New-York tribune., 1911-01-22
Griscom Uraes Heacock.

It would be a bad thing in his opinion.
said Mr.. Griscom. to place any man at
the head Of committee in which he had
led faction. He thought it would be
much better 10 take a man who had not
taken part in factonal difficulties and
upon whom all factions could unite.
Such man was Senator Heacock, who
had been suggested by the Senators rep
resenting large districts up the state. Mr..
Griscom said he did not wish TO deny
that Mr.. Barnes had political ssgacity
and energy, but he feared he was not
the man to bring about the harmony that
President Taft desired.
Harmony was the burden of the re-
marks Of Mr.. Aldridge, and he dUclt also
on the fact that the individual voter was
taking a greater part in the affairs Of the
party than heretofore, largely because OF
the primary law, which permitted him 50
to do. He said that the great need OF
the Republican party was harmony; that
1t would never do to fight over the seloc-
ton 0i state chairman. He pointed to
the fact that Mr.. Prentice had been
elected chairman unanimously, and sug-
sested that Mr.. Barnes might be elected
In the same way.
That is hardly the way TO bring about
harmony said Samuel S. Koenfg Ito
elect man who has fought at the head
of faction. Instead of healing the old
wounds it will make them deeper. Such
action Is likely to give offence to the
Roosevelt Republicans. ! want it under
stood that there is nothing personal in
my attitude, but from a party point OF
view the election Of Mr.. Barnes is most
undesirable"
Whereupon Abraham Gruber got up and
said that Mr.. Barnes and Mr.. Roosevelt
had always worked together until last
fall, when they differed over policies.
Mr.. Barnes had worked for Mr.. Roose-
welt for Governor inlS9S and had been
twice appointed to Office by him when
President Then. Mr. Gruber opined, the

the total membership, is not necessary IN
order 10 elect constitutionally two mem
bers of the United States Senate.
". f. Chiffon and Clarence W. Watson.
the two Democrats chosen by the Demo-
cratic caucus, were in Washington to-day
consulting with the minority members Of
the Senate. They were told that the
fifteen Republicans refused 70 return 10 the
state in order 10 permit the organization
of the state Senate then the Democratic
members of the Senate should meet with
the Democratic members Of the House and
elect two Democratic members Of the
United States Senate

day that there are .precedents for such
action, and that the two West Virginia
