INDIGNANT OVER

Declares That He Wants the
Votes Of No Disloyal
Americans-Terse Reply
Sent to Telegram.

Long Branch. N. j., Sept. 30.-Presi-
dent Wilson made it plain last night
that he wants no "disloyal' American
to vote for him. He expressed indig-
nation over a telegram from jeremiah
A. O'Leary of New York. president of
the American Truth association, ac-
saying he had failed to obtain compli-
anee with American rights.
The president sent O'Leary a short
telegram which officials indicated
Wilson had desired to put in stronger
language. His message follows:
Your telegram received. I would
feel deeply mortified to have you or
anybody like you vote for me. Since
you have access to many disloyal
Americans and I have not, 1 will ask
you to convey this message to Them
OLeary's telegram, given out by the
president, follows:
Again we greet you with popular
disapproval of your pro- British poll
cies. Last year from the Twenty
third New York congressional district
and now from your own state and from
the voters Of your party, Senator Mar
tine won because the voters of New
Jersey do not want any trucking to
the British empire, nor do they ap-
prove of dictatorship over congress.
Your foreign policies, your failure
to secure compliance with all Ameri-
can rights, your leniency with the
British empire. your approval of war
loans. the ammunition traffic, are is
sues in this campaign. Do you know
that William S. Bennett, O Republican
congressman. ran In the Democratic
primaries in the Twenty-t third New
York congressional district and polled
36 per cent of the total Democratic
vote against his regular Democratic
opponent? Anglo maniacs and British
interests may control newspapers. but
they don't control votes. The people
may be readers. but they are not fol-
lowers of the newspapers.
When, sir, will you respond to
these evidences of popular disapproval
Of your policies by action7 The Mar
tine election and Bennett vote prove
you have lost support amongst Demo-
Gratis.
Every vote for MARITIME was a vote
against you. as was every Democratic
vote that went for Mr.. Bennett in the
