IS
MUCH WORRIED now
Over the Possible Effect of
Wilcy-Wilson Cabe
Department Feud.
palladium Specially

WASHINGTON, Aug. 19.-Friends
Of the administration are giving unmis-
taxable signs OF worry over the posi-.
BILE political effect of the Wilson Will
ey-McCabe fued. Before the Moss in
vestigating committee took 1t UP II
was apparent that the public was ov-
erwhelmingly in favor OF the doughty
doctor as against the willy solicitor
and with the evidency anything like
even between them DR.. Wiley would
be sustained by public opinion. Lit
tie testimony had been taken before
the majority of the committee was
convinced of three facts: first that IL
DIR. Wiley was guilty OF any infraction
OF law in connection with the appoint
ment of DR.. Rusby as pharmacogocist.
there were plenty of presidents for
! his action. created by Secretary Will
son and Solicitor McCabe; second that
III DR.. Wiley had erred he had done so
on the side of the people and not on
the side of the fooddopers: and third,
that II he lost his position there would
be q howl from the American people
that could be heard around the world.
, incidentally, the testimony showed
that for some years DR.. Wiley had
been completely shorn OF power In
Connection with the administration OF
the pure food act. The committee
was therefore ready to report exoner-
Nating DR.. Wiley a few days after 1t
began it's Investigations. but it was
ion the track of too interesting mater
dal
doc" Wiley Is a Hoosier and back
home" they think heap of him. He
set Indiana right on pure food before
he left there thirty years ago to work
for the government. Indiana glories
in what IL probably the best pure food
law in the country. Certain manufac-
turers, seeking to force on the Hoos.
Hers their health authorities have con.
demned, have tried to upset the law
and have 1t declared unconstitutional
To assist them the department OF az
riculture loaned these manufacturers
such witnesses as they desired, includ-
ing the famous Remson board, the de-
parment paying the expenses. The
state of Indiana had to furnish it's own
witnesses and was put to all the ex-
pense and trouble possible by the de.
partment of agriculture. These facts
are percolating through the minds of
the Indiana taxpayers and voters and
they are getting "all het up" and the
longer the rumpus continues the hot
ter they are getting.
At least that Is about the substance
of letter addressed to the President
by an Indiana Republican politician of
considerable prominence, who believes
the Wiley wilson McCabe row Is cal.
culated to result disastrously on his
party unless speedily and satisfactor-
lily settled.
