'Men Who Defend G. 0. P.

OYSTER BAY, n. Y, July 29.-Colo-
nel Theodore Roosevelt today reiter-
,+ed his charges that President Taft
was dishonesty renominated in Chi
oaro In. reply to the defense Of the
,onvention's action issued by the white
house Yesterday the x-president issued
p statement declaring that downright
theft' had been committed by Taft
Geutenants, and had 1t not been for
this the presidents denomination would
nave been absolutely impossible
Colonel Roosevelt condemns the Taft
defense as similar to that of Senator
r.orimer by those who sought to pre-
vent the Illinois man from being ousted
by the senate.
In concluding his statement. Colonel
Roosevelt said:
1T is no mere coincidence that at
least nine tenths Of the senatorial lead
ers in the theft of the Chicago conven-
tion were also leaders in the fight to
retain Mr.. Lorimer in his seat in the
senate-Messrs. Penrose, Guggenheim
Gauinger and Crane. for instance. The
two cases stand on a par
Fundamentally Like Lorimer Case.
The successful theft and fraud which
resulted in Mr.. Taft's nomination in
Chicago made a piece of political work
which fundamentally from the stand
point of decent politics and honest pop
ular government deserves to rank with
the proceedings which eliminated in
the election Of Mr.. Lorimer to the SEN
ate and his retention in the senate for
over two years after the mass of hon
est citizens had fully determined that
he should leave. There are politicians
and newspapers who continue to up
hold Mr. Lorimers innocence and to
assert that there was nothing improper

MASSEE CASE UP
To s. CAROLINA
Tennessee Governor Is Deter
mined to Let Authorities of
Sister State Take Action.

NASHVILLE TENN, July 29.-Gov-
ernor Ben w. Hooper said today that
he was determined to let the contro-
versy over the w j. Massee extradi-
ton be settled by the executive and the
courts of South Carolina He was inn
portuned to do this after the counsel
against Mr. Massee had urged him that
the case was not given a fair hearing
in Georgia in either instance when it
was presented.
Some rather spicy information is said
to have been conveyed to the governor
on this line, but he gave out none of
that upon which he based the recall Of
the revocation that he issued after he
had found that his secretary had un-
Willingly issued requistion papers In
the case.
This, it is claimed, was violation of
verbal agreement that Governor
Hooper had made with James B. Cox,
United States district attorney at
Knoxville, attorney for Massee. to the
effect that the case was not one that
would justify the pursuit of a man
from one state to another for extradi-
ton. After attorneys for r. NJ Will
liams, the prosecutor of Massee, had
presented to the governor of Tennessee
the report that they had never been
given fair hearing in Georgia, Gov
ernor Hooper, without accepting or re-
jecting the statement, decided to allow
the case to be passed on by the South
Carolina authorities The attorneys for
the prosecution are Harry S. Stokes,
now in Spartanburg. and Judge John A
Pitts, both of this city.

MACON. GA, July 29-Attorneys for

c. Worrill. of Cuthbert. that he convene
a special grand jury in Terrell county to
investigate the recent fiogging of the girl.
They declare that public sentiment de
mands that this affair be closely investi-
gated, and that an investigation is pecu-

w. S. Dozier, the man accused, is clerk of
the superior court of Terrell county
Judge Worrill's reply is expected this

Mayor John T Moore of Macon. is in
receipt of more than a hundred letters
from many states accusing him of COW
ardice for not having arrested Dozier and
the others who participated in the fog
ging AS the affair did not take place in

unjustly criticised.
