Washington. June IL, Special -
when the Inflated campaign Of Judge

crat should be nominated did not
come very speedily to the front with
campaign contributions The gorgeous
headquarters located with character.
istic tact Immediately across the
street from the WaldorfAstoria were
short OF money for postage stamps
and for speakers railroad fares. At
this critical moment Mr. August Bek
mont and Mr. Thomas +. Ryan came
TO the rescue. each one contribute
ing fifty thousand dollars with the
understanding that as contributions
came In from the rank and file OF the
democracy this advance campaign
fund should De repaid TO them. Wheth'
or Il was repaid or not DO not
know. but have some personal
knowledge OF the original agreement.
Into the campaign fund OF the ma.
tloual committee goes money derived
from many sources. and Il Is cNpend.
ed FOR the beuefit OF many candidates.
\ New York newspaper which sold
a half page to the republican ma.
tional committee for the purpose "
lampooning Judge Parker three days
before election and which processes
10 be democratic, is in a state OF
mind bordering on Mysteries because
fifteen thousand dollars Of the dem
ocratic national campaign fund was

Of carrying that state citner 'pr LHsc
Parker or for the state ticket. The
New York World asserts that this
/ fifteen thousand dollars came directly
from Thomas f. Ryan. William F.
/ Sheehau, who was in charge OF the
/ finances OF the 1904 campaign, as
serts that the money was simply
checked out of the general fund. Part
Of it may have come from Mr.. Ryan,
much Of it came from loyal democrats
in that campaign who had sent five
or twenty-five or hundred dollars
to the national committee. The one
thing that is not charged however
is that any part of it represented
the contributions Of Mr.. Joseph Pu
liter OF the New York World to q
democratic campaign fund. Mr.. Pulit
ger and his paper contribute nothing
but denunciation and defeat.

and says, that the constitution was

elected in spite of the efforts of your

speech made In Oklahoma by Mr.

Mr.. Bryan charges among other

troll Of more than 90 per cent of the

He asks the president II he will in.
sist that in permitting this you show.

Mr.. Bryan abruptly charges that
Gov. Hughes, quoted by President
