represents in the lower house the con-
gressional district in which the ward
Burke represents in council has an
nounced that If there is no other way
to restore his citizenship to Burke, he
will introduce a measure in congress
place in the world which he lost by
being convicted Of felony when he
entered the Charlestown prison.
Lawyer Puzzled.
Local lawyers are at odds as to the
best method of restoring Burke to citi-
zenship. Some Of them have tele-
graphed Governor Eugene Foss Of
Massac husetts, asking him il he would
issue full pardon to Burke. BY 9TH
ers this procedure is ridiculed The
lawyers who ridicu'e the idea declare
the pardon would have to be dated
back to just prior to the time Burke
left the Charlestown prison and that
Governor Foss would have no right to
take such action as he was not gov
ernor of the state at the time. They
also argue that the pardon would have
to be signed by John L. Bates, who
vas governor of Massachusetts in
1903-1904 when Burke. under the
name of Benjamin Tripp, was released
from prison and that former Governor
Bates would have no legal right to sign
a pardon at this time as he no longer
is governor.
A more serious municipal question
has arisen over the confession Of
Burke. The city legal department
now is making an investigation to as
certain II the ordinances upon which
Burke voted as a member of councils
are invalidated by the fact that he was
not q citizen and had no right to vote.
During his partial term Burke had
voted on many ordinances. many Of
them vitality affecting city finances.

With this situation facing them the

Indianapolis, Aug. 2O--Judge Alton
B. Parker of New York delivered the
address in this city today notifying
Governor Thomas r. Marshall of his
nomination for vice president by the
democratic national convention. The
judge said in part:
'"The faithful sons of democracy,
proud of the history of their party,
covering half a century of federal ad-
ministration, welcomed at Baltimore
the opportunity to substitute practice
for teaching and performance for
promise Indeed, they seized it by
the nomination of Woodrow Wilson
and Thomas r. Marshall; seized 1t
with so firm grip that it cannot be
loosened, aye either by the host of re-
puhlicanism or by the deluded people
who have not yet discovered that
their leaders battles are waged for
himself, not for the Lord; that his
contrary pretence is with the hope
that he will secure the aid of the
Lords hosts for a third term, con-
trary to the unwritteu law of the
country and in disregard of his pledge
to the people to obey that law
The method by which the demo-
cratic convention seized the oppor-
tunity is 20 simple and straightfor-
ward that it at once captures the con-
fdence and arouses the enthusiasm.
1t was accomplished by the simple
nomination for president. and vice
president of men whose records as
and Indiana show that they know
how to create and apply the needed
governmental remedies and whose
lives have given abundant surety that
the pledges of their party and their
own promises to the. people will be
faithfully kept
Judge Parker took his text from
between the government and priv
Governor Wilson's notification speech
wherein is considered the partnership
ilege. His method Of treatment was
to declare:
First-The fact of partnership and
the resulting public injury.
Second-That the republican party
is solely responsible for the inaugura-
ton of the partnership relations, in
stancing the tariff and the combina-
tions to restrain trade and to prevent
competition as illustrations.
Third-That neither the republican
nor the progressive party could he
tSAsted to break up the partnership
Fourth--That the democratic party
could he relied upon to accomplish
the result
The consideration which the repub-
lican party received for the public be-
trayal was not. he said, confined to
large campaign contributions.
In addition, he said, the republi-
cans received political support of the
captains of industry which covered a
large sphere of influence. embracing
in part their ability to persuade their
vast armies of employees that their in
terests were involved in the success of
the party which favored their indus
tries

lief could come only from the election

cratic congress followed an Offering Of
reasons which, he said, negatived all
the possibility of relief from either
the republican or the progressive par
ty. OF the latter he said in part:
Its creator and nominee for pres
ident occupied that office for about
seven and a half years. But during
that time he could not be persuaded
to say single word in favor of lift
ing from the people the burden inn
posed upon them by the extortion Of
tariff rates. True, he admits in his
confession Of faith that certain in
terests have been Improperly favored
by over production and declares him.
self in favor of disrupting the old
crooked. log rolling method Of tariff
making and advocates tariff board.
1t is Impossible to rise from a careful
reading of his tariff discussion with
out being convinced he is standpat-
ter now as he was when he was pres
ident. Certainly only a very stupid
man would expect him to curb the
trusts. seven-eighths Of all the com
binations in existence when he went
out Of office were created while he
was president. Their creators had
confidence in him. surely. and it is but
just to say that 1t was not misplaced.

to bring suit to dissolve the Harves-

Marshall's Reply.
Governor Marshall attacked the re-

had fostered special privilege to the
point Of making men everywhere So
