Mayor Hague Denies
Offering Edison Aid
For Presidency
Democratic Boss Says
Ward Club Post Is
Best He Can Do
BY the Associated Press. ,

BY the Associated Press.
JERSEY CITY, N. j.. Dec. l.
Mayor Frank Hague said last night
the only presidency he could offer
Gov. Charles Edison would be head
of Democratic ward club"
He referred to an interview given
by the Governor yesterday in which
Mr.. Edison said Mr.. Hague had
offered to use his influence to get
him the Democratic presidential
nomination in 1914. Mr.. Hague is a
vice chairman of the Democratic
National Committee.
Gov. Edison said the offer had been
used as bait by an unidentified
Hague emissary several months ago
in an unsuccessful effort to get him
to make political peace with the
Jersey City Mayor and party leader.
The two have been feuding more
than year, principally over tax
revision legislation.
Hague Derides Statement.
Mr.. Hague replied last night in a
statement:
L don't know what pipe the Gov
ernor is smoking, but it is evident
he should change his brand. There
this one thing for which you have to
admire the Governor. He is no piker
when he thinks in peace terms.
The best l can do is make him
president Of a Democratic ward
club. Maybe that is the presi-
dency he was offered. At least, that

OF the alleged proposal, Gov. Edi-

The Governor dismissed also a
question as to his White House as

He said repeated overtures had been
made to bring about a truce be-
tween him and Mr.. Hague, but that
one of his principal terms con-
tinued to be that Mr.. Hague divorce
himself from political Office and the
Democratic party.
