Dear SRA brief reply to your last

attack upon Gov. Haskell and at

him to connect the Democratic party

trusts. | asked you 10 name d tri-
bUnal before which the charges could
be Investigated or, if you would not
do that. offered TO leave it to you to
say whether in your judgment the
charges justified Mr.. HaskelHS with
draWal from the organization. You did
not deign to suggest a tribunal. but
proceeded to pass judgment upon him.
He Immediately resigned his position
that he might b. more free to prose-
cute these who brought accusations
against him. Thus has connections

The Old Cup Defender Mayflower Is
On Search for Lost Treasure

Kingston, Jamaica, Sept. 30.-'Tis a
sunken Spanish galleon. laden with
treasure, that the schooner Mayfiower
searches: the secret of the mysterious
expedition from New York is now def
nitely known.
The Mayfiower is expected here
next week and will sail hence for
SantO Domingo
On board her then will be an expert
American diver, who has long served
the Jamaican Government. This diver
declares that while laying submarine
cables soon after Americas war on
Spain to free Cuba, he came across
ship on the oceans bottom where, 81
lent as the Flying Dutchman. she rode
as smoothly as if on the calmest sea.
The diver whose avocation demands
sObriety, who has a reputation for
industry and faithfulness, says fur
Their that he instantly recognized the
submerged ship as a Spanish galleon.
He descended TO her the next day,
made a closer examination and be-
came convinced that she is loaded with
gold and silver which more than two
hundred years ago was destined for
the treasury of Their Catholic Majes-
ties of Spain.
The diver says. too. that he failed TO
raise enough money 10 undertake an
expedition of his own to search the
galleOn. So he confided his secret to
another American. who organized the
Southern Research Company, which
sailed on the Mayfiower The diver
feels sure that the exploitation of the
wreck will be successful and that the
schooner will return with untold
wealth.

Will Prosecute Trusts


while the trust attorney to whom
you refer is not an official of trust,
will warn him and through him his
clients, that if l am elected, l will
not only vigorously enforce against all
offenders the laws, which we hope to
have enacted in compliance with the
Democratic platform, but that / will
also vigorously enforce existing laws
against any and all who violate them
and that | vii enforce them. but spas
medically and internationally. but per-
sistently and consistently; they Will
not be suspended, even for the protec

attitude Of many men of large finan-
cial interests warrants YOU in express
ing the belief that those trust mag
mates. whose fear of being prosecuted
under the law by Mr.. Taft is greater
than their fear of general business ad
versity under me. will support me
rather than Mr.. Taft. You have at
tempted to word that statement in
such a way as TO claim the support
of all the trust magnates, and yet put
it on the ground that they are sup
porting your party for patriotic rea-
sons rather than for the promotion of
a selfish interest. That is ingenious.
but ii is not sound The truse mag
mates are supporting the Republican
party and the Bible offers an explana-
ton. "the OK knoweth his owner and
the ass his masters crib" You admit
that you gave permission to the Steel
Trust to absorb a rival and thus in
crease its control of the output Of
steel and iron products. l will leave

upon that act and compare your posi-
ton on the trust question with mine.

If some of those who contributed to

pecuniary interest in the result of the
election. how will you explain the
enormous contributions to the Repub-

Democratic platform candidly de-
clared the party's purpose. If the
carrying out of that policy would have
been of advantage to anyone, the
whole public had knowledge and the
publication of the contributions would
not have affected the result. Publicity
as to campaign funds is not needed
to MAKE known that which is dis
closed by the platform. You certainly

to the beam when you find fault with

Resented Charges

"ln my first letter to you, | resented
the imputation that any charges made
against Gov. Haskell could b. justly
as connecting the Demo-
cratic party or me. as its candidate,
with any trusts or law-defying cor
poration. You replied that the charges
were a matter Of general notoriety,
and | asked you why Mr.. Taft did not
them when he made speeches
against Mr.. Haskell in Oklahoma.
You at once endeavOred to confront
me with new matters WHICH arose
after the Denver convention, and,
conscious that those charges were in
you have since given wings
to accusation that no disinterested
party would make against another
without investigation l am willing
that all your charges against me shall
be submitted to the voters of the
country and with your charges l sub
nit my denial of any knowledge or in
formation that could in the remotest,
connect me with any trust, monopoly
or law-defying corporation. My rec
ord is sufficient answer to your insln-
uation. I have lived in vain. If your
accusations lose me a single friend.
| challenged you to name a trust Off
cial who is supporting me. and. after
searching the country, you produce the
name of one man, not trust official
but the local attorney of q trust.
Without inquiring whether he votes
for me because of his connection with
a trust. or in spite of. or because of
his fear of business adversely under
Mr.. Taft. you accept his statement
that he will vote for me as conclusive
proof that l am in league with the
trusts. although you admit that trust
officials are supporting the Republican
ticket. You compliment me when
you measure me by a higher standard
than you do your political associates.
for you insist that Mr.. Rockefeller's
contribution to Gov. Hughes cam
paign fund was no reflection upon
him, and take it for granted that you
do not criticise Judge Taft's recon-
mendation of a Standard Oil attorney
to the federal bench. a place where
the judge might have to pass upon the
charges against the very trust ror
which he had been attorney.
