ECHO OF RAID At FRENCH LICK SPRINGS,
DECLARES HIS HOTEL COMPANY
IS BACK OF THE FIGHT TO
PREVENT GAMBLING.

French Lick Springs, Ind, July g.
Thomas Taggart, chairman of the
Democratic national committee, has
given the Associated Press the follow
Ing statement made in reply to the
demand by the New York World that
he resign the national craftsmanship
OF the Democratic committee:
"The New York World has allowed
itself to be imposed upon by the false
and scandalous publications of rival
newspaper, whose editor is my per-
sonal enemy for reasons best known
to himself.
There has been no raid, nor at
tempted raid, upon the French Lick
Springs hotel, nor has such q thing
been thought of, save by Mr.. Hearst
and his correspondents.
"A building owned by the French
Lick Springs company, wholly dis.
connected from the hotel property,
was leased to party to be used for
billiards and bowling alley, with a
strong clause against gambling In the
lease. After time this tenant per-
mitted gambling. We brought suit
for possession on the ground of the
breach of that provision in the lease
and recovered judgment. He ap.
pealed the case and it is pending for
trial in the present term of court. The
state authorities have supplemented
our efforts to recover possession by
raiding that building and that is all
there is to the grossly sensational
publications in which the World has
placed credence
"The proposition that I should re-
sign is preposterous. 1t deserves and
will receive no attention."

Washington, July 8.-Attorney Gen
oral Lebbeus r. Wilfey Of the Philip
pine islands has been appointed to the
judgeship Of the United States court
In China, which is to replace in large
measure the present consular court.
Judge Wiley Is native of St.
Louis, Mo-, and in 1901 was appointed
judge of the court of first instance of
the Philippines. A few months later
he was advanced to the attorney gen.
eralship of the islands.
The post is one of great Importance
and is well salaried, the yearly COM
pensation being fixed at $4,000, with
a liberal allowance for travelling ex.
penses. The court was created by
congress at the instance of Secretary
Root for the purpose Of correcting
many of the abuses which have grown

the Orient through the consular
courts. In those courts the American
consul presided, though often not a
lawyer and without legal knowledge. 2.
Headquarters for the new court will
be in Shanghai, but there will be a
circuit including the principal Chinese
cities.

Democratic papers are poking
fun at the state development
issue, saying that there is no
need for dragging it into politics;
that the state will boom whether
Cole is elected or not. OF course
Minnesota will continue to ad.
vance even if Johnson is returned
to office, but if there is any virtue
in going out after a thing you
want and hustling hard, the state
ought to go ahead faster under a
governor elected by a state de-
velopment slogan.

One of the best pieces of legis-
lation passed by the congress
recently adjourned is the law re-
quiring that every foreigner be
able to speak the English Ian.
guage before he be admitted to
citizenship. Citizenship gives
the right to vote, and surely no
man can vote intelligently in the
United States who cannot read,
or at least speak, the language of
the country. The great wonder
is that this law was not passed
years ago.
