the Colonel.
As the Colonel was entering his auto
mobile to be driven 10 New York this
morning there was handed TO him the
following telegram. sent from Spring

Duel. jr.:
"Am a,touudcd at Nr. Whitman s
statement. which have Just read in
the morning newspapers. Regret cN-
cecdingly that private matters dctaln
me to-day in Springfield, for the hypoc.
risy of the man i'm MS now changed
and newly announced candidacy for the
Governership should be exposed at
once. The hidden truth. which he at
tennis TO cover over IN this statement,
ought. in very fairness TO the people
Of the state, to be brought to their at
tention.
AT the time he urged nc TO seek
your support for him he wrote me a
letter declaring his party sympathy
with a fusion fght'-'to rid the state
of the kind OF party control which. IN
his opinion. was responsible for these
corrupt conditions He declares further
that tho men and policies responsible
for them were not confined 10 any ono
party
and says he is "a candidate for the
cubcrnatorial nomination in the Re
publican primaries only despite his
earlier assertion and the fact that as
recently rs two weeks ago he said that
If 1000 Progrcssivcs wanted him. he
would be their candidate. too.
Nov he says as we'll. i have sup
ported at tho election every Republican
nominee for President and Governor
since have been q voter.
"The fact was that during the time
he was urging me to gain your support
for him. telling me you were his idol.
And that he had voted for you in 1912
is apparently Of no Importance now. All
that he needed then was the promise
OF your support. and the finest men OF
all parties, whether enrolled party
members or not, to make up 4 fine flu
sion ticket and he would make these
men famous. as he said to me ono
night over the telephone, IN April.
L., Is hat Ip ia
voted for YOU for the Pres idcncy. while
IN August he remembers that he hasn't.
Either he lied then and tells the truth
now. or he told the truth then and lies
nov. /, for my part, wouldn't believe
him under oath.
Moro Censurc for Whitman.
"Ilc makes another brave statement
when he says: IT Is known fact that
since the Democratic party came into
power in this state there has been OK
travagance and corruption Yet in his
letter 10 me of February 10, he says:
This is OF confined 10 any one party
AS for his partly uncovered graft
trails and the assertion that, If elected
Governor. the corruption will be
stopped nonsense. 10. He has been
prowling around all winter after these
crafters. and for some miraculous
reason he hasn't overtaken one OF them
yet. certainly in his own party, al
though he writes me in his letter of
February 10 that these conditions are
not localized and the corruption not
confined 10 any ono party
"Jn regard to Becker, he asked me
over and over again what effect it
would have on things If Becker wasn't
convicted At the second trial. That
worried him = great deal. d he said
the average voter was tickle.
