enneSs,
Or any faint of vice whose strong

A Row Was Raised.
I would like to go on and tell you,
gentle reader, in detail all about the
state convention of 1904. how the or
ganization reluctantly consented to my
election as chairman of the congress
sional convention of this the Third
district. how they requested" that l
place in nomination the Hon. Joseph
E. Lee as chairman of the state con-
vention, how obeyed, and many other
incidents and details, and how when
the time came for McGourin's head to
be decapitated. according to schedule,
they found that the congressional COM
mittee of the district and the county
committee of Escambia county saw fit
to nominate Bruce S. Weeks for Unit
ed States marshal, and what a row it
raised, and how they backed and filled
on it, and how after Mr.. Coombs had
written me a letter which / have, stat
ing that no action would be taken until
after he had had a conference with
me, he went down to Jacksonville and
with a few office holders from East
Florida, they held meeting in Joe
Lees Office and called it a meeting of
the state committee, and endorsed Nc
Gourin for appointment, and how
at my request they held another meet
ing in Tallahassee, which was COM
posed of eight or ten office holders
and after arguing with them peaceabIy
over the unfairness of their position
finally turned loose and denounced
them for what they were, and as the
darkey said ''cussed every cuss knew
and Chubb ran out of the room and
the meeting was broken up.
His Connection Terminated.
However this meeting also endorsed
McGourin. This terminated in Deem
Der, 1905, my connection with the ''or-
ganization." Capt. Bill Northup, Nc
Gourin and myself all came home to-
gether and McGourin and Capt Bill

tice, but McGourin was happy because
he was in the organization and
oF a.
and Capt. Bill was happy on general
principles.
And, further how I went on tc
Washington and laid the situation all
before Mr.. Cortelyou, the postmaster

of Senator Hanna to turn the organ
ization down and secured McGourin's
appointment.
A month later DR.. Pollock, then
postmaster at Pensacola, died, and the
organization supported Mr.. w. 0. H.
Sheppard for this appointment.
MIR. E. F. Skinner and myself took
up the candidacy of Xix NJ. Robinson
and went on to Washington and again
with the aid of Senator Hanna, the or
ganization was turned down and Rob-
inson was appointed.
When McGourin's first term expired
in 1908, the organization went after
his scalp and almost got it. True to
Capt. Bill Northup, they supported him
and got President Roosevelt to appoint
him, and his name was sent to the
senate for confirmation. McGourin
won the sympathy of Senator Hanna,
and that noble representative of the
days when the G. o. P. produced men,
walked up to President Roosevelt and
told him that McGourin had been good
enough for Mckinley and he ought to
be good enough for him, and that if
he didn't withdraw that appointment
fl m the senate and appoint McGourin,
tildI u0 WOulQ Iudho II HIS SpSCldl puSl-
ness to see that Northup's confirma-
tim was rejected. There was one man
at least of whom Roosevelt stood in
awe, and that was the senator from
Ohio who was talking to him. He
withdrew the appointment and ap-
pointed McGourin.
A few months later, however, Robin
sons term as postmaster expired and
again the organization supported
Northup and Rix M Robinson was
dismissed without even a few kind
words and Capt. Northup at last had
a job.
So in 1904, the organization had
definitely decided that at the end of
McGourin's term that he should go.
Senator Hanna was dead and they
boosted of their great influence with
Roosevelt, asserting that he would do
anything they asked in regard to ap-
pointments in Florida and ask no
questions.
How ungrateful they must have
seemed to Roosevelt last June in Chi

dent by and with the consent of the
fuses its consent that he shall within
a certain number of days make an ap-
pointment of another man.
Reflections by the senate such as in
Northup's case are very rare, but ap-
pointments very frequently as in the
famous negro Crum case of Charleston
die in the senate. In the latter event
the president can, if he wishes, make
an ad interim appointment of the same
man.
Now do you think Roosevelt paid
any attention TO the provisions of the
constitution in the Northup case?
Not a bit more than he did TO the
wind murmuring through the willow
trees back of the White House. He
let Northup remain in the position for
over a year, during which time Sem
ator Mallory died, and not until SEN
ator Taliaferro introduced a resolution
in the senate inquiring by what au-
thority VIM. II. Northup was discharg-
ing the duties of postmaster at Pen
sacola, Fla, did he take any action in
the case, and then what do you think
he did at the request Of the 'organiza-
ton?
Nothing except appoint Rix NJ. Rob-
inson.
But not, dear friends. until he had
signed letter prepared for him to
sign. repudiating my humble self and
all affiliation with me, and lauding this
organization. which he had been de-
nouncing, as the hottest of HOLES, and
all in it from top to bottom.
And likewise they made him publish
it in this same Pensacola Journal that
this article appears in. And if you
will go back to the files of said PEN
sacola Journal of March. 1908, you will
find it there so that he who runs may

committee, and also Mr.. Taft, then
secretary of war, and asked them to
tell the president what kind of a bunch
of bushwhackers he had taken to his
bosom in Florida. How they talked
nice to me, but without any change in
the results
But time is flying and election is
almost here, and soon 1 hope and be-

lican political bushw hacker in the

And so McGourin was again APP
pointed for the only reason that / had
obeyed the orders of the "organiza-
tim" only too well, but the man, Bruce
5. Weeks, whom the local organization
had endorsed was guilty of being my
friend.
But everything did not run smoothly
with them.
Northup was re-appointed postmas-
ter, but Senator Mallory lived in PEN
sacola and he saw fit to oppose North
ups confirmation on the grounds of
senate examined the evidence and re-
jected the nomination.
After this action went on to Wash
ington and urged the appointment of
Rix NJ. Robinson, who had given sat
isfaction to the public during his pre-
vious four years tenure. To be sure
of getting an audience with the pres
ident, asked his brother in law, Ad-
miral Cowles, whom I knew well, to
take me to the White House. He did
so, but Mr.. Loeb, after promising that
he would see that l had an audience
with the president, after the admiral
had gone suggested and advised that
I "see Mr.. Hitchcock" and tell him
my story, and stating that if after
talking with him I still desired to see
the president to come back and he
would get me an audience.
I didn't know it then, but when the
Roosevelt or Taft administrations
wanted to give anyone the double
cross they have him see Mr.. Hitch

and / was never received more cor
daily by anyone in my life. Mr.

CHAIRMAN BECK IN
A CONFIDENT MOOD
He Even Thinks the Demo-
Gratis Can Elect a Coun-
ty Ticket in Wayne.

Contrary to the rule or precedent,
as it may be considered, Richmond
Democrats are ready and willing to
accept nominations for any of the
county offices, according to Charles
Beck. Wayne county chairman and
Sixth District chairman of the Demo
cratic party. Mr.. Beck states that
the county ticket for the Democrats
has an excellent prospect of being
successful.
While Chairman Beck is not making
a howl, as he puts it, about carrying
the county this fall, yet he is looking
for big gain. He says that in case
Republican dissatisfaction increases,
the Democrats will have the chance
of their lives in this county, which
has been considered a Republican
stronghold.
Anyway, a county ticket will be put
in the field, as usual. Just how the
ticket is to be chosen has not been
decided; that is, whether a mass meet
ing will be held, to which all Demo
Gratis in the county will be invited, or
whether township meetings will be
held to elect delegates to a county
convention. The mass meeting or
county convention will be held during
the last week in August or the first
in September.
1t is believed that if each township
were to elect delegates to the conven-
ton, that a larger representation
would be had at the county conven-
ton, as voters would take more inter
est.
Already a great deal of work along
the lines of organizing the county has
been done, according to Chairman
Beck.
do you believe there is any doubt
about Finly Gray being reelected"
Mr. Beck was asked
There is not the least doubt" was
the emphatic answer. "Finly Gray has
done everything he promised to do
and has been a representative of the
whole people. Gray is man strictly
for the people and not the party.
While he is on the Democratic ticket
he is no more Democrat than a Re-
publican when it comes to doing right.
He can't see party lines in such cases.
That's what we must get away from
these party lines.
when Gray went to Washington
he wrote his platform and he has
The Richmond palladium and sun-telegram. [volume] (Richmond, Ind.) 1907-1939, 1912-07-22

abided by it. Gray will carry Wayne
county"
In answer to a question as to how
he found conditions in other counties
in the Sixth district, Chairman Beck
stated that everything is favorable
to Democratic victories, or gains, at
least. Mr. Beck said that he had sent
out letters to each of the eight coun-
ty chairmen in the district and had
just received replies from them, in
which they declared that prospects
for Democratic success never looked
better.
Mr.. Beck says that among those
spoken of for the nomination for rep
resentative from Wayne county is
Alonzo Bertsch, of Cambridge City,
who was a candidate for joint repre-
sentative two years ago.
Earl Crawford, farmer and school
teacher in Fayette county, is the Dem
ocratic nominees for joint representa-
tive of Wayne and Fayette counties.
