REPUBLICANS PROTEST
COURSE OF NOMINATIONS
Confirm New Ensigns, But Here
after Action Must Come from
White House.

Vigorous objection to the method of
sending to the Senate nominations of
1854 graduates of the Naval Reserve
School at Annapolis to be ensigns in
the Regular Navy was made by repub
lican senator's yesterday during consid-
Grafton OF the appointments at an
executive session of the Senate.
The nominations were sent direct to
the Senate by Secretary Daniels on in
structions cabled by President Wilson
lat Paris. Senators Lodge of Massa-
chusetts, the republican leader; Smoot
of Utah and Penrose of PENNSYLVANIA
were said to have insisted that this
was irregular and that hereafter nomi-
nations must come from the White
House.
In transmitting the nominations, Sec
rotary Daniels urged quick action so
the new officers could be sent TO sea.
The appointments were confirmed, but
republican senators were said to have
announced that their agreement in this
ca Sc was not to be accepted as a prece-
dent in acting on nominations coming
direct from government departments.

FoRp'S CHiCANERY.

Washington, Feb. 2O.-The Repub-
lican Publicity Association, throug,,
its President, Hon. Jonathan Bourne,
Jr., To-Day gave out the following state
ment from its Washington Headquar-
tiers.
"The whole fight in the Michigan
Senatorial election case centers around
the primary at which Newberry de-
feated Mr.. Ford for nomination on the
Republican ticket. If it were not fol-
the primary there would not even be
an allegation that there was any fraud
in the election says Senator Town,
send. The part played by Mr.. Ford
in that primary should be clearly
borne in mind by anybody who takes
an interest in the case.
"Mr. Ford was called to Washing
ton by the President, and asked to be-
come candidate for the Senate. He
says he took that request as COM
mand, although he had no disposition
to be Senator, and announced him
self as a candidate. He was asked
what party he would represent, and
said that he was not party man, but
would consent to be a candidate on
both tickets. Of course everything
that was done in behalf of Mr.. Ford
from start to finish was directed by
the Democratic organization of the
State. They tried to select the Re-
publican nominee not to defeat him,
but to prevent the Republicans of the
State from making the choice them
selves. The laws of Michigan prevent
a man from making the choice them
selves. The laws of Michigan pre-.
vent a man from running on two
tickets, but an agreement was made
that if Mr.. Ford received both the
Republican nomination and the Denu.
cratic nomination, he would ac-
cept the Republican tickets as his
own. In that way the Republicans of
the State would not have candidate
on the ticket, and would be compelled
to vote for Ford or each voter would
have to write in the name of his choice.
The Democrats, on the other hand,
were to have the word passed among
them to cut their ticket so far as Inv
Senatorial contest was concerned and
give their support to Ford. The peo-
pie of Michigan were wise to the de-
signs Of the Democrats, however, and
the plan failed to work, Ford was oe-
feated in the primary. and Mr.. New
berry was chosen to represent the Re-
publicans.
"The course pursued by Mr.. Ford
and his Democratic managers and sup
porters in their attempts to contro-
vert the spirit of the primary law was
utterly despicable. They deliberately
