CLAIM STORY THAT FORCED
PRIEST TO MARRY GIRL FALSE
Pittsburgh, Pa, March 24-The
Rev. Miles Michael Sweeney, pastor
of the Roman Catholic church at Sc
wickley, Pa. and Miss Mary Chris
tina Moran, of this city, were married
in WelIsburg, w. Va, by Protestant
clergyman, on January %. The cere-
money was performed while three
brothers of the bride surrounded the
principals. each with his right hand
closed over a revolver. concealed in
his overcoat pocket, The forced mar
rage was the. result of false allega-
lions made to the three brothers by
Miss Elizabeth. Moran, a sister OF
Mary Moran, and has not been con-
summated.
With this statement, made in Aft
davit form on the advice of A. V. D.
Waterson, her attorney, Mary Moran
today gave her explanation of an af-
fair that has caused Father Sweeney
to be restrained by church authorities
from occupying his pulpit and stirred

iel ]. Moran of Hammond, Ind, wrote
an open letter to the Pittsburgh
newspapers in which he charged that
his sister, Mary, better known as
Tena Moran, was married to Father
Sweeney by the Rev. Francis Biddle,
pastor of the Christian church at
Wellsberg, w. Va. He was led to
make news of the marriage public, he
said, because Father Sweeney had
continued to fill his church office.
Correspondence from the Rev. Biddle
and from K. c. Brashear, clerk Of the
marriage license court at Wellsburg,
supported the brothers statement.
According to the affidavit, Miss
Moran's alleged improper relations
with the priest existed only in the
mind of Elizabeth Moran, who circu-
lated false stories because her sister,
Tena. refused to lend her her dresses
and hats to wear to social gatherings.
Elizabeth recently wrote the three
brothers, Daniel, Frank and Emmett,
all in Hammond, Ind, and told them
that Tena and the priest were often
together and that their sister was re-
ceiving handsome gowns, hats and
other apparel from him. She also told
the mthat Tena's room was hung
with improper pictures.

King Micros consents to the mar riage of his daughter height P to a dash cavalier (height feet three.) And all would have been hap py had not King Cigas-the-Tall fallen in love with the tiny princess and de- termined to have her at any cost. The giant king steals her away and laughs at the Lilliputians, little thinking them an enemy worthy his fear.

A RANK failure
ENID EVENTS DOES NOT THINK
MUCH OF STATEMENT Is
SUED BN GONLRNOR.
ONLY A SPECI0US PLEA
Entirely IHils t0 Comprehend tho
Viewpoint OF the People or
Oklahoma.

ENID Okla, Jan. CspcclalD-
Asserting that Governor Cruor utter
ly fails 10 comprehend the viewpoint
Of ONlohoma's peopIl tho Enid
Events discusses the governors sun
day statement as follows.
Like the Arkausaw mulctecr Cow
oruor Crucc seed his duty IN no
douo it' His open letter was indeed
q spcciuus plea for Justification and
tolerance, designed TO bolster up tho
tottoriug and dlsiutvgrating fortunes
of a dlscredltcd political machine,
caught with the goods and franu-
calB endcavoring to hide the shells,
but II deceived but few, although II
lent great comfort to the Old ma-
chine and converted the governor into
q senatorial possibility. Might as well
try TO dam up Niagara with mildewed
congrcAslonal records as to attempt
Go uppcaso the aroused citizenship OF
this state with ingenious platltudes.
1T was not to be expected that tho
governor would plead guilty to ma
ohina manipulation OF state affairs.
To do so would have been 10 have
condemned himself the second gov
ernor Of the commonwealth-and
selfish male things don't generally DO
that sort OF business especially IN
politics and more especially when
they are thinking OF announcing
candidacy for the United States sem
ute and bidding for the machine sup
port
III tho governor could forget that
$4,000 note, could see white light
and have the scales of error and par
tisan prejudice fall from his eyes,
what different story he would tell
Instead Of being Pharisee Of Phari-
sees, the partisan OF partlsans, the
machinist of machinists, he would be-
como the really truly aposle Of tho
people and prove of great value IN
combating the common enemy and
snatching Oklahoma from tho
clutches Of conscienceless freebootcrs.
Tho governor makes n specious
plea for his side, but he Ignores the
great essential facts in business or
ganization and MANAGEMENT which
apTcal TO the bulk Of the people.
Perhaps he Is ignorant Of the facts,
with little or no idea of orderly busl-
ness arrangements. At all events no
utterly fails TO comprehend the vital
public viewpoint. Like the old-time
Bourbons he hears the rumble Of
fomentlng revolution from afar and
IS utterly astounded that there should
be complaint from any source. All
goes 80 well with himself how can
others be dissatisfied? The caunalie
IL indeed hard TO please and It's de-
mands entirely iueomprcheus.bi,.
"The SNUG assurance and ultra self
satisfaction expressed by the COVER
nor is bat another evidence that noth-
Ing but genuine political upheaval
will do any good In Oklahoma.
Ills plea for justification and toll
croncc IS so specious, 50 Juvenile, so
utterly contradictory Of actual con-
diuons In this state as 10 occasion
surprise tnat even chastened and
submissive Cruca could be induced
to anix his signature and give it pub
ncly."
