchler was
paying both of them. 1t was a case
of "heads l win and tails you lose
with him in Pike county. He made
arrangements with the powers of
Pike for its conferees, no matter
which set won.
