tors Patronage Is Sold in
Virginia
DECLARES SLEMP IS
OFFICIAL DISPENSER
Denial Alleges That No
Money Is Collected by
Republicans ON Promise
of Office

Washington, Dee. I5.--Iu a part
ing shot at his republican foes
just before they ousted him late
today from the house of represen-
tatiyes on the grounds Of election
Irregularities, Representative Tho
mas w. Harrison, democrat OF
the Seventh Virginia district,
charged that the life OF the repub-
lican party In his state was based
on patronage, and then proceeded
to read letters which he declared
proved iqcontrovertibly' that pat
ronage had been sold there.
Amid the utmost confusion IN
the chamber Mr.. Harrison declar-
ed Representative c. Bascomb
Slemp of the Ninth Virginia dis
trict, and republican national com
mitteeman, was the dispenser OF
all patronage. Then holding alofU
handful Of letters and cancelled
checks, Mr.. Harrison exclaimed:
"'rhe people of the country do
not altogether understand Virgin
ia republican politics. IT is a pure
matter of patronage, and a ques-
tion of how they can feed at the
public trough. Why, have been
hearing all over the district OF
matters about the sale OF patron
age. / have been hearing that
offices were sold for what there
was in IL, and I have right here
the lncontrovertible proof that it
is the condition we have been fac
ing in Virginia"
Mr.. Harrison asserted that "the
head of this whole business is the
distinguished member from the
Ninth Virginia district"
"IIe is the disburser Of all pat
ronage," he added. "He Is the
man who has to give his endorse
ment to anybody that applies, not
only in my own state, but also, as
| understand, in other states.
"I picked up a few checks
checks, gentlemen, by the bushel-
They are endorsed, some OF them,
by MIR. Slemp and some OF them
by Mr.. Howard, as his secretary
Mr.. SIenp, interrupting, de-
manded the date, and Mr.. Harri-
son replied that they seemed to run
over a year, from December, l92O,
to January, 1929. The checks were
not read into the record.
Mr.. Harrison said that most or
them were drawn to MIR. Slemp and
MIR. Howard and signed by b. Il.
Powell, whom he later described
in answer to questions from the
floor, as n patronage referee. Most
of the amounts were under SlOO,
he said, and several went to the re-
publican national committee,
While he made no reply in the
house, Mr.. Slemp in a statement
tonight said that neither Powell
nor anybody else had been author
lied to collect money for the, par
ty organization with the promise
of office and il this had been done
it was without his knowledge or
approval.
The vote declaring Mr.. Harri-
sons seat vacant was 202 to 100.
With this done, the house voted

This scrap will be unique In boIlngt
history because II has been preceded
by a delirious discussion that nearly
had every one connected with IL bow
legged and cross-eyoC. For an entire
week nobody seemed to know whether
the LynehSmith thing was going 20
take place or not, because nobody
could ascertain whether the Jersey
Boxing Commission would raise the
suspension on the Midget, which, in
cidentally. barred him from appearing
in this state.
The attitude OF the Jersty authori-
ties had been that In order TO have
the suspension lifted Smith would have
TO 60 through with his engagement to
meet Irish Johnny Cugtin. But when
the Garden management agreed 10 give
Johnny q shot at the winner Of the
Smith-Lyneh affair within two weeks
u was generally concluded that the
boxing moEuls across the river would
take their ban OF the New Yorker.
Then old John ". Rumor and George
p. Report got busy and all hands began
70 60 round In circles. As matter
Curtin nor Charley Doessereek, his
going 10 meet Smith or Abe Friedman,
who had been originally matched with
Curtin, until shout fifteen minutes be-
fore the main bout was to be put on
Monday evening. II was the most re-
markable situation that ever preceded
an important match, 80 far as the
writer knows.
Smith and Curtin weighed In after 3
o'clock that night, and even then no.
body knew whether the Jersey boys
opponent was TO be Smith or Friedman.
Jersey City, as we have remarked be-
fore, takes its boxing seriously. but Il
never took any scrap with more tense
and ridiculous seriousness than II did
this match between Curtin and Smith.
The tension was almost electrical.
As matters stand now the Garden
card FOR Friday night will 60 through
ss originally planned BY Matchmaker
Frank Fiournoy. Smith and Lynch will
step fifteen rounds for the bantam
weight title. IN the semi-hnai the
