BURTON and FORAKER

Ohio Political Situation Productive of
Acrid Controversy Between Candi-
date and Retiring Statesman.
TOLLS QUESTION DRAGGED In

A remarkable situation has developed
in the Republican politics Of Ohio. The
withdrawal of Senator Theodore E. Bur
ton from the race for reelection has
apparently left former Senator ]. B.
Foraker the most prominent, il not the
leading candidate for the Republican
nomination. Some Of Senator Foraker's s
friends declared that Senator Burton
withdrew because he felt that he could
not successfully compete with Mr.. For
aker for the nomination for, Senator
Senator Foraker was quoted as declar-
ing that there was nothing left for
Senator Burton to do after lining up
with the Democratic President on the
tolls question.
In speeches in Ohio. Senator Foraker
has announced himself as opposed to re-
peal. and has said he would make that
an issue. Senator Burton yesterday wired
Mr. Foraker inquiring whether he had
been correctly quoted. Apparently, he
received an affirmative reply. for last
night he gave out an interview, in which
he said:
regret at Senator Foraker has
seen fit to make a somewhat peppery
statement about my withdrawal He
saws that he himself would withdraw if
he were with Democratic President on
so vital a question as the canal tolls
repeal. The fact is that ! advocated
entire equality in charges long before
President Wilson ever said anything
about it.
II regret also that Senator Foraker's s
manager gave out a statement that my
withdrawal was due to fear that Sena-
tor Foraker would defeat me. This is
entirely incorrect. / told my friends l
would be glad to have Senator Foraker
as an opponent, because it would empha-
size the very wide difference in our views.
".Seither fear of defeat nor my stand
on the canal tolls question influenced my
action. The fundamental reason was a
feeling that some one less identified
with party dissensions might have a bet
ter chance. 1t was desirable that some
one make a sacrifice of himself, and 1
felt willing to make il. 1 am inclined to
believe that the statements of Senator
Foraker and his m lager were made
without due reflection"
