Frank e Periey's Explanation.
Frank q. Perley, secretary to Gov
ernor Higgins, after the meeting gave
out statement regarding the test
vote in the state committee in which
he says in part:
"Dr. Witter, member of the state
committee from the Thirty seventh dis
trict, was unable to be present and tel
egfaphed his proxy to Congressman
Vreeland, authorizing Mr.. Vreeland to
act with the friends of Governor Hig
gins This proxy was not received by
Congressman Vreeland until after the
committee had adjourned. Mr. Vree-
land would have been present at the
meeting of the state committee had he
received Dr. Writer'S proxy promptly.
The test vote then would have been 20
to 10 against Mr.. Odell.
'.In the coming convention there will
be 1,O10 delegates. A careful and con-
servative canvass shows that more
than 756 of these delegates will favor
the denomination of Governor Higgins" ("
Governor Odell, commenting on the
statement given out by Governor Hig-
gins secretary, said:
81 notice that Governor Higgins
friends say that $50 of the delegates
are for his denomination. Only about
300 delegates have been so far chosen.
How can they tell about the other
45O?"
