SAYS TAFT FORCE
PAID $4,000 TO
MISSOURI MEN

= SEDALIA, Mo-, June 24.-Asser-
lions that alleged efforts of certain
Missouri Republican leaders to throw
support of the states delegation to
a presidential candidate from whose
campaign fund they had. received
money were not new, and that sim
liar attempts had been made in 1908,
1912 and 1916, were made by Herbert
S. Hadley, former governor, read at
a meeting of Missouri Republicans
here today.
The meeting was called to- con-
slider testimony. given recently in
Washington before the senate COM
mittee Investigating presidential
campaign expenditures that Jacob L..
Babler, st. Louis, national commit
teeman from Missouri; w. L. Cole,
chairman of the state committee, and
E. L. Morse, Excelsior Springs,
well-known party worker, received
money from the campaign funds of
some of those seeking the president
ial nomination at ChicaEc EhiS month.
Mr.. Hadley now holds tse chair of
law in the University OF Colorado.
His letter, written to w. C. Pierce,
of Maryville, one of those active in
calling the meeting here, reads in
part:
81 heartily approve of your meet
ing and it's purpose. I am, however,
surprised that anyone should have
been surprised at the disclosure of
the fact that money was secured by
the leaders of the Morse-Babler
crowd for which they were to deliver
| the Missouri delegation at the ma
tional convention. >
"Many of these men have been en-
geged in these same practices for
years. In 1908 they received money

$4,000, to deliver the delegation to
Senator Fairbanks and then when
they found the sentiment was strong
for Taft they laid down on Fair
banks, but kept his money.
In 1912 they made the fight for
the Taft delegates against Colonel
Roosevelt and L understand at the
time they secured from the Taft Or
ganization $4,000 for this purpose.
In 1915 they tried to organize and
sell the Missouri delegation to Sen
ator Weeks, as this year they tried
Lowden.. 1t was common knowledge
in political circles that they were
handling Weeks money. My friends
opposed and defeated this crowd in
the tate convention and afterward
l publicly denounced their purpose to
huckster the delegation to Senator
Weeks. Through the publicity thus
inaugurated a number of delegates
who had received and been elected
through Weeks money refused to
vote for him and he received only
slight support from the delegation
one at all familiar with Missouri pol
itics that from 1914, when j. L..
Babler was elected chairman of the
state committee, that he and E. L.
Morse have worked together on all
party matters and that they have en-
deavored to insure their control of
the party organization by the use
of money!"
