SENATORS FLAYED
FOR TREASON VOTE
Democratic Legislator Ex-
presses Self About Constitu-
tional Convention Killing.


TRENTON. N j., March 2S.-With
the South Jersey newspapers gener-
ally muzzled or ignorantly edited the
Senators from that section feel that
they will not be called to account for
any act of treason in legislation that
does not directly and appreciably hurt
the voters pocketbook In their coun-
ties, Senator Davis, of Salem, selected
by President Wilson as spokesman for
the carrying out of the Democratic
platform pledges, may traitorously
betray the most important and posi-
tive pledge in the platform, as he did.
and go back to Salem to tell his con-
stituents how faithfully he had dis
charged his legislative duties, fulfilled
his oath and stood by the. Democratic
platform.
Six Democratic Senators partici-
pated in the treason of defeating the
mandate of the party platform for a
convention of the representatives of
the people for the revision of the
Constitution. 1t is well to name these
Senators right here. They were Sen
ators J. Warren Davis, Of Salem;
George c. Low, of Ocean: Samuel T.
Munson, of Sussex; John W. Slocum,
of Monmouth; George F. Martens, of
Hunterdon, and Harry c. Wheaton,
of Cape May One Democratic Sem
ator, William e. Ramsay, Of Middle
sex, was present and did not vote,
and 1t was assumed that if his vote
had been needed to kill the bill it
would have been recorded Thomas
Barker, of Warren. was absent, sick,
and therefore did not vnte.
Not a single Democratic Senator
had any communication with his con-
stituents on the subject of the bill.
but there were said to be privately
conveyed communications from other
and more authoritative quarters. The
Pennsylvania Railroad lobby took a
great interest in the question from
the outset and inspired the Trenton
newspapers to attack the convention
bill with their clumsy arguments. An
old Democratic member of the Legis-
lature who was in Trenton on visit
when the Senate killed the convention
bill said to The Star correspondent:
IT wonder how long the humbug of
these small county Senators who
don't own themselves Is going to be
kept up? | saw it when ] was in the
Legislature and 1t made me ashamed
of the manhood in the Senate. I saw
Senators mere pawns for big inter-
ests, without will or conscience of
their own. And their hypocrisy now
in protesting fidelity to promise the
Democratic party never made in its
platform, while they murder the full
filment of real pledge in the plat
form, is of piece with the perform
ances'of the small county, and espe-
cially the South Jersey, Senators in
past legislation.
but what surprises me is the hand

was just this experience in an equity

that precedent, formula and traditions

GARRISON OF NEW JERSEY LIVE
WIRE OF THE ADMINISTRATION
War Secretary Already Known
for His Facility in Turning
Things Upside Down.
BY J. CAMPBELL CORY
Especial oartoonist of the Evening star.

| Especial oartoOnist of the Evening star)
The Garrison finish of track ira
dition has nothing on the Garrison
start as exhibited by President VIII
sons new secretary of war. This
| cabinet officer spent just about the
| time of a taxicab voyage from the
| Capitol to the war department be-
| tween taking his oath of office and
getting down on the Job. The for
malities attendant upon his induction
into his duties consisted of hanging
his overeoat and hat on peg and
sitting down behind the big ma
hogany desk reserved for the boss
of the army.
A Georgia nanny. reversing the
browning corncakes on a steaming
griddle could show no greater facility
in turning things upside down than
did Garrison when he began to tackle
the problem which his new work
presented.
Garrison has a startling directness
of manner. He doesn't beat around
the conversati onal bush, he jumps
over il. Take the case of Major
General Leonard Wood. for some
time chief of staff. It's a wide-open
secret that. many of Mr.. Garrison's
official advisers of the department
hold no kindly feeling toward the
man who rose from army surgeon
to the highest military rank within
fifteen years over the heads of men
years his senior in age and service.
Here is n conversation which took
place in the presence of least a half
dozen persons in the seeretary's Of
flee the other day:
Have any congressman spoken to
you against General Wood since the
fourth of March, Mr.. Secretary in
CURED a searcher after truth, and
then continued: Can you answer
that?n
Secretary Garrison shot a duizzical
glance at the questioner news
paper correspondent, and replied,
with a somewhat disconcerting avoid
ance of evasion
Yes, ! can answer. but | won't
Garrison has nearly couple of
years to travel before he reaches the
half-century mark. His iron-gray
hair is an accident and not symp-
tom of advancing years. His brusque-
ness is more a mannerism than an
evidence of lack of sympathy. He
is a six-cylinder worker and already
has earned among those who have
come in contact with him the title
of the live wire of the administra-
ton
The secretary enjoys the distinc-
ton of having been born in the State
from which he was appointed to the
cabinet. Camden, N, J., was his birth
place. and his activities up to the
time he was offered this job had
taken him no farther than Jersey
City, where he sat as vice-chancellor.

President Wilson takes in this ques-
ton. Mr.. Wilson expressed his in
vincible purpose to see all the plat
form pledges carried out. and he has
made a great ado about the grand
jury. but has had cold feet on the
convention question Why at one
time he avowed his readiness to ac-
cept a bill with the vital principle
cut out He would take a convention
controlled by one-fifth of the voters
of the State.
''I believe. though, that as in other
important matters, Mr.. Wilson never
looked into the question of legislative
representation in New Jersey. l
can't believe that he favors the prin-
ciple of government by small
class and that, too, not a representa-
tive one. If Mr.. Wilson had stood for

near his home yesterday, and had it
