THAT is interesting question OF veracty that
has arisen between J. Frank Mccoy and Df.
Willard Springer, rival candidates for the Democratic

that he has made such a promise

a friend of Mccoy says Daniel r. DuRoss. Demo-
ratio city chairman, practically admitted to him that
DR. Springer told Of the Murphy PROMISE and that
oultoss urged that it should not be the pri-
nary campaign for fear of the effect it might have IN
he city campaign.
Another friend Of Mccoy says he had talk with
urphy and that Murphy admitted to him that he and
DR. Springer had discussed the Street and sewer De-
artment appointment DuRoss and Murphy are both

President Wilson takes the position that the bill does
not violate the treaty between the United States and
Japan. doubt is expressed that Governor johnson viii

whether they be maintained by working and farm

pursuits The rider is looked upon desperate bid
