HERNLEY TRYING
TO SHOW SORE TOE
A. w. Tracy Sheds Light on
the Statements he Made
About Mr.. Watson.
WERE FORMERLY FRIENDS
HERNLEY TRIED TO LAND A JOB
AND WATSON HELPED, BUT
THEY FAlLED-NOW NEW GAS
TIE MAN is SORE.
(By A. w. Tracy.)

Washington, July 20,.-Indiana Re-
publicans in Washington were very
much surprised at the interview of for
mer Republican State Chairman, Chas.
S. Hernley of New Castle, published in
Indianapolis, few days ago and all to
a man repudiate and dispute his state
ments. Many of the Hoosiers in
Washington recall Mr.. Hernley's for
mer enthusiasm and friendship for
Congressman Watson whom he now
seeks to defeat, and are asking why
this face about"
A Sixth District Republican in this
city is authority for the statement that
Representative Watson was never as
popular with the people at home as
he is now. He says further that there
is practically no anti-Watson senti-
ment in Mr.. Hernley's home county
and he thinks that the sixth district
member will be returned by larger fig
ures than ever.
Another Indiana Republican, talking
of the interview, says that no one ever
worked harder for another man than
did Mr.. Watson for Mr.. Hernley when
the latter was seeking a federal ap-
pointment. Watson nearly turned
everything upside down trying to land
for his friend Hernley and because
other things mitigated against him.
Mr.. Hernley has turned his back on
his friends"
In answer to Hernley's attack on
Representative Charley Lands be-
cause he made a stand pat tariff
speech in the House this last session
it is pointed out that the Republican
congre ssional committee think well
enough of the speech to put it into the
campaign text book this year Both
Watson and Lands were in line with
the policy of a Republican president
and a Republican administration and
their positions were heartily endorsed
by the party leaders.
The Indiana Republicans in Wash
ington do not take well to Mr.. Hern
ley's statements and say that he is
only trying to show his sore toe which
has been in political oblivion for few
years past.
