TAMMANY VOWS
LOYALTY TO CAUSE
OF PRES. WILSON
Every Democratic District
Leader in New York Goes to
Shadow Lawn to Pay Re-
SpeCtS to Chief
BY RALPH SMITH.

NEW YORK, oct. 29.-Many special
trains plying between New York and
Shadow Lawn brought a spirit of unus-
ual optimism TO Democratic headquar-
tiers today. In fact, SO great was the
press of Tammany men, women and chill
dren who made the pilgrimage to the
Wilsonian Mecca that the railroad Off
Gals had to add trains to the many spe-
cials originally allotted.
This was the best evidence i'm the
campaign as to the attitude of Tam
many, and it was a very cheering one
to headquarters officials. Without eX-
ception. it was said. every Democratic
district leader in New York went to
pay his respects and swear loyalty to the
president, a representation that Tam
many has never made before even at
national convention. So far as New
York is concerned, the great question
has been:
What will Tammany do?" and il was
felt that the presidents hope of forty
five electoral votes depend upon the an
swer toe that question.
From the lower and upper east side
they came and from the lower west
side. From Harlem and the Bronx, from
Greenwich Village, and from Broadway,
Sixth avenue, Seventh avenue, Eighth
avenue, and Avenue A. Fifth avenue
and Central Park went their fashionable
ways as usual. There were just as many
who took tea at the Plaza as on any
other day and the stream of automobiles
passing the Waldorf was nowise abated.
Workers at the Republican headquar-
ters on Fifth avenue gazed down hap
PLY and congenially upon a fashionable
throng and watched the flashing motors
whiZzing through the sunlight.
But on the Bowery and by the Battery
and amid the crooked little streets Of
lower town it was different. Folks were
missing who usually were to be seen at
their shop doors. Fourteenth street folk
paused to ask one another where Hattie
and Jake and Pat and Tony were today
AT Shadow Lawn to see the guy that
kept us out of war; was the answer.
There is ample proof of Republican
detection up state, while there is only
rumor of it in Greater New York There
fore the greatest question at headquar-
tiers has been the attitude of Tammany
and therefore what may seem outside
New York the small matter of a cheap
excursion appeared as important to
Vance Mccormick as the crusades TO
the medieval church.

CLAIM FOR FARM BANK
Rome and Augusta Present
Their Claims Board Goes
to Birmingham
Especial Dispatch to The Journal

Especial Dispatch to The JournalD
MACON. Ga, Oct 2S.-The decision
Of the federal farm loan board on the To-
cation of a federal farm loan bank in the
southern district is not expected before
early next year. Permission was grant
ed for the Georgia cities to file documen-
tary evidence as late as December. The
banks are expected to open February l, .
The hearing in Macon ended yesterday
afternoon, and, accompanied by a large
committee from Birmingham. George w.
Norris and Captain w. S. A. Smith,
members of the board. left for Birming-
ham, where a hearing is being held to-
day.
After witnesses and speakers had
urged that the bank for the southeastern
district be located in Macon, Rome and
Augusta had their innings. Speaking
for the former, Seaborn Wright, of
Rome, former member Of the legislature
from Floyd county. referred frequently
10 my little agricultural city of Rome, 3"
and contended that more farmers in that
section will take advantage of the OPP
pOrtunities offered by the law than in
any other part OF the proposed district,
which he urged should include Tennes-
see.
Don't group the south off to itself"
he said. I'VE have lived too much to
ourselves and need to come in contact
with our neighbors of the north. Don't
be deceived, this will always be a cotton
country. Diversification may be prac-
.iced TO some extent. but cotton Will be
IaOre generally planted. the boil weevil
Notwithstanding"
He referred to the farmers of north
Georgia as small farmers and those of
south Georgia as foreign farmers, who
&c not live on their farms and are not
entitled to borrow under the farm loan
bank law"
James NJ. Hull, Jr.. of Augusta, made
the argument for that city, calling il IAN
interstate city" He proposed a district
composed OF North and South Carolina,
Florida and Georgia. and contended that
Augusta is the natural center of agricul-
tural development for the district.
while the south appears to be pros
Ferrous because of 20-cent cotton" he
said ''it is not real prosperity. The
middle man has no cotton to sell, clerks
ard others in similar positions receive
the same wages while prices of neces-
sar.es continue TO soar"
He gave the opinion that raising of
more fOodstuffs will help to remedy con-
dinons.
Il hope you gentlemen do not think
that if these banks are not located in
your cities that they will not serve the
farmers around them" said Mr.. Norris.
Each of these banks must serve on an
average of four states and in some in
stances six or eight. If they are to
se've only the immediate section around
the cities in which they are located, the
system is a foredoomed failure"
Alex w. Smith, of Atlanta, made n
s rong argument why one of the banks
should be located i'm Macon, and with

the logical and geographical center"

HUGHES ELECTOR To
CAST HIS VOTE FOR
PRESIDENT WILSON
Prominent West Virginia Coal
Operator Demands That His
Name Be Taken From the

CHARLESTON. ". Va. Oct 2s-J.

hest known men in the state. His ac-
tion has caused tremendous sensation
throughout the state
His letter follows:
Il have been a great admirer OF Judge
Hughes since the insurance investiga-
ton in New York 7 was for him orig
inaIIy when Mr.. Taft was nominated

cagO during the Republican convention
IN June: 1 have been a student of pub
lie questions since that time; have read
Mr.. Hughes public addresses with a
great deal OF anxiety. I do not find in
them any good reason why We should
change administrations at Washington
NJ this critical period
L DO not find in Mr.. Hughes ad-
dresses that candor and directness Of
assertions which ! had expected OF him.
When questions are put to him on mat
tiers vital to the United States he quail
lies his replies with evasions and fails
TO meet the issues sQuarely. as a pow
erful lawyer usually does when he IS
convinced that he Is on the wrong side
Of the case in court and that his client
IS not entitled to a favorable verdict,
all of which is disappointing TO me-
And when summing up the entire
situation 1 am convinced that a vote
for Judge Hughes would, in fact. be as
Sistfng TO turn over the United States
and the destinies OF these lOO,0OO,OOO
people to the corrupt Old Guard, dom
mated. controlled absolutely by such

which may be procured by any merchant

that he bring Hughes to a hart on soma
issues the Republican candidate has
raised as reasons for Wilson's defeat
They argued that the president has
handled Hughes altogether too gently.
and pleaded that he take at least one
good whack through some OF the open
ings made by the G. o. p. candidate.
This thing Of keeping the campaign on
a high plane was all right, Of course.
they said, but certainly the president
ought to be free to nail his opponent di-
rectly on some of the big issues Of the

Franklin D. Roosevelt Scores
Unfair Attacks on PreSi-
dent and His Advisers

PROVIDENCE, r. y, oct. 2S-Mis-
quotations, neutrality-suspicious. and lies
about the Democratic administration
were charged against Republicans and
opposition newspapers by Franklin
d. Roosevelt, assistant secretary of the
navy. in his speech here last night.
"As to the outcome of the election,
feel there is no question" Mr.. Roose-
Welt told his audience. There would
be no need of my speaking here tonight
or of anyone else speaking were it
not necessary to respond to the unfair
attacks which have been made on the
President and all his advisers.
Interpretations and misrepresenta-
tions-yea lies-have been used by the
Presidents opponents. [ say lies, be-
cause that is a good Roosevelt word
to use"
Mr.. Roosevelt cited some of his eX-
periences in the navy department in
proof Of his statements. He paid par
ticular attention to the recent state
ment of Mr.. Hughes that less attention
should be paid to punctuation and more
to target practice in that branch of the
service.
II wish Mr.. Hughes could take
trip aboard a war vessel before the
end of the campaign" said Mr.. ROose-
Welt st wish he knew the truth about
the state of the navy as we found it in
1918. 1 wish he could see the improve
ments that have been made before he
repeats his demand for target practice.
Does Mr.. Hughes know, | wonder,
that the navy in 1913 had reached its
lowest efficiency in target practice
since 1898? Does he know that now the
gunners of the navy are shooting at
ranges of twelve to sixteen miles in
stead of six to eight miles, and making
as many hits. i'm proportion, as they
ever made in the old days?"

Keep Up Populist
Farce of Ticket
Through Officers


Lincoln, Oct. Especial. 1.-The
last sad remains of the peoples indie
pendent party met again yesterday at
the office of the secretary of state
and went through the farce of pulmo-
toring enough life into the corpse to
nominate few democratic candidates
for office, and then crawled into its
hole. Ah. .r
Present we're Frank Eager, chair
man of the party" Gene Walrath,
who officates as secretary whenever a
little life is needed in order to help
out the democrats; Mr.. Tibbles and
DR.. Cummins. The chairman and Sec
rotary claimed to have been empow-
cred to act as proxy for two others,
and then the party" proceeded to
nominate Keith Neville for governor,
Edgar Howard for lieutenant COVER
nor and Sophus F. Neble OF Omaha
and w. M. Morning of Lincoln for
presidential electors, all democratic
nominees, thus continuing the farce
comedy of passing years. ..
According to Lieutenant Governor
Pearson, who was elected as popu-
list two years ago and has since, affili-
ated with the peoples independent
party, no convention was held this
year, and no committees selected. 1t
is also we'll known that none, if any,
of the counties of the state held coun-
ty conventions for the purpose OF
sending delegates to state conven-
ton, which is required where there is
party state organization.
Counting proxies, there were just
half a dozen votes in the committee
meeting yesterday. =t~
