auMEN CERTAIN OF
DEFEATING HIM
Seek Up-State Man to Op-
lM)se Governor nt the
Primaries.
'K. L. MILLER MENTIONED
Friends, However, Say He "Will
Be
Able to Plnealo His
Opponents.
" tpedal Dnpatrh to Tni Set.
"Albant, March St. One of the most
remarkable feature of the present Be
publlcan political situation Is the abso-
L tut confldmee of both the friends and
""enemies of Gov. Whitman. Those who
'are working for the renomlnatlon of the
"Oovernor will show you facts and (In
ures which prove to them that It will
be lmpoeelble'to oppose him successfully.
On the other hand, the political lead
ers In the opposite corner express the
Brtn conviction that so rllany elements
of disaffection exist among the rank
and file of the party that a candidate
who can unite these elements has much
mora than a 0 per cent, chance of win
nine out at the primaries.
But eo far the search for this man
haa been unsuccessful. ''You can't beat
'aonMbody with nobody," the Whitman
. Ues are saying.
s "Quite true," Is the response, "but
wait. You can't Ret anybody to come out
0,and announce his candidacy until he
-kaows what tho rules are going to be."
Expect Convention to Wis.
t Then these leaders who are fervently
hoping for the defeat of the Governor
explain that they mean It Is not settled
Tat whether there Is to be a State con
tention this year or whether the present
aystem of direct nomination of State
officers Is to be retained. Theysronfl-
a ' dtntly believe that the amendment re-
storing the State convention Is to be
t passed and express the opl:iton that It
can be passed over the Governor's sure
j vato.
Those who were well versed In the art
of making combinations of leaders in
various counties to effect the nomlna-
tlon of certain candidates In the old
'days of tho convention point out that
under this system It will be much easier
v to get an antl-Whitmnn candidate, Un-
dar tha old system a man would be able
to tell where he stood prior to the con-
snuon, wncrcaa unuer me aircci nomi
nation plan the element of uncertainty
would keep him out of the race.
Another thing which prevents the an
nouncement of candidacies .against the
Governor Is the desire not to Imperil
tha success of any legislation In which
" tha friends of a potential candidate might
be Interested. So long as bills are be-
fora him for signature the Governor has
tha whip hand. But as soon as the legis
lature has adjourned and the thtriy-day
Mis are out of the way the enemies of
tha Governor will begin to lay their
plana more openly. At prevent they are
contenting themselves with sounding
publlo sentiment In various parts of the
State, confiding to their friends as a re
sult of their researches up to date that
disaffection is rampant.
Whitman Pose Numerous.
J' There can ba no doubt as to the feel
i -Ing against the Governor. It la heard on
all sides. But how far It will crystal
lise Into a movement that will be dan
gerous before primary day 'Is a question.
Friends of the Governor rely on his abil
ity to placate those who have grlev
ances and to rally to his standard at the
fcreper time many of those who are now
talking most vehemently against him.
.,!,- The Legislature this week enters Its
homestretch. Senator Blon It. Brown,
the Senate leader, may be relied upon to
continue his drive against the Governor
,-and his policies. Friends of the (lov-
ernor consider Brown an Implacable en-
my. But they express the opinion that
i before adjournment Speaker Sweet, who
has been off the reservation, will return
f to the Governor's camp. Much of the
. power of a Speaker lies In his ability
.during the closing days of the Legisla
, ture to bring out of the box or consign
n.to oblivion bills that are urgently d
aired by this or that leader. Hut. It Is
argued, of what avail will It be to pass I :
s-fBui n no uovernor exercise nis
!5jpawer of veto.
Speaker Sweet has a Just grievance
against the Governor for laying plans
last fall to prevent his reelection as pre
siding officer of the Assembly, his friends
9Jsay. The Whitman managers acknowl
edge that the move was a mistake, and
lt Is likely that. If the Speaker returns
jto the Governor's camp, no hurdles will
ba placed In his way for another term
as Speaker, If the Assembly Is Republi-t-.can
again,
e Te Speaker is not likely to continue
,,?U chase a will o' the wisp If he has as
surances of a retention of his present
past. It Is believed.
Want an l'p-9tater.
The men who are planning the down
Tall of the Governor are looking for an
ap-State man to defeat him. Thev be
jilieve that Nathan L. Miller, former
, Judge of the Court of Appeals, now
0 counsel for a large corporation' In Syra
i , .cuse, might be induced to make the race
i It there Is a return to the old conven
,.,,tIon systerr
They thin that William Barnes, who
lias been ont of State politics and de
"voting himself to his business affairs for
u two years, could be Induced to come back
and take off his coat for Judge Miller.
j it is wen Known that he has a high
gerd for the Syracuse man and for some
time lias been looking forward to a
chance to boost him into the Governor's
chair. But Judge Miller certainly would
not be counted on to run under the di
rect nomination plan and there is a se
rious doubt that he would he willing
to take a chance this year even under
a convention system.
At present nobody has declared an In
tentlon to contest the1 nomination of
me uoveraor in the primaries.
"t can't tell you who will run," said
one or trie ablest of the Governor's on
ponepts yesterday, "but It Is Inconceiva
ble to me that some one will not enter
the race. I believe the possibility of
defeating the Governor amounts to a
probability. You have no Idea of the
feeling against him on every side. I
have been talking recently to men from
various parts of the State and they all
tell men the same thlnr."
Of course, William M. Bennett Is not
narKivaril annul sasinr where he stands
In fa-t he Is shouting his opposition to
iiik uovernor irom tno housetops. Ks
P'cj.ng his idea of how easy it would
bj to heat tho Governor, ho said to a
Ji.en'1 nere the other day:
"Why, It can 1 done for ;,nfiO. Any
unii mm mis money, a f ord car an.l a
oarrei or gasolene can turn the trlcl:.
Cropsey Handicapped,
Ml'. Bennett thiults JuitU-a .Lime, i-
Cropsey of Kings, who has a burning
political ambition. Is tho man to defeat
the Governor, Just at present the Judge
Is looking over the field, but making no
decision. Its has said It Is too early to
decide. After tha thirty day bills are
nut of the way will be time enough. It
la conceded he would be strong In Kings
county, but he Is not wall known up
State. Some time ago he started out
to overcome this handicap by accepting
invitations to apeak. Ho made a speech
in lilr.ghamton which got considerable
net Ice, but suddenly abandoned hU plan.
William I Ward of Westchester, for
mer member of the National Committee,
Is one of the strongest leaders who may
be counted to stand against the Gov
ernor to the last. This has led Senator
Gwirge A. Slater of that county to cher
ish ambitions to make tho fight In the
primaries. He tells his friends he could
rally to his support much strength, but
the fact that Mr. Ward so far has with
held any assurances of backing has
kept the Slater candidacy In the back
ground. Francis Hendricks, the venerable and
astute leader of Onondaga county, re
turned from Florida last week and both
factions hastened to learn what his at
tltuJe was. They found htm firm In the
support of the Governor. He Is an ar
0nt advocate of prohibition and his
been much pleased with the Governor's
attltt'de on tltat Issue.
There Is no doubt that the Governor
holds this to be one fit his strongest
assets. Ho Is looking eagerly forward
to the result of the special elections In
thirty-nine cltlea April 16 under the
local option bill to determine whether
the communities shall be wet or dry.
If, as he believes, they will show n pre
ponderance of prohibition sentiment and
tho Legislature has adjourned without I
havlng ratified the Federal amendment. I
he will consider with great care the
advisability of calling a special session
of trr Legislature.
Will Woo Women Leaders,
For another reason the Whttman cam
ps ign managers are watching these elec
tions closely. It Is expected they will
develop women leaders In the various
communities, and an effort will be made
to recruit these leaders for the Repub
lican organisation. No doubt Is ex
pressed but that their sympathies would
be with the Governor because of his con
sistent fight for prohibition.
The Whitman workers do not. or sa
they do not. fear the disaffection of the
farmers. They declarethnt the Gov-T
ernor has been able, or will be able, to
smooth out all the difficulties. Organised
labor Is strongly for the Governor, they
assert. They point to the Important
posts that John Mitchell has held as
head of the Industrial Commission and
the Farm and Markets Council. James
M. Lynch, former president of the Inter
national Typographical Union, Is a mem
ber of the Industrial Commission also.
"The Industrial Commission has suc
ceeded In getting labor and capital to
work absolutely In harmony," said a
member of the Governor's Cabinet to
day: "We have found that nothing but
kind words are being spoken about the
Governor at labor meetings In various
part of the State."
A study of the appointments made by
the Governor "hows he has not been un
mindful of the fact that he would be
running again In the primaries and that
anything that might be done to placate
hostile leaders would not be absolutely
harmful. For instance, two of the
places on the Court of Claims have gone
where they would do the most good. One
ta held by Judge Sanford W. Smith, who
has been the fight hand man of Lou
Payn In Columbia county and whoe In
fluence extends to counties adjacent.
Judge W. D. Cunningham was named to
give representation to flster county, the
leader of which, Philip Kiting. In the
past has always lined up consistently
with William Barnes of Albany.
George A: Glynn, .chairman of the
State Committee, ha definitely cut loose
from his place ns executive auditor at
the Capitol. Ills resignation was ac
cepted last week and on the rame day
ho opened branch headquarters of the
committee In the Ten Kyck Hotel, where
he will be when In this city, lie will di
vide his tlmo between hero and New
York.
G. O. P. Lead 100,000.
The enrolment figures for the State
have been completed and are being
studied by the Stale chairman. The to
tals are as follows: Republicans, "39,
44S: Democrats. 639.906: Prohibition.
21.494; Socialist, 67,940. On the theory
that the women will line up obout the
same as the ms members of their fam
ily, these figures thould be doubled In
each case.
Chairman Glynn believes the Repub
lican party will get a laager prooortlon
of the women than the Democrats, be
cause of the things for wliich Gov.
Whitman has stood. Hut the Demo
crats say they arc having better success
In organising the women then their op
ponents. So, aftur all. It 1s more or less
of a guess.
In the meantime, while the political
pot Is simmering slowly, the Governor
Is taking advantage of eveiy opportu
nity to Increase his popularity. Hp ac
cepts every Invitation his duties here
will permit. There In scarcely a week lit
is not in New York city for the week
end and not Infrequently ho has made
flying trips to the metropolis early In the
week.
DANIELS TO WAR ON
PHILADELPHIA VICE
City Will Be "Ont of Bonnd"
Unless Police Drive Away
the Offenders.
Sptclal Tutfalch to The Sex.
Washington, March 31. Secretary of
the Jfavy Daniels has begun a drive to
clean up Philadelphia, following a re
port ey Raymond D. Kosdlck, chairman
of the Commission on Training Camp Ac
tivities, that the police force is corrupt
and that the city hi a hotbed of vice
endangering men from army and navy
camps In the vicinity. Mr, Daniels has
sent Mr. Fosdlck's report to the Gov
ernor of Pennsylvania and the Mayor of
Philadelphia. Unless some action Is
taken Philadelphia will he ofllctnlly
blacklisted for all men In uniform, who
will not be allowed liberty within Its
limits.
The report on conditions In Philadel
phia contains evidence far eclipsing In
point of Immorality and illegal selling of
lkiuor anything ever heretofore turned up
by Government investlgatore, not except
Ing, Newport, 11. 1., which recently was
made dry as a result of reports sent to
Secretary Daniels. Mr. Kosdlck mado It
clear that he and his assistants have been
investigating conditions In Phlladehpha
ror nine weeks wan agents or tne Depart'
ment of Justice.
Their reports Mww Instance after In
stance where police protection was
given In return for money paid by dis
orderly persons.
Liquor Is easily obtaimtble by mon In
tho mtvIcc, according to Mr. Kosdlck.
The IochI illeft make no effort to utainp
out bootlegging or "speak easles" fre
auented by sailors.
It wouui, or course,
be nostlhl to
put Philadelphia out of hounds for men
on liberty," Mr. Posdlck conclude,
This step, l.owever, would Involve great
hardship on men in the service nnd we
nro not willing to recommend It for your
connlderatlon If there Is any possible
alternative. However, unless the local
authorities nssumo the responsibility
which Is legnlly theirs and effectively rid

T can see no other way out of the dlf-Pculty."
SEABDRY BITTERLY
ASSAILS HEARST
Allied With Tnmmany
Seize State Government,
Ho Says.
to
CITES POLITICAL ItECORD
Up-Stntc DemoeratN Urged to
Prevent Editor's Nomina
tion for Governor.
In a statement addressed "to the
Democrats of New York" and given out
for publication, former Judge Samuel
Seabury of the Court of Appeals,
Democratic candidate for Governor In
1916, makes an attack on William It.
Hearst which for bitterness .of per
sonal expression would bo hard to
match In recent political history. Hearst
and Tammany Hall have formed an al-
Hance to seize the State Government, ac-
cording to Judge Seabury, who calls i
iu.u.... uUu
upon up-ataie ucmocrais 10 ocieai mo
plan through a primary election fight on
Heaast If the editor becomes a candi
date for the Democratic nomination for
Governor.
The statement Includes a plea to Wil
son Democrats to line up against Hearst
and Tammany. Judge Seabury declares
that McCombs was -nominated for sena
tor In 1916 because of a belief that his
nomination would ba offensive to the
President. The statement follows :
"To TllK DKMOCTIATS OF NEW YORK !
"A serious peril confronts ho Demo
cratic party In this State. When the
people are preparing to discard the pres-
?fiTnepubllcan administration our suc
cess Is endangered by the menaco or
Hearst's nomination for Governor.
"We find ourselves In a peculiar situ
ation. A Republican Uovernor presumes
to select his Democratic opponent. Per
haps the wish Is father to the thought.
Gov. Whitman Is probably correct In be
lieving that Hearst would be his most
easily vanquished opponent and hence
names him as the most probable.
"To many the very Idea will seem In
credible, but to say that Hearst Is dis
credited Is no conclusive answer. Though
nelthes the Democratic party nor the
public want him, he is willing to spend
money, always his chief political asset,
througii his own agents to accomplish
his purpose. His ncv spapers prove that
he wants the nomination by prominently
displaying resolutions, poscl by organ
isations controlled by him and Maor
Uylan, urging htm to be. the candidate.
"The people of the State have not ns
yet, completely mastered the dltect pri
mary as a means of expressing their
will. Hcnco a powerful machine, plenti
ful publicity and un unlimited campaign
fund may impose an obnoxious candi
date on the party.
To Seise State Government.
"Hearst and Tammany Hill hae
formed an alliance to i-elte tho Stat"
government. The fusion of Hearst and
Tammany in the last municipal cam
paign and th" present activity of Hearst's
agents, who are cmvassing the Stat in
his interest; prove this beyond question.
"Assuming such a nomination made,
what prospects of success would the
Democratic party havf? There arw over
2,C'00 Democrats in the .--'tate who will
not under any ulruumslanreH oio for
Hearst. Heai st has put himself outside
the pale of consideration as a candidate
for any olllce on the Democratic ticket
"He has fought, usually by foul means,
almost every conspicuous Democrat who
has appeared In public life In tho last
two decades President Wilson, Mr.
Bryan. Secretary Lane In California,
Gov. Dunno in Illinois and the lato Mayor
Gaynor In New York. Ho used his ui
mosl efforts to eliminate all of these men
from public life. lie supported Judge
Hughes agalnt President Wilson In 1916
and openly advocated the election o'
Gov. Whitman.
"For tho last five years he ha per!st
ently and eonhtstently assailed the Pres
ident, against whom no charge was too
desplcahl" for Hearst to gio it utter
ance. Having persistently opposed the
President In all his policies, ho has of
late, as n preliminary ttep to his own
candidacy, been loud in hi a pralc of the
President.
Ilrnret Alone Drfrnted In 1000.
"In 1906 when Hearst was candidate
for Governor h was the only man or,
the Democratic ticket not elected, livery
Democrat c r.irdldnte Mnce that time
whom he could not control he has i)l-
fled, abused and opposed, lie dircct'.v
caused the defe.it of Mr. Chnnler, h'.s
running mr.te In 1906, when that gentle
man ran for Governor In 190S by pro
curing the nomination of Mr. Shearn on
an Independent ticket.
"Hearst has played fast and loose with
Tammany Hall. When It serves his po.
lltlcal Interests he denounces Tammany,
when he gets his prico he makes common
cause with Tammany.
"Why then Is Tammany willing to
deal with him? A contributing reason
Is disclosed by Tammany's action In
1916, when Mcfomhs was nominated for
Senator, for no other reacon than the
belief that his nomination would bo of
fensive to President Wilson. Perhaps
tho samo belief prompts tho derlre to
unnie Hearst.
"Should Tammany he given a con
trolling voice In determining the candi
date? contrary to tho general impres
sion, the majority of Democratic votes
Is not cist In New York city. In 1916
tho Democratic candidate for Governor
polled r.3,000 more vnteH outside of New
York city than In New York city, and
In New York olty he polled 13,000 more
votes than Mayor Hylan did In 1817. It
Is worth remembering that In 1916 this
vote was obtained against the bitter op
position of Hearst with only nominal
support by Tnmmany Hall.
VP-State Democrats Should Decide.
"Up-State Democrats nro therefore en
titled to a deciding voice. They will not
allow themsehes to be mado a mere
convenience by Hearst and Tammany.
Of course Tammany asserts its Inten
tion of non-interference, but as long ns
Mr, Harris remains chairman of the
State committee, a position to which hn
wan elected nnJ where he Is kept by
Tammany Influence, It will be difficult
to make any one believe that the hands
off policy Is nnythlng but a blind. This
State will not tolerate a Hearst-Tammany
control of It government. Such a
combination would bo even more odious
than a third term for the present Repub
lican administration. The present Hearst
Hylan combination In New York city is
only a thin disguise for Tnmmany dom
ination. It Is the urns sinister combina
tion which aspires to annex the State
government. If Hearst Is nominated the
Democratlo pnrty will deserve tho defeat
which will Finely overtake It. The Inde.
pendent and self-respecting press of the.

He has constantly fomented race antago

"That tho country has the benefit of
President Wilson's' services In this criti

to New Yorfc For the sake of Its own
good namo and Its future credit the
.State should relievo Itself of this re

to do so. It will this year express Its
unqualified support of the President and
his policies, provided the Democratic
party In this State does not nominate n
man who for five years last past has
assailed and slandered In the most
shameful way the President of the
United 8tatcn.
"If the opposition to the Hearst-Tammany
control of the State will act In

FLAGS FOR BUYERS
OF LIBERTY BONDS
Names Also to Be Placed' on
Honor Roll Displayed in
Pnblic Place.
Officials in charge of the third Liberty
Loan campaign announced yesterday a
new method by which the campaign Is
brought squarely down to the Individual
and by which It Is hoped to get remark
able results when the canvass opens next
Saturday.
Through a combination of the honor
toll and service Hag plans every person
who bujs a bond will have the right to
display an honor flag. This flag is
rectangular, with a broad red border
eurroundlng a white field. In this white
field are three vertical blue bars, signify
ing the third Liberty Loan.
Nothing on the II ig will show the
amount subscribed by the person in
whoFe window It will be placed. It Is
taken for granted by those In chnrgo of
the campaign that every American will
si-bfrlbc to the limit of his ability. The
slogan. "This flsg In your window will
help win the war" Is counted upon to
aid the selling of bonds.
Sul.f eribers also 111 receive credit on
the public, honor roll. That Is to say,
every man. woman or child who buys a
l.ond will have his or her namo dis
played on a roll beneath which will be
the inscription :
"These are the people in our town who
are helping to win tho war bv investing
In Government bonds of tho'thlrd Lib
erty Ijnn."
Vhis roll will be displayed In the City
Man or some otner public place. It will
be reproduced from day to day In the
newspapers or on circulars, so that the
community may know each day who has
joma tne Honor rou and contributed to
tno support or tho nation by buying
nonos.
In corelatlnn with this will be a com
munity f!c awarded to any town that
has exceeded the quota of the tond Issue
assigned to it bv the Government. The
town or citv that buys double Its quota
will he awmrded tho right to add a blue
star U Its flag. Kvcry additional hun
dred per cent, will mean another star,
so that any community that does more
than lt share will receive full public
credit for Its accomplishment. Consid
erable competition ! expected between
cities as to wh!?h will he given the right
to fly the flag first, ns tho first pres;
entatlcn will have somewhat of an offi
cii touch.
The honor roll principle will be carried
right to the top. A't t'lo towns that have
won tho right to fly the honor flag will
have their names nerrr-nnentlv Te.-ordei'
' on a roll of honor nt fie State Capitol
and the record of States will be In
scribed on a grand honor roll at the
Treasury Depaitment at Washington.
Rolh Ideas grew out of the situation
at Cedarhurst. I.. I. This little town
subscribed 1175,000 In the first campaign
and $1,200,000 in the second drive. Such
a Jump In the subscriptions caused In
quiry and It was discovered that the In
crease was due to thn Ideas mentioned.
It was announced yesterday that the
women of the Second Federal Reserve
District nre fully organized. They have
divided the dWtrlct Into nine subdi
visions, In each of which hundroJs of
women nro ie,uly to start work under
tho direction of an efficient chairman.
Two women who sro In tho anguard
of the women's fight are Mrs. John T
Pratt, chairman of the AV'oman'w Liberty
I.oan Commltteo of the Second District,
and Mm. Courtlandt B. Bnrnes, chair
man of the Woman's Liberty Loan C'cm
mlttco of tho Metropolitan District,
which Is made up of the boroughs of
Manhattan, The BTonx and Brooklyn.
These women will direct the activities
of many workers, who will hrwe charge
of booths at department stores and who
will canvam homes and trades In which
women constitute a large part. They
will also upeak nnd work In theatres
and moving picture houses.
Many prominent women have been or
ganized Into u central cwmmltteo for
the campaign. The committee includes
Mrs. August Belmont. Mrs. Daniel Gug
genheim, Mis. Harry Payne Whitney.
Mrs. Coffin Van Ilensselner, Miss Mary
Garrett Hay nnd Mrs. John V. Hylan.
The canvas-i to lo conducted In the
pollco precincts In the boroughs of Man
hattan. Brooklyn and The Bronx Is In
shape for the opening of the campaign.
Many of tha products will be used as
headquarters for the Liberty Ioan com
mittee In Its work. Lists have been
prepared showing as far as possible
every resident In the district covered by
the metropolitan committee.

WATER MEASURES ATTACKED.
Mayors Urged to Join Fight on
Three Pending; Bills.
Albant, March SI. Mayor Cornelius
F. Burns of Troy, president of the Con
ference of Mayors, lssuod a statement to
day calling on municipalities to join In
the fight against three bills pending be
fore the Legislature which, he says,
would permit private Interests to obtain
control of tho Ktate's water power, Ho
has sent letters to all Mayors nsklng
their support.
Tho bills In question are the Kage
Adler, which provides that the surplus
wateis of the Htnto shall be leased to
thp h'gheft bidder; the Thompson-.Tud-son
bill, which appropriates flOO.ooo to
Investigate the water power situation,
nnd tho illbbs-Zlmniorman bill, which
contains a leasing provision. Mr. Burus's
objection tn the .Hage-Adlcr measure Is
that It would give private Interests full
control of tho water power of the State,
for the reason that municipalities aie
forbidden by other statutes from enter
ing Into a binding contract. The J100,
000 Investigation' Is unnecessary, Mr.
Burns declared.
OIL WORKERS WILL
DINE WITH CHIEFS
Meeting: To-night Expected to
JInrk Epoch in History of
Standard Company.
ST A UTS LABOR REPUBLIC
Banquet. Will Be Served in Di
rectors' Boom nt 20
Broadway.
There'll be big doings In the palatial
directors' room of the Standard Oil
Company. 26 Broadway, to-night, nnd
In Importance nnd significance they will
eclipse most of the deliberations that the
chamber has witnessed elne the organ
ization of America's richest corporation.
A. C. Bedford, president of the Stan
dard OH Company of New Jersey, will
entertain a pllgrlmogn of three score and
fen nil workers from New Jersey.
There's to ho a banquet, and then the
botlermakers, cnndlemakers, loopers,
machinists and others will set them
selves about the task of helping Mr.
Bedford and the other big leaguers In
the Standard Oil run things In New Jer
sey. This epochal event will mark the first
convention of the P.epubllo. of Labor, an
organization of 10.000 oil workers of
Bayonnc, Jersey City and Bayway, N. J.,
which Is sponsored by the Standard Oil
to establish amity and cooperation be
tween the management and tho em
ployees. Over In Bsyonnr, where rioting, law
lessness and terror UFed to be the order
of the day back In 1 PIS and lOlfi, the
nil shops teem .with erpectain-y 111 the
thlrty-feven delegates elected lat Thurs
day to the convention look oer the
shops to-day for proper clothes for to
night's big event.
Expect Borkrfellrr.
The hum of excitement. Is chiefly the
son of a rumor that none other than
John D. Jr. will bo there to-night not
John Domlnlrk Wlczyil. who used to be
the kingpin among the Bayonne I. W.
W.'s. but the one and only John D. Jr.
If the employees havo any grievances,
then to-night's the time for them to open
up and tell the company, and every
thing will be discussed In the open as at
any board of directors' meeting.
So far as Is known, the only thing
Bayonne may spring will bo the request
for an increaee In wages. For three
weeks the workeis hae lieeT. talking
"more money and shorter hoi.rs." Last
October the company boosted the wages
of the New Jersey employees nnother
10 per cent., making the total Jump one
of 94 Tcr cent, ill two years.
Although the directors or the com
pany want this BepubUc of Labor bap
tism to be a sort of Informal affair the
workers who take tho elevator In the
Twenty-six Broadway Building. Intend
to act like Bomans. nnd give It dignity
Instead of atmosphere. There are thirty-seven
of them from Bayonne, twenty
from Bayway and fourteen from Jersey
City, one to every 130 men. There will
be two women. Miss Mary Tully of 704
Avenue E, Hayohne. Is the only woman
delegate, and she w-;M bring along her
forelady. Miss Ida Peterson, for com
pany. Danqnet Mere Prologue.
The banquet of course is to be only
the prologue of the evening's selon
Mr. Bedford and tho Standard Oil offi
cials then will eet about establishing a
magna charta between tho company and
the employees, whereby matters of dif
ference will be settled at 26 Broadway
In convention duly assembled, Instead of
up etalrs In the red wtmnpher of My
dosh Hall, Bayonne. It is really looked
upon as a harbinger of the great
economic readjustment between capital
and labor that the war Is expected to
bring nbout. and Is expected to create a
much needed and eought amicable un
derstanding between the company and
Its men.
John !.. Jr.. Is expected to have as
Jolly a time as hack tn 19U, when he
waltzed nt a miners' dance In Cameron,
Col, and in the Interniist'on had the
time of his ll'e whittling a Hungarian
kid to sleep while the mother did a jig
with her husband.
