is absolutely without foundation.
Neither I nor anyone authorized to
represent me ever made any request
OF him."
This is the reply made here last
night by Governor Woodrow Wilson
of New Jersey when he was asked
concerning the statement made in
Washington last night by Colonel
Henry Watterson that he had been
asked by the managers Of Governor
Wilson's presidential campaign to aid
them in raising money. Colonel Wat
terson said that he had solicited
money for Thomas f. Ryan OF this
city and that the Wilson managers
seemed much pleased over what he
had done.
Washington, Jan, 27.--Large sums
of money for the purpose of aiding
the presidential canvass Of Governor
Woodrow Wilson Of New Jersey were
sought from Thomas Fortune Ryan.

the Louisville, Ky, editor while he
was working in Wilson's behalf. This
fact was disclosed when Mr.. Waiter
son made public certail letters which
had been exchanged by himself and
Senator B. r. rlllman Of South Caro-,
lima.
Watterson had been taken to task
by Tillman for not giving the ina
;erial facts" in regard to the break
between Watterson and Col. George
Harvey on the one hand and Governor
Wilson on the other Wattecson says
that the story has been circulated
with the knowledge or Gov. Wiiacn
that the reason Wilson broke with
Harvey was that Ryan had been asked
for help. Watterson declares, on the
other hand. that he himself had
sought aid from RYAN and that when
the milhonaire's name was suggested
to Wilson'S managers they were high
ly pleased, Wattorson says Harvey
bad nothing to DO wlthithe soliciting
of funds from Ryap.

just at that age between childhood
and young womanhood, the delightful
age OF sweet sixteen. 1t is the same

OPERATIONS
BEGUN IN THE BASIN
IDEAL SPRING WEATHER ENABLE
RANCHERS TO START THINGS
WITH A RUSH.

The ideal spring weather which has
prevailed throughout the Judith Basin
for almost week past has enabled
the farmers of this favored section
of the state to start out q season
which promises to be one of un-
paraleled activity. In many sections
of the Basin plowing is in progress
in full blast, and before the end of
another week hundreds of acres of
land will be put in shape for the SOW
ing OF grain.
From information gathered by the
Democrat there will be more grain
sown in the Basin this spring than
ever before. The late harvest last
fall prevented many ranchers from
getting in as large an acreage of win.
ter wheat as they desired and this
shortage will be made up by sowing
an increased acreage of spring wheat
flax, oats and barley.
Reports from all over the county
are to the effect that winter wheat is
looking exceptionally promising. The
great amount of moisture which has
fallen since the grain was put in the
ground last fall practically insures
another banner crop for the Basin
this year.

The Flood Situation.

Thirty thousand persons homeless:
2,OOO square miles OF country inun-
dated; 80 persons drowned, and a
financial loss of $10.OO0.OOO constitute
the result OF two weeks flood in
the Mississippi valley.
These figures were arrived at last
night by government engineers and
officials of the state levee boards en-.
gagged In battling the ravaging sweep
OF the Mississippi river from points
In Illinois to threatened places in
Mississippi and Arkansas.
Water is pouring into Arkansas
through three new breaks in the levee
south of Memphis. These gave way
yesterday, and several hundred square
miles are subject to flooding.
Railroad traffic virtually is para.
lyzed. Hundreds of persons are
menaced by the tide of the river al
points in lower Missouri. northwest
ern Tennessee and Arkansas. They
are marooned on house tops, in trees
and on anchored RATS in the sweeu
OF the river.
Hourly the danger zone works
southwark. In their upper reaches
the Ohio and Mississippi rivers are
nearly at standstill. This means
that the crest of the flood now Is
exerted on the dykes from the Mis-.
souri, line southwark. State and levee
board officials In the districts south
OF Memphis have been laboring all
day to stop the strained levees. The
Mississippi officials think their EN-
bankments will hold.
