TUMULTY DENIES He
WILL GUST INCOMES
Calls Report That He Is to Be-
come Democratic Chairman
Gossip"

Declaring it to be the gossip OF per-
sons trying to create trouble. and dis
cord" in the Democratic party. Joseph
p. Tumulty. secretary to the President
today denied the report that he was
to succeed William F. McComhs as
chairman Of the Democratic Nataonal
Committee. Mr.. Tumnlty said: .
THE story appearing in the mcfnlng
papers of Mr.. McCornbs' resignation
and my selection to succeed htn as
chairman of the National Democratfc
Committee Is made orE Of whole cioth
and is the gossip of peEsons whose pur-
pose Ia to make trouble and create
discord within the ranks of the party.
Despite the secretarys denial OF any
knowledge of the reports that Mr.. Nc
Combs was about to resign, the rumor
has been current in Democratic politi-
cal circles for some time. It was re-
vived Friday when Homer 5. Cum
mings, of Connecticut, vice chairman
OF the national committee, who has
been talked of as q possible successor
to Mr.. McCombs, had long talk with
President Wilson on national AFFAIRS
AS far as Mr.. Tumulty personally Is
concerned, it Is known from the tes-
timony of his closest friends that he
would not under any circumstances ac-
cept the position of national dhairrhan.
These friends further declare that he
has consistently frowned on reports
that Mr. McCombs was to get ovt. At
the same time, there is no DOUBT that
the latter Is seriously considet ng the
move, and that such action on mis- part
! would not displease certain elements
of the party.
Mr. McComps' poor health has made
it impossible for him 40 tab a very
active part In directing the affairs of
the national Democracy since the cleo
ton OF Mr.. Wilson. His critics feel
! that 1t is essential ftr the national
chairman between elections to keep in
| closest possible touch with politics i'll
| all sections of the country. 80 as to be
able to advise with the Administration
! on these matters
! according to hts critics. has not been
| altogether in sympathy with other close
advisers OF the President. including Sec
retary Bryan.
that the national chairman was an ac-
tive supporter Of Roger Sullvan's Sem
/ atorial boom in Illinois. despite the
oper opposition of Mr.. Bryan. who re'-
CARDS the Illinois boss as Representatives
of al, that is reactionarv in the party.
! In New York State politics, Mr. NC
4 Combs has taken a course diametriCally y
| opposed to that of Secretary Of the
, Treasury McAdoo, the President 8 SON
| in-law. While Mr.. McCombs' ent,rts
! have been in the direo ton of healing
the breach between the Administrst tion
and Tammany Hall Secretary M'iAdoo

Il have already told you, but I
haven't told you the whole story just

they'd have grain enough an plenty

Il reckon you boys think Pm takin'
a long time to tell you the story, but

the school like it did mine. Well, the
day ! put the hogs in on the clover a
nice lookin' youngster about IS years
old come over to hire to me an feed
the hogs. | talked with him an he
was bright all right, but he never had
fed hogs. He had worked on farm
an he had pretty good education
an | wanted to hire him, but you see

corn to pigs that stood me five hun
dred dollars in hard money"
81 don't blame you," remarked one
of the men, "but how did that make
you decide you wanted to be trustee? p
I'm comm to that now. After the
young man had left an I'd finished

during the past few days, the
same occasioned by the exercise
of the pardoning power by retir-
ing Governor James B, McCreary
in extending executive clemency
to Berry Burton, who in July,
1912, was convicted and sentenc-
ed to life Imprisonment for the
murder of Samuel P'Simer, of
Magoffin county.
Newspapers containing an ac-
count of the pardon reached Sal
yersville on the night Of the TIN,
and on the morning of the 9th an
effigy of Governor McCreary was
seen dangling from a telephone
pole in the public square, with a
placard containing the following
words, written in bold letters:

Tt will no remembered that on
the night of December "a, 1911,
between II and IL o'clock, old
man P'Simer, who was about %
years of age and a peaceful and
model citizen, was aroused from
his sleep by defendant and others
shooting on a public highway
near his home; leaving his led,

he went out to ascertain the
cause of the shooting, and was

assassination on the following
morning, and as County Attor-
ney, worked for weeks upon
the case in conjunction with rel

was transferred to Floyd county
on a change of venue granted
the defendant, and the trial there
resulted in his conviction, with
ten jurors holding out for the
death penalty. This verdict and
judgment was upheld by the
Court of Appeals to which the
case was carried.
