In the list we find Henry Buckley

New York corporations.
In the published list of those pres

Republican officials:
Vice President Coolidge (although
it is not reported that he gave any
thiag); Secretary Mellon, Secretary
Weeks, Attorney General Daugherty
and Senator DUPONT of the Powder
Trust family and New York hotel
magnate,
OF those present VIM. Wrigley, of
Chicago, who is reported to have CIV
en- $4,000, just to start the thing, has
already received substantial benefits
by the taking of the tax off chicle
from which chewing gum is made
and Mr.. Patterson has been benefited
by taking cash registers off the free
list and putting rs per cent tax on
them. The DuPonts have received in
calculable benefits in the chemical
schedule of the pending tariff bill.
The important decisions arrived at
were to take off the limit of 1000 on
contributions alleged to have been i'm
posed by former Chairman Hays, and
to raise 100000 for educationN pur-
poses, which in the opinion of many
here would not be enough to educate
one orthodox Republican; "educa-
tional," in this respect. however, is
merely camouhaged term. The
amount Of money to be raised for
other purposes was limited to the
sky.
The reactionary leadership of the
Republican party, with nothing in the
record of the administration to at
tract or hold voters, has initiated the
campaign Of 1922 by adhering to the
policy of Hannaism and Newberryism
of rallying around the dollar mark.

Harrison Tells of G. o. P. Plan to
Buy the Election.

The Republican conference to "step
on the gas" and Sget the money" was
thoroughly aired on the floor Of the
Senate by Senator Pat Harrison OF
Mississippi, who well summed up the
occasion and the purpose of the meet
ing as follows:
"0f course, the legitimate and hon
est business interests of the country
are thoroughly Disguised with the
manner in which you have legislated
and the way in which you have failed
to solve the great problems that are
pressing upon this Congress, among
them the taxation bill by which you
are attempting to erect tariff wall
around the country, and cause other
countries to retaliate against us and
prevent these honest business inter-
ests from selling their goods in for
eign markets. So it is enough to
know that the people of the great Mid
die West who have been crying for
irrigation and reclamation, appealing
to Senators to pass the McNary-
Smith bill, and it does not come, are
naturally dissatisfied business. la.

your policies. So it is that these rep

Il want to say that l have heard

but think the speech just delivered
oy the Senator from Nebraska is the
best tariff speech that l have ever

this bill that has been made. It is

tie has done the public service in
making this thing so clear, and hone
and believe that what he has said will
be taken by the press of the country
TO the people of the country. He said
1t IN vein Of irony, ii is true, but an
irony which will be understood.
There is no question about the fact
that the people are beginning to un-
derstand this bill pretty well. Out
side OF this chamber, in private con-
yersation and in public gatherings, it
is being discussed with a freedom
with which it is not discussed here.
and the volume of protest and criti-
clsm is growing every day.
The sentiment of the country is
overwhelmingly against it. In fact,
when you get outside of this chamber
1T is very difficult to find anybody,
outside of the beneficiaries, the rep
resentatiyes of the combinations,
whom this bill was made to subserve,
who defend these rates"

Senator King Criticises Attorney Gen.
erals Presence at Fat-Frying
Meeting.

Concerning the alleged presence of
Attorney General Daugherty at the
"fat-frying" conference, Senator Will
liam H. King of Utah, lawyer,
whose ethical sense is of the highest
and finest, made the following perth
nent observation:
ut seems to me that it is bad
enough for Cabinet officers to parti-
cipate in a meeting of that character,
but I cannot for the life of me COM
prehend, in the light of the fact that
suits ought to be instituted for the
enforcement of the Sherman anti
trust law and for war frauds, how The
Attorney General could be present at
a meeting of that character and par
ticipate in it. Of course, it is obvious
that the scheme is to obtain an enor-
nous fund to use at the coming cleo
ton. 1t is obvious that the plan is to
cause Republicans to win and to per-
petuate the Harding machine, to per
petuate Harding men in power; but
in view of the prosecutions which
are pending, and which ought to be
brought, it does seem to me that the
Attorney General should not partici-
pate in meeting of that kind, which
was called for the purpose of obtain
ing money from the big interests of
the United States"
Senator Harrison, commenting of
Senator Kings observations, recalled
the recent letter sent out by Senator
James E. Watson (Newberry Repub-
licanl, who made the keynote speech
for Beveridge in Indiana, to certain
representatives of special interests,
appealing to them to send in contri-
buttons, and then said:
$50 you are working it from every
direction, from the White House, from
this chamber and from the dinner par
ties attended by the Vice President

WASHINGTON LETTER
G. 0. p. Calls on Special interests for
Sky High Campaign Funds.

Washington, June 26.--In defiance
and contempt Of popular opinion con-
corning the huge expenditures of mon
ey in the Newberry and Pinchot pri-
mary campaigns, the Republican Ma
tional Committee recently called to-
gether the "fat purses" and repre-
sentatives of special interests for the
purpose of raising a huge campaign

the purpose of controlling the general
election this fall.

Democratic Line Still Forming on the
Right.

The latest election news from Fred
erick, Md, where the Democrats elect
ed their mayor, city tax collector and
five aldermen by large majority or
June ID, is in line with the results of
municipal elections this year all over
the country. AS fast as the people
have a chance to express themselves
at the polls they repudiate Republican
reactionism by throwing out Repub-
llcan officials or re-elect Democrat.
This is truly Democratic year.

dinners being held in the White House

Old Guard Takes Charge of Pinchot's
Campaign,

The defeat of Clifford Pinchot at
the election of a Republican State
Chairman in Pennsylvania when the
contractor ring ran a steam-roIler
over his candidate and elected Harry
Baker, a Penrose henchman, to con-
duct the campaign, is concrete IL
lustration of the futility of any at
tempt Pinchot may make to put into
operation any progressive ideas or
plans in that reactionary boss-ridden
state.
But the worst feature of the affair
was the evident insincerity Of Pinchot
himself in rushing up and congratu-
lating Chairman Baker. Pinchot
would have no more chance for sue
cess in the State House at Harrisburg
surrounded by the bosses Of the Old
Guard faction than President Hard
ing has success in the White House
surrounded by the Daughertys, the
Falls, the Denbys and Newberrys.

cut out and frame the following letter
from President Harding to the motor
ious Nat Goldstein of st. Louis, who
admitted having taken $500 of Low
den campaign funds when a candidate
for delegate to the Republican Nation
al Convention of 1920, and who was
later named by President Harding for
Collector Of the Internal Revenue at
ST, Louis:
"My Dear Mr.. Goldstein: | have
been intending for some days to make
an acknowledgment Of the very gra-
cious and considerable letter which you
addressed to me under date of May 10.
"You very promptly recognized a
difficult political situation, for which
neither of us is responsible, and you
took yourself out Of it in very
prompt and considerable way. / should
like you to know of my understand
ing Of your feelings and my apprecia.
tion Of your thoughtfulness in helping
to solve it. though YOU were fully con-
scious of the undeserving character of
the attack which your nomination
brought out. | can assure you that
Senator Spencer has said only the
most pleasing things concerning you,
else should not have so approved of
your nomination.

To Members of the Sewing Circle.
You are hereby notified that on June
8 the Republican majority in the
United States Senate voted to take
sewing-machines off the tariff list and
impose a tariff tax thereon ranging
from 25 per cent to 40 per cent on the
value of these machines, thereby en-
abling the manufacturers to raise
their price to you from % to 40 per
cent. There is only one way you can
show your opposition to this kind of
profiteering and that is to vote the
Democratic ticket this fall and thus
help to get sewing machines back on
the free list.

The Case of Busch VS.. Lasker.

That Chairman Lasker of the Ship.
ping Board exhibited a bad temper
in replying to the Busch letter re-
vealing the sale of liquors on vessels
of the U. S. Shipping Board is an
opinion here among many. Naturally
to call Uncle Sam the biggest boot
logger in the world" because of the
sale of liquor on Shipping Board YES
sells would roll Chairman Lasker, be-
cause in this matter Lasker, by grace
of President Harding, is the Repre-
sentative of Uncle Sam, and perforce
the epithet of bootlegger also strikes
at him. 1t is not understood just
why Chairman Lasker should counter
attack upon. Mr.. Busch and other
Americans Of German blood on the
theory that they are trying to injure
the American merchant marine, as he
did in the following; +
ut is, of course, notorious that
Adolphus Busch, who founded your
brewery. was possibly the Kaiser's
closest friend in America, and that
your family for many years has main
tanned castle in Germany; YOUR ac-
ton in any event will not displease
your German friends, whose greatest
hope Of a restored German merchant
marine is in a hurt to Americas new
born merchant marine"
AS it is perfectly ridiculous to as
sumo that Germany could build up a
merchant marine by deJtroying the
American merchant marine, this
would indicate that Chairman Lasker
was not only surprised, but confused
and angry, at the revelation that Las
ker's ships were "wet" when they
were supposed to be "dry."

Moudell sidesteps smith-McNary Bill.

Republican Floor Leader Mondell.
who is one of the most nimble side
steppers and dodgers in the House of
Representatives, is keeping up that
record with reference to the Smith
McNary reclamation bill. Represent
ative Garner Dem. Tex.) did his best
the other day to draw from Leader
Mondell statement that the House
would be given an opportunity to vote
on this bill so greatly desired by the
western states, but failed to get any
positive declaration from the floor
leader.
The merits of this bill and the bill
Itself were described in a nutshell by
Senator Henry F. Ashurst (Dem.,
Ariz.) in a recent speech, in which he
said:
IF this Congress should fail to
pass the Smith McNary reclamation
bill roar of fury, anger and resent
ment would rise from every camp, ev-
cry home, every hamlet and city in the
West. The Republican party is bound,
as far as faith and promises can bind
men, to pass this bill. The proper
committee of the House and the prop
er committee of the Senate have rec
commended it. The bill asks for no
gift. no bounty, no largesse from the
Federal Treasury, but it provides that
an appropriate sum of money-$350,-
900, O00--shall be transferred to the
national reclamation fund and that
the Secretary of the Interior may
from time to time designate lands, ell
igible for reclamation in Mississippi,
Montana, Maine, Michigan, Alabama,
Arizona, Utah, Arkansas, or in any
other State, and that such approved
projects shall be built. The money
will all be repaid to the United States,
hence this is not an appropriation"
