MURPHY NAILS
CAMPAIGN CANARD
Says GrOesbeck's Statement Rel
alive to New Court Is With
out Iota of Truth

Judge Alfred ]. Murphy. candidate
for supreme court justice, made the
following reply, Monday morning, 10
statement from A. j. Groesbeck,
chairman of the Republican state cen
trail committee, accusing the Judge or
being influenced by craftsmanship In
supporting the bill to create a court
of domestic relations
The statement emanating from
Chairman Groesbeck, of the RepuD-
lican state central committee con-
corning the proposed court of domes-
tic relations is without an iota or

court the powers of "A circuit Judge.

pose OF that provision lis TO make sure
that the Judge of the court would
have power, under the constitution,
TO do the work he would be called
upon to do. Without such power the
law might be unconstitutional. Such
is the view of many lawyers. includ-

bill, copy of which has been in the
hands OF the circuit judges for some
weeks.
Il would not notice the low insinua-
ton but for the harm ii might do to
one OF the greatest reforms ever pro-
posed in the administration OF the
law"
Groesbeck insinuated in his state
ment that Judge Murphy was anxious
to have the Judge OF the new court
given the same standing as a circuit
Judge so that Gov. Ferris might have
fat appointment to give out:

Speaks to PrOgressives, Ad-
dresses Twentieth Century
Club and Occupies Pulpit

About 900 people, many OF them
women, heard former Senator Albert
J. Beveridge. OF Indiana, In the ar
mory, Saturday evening, In the closing
rally of the Progressives' campaign.
Mr. Beveridge attacked both the old
parties.
This is the spectacle" he said. in
the Republican party, LaFollette is
the most radical of radicals. Penrose
the most conservative OF reactionar-
les. LaFollette believes Penrose is
wrong Penrose believes LaFollette
is wrong. In the Democratic party we
see Bryan. the most liberal OF liber-
ais, declaring that Murphy and Sulli-
van are not fit to be American cti-
zens. Murphy and Sullivan call Bryan
everything but an anarchist. In that
condition. is either party sincere? Can
oil and water mix"
Mr. Beveridge discussed the Mac
Donald case, saying that no technical
ity would have been cited TO throw
ont his election had he been a Repub-
lican.
Miss Alice Carpenter, of New York
spoke Of the industrial planks In the
Progressive platform.
do you know" she asked. that our
country kills 10000 TO 10000 work
men a year? That In 1910. about $780,
600 industrial accidents occurred? We
have been so busy piling up fortunes
that We have made our money at the
expense of life. We are the only
Christian country that has no work
ingmen's insurance"
Saturday afternoon, Mr.. Beveridge
addressed the Twentieth Century club
on the subject of child labor. He con-
trastetd the United States with Ger
many. country which, he said pos
sesses few natural resources. but
where children are not forced to work
There Is less excuse for us than
for any other nation" he declared
I'VE are vast in numbers. Sbut far
vaster I'm resources. We have only
30 people TO the square mile Ger
many and France have 800 There
IL no economic reason why children
should work In our mines and sweat
shops,
There is no reason why 100000
women should compete with American
men except human greed. Men are
so intent on the pursuit or wealth that
they will gather great fortunes even
at the expense OF the ruin of women
and children.
"You are wasting time and money
when you work for state law. You
have got to keep he products OF child
labor out OF interstate commerce.
When the sweatshop men can't sell
their product because the market Ia
closed othem. they won't employ
children any more"
