Washington, June S.-To The Forum:
When in North Dakota recently there
was much interest and inquiry as &c
Ithe alleged speech OF Senator Johnson
ON Alexander Hamilton. The newspa-
Ipers of the country have carried much
bitter comment relative to the matter
tand was requested by not few to
Hook the matter up and give the facts
ION my return to Washington.
The only reference to the matter will
be found on page 1888 of The Congress
!sional Record in the proceedings in
johnson introduced a joint resolution
80 repeal the joint resolution of March
4, 1909, authorizing the selection of a
site and the erection of pedestal for
the Alexander Hamilton memorial in
Washington, d. c., and asked that the
resolution be referred to the commit
tee of which he was chairman. He
stated that the resolution which 1T is
proposed to repeal, came from the IL
brary committee; that 1t passed that
committee but he found no report
from the committee; that his request
was in the nature OF an appeal from
their decision. Senators Scott, CALM
Nger and Hale objected to the proposed
Preference of the resolution to Mr..
Johnson's committee on the ground
sthat the library committee would be
THE proper reference, and Senator AL
drich suggester that the resolution lie
lupon the table, remarking that he sup
hposed Senator Johnson would like to
gmddress the senate on the subject la
ter. There was not a word OF I'M
&friendly comment on Alexander Ham
8dIlton by Senator Johnson, or any ref
Aerence whatever to his character pub
l lie or private. Had he desired to de-
SIiver an eulogy on Alexander Hamilton
the resolution offered by him would
have been proper in order to bring the
matter before the senate and give him
the opportunity to speak on some con-
fvenient occasion.
Whether the seed sown by Senator
johnson on this occasion was good or
fbad, there Is an enemy OF the senator
who will not wait for men to sleep 10
SOW tares in his wheat. You may ex-
pect to find him misrepresented on all
possible occasions. There is not one
word Of truth in the story Of the
speech attributed to him in relation TO
Alexander Hamilton. And you may
safely expect other untruths and mis-
representations to be sent broadcast
for the purpose of injuring him and
discredtting his following
Senator Johnson is ever on the alert
not only as to the interests of North
Dakota but on measures pending be-

the tariff for instance he called atten-

was struggle for the control of the
Pacific who the contestants were and
how and why America should win.
Mr.. Clary's grafton was on the
same subject. In delivery, many who

Mr.. Wenzel closely for first honors on
delivery.
Mr.. Alseth took for his theme, The
Toilers, and discussed the conditions
of the working people Of today. He
held that social democracy alone Of
fered the solution.

HAS MADE CLEAN RECORD
HE IS THE FIRST CANDIDATE TO
ENTER FIELD FOR STATE OF.
FicE, ALTHOUGH COX HAS
SHOWN SYMPTOMS.
palladium Specially

indianapolis, Dec. 14.-Thomas Ho-
nan, OF Seymour, speaker of the last
house of representatives, announced
here last night that he is a candidate
for the democratic nomination for at
torney general. He says he will get
into the fight at once and begin to
line up his forces. Honan is one of the
cleanest and best liked men in the
democratic party in the state, and he
made record as speaker last winter
that won him many friends among the
republicans as we'll as among the dem
ocrats. He has served several terms
In the Legislature. In 1907 he was the
democratic floor leader in the house
when the democrats were in the ma
jority. He is not a radical on any
subject.
Honan is graduate of Indiana uni
versity, and when he ran for represent
tative he had the support of Judge
Joseph H. Shea. of Seymour. who with
Senator Shively. is a member of the
Indiana university board of trustees
This situation amounted to something
for Shively, too, when he was out for
United States senator last winter for
Honan worked with Shea for Shively's
election
Cox May Enter Field.
Honan is the first democrat to form
ally announce his candidacy for a
state nomination. James F. Cox, Of
Columbus, who has twice been the
nominee for secretary of state and
been defeated both times. is under
stood to want the nomination the
third time, but there is strong senti-
ment among the democrats this time
to nominate new men and make a new
deal entirely. If this plan were fol-
lowed it would mean the elimination
of Cox as well as of all of the other
candidates who were on the democra-
tic state ticket last year. Governor
Marshall is one of the leaders in the
movement for new ticket made up
of men who have never before been
nominated. and what Governor Marsh
all says in democratic politics during
the next two or three years in Indiana
is going to carry weight.
There was some talk of Senator
FRANK h1stIer, or LOganSpOrt In con-
nection with the nomination for attor-
ney general, but Kistler said some
time ago that he would not be a can
didate. Thus far there is no known
opposition to Honan
Two Republicans Out
There are at this time two avowed
candidates for the republican nomin-
alton for attorney general. William
Bosson and NJ. L. Clawson, both of

fore they adjourn tonight they will
