Republican Chairman Says /. Clarence True Wilson's
 Middle Name Misnomer
HORR SAYS MINISTER
 NOT GOOD CITIZEN
Boasts Religionist for Pub- licly Defending Indicted
 Men Prior to Trials

SEATTLE, Wash, June 23.-In 8 bitter personal attack upon Dr. Clarence True Wilson, visitor here, National Secretary of the Methodist Board of Temperance, Prohibition and Public Morals, Ralph A. Horr, State Republican Chairman, chal- lenged the churchman to file a libel suit against him.
 Horr took outspoken exception to Dr. Wilson's defense of Prohibition Administrator Roy Lyle and the doctors criticism of the State Re- publican Convention.
 In an address before the Conven- tion of Washington Sheriffs and Peace Officers Horr said;
 T cheerfully announce I would appreciate another $50,00O libel suit from Dr. Wilson. I have always been of the opinion the Doctors middle name is misnomer."
 The mention of a $50,000 libel suit referred to the recent filing of such a case against Horr by William M. Whitney, Assistant Pro- hibition Administrator after Horr accused Whitney of conniving with liquor violators.
 Horr said the Republican conven- ton was not according to Wilson's tastes so the doctor condemned it as 'that infamous deal at Belling- ham"
 Horr said further: Those who come to Washington in the guise of religion and try to tell us how to run our State should be told the people know how to run Wash ington. Never have I known re- ligious sect, Protestant or Catholic, passing judgment on indicted men prior to their trial. He has no right to harangue our citizens on matters pending in our courts and make a public plea to the people who may constitute a jury. That is poor citizenship"
