OF PENNSYLVANIA CAMPAIGN

The democratic organiz,.t ion as at
present constituted is differed by
Palmer men, but they have agreed to
, recognize the friends of Gov. James
NJ. Cox as distinguished from those
who have been Palmer men through
thick and thin for several years and
to allow county leaders to unite in
recommending electoral candidates.
To have done otherwise might have
produced unpleasant consequences in
the way of separate committees, while
the raising of campaign funds would
have been handicapped.
Plans for the Cox visit to Pennsyl-
vania call for speeches in congress
sional districts where the fights have
already been started. The republican
organization has been driving in half
a dozen sections and plans aggressive
work in that line. which the demo-
Gratis hope to check by the presence
of the presidential nominee with lead
ers of all factions about him.
With the election of the republican
state ticket assured and even better
representation in the congressional
delegation than this year predicted by
republican leaders, the republican
state organization is inclined to allow
the democratic campaign to develop
in the state at large. But at the same.
time there is a drift of leaders ,oward
definite alignments for the future

paign speeches in his life. Smiths

ALBANY, N. Y. July 31.-Mayor
George r. Lunn of Schenectady will
be the center of the big fight at the
democratic state convention. which
opens Wednesday for the purpose of
designating candidates. Mayor Lunn
has announced that he will be a can
didate for United States senator in
the democratic primaries in Septem-
Der and it is foregone conclusion
that he viii be opposed by the state
organization. Lunn will make a bid
for the regular party Endorsement at
the state convention. but does not ex-
pect to receive the support of the
Tammany followers, SO that some
other candidate will be picked for
the post by the organization, it is
declared. probably Lieut.. Gov. Harry
c. Walker
Lunn has been the storm center of
democratic politics in New York for
the past six months. having fought
the organization on the Wilson issue
at every opportunity. He was for
Wilson and McAdoo prior to the ma
tional convention and warred upon
Tammany at San Francisco, scoring
one notable victory. 1t was Lunn who
went before the national convention
and asked that the New York state
delegates be freed from the unit rule
agreement made by Tammany chief
tains. The decision was favorable to
him and the unit rule was banned.
freeing about ten New York votes to
McAdoo.
Lunn's Announcement.
In New York city last week the
Schenectady executive announced
that he had decided definitely to enter
the primaries as candidate for the
senatorial nomination, chiefly because
of the fact that he believed the Sem
ate would be-a battle-ground of great
Importance during the next national
administration. He says questions and
issues that will work complete
change in the foundation and prin-
ciples of American government VIII
be fought out in the Senate and he
has enough faith in his own theories
and ideas to want to be in the thick
of the struggle.
Tammany leaders have declined to
comment on Lunn's candidacy up to
this time Unless they have expert
enced a complete change of heart to-
ward the upstate man they will have
a sharp knife ready for him at Sara
toga. If he carries out his threat to
run in the primaries it is expected
that the united strength of Tammany
will be thrown in the fracas to crush
him. Lunn has big following in
