THOSE WHO FINANCED THE GOLDEN SPECIAL

n HE most interesting thing about the Golden Special expe-
" dion for the reclamation of the west relates to the per
s0nne of the ladies who financed the move.
"Womens Hughes Alliance" sounds innocent and harmless
enough until one examines the personnel of the organization
and discovers that represents the feminine side of the
lied and Morganzed wealth of Wall Street,
The treasurer of the WOmans Committee is Mrs Mary Har
rman Rumsey heires to the millions of the late Edward H.
Hartman railroad magnae and practical man OF the days
when Theodore Roosevelt received campaign funds from the
crooked business which political exgency later led him to
denounce.
With Mrs Rumsey on the finance committee are Mrs Rob-
e Bacon whose husband translated from the House of
Morgan to be Roosevets assistant secretary OF state and later
Mrs Bernard Rdder wife of ono of the propreto of the
New York Saats Zetng leader of the German propaganda
against President Wilson.
Mrs W. H. Crocker wife of the California mining and rail-
road multi-millonaire.
On the train fund committee are Mrs Daniel Guggenhem
of the Smeer Trust Mrs Cornelius Vanderbilt representing
inherited millions of railroad capital Mrs Harry Payne Whit
ney daughter of the late Cornelius Vanderbilt Miss Maude
Wetmore of the wealthy Rhode Island family OF that name
Mrs Alice Roosevelt LongwOrh daughter of Theodore RoOse
vet whose husband Nicholas Longworth inherited large
fortune.
The eerhead from republican campaign headquarters gives
only the of the train fund committee above but be-
sides them there additional committee in charge of this
of the Hughes campaign On this committee appear
dadition to the foregoing members, the following:
Mrs T. Sotesbusy whose husband is Philadelphia part
ner of J. P. Morgan Co.
Mrs H. Havemeyer wife of the Sugar Trust and Standard
Mrs Phoebe Hearst mother of William Randolph Hearst
of untold millions in American mines and Mexican
plantations.
Mrs O. H. P Belmont who has undertaken to raise half
million dollars to defeat President Wilson.
Mrs John Hays Hammond wife of the mult-mionare min
ing
Mrs Mary Dreier New York society leader with aspirations
to emancpae laborOf wealthy German family with strong
antipathy to President Wilson,
Mrs. William Einsen, wife of the millionaire of the
Raritan Wooen Mills
In other words the special train was sent forth by repre-
sentative eastern interested in the suffrage 1t
backed by of great wealth who desire the election
Mr. Hughes because he stands for privilege Those
dislike President Wilson because he has not taken orders from
New York mlonairedOm They dislike him because New
Yo financial and social upper crust has not meant much to
the president He has served the people of the whole country
The claim that the Golden Special working for suffrage
added much to the resentment manifested toward it, 1t
false claim and everybody knows it. 1t was for Hughes
and the motives that prompted the trip not credtabe

FULTON AND HUGHES

n T was fitting that ex-Sena-
tor Fulton should come to
Umatilla county as the
leading orator Of the Hughes
campaign. Mr.. Fulton is iden-
titled with the old guard con-
tingent with which the present
republican nominee is playing
hand in hand.
The behavior Of Justice
Hughes on his western trip was
no doubt highly pleasing to the
Portland attorney. Mr.. Fulton
undoubtedly was delighted
when Hughes snubbed Poin-
dexter in Washington and gave
the cold shoulder to Governor
johnson in California. Mr..
Fulton has long been aligned
with our standpatters who hold
the progressives in great scorn
excepting when their help is
desired at election time.
When Mr.. Fulton was Unit
ed States senator from Oregon,
by grace of a legislative selec-
ton. he cast the weight of his
position against progressivism
in this state. The people have
not forgotten the speech he
made at Corvallis in which he
opposed statement No. l. Mr..
Fulton was then one of the bri-
gade that loved to sneer at
Oregon as being the "fool of
the family" because of the di-
rect primary law and other re-
forms.
