STALKING HORSE FIGHT
MADE AGAINST WILSON
Allies Are Pushing Candidates
Into Field From Every Sec
tionItO Break Vote
BY RALPH SMITH.

WASHINGTON, March 2.-Where a
few months ago there was only one
active and aggressive candidate in the
field against Woodrow Wilson for the
democratic presidential nomination. to-
day there is one in each section OF
the country. The fanure of the Har-
mon candidacy to make any material
Roadway, made it necessary for those
who are directing the opposition to the
New Jersey executive to lay out a
new plan of campaign.
The result is that a southerner Is
now making the race in the south, Il
western man occupies the field in the
west a northern candidate has the
north as his territory. all struggling
in common effort to secure enough To-
cal support whereby Woodrow Wilson
can be deprived of one-third of the
delegates at the democratic national
convention.
10 the public at large it is now
clear as the MONDAY sun that a stalk
ing morse fight is being conducted
against the New Jersey executive, who
from the beginning has been the pop
ular choice of the democrats every
where for the presidency
The feature of this combination
fight is that it is backed by a great
amount of money, which is being law
ishly spent in assaults on Governor
Wilson and the laudation of the allies
individually and collectively.
Not until it was apparent to the pub
lie generally that Governor Harmon's
candidacy has fallen flat did the oppo-
sition hit upon the ally plan of cam
paign Now there is thorough under
standing, teamwork and cooperation IN
the fight that is being so bitterly di-
rected against Governor Wilson.
No such harmony of interests has
ever been witnessed I'M this country.
There is one common purpose in
view, and that is to eliminate the real
progressive in the fight for democrat
ic leadership. The activities of those
pushing the fight of the allies is sub
ject of much comment here.
Literature of an anonymous charac-
ter assaulting Governor Wilson is be-
ing circulated from one end of the
country to the other. A number or
these anonymous articles laudatory or
Champ Clark and bitterly assailing
Governor Wilson are being given the
widest sort of circulation in the west
ern states, where primaries and state
conventions are soon to be held.
Practically all of this literature is
based on Misrepresentation and is
backed up by SANDER and falsehood.
Some significance is attached to the
fact that in most of this anonymous
literature there is an article contain
ing an eight-page printed letter from
G. F. williams to former Senator Pet
tigrew, of South Dakota, VINO is one OF
Speaker Clar1's campaign managers.
Until recently Pettigrew claimed men,
bership in either the populist or repub-
lican parties.

TAMPA. Fla, March 2.-Following
his mysterious disappearance from Sa-
vannah. Mo-. about two weeks ago., and
suffering from what appears to have
been a lapse of memory, John a. Etchi-
son, a prominent business man OF st
Joseph. Mo, was located in an upper
Franklin street house this morning by
T Ed Bryan, a friend Of the family,
who had been advised that it was be-
Iieved that he had come to this city,
Mr.. Etchison's recollections of what has
transpired during the two weeks or
more since he has been away from Sa-
vannah are vague and somewhat hazy.
Certain features of his ex periences
stand out more prominently than others,
but none has left a clear impression
on his mind.
He seems to remember having drawn
from a bank in Savannah S1O4, 900 de-
posted TO his credit, but what has be-
come of that amount he has not the
faintest sdea. None Of IT is now in his
possession. and when located by Mr..
Bryan this morning. he was apparently
destitute. His clothes were worn and
shabby. and he has practically no
funds.

on leaving Savannah. Mr.. Etchison
remembers nothing except that he
started for Hot Springs. Ark, to take
the mud baths treatment. Whether he
ever reached there or not he does not
know. but surmises that he did not.
The next thing that seems to have inn
pressed itself upon his memory is the
fact that while in Kansas City he sus-
tanned a bad fall on the street that in
jured him severely, but not seriously.

Praises Cold Storage


NEW YORK, March 2.-The advent
Of the cold storage warehouse was the
greatest boon to the housewife in i
century, acc ording to testimony given
in the state food cost investigation
here by Frank A. Horne an official Of
one of the biggest New Jersey refrig-
Grating concerns. Mr.. Horne submitted
figures proving that the average price
of butter and eggs has greatly de-
creased as a res lit of the ability OF
the wholesalers to store great quanti-
ties in the summer and keep cheap
prices in the winter months.
"I have never known of a corner in
cold storage products" said Mr.. Horne.

tiplicity of owners to such an extent
that a corner would be impossible.

age of unfit goods and examinations

Mr.. Etchison's story of his eXpe-

can not remember, by contrast with
