DANIELS ATTACKS
HOOVER DELEGATES
North CaroIinian Says Re-
pubIicans in South Merely
Deal in Offices.


LEXINGTON. KY. October 90
Aiming his fire directly at Herbert
Hoover. Josephus Daniels, Secretary of
the Navy in President Wilson'S cabinet.
in an address. prepared for delivery
here tonight, charged that the national
Republican organization feeds the i'm
potent Republican organization in the
South lin order to secure the delegates
to perpetuate itself" and that the Re-
publican presidential candidate is the
present beneficiary "of the pocket Dor
ough system of Southern delegates.'
Having profited by the system there
is no reason to believe hs will change"
said Mr.. Daniels.
Recalls Taft's Bid.
Reviewing the bid of President Taft
for Southern support before the 1912
election, Mr.. Daniels said: "A few Short
sighted Southern men accepted Mr..
Taft's invitation. Joined the Republican
party, and we're thrown small pums.
Although Mr. Taft. the best-beloved
President Of his party" Mr. Daniels
continued. was sincere in his invita-
ton to Southern Democrats, he could
hardly expect they would do so. He
had no comprehension of their deep
devotion to Democratic principles. Sew
eral years before his invitation. Mr..
Taft warned Southern Republicans
that self-respecting men would not join
their party.
You have no prospect of success
and you do not deserve success unless
you show in the nominee of your con-
ventions that you fully recognize the
obligations you are under as a party"
Mr.. Daniels quoted Mr.. Taft as saying
in speech to North Carolina Repub-
licans, and added:
Denies Party Is Real.
IF some Southern Democrats should
consider leaving the party which they
love because of some disagreement with
the candidates. where could respectable
Southern Democrats go? You know
there is no Republican party in the
South. What passes for it is a skele-
ton in armor or rather corruption.
putrefled corpse. covered with the armor
of hypocritical responsibility. 1t stands
only to deal in Offices. 1t exists only
to provide purchasable delegates to ma
tional conventions.
Investigation has shown that in the
present administration this Southern
skeleton in armor has received the
patronage of the Post ONCE Depart
ment, headed by New. and the Treas
ury Department. presided over by Mel
lon. 1t has been brought out there ars
more than 1000 Federal Offices in the
South not classified under the civil
service, which carry salaries totaling
S8.500.000 year. That pay roll is the
only reason for the existence of the
Southern Republican party"

The former declared: During the next 10 years, if Canada progresses as anticipate, there will be more money expended railway expansion than in any other industry" The latter said Beyond question the railway mileage of Canada will have to be greatly increased"
 Undoubtedly Canada needs more rail facilities to bring about the development of it's vast do- mains in which many areas containing valuable resources unavailable because of the lack of transportation facilities.
