M0RAN'S FOES
QUIT CONTEST AND
ADMIT DEFEAT

Boston. Sept. 2S.-In a statement issued
yesterday by Congressman John A. Sui
Ivan and Josiah Quincy representing
the anti-Moran committee. the Democrat
ic nomination for governor is conceded
10 District Attorney John B. Moran, and
these leaders accept the decision OF the
cauCuses, saying that responsibility of the
campaign now belongs wholly TO the
Democrats who have advocated or ac-
qulesced In the nomination OF Mr.. Moran.
Mr.. quincy Will probably hand in his
resignation as chairman OF the state COM
mlttee within few days.
The statement follows:
Ihe returns from the caucuses are now
suniciently fun 70 show beyond "A doubt
that a considerable majority OF the dele
gates are In facor OF the nomination OF
Mr.. Moran. While we are satisfied from
returns which have come directly TO us
from our correspondents that a very re-
spectacle minority OF the delegates would
prefer some other candidate, we frankly
admit that we see no prospect that this
minority could now convert the majority
TO his Views.
The case has ben fully presented TO
the Democratic voters or the state, and
whlle our own opinions as 10 the claims
OF Mr.. Moran TO tn. Democratic nomina-
ton and as 10 the advisabiity OF fusion
with other parties remain unchanged, we
accept the verdict OF the caucuses.
The responsibility OF the coming cam
palgn now belongs wholly TO the Demo-
Gratis who have advocated or acquiesced
In the nomination OF Mr.. Moran, and we
leave the field entirely 10 them.
Although defeated In the recent Repub-
lican primaries In his aspirations for lieu
tenant governor, Eugene n. Foss OF Bos-
ton, In reviewing the contest today says
that he is satisfied with the efforts Of
those who supported him and finds that
10000 party voters indorsed his reciproc--
~ views. He says:
THE number would have been greater
had not my candidacy been complicated
with the two-term idea in connection with
the lieutenant governorship. Many Re
publicans who indorsed my views thought
II unfair TO unseat Mr.. Draper after a
year OF faithful service"
Mr.. Foss finds also that the contest was
very close throughout the state where
Foss lists were filled. He says:
I'VE carried Haverhll in reality, but
some 500 ballots were thrown out owing
Ia defective marking, we carrier "a ma
jority Of Springfield four wards In Taun-
ton. three In Fall River one in New Bed
ford, all OF Winthrop and Revere and
had "A strong vote wherever contests were
made.
These 10000 Republican votes were all
within the party and on a straight line
up they would represent the balance Of
political power in Massachusetts. 1t re-
mains TO be seen whether the state con-
vention will think II wise to ignore them"

WHAT VAN DYKE HAS 10
SAY ON TRUE AMfRlCANlSM

For what is true Americanism, and
where does it reside. Not on the tongue,
nor In the clothes. nor among the tran
scIent social forms, refined or rude, which
mottle the surface OF human life. True
Americanlsm Is this:
To believe that the lnalenable rights Of
man 10 life, liberty. and the pursuit OF
happiness are given by God
To believe that any form Of power that
tramples on these rights Is unjust
To believe that taxation without repre-
sentatlon IS tyranny. that government
must upon the consent ~ the governed,
and that the people should chose their
own rulers
To believe that freedom must be safe
guarded by law and order and that the
end OF freedom Is fair play FOR all
To believe not In a forced equality OF
conditions and estates, but In true
equalization OF burdens. privileges, and
opportunities.
To believe that the selfish interests OF
persons. classes and sections must be
subordinated 20 the welfare OF the com
monwealth
To believe that union Is as much n hui
man necessity as liberty is n divine gift
To believe. net that all people are good,
but that the way 60 make them better Is
10 truzl tho whole -leoplC-
To believe that a free state should OF
fer an asylum 20 the oppressed. and an
example OF virtue. sObriety. and fair deal
Ing to all nations.
To believe that for tho existence and
perpetulty of such a state a man should
be willing 20 give his whole service, In
property. In labor, and la life.-Harper'
Magazine.
