oAYNTER DEFENDS LORIMER
President Taft's Name is Brought Into
the Discussion.
PURELY A LEGISLATIVE ACT
Kentucky Senator Intimates that the
President Desires LOrimer I'm
seated, Then Denies that
He Takes Part.

WASHINGTON Jan. 25.-For the first
time since the debate in the senate in the
case Of Senator William Lorimer Of Hi
nois began mention was made today of the
reported interest Of the president in the
unseating OF that senator, because Of the
charge of bribery made in connection with
his election.
Tho reference was by Senator PaynteI
of Kentucky who was a member OF the
subcommittee which made the investiga-
ton into the charges and of the full com
mittee on privileges and elections which
brought in a report generating the llh-
nos senator.
Declaring the question to be judicial
one, Mr. Paynter said:
81 did not approach the investigation
with any feeling or thought that the couh
try demanded a victim to appease It
wrath. neither did ! suppose that sscri-
ficial offering would be made to satisfy a
popular demand to give character and
standing TO the administration"
Having brought the president into the
discussion the Kentucky senator profess
edly undertook to eliminate him from It
Referring to the frequent assertion In the
public press that the president Is using his
personal, II not his official Influence
against Mr.. Lorimer, Mr.. Paynter said he
desired to resent the imputation against
the president.
Purely n Legislative Act.
The president is a great lawyer h'
said, "and knows that the constitution di
vided our government into branches, and
that It was intended that one branch shoulC
not invade the province of another. The
president knows that the senate is made
the Judge of election of it's members; there
| fore the constitution denies to the execu
| tive and judicial branches the right to de
termine who ls entitled to seat in thii
| body. Certainly the president would no
attempt to violate the spirit, II not th'
| letter of the constitution, which ne hal
| promised to obey"
Referring to Senator Beveridge and tn
minority report he presented, attacking tn
Lcrimer election, Mr. Paynter remarked:
III he committed an error in the prep
aration of the minority report, / think h
is entirely excusable. The senator evi
IDENTIFY had to prepare it in great haste
because he and another distinguished sen
ator, Mr.. owen from Oklahoma, were in
mad rush, in frantic effort to strik
the first blow in this contest.
Both, from their point of view, were en-
deavoring to enlighten an expectant publ
upon a question affecting the honor an
dignity OF this body"
Praise for LOrimer.
Mr.. Paynter defended the character o
Senator Lorimer, who, he said was .
man af perfect morals and also spok
in terms Of praise Of Speaker Shurtleff O
the Illinois house OF representatives an
Representative Lee ONeill Browne, tn
minority leader. who gave their supper
| 70 Lorimer.
Taking cognizance of the demand upo
him from his own state to oppose Lorimel
Mr. Paynter said he could not yield eve
II he knew 1t would cost him his seat.
