ment by Leaguers
By GEORGE A. VAN SMITH


r. Congressman Everis Arson Hayes
brother Editor J. o. Hayes, suspects
that Senator Eddie Wolfe. who would
enjoy = seat in a congress full of Can
mons, is the plotter in chief
Congressman Red" HAYES declares
through Editor Black Hayes that any
statement that he does not want the
support Of the Roosevelt lea que
Is Wantonly false and other things be-
-ond expression and unfit for publica-
1ion
II was given out in Washington a few
DAYS ago that Rel Hayes was embar-
Lassed 10y the friendship OF the Lincoln
Roosevelt league. which organization
ne reared would indorse him and there
oE assure him Of the machines opposi-
non The publication in California Of
thar announcement has caused Con-
stess1an Hayes TO announce through
EDITOR Hayes Nhat his attitude is one
Of desire for the support Of the Lincoln
roosevelt people, and he has said moth
ing 70 the contrary aud shall say moth
irg.
INDORs EMENT IN QUESTION
II Congressman Hayes intended that
Editor Hayes should enter a denial OF
the report that Congressman Hayes
ol1 not want the Lincoln Roosevelt
leagues Endorsement, that intent was
not made plain by the editor brothers
statement.
None would pretend to believe that
congressman Hayes or any other office
holder did not want the support OF
every voter, clique. clan. faction or
gregation of voters. The story from
Washington in 10 wise touched upon
ths question of support. II had to do
with Endorsement"
Ia any event. without reference to
Endorsement, Editor Hayes says that
. Congressman Hayes attitude is one
b ~ desire for the support Of the Lin
. coln-RooseveIt people
u Editor Hayes also SAYS that he fears
. that the report that his brother had
anything but the kindiiest feeling for
re leaguers was put in circulation by
Eddie Wolfe, who was in Washington
st the time.
TWO VERSIONS OF DOWNFALL
That too much participation in
. big primary fight is attended with no
small risk has been conclusively if not
satisfactorily proved TO W. r. Garrett,
Formerly city attorney at Dunsmuir.
:. Garrett lost his job immediately after
v Johnson meeting at Dunsmuir.
here are two versions of the story Of
Garretts downfall. The first was told
by the special correspondents who ac-
tompanied Johnson on his northern
tour
A san Francisco paper sought to show
that Johnson had Siskiyou county in a
walk because Garrett, one of Curry's
verihcatiOn deputies, had presided at
the Dunsmuir meeting The city at
torney OF Dunsmuir is appointed by the
trustees. A new board Of trustees had
been elected on the eve of the Johnson
meeting.
TRUSTEES DISMISS ATTORNEY
The new board was hastily convened
and Garrett was asked TO explain how
he could be in two political camps.
He furnished the other version. He
told the trustees that he was not in
The Johnson camp; that the Johnson
men had understood that he was not
a supporter OF their candidate and that
his participation in the meeting con-
sisted solely in saying, Ladies and
gentlemen, I have the honor to in
troduce Hiram ". Johnson5
Garrett told the trustees that a rep
resentative Of the Johnson party had
told him that -they could not secure a
- resident Of DunsmUir to preside and
urged him as a city official TO make
q perfunctory introduction and thereby
conserve the towns reputation for hos
pitality.
The trustees did not formally desig-
nate the version Of its choice but when
il adjourned Garrett was no longer city
attorney.
ANDERSoN's MANAGERS NAMED
c. C. Moore, J. X. Wilson, J. D. Grant,
C. F. Leege and Charles Carpy have
been named as the executive committee

night II is announced that this execu-
tive committee will assume the man
agement Of Anderson's local campaign
and participate in the promotion Of his
candidacy throughout the state
II is a poor week that does not de-
velop q primary campaign enthusiast
who has "a roll TO bet on his favorite,
and is usually content to set newspaper
I. action for his money, after falling to
= get il on with the cravens OF the other
side. Something like $3.50 worth of
defs have been hurled through tho
newspapers by the publicity depart
4oents of the several campaign organ
fzations Those departments have not
notified the newspapers of the arrange
ment Of four bits worth Of real bets.
It was announced yesterday that the
ire Of Fred 3. Adams, a retired mer-
chant of Sacramento, had been reused
bv the suggestion that some one
=. wanted 70 bet that Curry would beat
Anderson in Sacramento 1t was also
announced that Adams was so indig-
nant that he was ready TO bet any
j.: thing up to $4,000 that Anderson would
=. carry the capital city.

JOHNSON IN THE LEAD
The reports have probably lost
