nor Miller will no doubt succeed in
dominat ting the State Republican
convention. which opens here today,
and bringing about the nomination
Of his own ticket.
United States Senator WadswOTth
and State Chairman GlYnn, who
were relied upon by the insurgents
to make a stand against the COVER.
nor's slate, seemed disposed today
to yield obedience.
Wadsworth. upon whom Attorney
General Newton and Secretary of
State Lyons counted most. said:
This is Governor Miller's convcn-
ton. Let him run it. He's the
boss in the open"
Miller Is confident he has put the
skids under every candidate who
sought to defy his ediCt that he b"
allowed to name all the nominees on
the ticket.
He predicts that Newton, Lyons,
and Engineer and Surveyor Williams
will listen to his commands to with
draw from the race for nomination
before the nominating speeches are
made.
The trio were in n fighting mood
until Wadsworth and Samuel :.
Koenig, of New York, got their Or
ders from the governor.
To Wadsworth, Miller directed:
Get Newton off the ticket or l
won't run"
To Koenig. the governor said:
IT won't run unless you get rid Of
John Lyons"
wadsworth at once sought Newton
and said something like this:
"I am sorry, Charlie, but the gov
ernor does not want you as run
ming mate. and 1 shall have to be
with him"
Newton replied that he would keep
up the fight so long as he had del
egate left.
Here is the State ticket the gov
ernor has approved:
His own name for governor; vii.
liam NJ. Calder, Of Kings, for United

Give me anybody but Lyons, and
TIL put him on for secretary OF

said to Koenig.
Then the governor got out his blue
pencil upon the platform framed by
National Committeeman Charles ID.

There was no suggestion in the

COAL MEN WAIT
ON FUEL Chief,
ASK MORE CARS
Mines Can Be Kept Going Only
Two o. Three Days a Week,
They Tell Spens.
by international News Service.

Plans for the speedy transpOrta-
ton of coal were discussed today
with Federal Fuel Distributor Spens
by a committee from the National
Goal Association, headed by J. c..
Brydon, of Somerset. Pa.
The operators told Spens that a
survey of the soft coal producing
fields showed only cars enough to
keep the mines going only two or
three days a week, while the car
supply in some fields was even
more inadequate.
The closest cooperation between
railroads and coal operators was
needed, they said, so that additional
cars could be furnished at the
mines to move coal to the market.
The operators did not Criticise the
railroads, explaining that they APP
preCiated the condition in which the
carriers found themselves at the
close Of the long shopmen's strike.
Spens has named advisory com.
mittees. representing transportation
and industry, to cooperate with him
in working out coal distribution
plans.

Uncle Sam Is Rated
Millionaire Oil
Producer
BY Universal Service.

Uncle Sam is a millionaire oil
producer. He made this admis-
sion through the Bureau of Mines
today. So proud is he of his sue
cess in the business that he took
the country into his confidence
and disclosed his income from
this source.
From the production Of oil,
natural gas and natural gas-gaso-
line on his lands in the Western
States he received in August the
neat little sum Of $778,378.11 in
royalties. He doesn't have time
to bother about producing him
self. He lets this part Of the job
out to private parties.
UP to August 81, it was stated,
Uncle Sans total net royalties
from this source had reached
$7,187, ,493.77. OF the August
royalties $354,751 40 came from
California, 1888 8,819.46 from Wyo-
ming and $34 4,807.25 from Mon
tana.
Uncle Sam is generous, how
ever, and only retains 10 pei
cent.

Arrested For Urging
Guinotine For
Harding

BALTIMORE, Sept. 27.-D.
X. Pavey, who says he lives at
$40 West Lombard street, does
not agree with President Hard
ing on the railroad shopmen's
strike. Still less does he ap-
prove of Attorney General
Daugherty's stand.
That is why, he told ]. Frank
Supplee, ir., United States Com
missioner, yesterday, he ad-
dressed a postcard to the Presi-
dent branding Daugherty a
traitor and declaring the writer
and others who hold similar
views would have to resort to
the guill9tine for such an Hard
ing. .
To the postcard was attached
an editorial clipped from a New
York newspaper condemning
Daugherty's action on the strike
injunction.
Pavey was arrested by Capt.
Charles E. Wright, of the
United States Secret Service,
and held in $1,000 bail by Mr..
suppiee for a hearing today on
charges of publishing through
the mails defamatory and
threatening language.
The Washington times., 1922-09-27

And Senator Pepper, who could swal-
low the Newberry vindication. seems
also unable to swallow the Daugherty
Injunction. And many Republicans
in Washington who are not throwing
1t up publicly are finding it sitting
heavily on their stomachs privately.
Senator Mccormick in 1910, as
Republican editor, found the
Payne-Aldrich tariff a bit too much
to endure. He now finds the ex'
cesses of our officers of the law a
bit too much to endure. He was a
good Judge of what was too much
then. and 1t is hoped in some quar-
ters and feared in others that he
may be a good judge of what is too
much now.

man; and former Mayor Cornelius
J. Burns, of Troy, will be the first
choice of the Albany and Rensselaer,
county delegation. The latter will
be led by Jos. j. Murphy, bitter foe
of former Governor Smith.
Roscoe Erwin, former collector
Of the port for Albany, will fig.
ure as an Ulster county guberna-
torial white hope. Thomas B.
Lockwood, the man who nominated
Grover Cleveland for mayor, gov
ernor and President, will receive
the support Of the Erie county
delegation on the early ballots.
Abide By Tammany.
All or any of these candidates
are professedly willing to abide
by the decision of Tammany in the
matter of a convention choice.
With the arrival of Mr.. Murphy
it is announced that James j.
Walker, Democratic leader of the
State senate, will be chosen as
the temporary chairman and key
note orator of the convention.
This position will be ratified by
the Democratic Executive Com.
mittee, which meets today.
Observers hoped to fathom Mr..
Murphy's attitude through the
foregoing designation. Admittedly
they were puzzled by the choice.
Walker is essentially a Tammany
man and will make the kind of a
speech that will fit best with the
occasion. Therefore, his presence
upon the platform at the opening
of the convention tomorrow will
have no special significance.
One of the most prominent men
mentioned as a gubernatorial aspi-
rant will probably be drafted for
the United States Senate. in the
opinion of the State leaders.
Little attention has been given
as yet to claims of rival candi-
dates for the lesser offices.

SYRACUSE, N. Y. Sept. 27.-
Charles Francis Murphy, leader of

City Democratic hosts, will dominate
the State Democratic convention
that will open here tomorrow.
Neither a gubernatorial nor a
Senatorial candidate can be named
without his sanction. His all-per-
Vading influences will dictate the
rest Of the State ticket and even the
platform must have the Murphy o. X.
Murphy arrived yesterday after
noon, surrounded by New York City
leaders. He was besieged at the
train by William H. Kelley and a
delegation of upstate bosses bent
upon capturing his ear.
