State Senator Hennessy Gets
Letter From Sec. Tumulty
Regarding Primary Fight

BY SpScfot Correspondent.
TRENTON, Sept. 6:-That Presi-
dent Wilson is not going to take sides
before the primary in the warm
| Democratic contest for the United
States s~enatorship nomination in New
Jersey, was made plain by CORE
~spondence given u today by former
State Senator Charles O'Connor Hen
messy. who is a candidate for the
nomination. Mr.. Hennessy wrote to
the President as follows:
at would not trouble you now but
for the fact hat the usually well-in-
formed Washington correspondent Of
the New York Evening Post has pub
llished the intimation that Mr.. La
Monte, one of the other candidates
in the primaries. enjoys your particu-
lar favor. At any rate, this view is
receiving currency publicly in New
Jersey, naturally to the disadvantage
of myself and the other candidates.
II feel that except in some extreme
exigency that would seem to threaten
the welfare of progressive democracy,
you would not, If correctly informed,
permit your sanction or N semb-
lance of it, to be given to an inter-
ference with the democratic process
es of selection set up in New Jersey
under your leadership. For myself.
/ claim no right of course, despite
my unwavering loyalty and devotion
to the things for which you have
stood in public life, to ask that you
should favor my candidacy at this
time. And 1 make bold to assume
that neither Mr.. LaMonte nor any
other candidate, before the prima-
ries, will w the advantage of the
great and exclusive prestige that your
public sanction at this time would
~fxva hf-a Thsz 4honruofinn nov mar
haps, derive greater force from the
unquestioned fact that Mr.. LaMonte
was Selected to be q candidate mo-
by the state committee as reported
in the Post, but by a small confer
ence' of leaders in New Jersey,
among whom Mr.. James r. Nugent
seems to have been the controlling
factor. 1 do not believe Mr.. Tumulty
had anything to do with the confer
ence in question. May I therefore
presume to suggest that 1t would
greatly clarity and compose a situa-
ton which may easily lead to party
injury and unpleasant and distracting
controversies, If you could find ri
early occasion to make such public
statement, or authorize Mr.. Tumulty
to do so, as may make plain your
position respecting the New Jersey
primaries"
The Presidents reply through his
secretary, Mr.. Tumulty, is as folIows:
The White House,
Washington, Sept. 4, 1918.
My g Mr.. Hennessy:
Replying to your letter of August
22d, the President has asked me to
explain that 1t is his i~nvariable prac-
tice to refrain from expressing any
preference at all as between candi-
dates equally devoted in purpose to
the successful prosecution of the
measures now so necessary for the
nation and for the world.
Sincerely yours,

THE CENSUS GRAB

While the Census bill was under dis
cussion in the House, Representative
John G. Cooper, of Ohio, sought the
adoption of an amendment that would
have taken from the Democrats some
at least, of the enormous amount OF
patronage they will exercise when that
measure is put into effect. AS it now
reads all census supervisors are to be
appointed by the Secretary of Com
merce upon recommendation of the
Director of the Census. OF course
that means that practically all will be
Democrats. Mr.. Cooper would have
given the Congressman voice in max
ing recommendations for appointments
in their own districts. Had his views
prevailed Republican districts would
have stood chance of having their in
habitants. recorded by Republican SUI
pervisors But Mr.. Cooper's amend
ment met with disfavor from the par
ty in control, and was defeated
Partisanship is still rampant on both

The News-Budget is asked to send a
free copy of the paper each week to the
office of the Collector of Internal Reve-
nue. at Madison. this request being
made by the Treasury Department at
Washington in spite of the fact that
newspapers have. by recent conserva-
ton ruling of the war industries board
been forbidden to give copies of their
paper to anyone. The Treasury De
partment wants the papers primarily
in order to keep in touch with the adj
vertiSements and news items that
would lead to the securing of addi-
tiOnal taxes for the United States.
which is proper enough, but why the
government should want to panhandle
the newspapers is more than we can
understand. We presume the men who
read over these papers and check
items that may lead to the ferreting
out of additional sources of taxes draw
nice fat salaries for doing it, and if the
paper isn't worth it's subscription
price for the purposes the treasury de
partment wants it for it isn't worth
while to pay the salary of Someone to
read it.
Wonder if the treasury department
asks donations of pens, ink. paper or
the stock in trade of any other bust
ness houses for the offices of their
revenue collectors?
The newspapers are about the hard
est hit of any industry by war condi-
lions, as is evidenced by the great
number that are suspending publica-
tion. One thousand country newspa-
pers went out of business last year and
more than thousand will do the same
this year. The government, after pay
ing every other industry literally for
anything it wants, asks and gets hun
dreds of thousands of dollars worth of
newspaper space free, raises the post
age rates very materially on the news
papers and puts into effect the iniqui-
drive them out of business, and on top
of that the treasury department has
the monumental gall to ask the news
papers to violate a strict order of the
internal revenue office on ''Our free
mailing list" to use the language of
the request
The present administration Is GER
tainly handing it to the newspapers,
going and coming.

were an undisciplined lot and poor

it necessary to admit that the Yankees
