Wells Wilson's Treasurer.

A special dispatch from Trenton, New
Jersey, of recent date SAYS that Governor
Wilson has announced the appointment
of Rollo Wells. the former Mayor Of
Saint Louis, Missouri, to be treasurer of
the National Democratic Committee, and
of Charles r. Crane, Of Chicago, to be
vicc-chairman of the Finance Committee.
of which Henry Morganthau, o! New
York. has been chosen chairman
I'VE want to take the government out
OF the hands of the trustees and put It in
hands of those that we can truss. This
was Governor Woodrow Wilson's first
campaign utterance as he addressed a
delegation of 200 Democrats from Del
aware led by the National Committee
man, Willard Salisbury.
Mr. Salisbury had declared that Del
aware hoped through his influence to be
redeemed from the dshnnor that has
been put upon her by the political su-
premacy OF the trust millionaire and the
public service corporations which she
still endures with indignation, impa-
tienCe and disgust"
The government Of New Jersey was
verv bad. " said Governor Wilson in re.
ply, but the people were sound to the
core, and all that they were waiting for
was some means by which they could eX-
press themselves. We had tied our
selves up by some very ingenious polit
icaI arrangements which made il difficult

Democrats Would Groom John
Lebherz for the MaYoraltY.

The Niagara Falls Gazette says: Sh-h-
speak it low and gentle The Demo-
cratic organization leaders believe they
have discovered way to continue their
grip on the city administration for an
other two years. But they are wary of
spreading the news until they have got
the ways well creased for launching.
Works Commissioner John Lebherz is
the man on whom they are now centering
therhopes. They are quietlygrooming him
for the Democratic nomination for MAYOR.
Mayor Keller is slated for sld-tracking by
the organization leaders if all goes well
with their little scheme to put Lebherz
over. In fact it is said to have been more
than intmated to the mayor that he must
step aside out of the way of the Lebherz
boom when it is trotted out into the
open. Whether the mayor will be con-
tent to accept the dictum of the bosses
remains TO be seen. The mayor is not
talking.
Lebherzs alleged independence in pol
ltlcs within the party is being banked on
by the bosses to heal the wounds which
the administrators have inflicted for two
years past upon the element in the party
which is now banded for independent &C
ton ander the leadership of Philip Crck,
John I. WEIGH and and the Wilson and
Marshall Club. The fact that he has for
the past two years been a member of the
administration family. through appoint
ment by Mayor Keller to the Public
Works board, has led the administration
ring to believe they can still have big
hand in fine manipulation of the munlpal
machinery with Mr. Lebherz as Mayor.
Mr. Lebherz's friends of the independent
stripe believe he would. if elected, neatly
kick the ring schemes tor power into a
cooked hat.
Certain it is, however, that a movement
is afoot on the part of the organization
leaders looking to the bringing forth of
Mr.. Lebherz as a mayoralty candidate.
He has never held political office except
his present works commissionship He
is a resident OF the Twelfth Ward and is
a member of the Frontier Brass Foundry.
Mr.. Lebherz is a son of Joseph Leb-
herr. Of this city. and is well known as
political worker. He was a staunch
Democrat when he resided in this city
and a faithful worker for the organlza.

is pleasantly received by his many friends
here, and that he will make good if elect

EXCERPTS FROM GOVERNOR

supply should be and agreements among

a story that made fiction look common:
place. He was born in the. north. OF
ireland, he said, and when boy OF IS
accidentally became a stoWaWaV. he
was PLAYING hide and seek with some
COMPANIONS and during an interval IN
the came fell asleep aboard a tramp
schooner. When he awoke the vessel
had put out to sea and the lad was de-
livered over to a brutal sea captain;
a South Ireland native, who vented all
of his hatred of the North Islanders
upon the friendless boy.
For months the lad was beaten and
kicked at will, and when the coast OF
Patagonia was sighted the captain con-
ceived the plan of putting the boy ashore
and allowing him TO be eaten by cannl,-
balls. Although the captains wife prayed
to her husband to be merciful, this was
done.
Meanwhile, during the voyage, the
captain had tattooed various parts OF
the bows body, seemingly to enjoy his
pain. Among other things he tattooed
crncitix on Needham's left arm.
A few hours after he had been ma
rooned the lad was discovered by a band
of cannibals. who carried him into the
interior Upon arriving at their village
they stripped Needham, preparatory TO
slaughterng and feasting upon him,
when. beholding the crucitix, Won
derful change came over his captors.
Many wears before. it seems, the JeS5'
uits had engaged in missionary work
among the barbarIans, and among other
things told them the story of the cross
and of Christ's second coming The
simple savages had received story from
their forefathers to the effect that God,
the Man who formerly died on the
cross in Palestine, was going to visit
them.
The tattooed cross on Needham 5
arm convinced the most skeptical that
the stranger was the long heralded god,
and they Immediately restored his
clothes and made him a chief. After
living with the cannibals for more thar
IS months Needham escaped and made
his way to a settlement. Later he
crossed the Andes Mountains and mar
rowlv escaped being shot as a spy by
the Paraguayans, by whom he was cap,
tured An unexpected climax in his ad
, ventures was the conversion OF the bruta
sea captain, years afterward, in mis-
sion in Southern Maryland where Need

the Progressive Republican Senators
assisted in the Senate they only repre-
sented the people who elected them and
who demanded that they Join with the
Democratic House of Representatives
in passing measures in the interest OF all

be admitted, that the present House of

which will be an absolute guarantee Of

this present House Of Representatives
the Sixth Congressional District Of
Maryland has been represented by Hon.
David !. Lewis, Democrat. Suffice it
is to say that our Representative has
been in the forefront OF the fight. Our
Representative has been laborious, and
has done effective work for the good of

from this State in this generation. He
has been a power behind many OF the
most important measures, and all OF
pressing importance to the people.
He was early in the fight against the
extortions of the express companies,
and the express companies have been
called down. He is now making a
strong fight for the Parcels Post Bill,
which will be of almost incalculable bene-
fit TO the mass Of the people. He has
also taken a great and active interest in
the matter Of the War Claim of Fred

benefit to our town and people in reduc-
