JUICE PARKER SAYS HTS SAY
Defeated Candidate Tor President
On Campaign Contributors.
iEfimates That Not the New York
Life Alone Contributed to the
Republican Campaign Fund

Esopus, N, Y, Sept. 1S.--Former
Chief Judge Alton B. Parker, last year
the democratic candidate for president
Of the United States, referred to the
charges made BY him in the presiden-
tial campaign last fall that corporation
funds were being used in aid of the re-
publican campaign To a correspondent
who called at Rosemont, Judge Parker's
home, and asked him if he had my
thing to say in relation to the state
ment made by Vice-President George
W. Perkins, Of the New York Life In
surance Co. before the legislative COM
mittee investigating the insurance bust
ness, to the effect that President John
Al. Mccall Of that company had caused
a contribution Of about $4,000 to be
made last year to the republican ma
tional campaign fund, Judge Parker
said:
Were there an investigation of rail-
road, manufacturing and other corpora
lions it would be found that these life
insurance officers were not the only
corporation officers who put their
hands into the treasury and took out
moneys belonging to widows and or
phans to help secure a partisan tri-
hmph.
THE truth about 1t is-and say 1t
without feeling. but emphatically--that
men like Mccall have no political con-
| yictions that stand in the way of their
| personal advantage, Such men desire
he triumph Of that party which will
better serve. their personal financial
Interests, and wiil-for contributions,
past, present and future-eontilue to
protect those interests by lenlent leg
islation and by pretense at execution
Of law which shall be tenderly blind to
all their o~ffenses. That party they
espouse in the board DON and con-
tribute 70 Of the moneys held in trust
and occasionally a little of their own.
The underlying principles which divide
the great masses CT the people into par
ties have no effect upon such men
Their one inquiry is, will the party or
ganization, in Its hour of triumph, re-
member our generosity and respond
to our demands? OF course, the organi-
cation does remember, FOR II expects .
similar contribution next time. Ant
the expectation is not in vain. Las
year was no the first time such con.
tributions had been made before in ma.
