SEA GIRT, July ia story was
printed in the New York Evening

the effect that Woodrow Wilson had
announced his opposition to the can
didacy of Governor John A. Dix for
a second term. The idea was sought
to be conveyed that this reported OPP
position of the presidential candidate
was In some way connected with the
Empire State Democracy which SEN
ator Franklin D.. Roosevelt Is to or
ganize at the Hotel Belmont, New

When the story reached Governor
Wilson at Sea Grit last night 1t
caused him to sit up straight In his
chair.

dubious struggle with that power for
every inch of progress and for the
accomplishment of every desired re-
form; when historic names become

for a readjustment of the fundamen-

DEMOCRATS OF

.23O Representative
to Visit Sea Grit in
a Body Saturday.
fFrom a SIAN Correspondent.

SEA GRIT. July 16.-while the
complete ratification by the National
Democratic Committee in Chi
cago of Governor Wilson's proposals
for the Presidential campaign was
confidently expected by him 1t was
nevertheless gratifying news to the
New Jersey executive. The knowl-
edge that the committee is a unit in
backing his policies and the men he
has chosen to carry them through
leaves the candidate plain sailing for
the present.
Scarcely had the telegram been de-
livered to the Governor announcing
the election of William F. McCombs
to the craftsmanship when a message
came over the wire from Washington
asking that the candidate make an
appointment to receive at the sum-
mer capitol on Saturday of this week
the 230 Democratic members of the
National Congress. They will come
on a special train, and it Is likely
they will meet here also the nominee
for the Vice-Presidency, Governor
Marshall, of Indiana. whom Gov
ernor Wilson has indicated he would
make every attempt to have here
when they arrive.
