TUMUL LTY IS SILENT
ON SMITH CHARGES
Secretary Declines to Com
ment on Excise Board Ap-
pointment.

Secretary to the President Tumulty
refused today to reply to statements
made before the Senate committee BY
the Rev. DR.. John MacMurray. pastor
OF the Union Methodist Church, that the
President and Mr.. Tumulty were pleased
that Gen. Robert q. Smith, chairman OF
the District Excise Board. has favored
the liquor traffic In the District
All that Mr.. Tumulty would say was
that he denied having backed or sup
ported General Smith for nomination TO
the board. although he admitted having
the Presldent. when the candidacy OF
General Smith was called to his atten-
tion.
Mr.. Tumulty Indicated that II the Sen
ate committee desires he is ready at any
eral Smith for the board. These recon-
meridationB include Endorsements from
the following: The Rev. G. Ernest
Smith, rector or st. Thomas Protestant
Episcopal Church. Of this city; Gilbert
New Jersey; John Griffin. vice chancel-
lor Of New Jersey; Mayor otto II. Witt
penn, OF Jersey City; r. s. Hudspeth,
national committeeman from New Jer-
sey; Frank Hague, director Of pI,,iSi public !;
Hughes, and Congressman John J.
Eagan, and former Congressman E. +.
Kinkead and Congressman j. A. Hamill.
Attorney Retained.
Attorney Leo Rover has been retained
by Sc. Aloysius' Church to refute the
ALLEGED statement by President Andrew
Wilson. of the Anti-Saloon League. that
closed to abet In an evasion Of excise
laws. Mr.. Rover will go to the Capitol
tomorrow.
The following statement was given
out today:
Father Donnelly has received q
stenographer's report of Mr.. Wilson'S
that report the only conclusion to be
drawn 10 that the entrance spoken OF
was closed to evade excise laws.
The statement reflects on the author.
tiles of ST. Aloysius' Church, because
no one else could authorize the closing
OF ans entrance
Secondly, Mr. Wilson has singled oui
a gate In the iron fence which surrounds
the church; a gate which has been
closed for more than twenty years. II
has not been opened in the memory OF
parishioners here. The lock Is rusty
and that goes to show how long the
gate has been locked
Not Open For Years.
Thirdly. Mr.. Wilson seems to be mis-
taken in saying that this gate was
opened recently. The sexton OF, the
church declares that the gate has not
been opened during the six years he has
held the position. VIII Mr.. Wilson
please, say who gave him the key?
mo one could possibly have imagined
that Mr.. Wilson was referring to an
entrance of that description. Why the
gate was closed in the first Instance
years ago is evident to any one. The
gate 10 useless. II opens on / street, to
which a wider and more convenient en-
trance ls already provided.
Finally WesaSe, glad that Mr.. VIII
son disavows any intention to reflect
on the clergy or congregation of st.
Aloysius' Church. but we maintain that
his statements before the Senate COM
mlttee cannot imply anything else. and
we trust that for the good OF his cause
he will make the correction publicly"

PRIMARY OBLIGATIONS
The Gainesville Sun INDUCES in the
following pertinent remarks about
primary obligations:
The Governorship

primary obligations:
The Governorship
The editor of the Sun has never
voted other than the democratic
ticket in all the "a years he has beer
of voting age, and so long as he par.
ticipates in a primary or other party
methods for nominating a candidate
he is going to abide by the action OF
the majority when the candidates re.
cefves such nomination in a fairly
conducted contest, free or fraud, an6
the party machinery declares him te
have been nominated. The Sun OPP
posed Mr.. Cats for the governorshiI
in the recent primary, but if he is de-
clared the democratic nominee and
the courts sustain the action of the
canvassing board, the Sun will sup
port his candidacy against that of re-
publican, socialist or independent, as
we deem it the duty of all democrats
to do.
The matter of his nomination has
now been taken to the courts, and if
all the contentious as presented to
Mr.. Knott are substantiated in regard
to Irregularities in many counties Mr..
Knott will be the nominee instead of
Mr.. Cats, but be that as it may, the
Sun will be found supporting the
nominee, be he Cats or Knott.
In this connection, however. we
cannot refrain from comparisons. We
know of men right here in Gainesville
who vowed that they would not sup
port President Wilson were he nom
mated and who now openly say they
will vote the republican ticket for
president; yet these same men were
permitted to vote in the democratic
primary and cram down the throats
of loyal democrats such a man as
Cats for governor. 1t would be trea-
son, in their opinion, for one who
voted in the primary to vote against
Cats, but it is patriotism for them
to vote against Wilson for president
It was a mistake to ever let these n.y.
birds participate in the democratic
primary, and the sooner the primary
law is so amended as to exclude them
the better it will be for the party and
the state. The second choice feature
Of the primary law is failure, and
before another election rolls around
il is hoped that we will revert to the
double primary, for only in this way
can the party be safe from interlop-
ers whose only interest in the party
is the Office they seek. Had the dou-
bic primary been in vogue this year
Cats would not possibly have been
imposed on the party as the nominee,
for fly thousand democrats have said
they do not want him for governor as
against thirty thousand who express
ed their choice for him.

CITIZENS
VISIT OLD HOME

Mr.. and Mrs. John Prentice Of Sc
attic, Washington, are guests of Mrs.
Prentice's mother, Mrs. Jacob Reb-
holz, of Portage. The Prentice family
is we'll known in the vicinity Of Port
age and Caledonia, they having con-
Quoted the mill near Durward's glen
for many years. The father, Alexan-
der Prentice, was connected with sew
eral lucky financial enterprises, and
the town of Prentice, in Price county,
in the northern part of the state, was
built through his efforts, and was
named for him. About twenty years
ago the family found their way to the
far west and located at Seattle, when
the city was young. The old saying
that money begets money was true
in their case, and the various branch
es of the family which now reside
there are rated among the wealthiest
and most influential citizens.
Mr.. and Mrs. Prentice will remain
several weeks, visiting other relatives
besides Mrs. Rebholtz, who has reach
ed the advanced age of eighty-six
years. They will also visit Merri-
mack and Baraboo before returning.

BURGLARS AT WORK
IN NEARBY CITY

Second story men broke into the
Carroll & Klug store at Portage early
Friday morning and stole little more
than SO in cash, which was left in the
money drawer for change for the
early morning trade. The burglars
made their way to the roof Of the
building by climbing a telephone
pole, located in the alley in the rear.
Once on the roof they cut the screen
over the skylight and obtained adj
mittance to the store.
To all appearances, money was
their only quest as nothing else is
missed from the store, but at this
time it is impossible to state whether
money alone was taken. The burg
lars made their escape the same way

Dickie represented this district in the
assembly at Madison at the last ses-
sion and is a candidate for nomination
on the Republican ticket. Mr. Dickie's
home is in North Freedom and he
says that the outlook for his re-elec-
tion is bright.
f. M. Seamans candidate for regis
ter Of deeds, who resides in Ironton,
also visited Baraboo today for the pur-
pose of filing his nomination papers.
Mr. Seaman's strong argument for
nomination is his pledge that if elect
ed he will not become a candidate for
a third term or Immediately seek an
other county office. This statement
will undoubtedly secure many votes
for Mr.. Seamans, who is not only a
successful farmer, but student and
man of business as well. His motto
