HE WAS NAMED LAST NIGHT
Comes as Surprise to National Com

IS DEMOCRATIC TREASURER
He Will Leave for Chicago to Be-

Days.

NEW YORK, September 26-Herman
vice chairman Of the publicity bureau of
the democratic national committee, was
tonight appointed by National Chairman
Mack as treasurer of the national COM
mittee to succeed Gov. Charles n. Has
keil of Oklahoma. who resigned his po-
siton early today in Chicago.
The appointment Of Mr.. Ridder as treas
urer Of the committee was made a few
minutes before Chairman Mack's depart
ure for the west.
The chairman called up Mr.. Ridder on
the telephone and asked him If he would
accept the position, and Mr.. Ridder
agreed to take up the work of securing
funds to conduct the democratic national
campaign. Mr.. Ridder will spend much
Of his time in Chicago, where the main
headquarters of the committee is To-
Gated.
Came as Surprise.
The appointment of Mr.. Ridder came as
a surprise to national committeeman here
who had been given to understand that
a western man would be appointed. Mr..
Mack said:
II am very much pleased that Mr.. Rid
der has seen fit to accept the RESPONSE
biities of the treasurershp. He is a
very high type of the American business
man and one whose associations and con-
nections will not bring him under charge
of suspicion of having to do with these
corporations to which democracy is op-
posed"
Earlier in the day Mr.. Mack announced
that he would not make public his selec-
ton for the office of treasurer until Mon
day, but tonight he secured Mr.. Ridder' S
acceptance, and decided to make the an
nouncement at once. Mr.. Ridder will
likely leave for Chicago within few days
to take up the work at headquarters.
Mr. Ridder was seen at the Hoffman
House tonight and said:
Mr. Mack offered me the position of

that / favor tariff reform. and as the only
hope Of tariff reduction is in the success
of BRYAN and the democratic party.

office and do everything in my power to
assist the democratic party to win, that
