FIGHT ON PRESIDENT
Friends Charge Foes ,Within
Party Are Out to Prevent
Wilson's denomination.

Friends Of President Wilson are
beginning to charge that he Is being
assailed by>opponents within the Demo-
cratic party with a view to preventing
his denomination. Talk of a propa-
ganda against the President is being
put out by Mr.. Wilson's supporters
The nature Of this propaganda is
summed up by saying 1t is of a sort
calculated to impress the Democratic
party with the belief that II renomi-
mated In 1916 President Wilson will
go down to certain defeat.
Concern is felt at the White House
over talk of this sort. 1t is because
the President and the men about him
feel that the President must speak out
in. his own behalf or run the risk of
losing the nomination that he has de-
cided to go to indianapolis on Jackson
Day and deliver an address and more
than this to undertake long series Of
speeches next spring after visiting the
San Francisco Exposition.
Furthermore. 1t Is because of this situ-
alton that the President does not want
an extra session Of Congress next spring
or, summer. He wants to be free to
travel and to make spe ecches which will
first. insure his denomination, and, Sec
ona. lay the foundation of his 1916 cam.
The friends Of Speaker Clark are look.
