Johnson's vote, in fact, fell 157,918 behind the com- bined progressive and republican vote of two years ago. “Neither will those who remember how the Hughes trip in California was manhandled wonder at the compara- tive weakness of the Hughes vote. It is not generally known that the tour, coming as it did in the midst of a bitter primary fight, was undertaken against the joint telegraphic protest of National Committeeman Crocker and myself. If this advice had been taken, Hughes would have been clect- ed. ., “It has not been printed that Mr. Hughes was brought by his custo- dians to address a meeting of ‘repub- lican’ editors from which every paper supporting Johnson, including many of the most influential papers in the state, was excluded: that h speech was followed by an anti-Johnson harangue by M. H. De Young, and that the editors, without ing from their seats, from which they had just listened to Mr. Hughes, formed them- selves into an anti-Johnson newspa- per league. It has been printed, I think, that, just before going to this meeting, Mr. Hughes had been de- livered to a luncheon at the Mer- chants’ association, where he sat un- der an anti-union placard, and was served by negro strikebreakers, | brought in in the midst of a bitter industrial conflict. “The only organized campaign made for Hughes in California was made by the new republican state committee in the brief month that re- mained after the progressives came into control of that committee. Our predecessors devoted all their ener- gles and whatever money they may have had to a fight within the party to defeat Johnson and myself that he and his committee would be neutral as between Johnson and Booth, State Chairman Keesling conducted the fac- tional campaign of Booth from the office of the republican state commit- tee and in its name. His committee sacrificed the interests of Hughes dur- ing the campaign to the petty fac- tional purpose of preventing Johnson's nomination and finally turned over the committee to us at the very end of the campaign, with assets consist- ing literally of an empty office, with the rent due, without a cent of mone; a scrap of paper or the record of an) campaign made or attempted for Hughes.” Butler Answers Rowell. New York, Dec. 11.—Dr. Nicholas Murray Butler, president of Columbia university, denied last night the ac- curacy of the statement made by Chester H. Rowell in an interview published Sunday that he (Dr. Butler) was in a measure responsible for the defeat of Charles E. Hughes in Cali- fornia. Mr. Rowell was quoted as saying that the actions and utter- ances of Dr. Butler during a trip to California alienated the west. Dr. Butler said: “I must frontery. admire Mr. Rowell's ef- There is not one word of truth in his statements. Having been caught by public opinion with the goods on his person, he cries ‘Stop thief!” at the first respectable man he sees walking down the street. “The one overmastering fact is that Mr. Rowell as chairman of the re- publican state central committee, con- ducted the campaign in California. He had $25,000 turned over to him by Mr. Crocker, Mr. Keesling, and all the regular republicans. He produced a majority of nearly 300,000, for his friend, Governor Johnson, for sena- tor, and a majority of more than 3,000 for his friend Governor Hughes, for president. His own city and county gave large majorities for both ‘Wilson and Johnson. Mr. Rowell now who left the state on August 14, sev- eral days before Governor Hughes came into it, and two weeks be- fore the senatorial primary was held. “This is the sixth or seventh sep- arate explanation that Governor Johnson and Mr. Rowell have offered of the result in California, and it is much the funniest.” Notice! The annual meeting of the stock- holders of the New Britain National Bank, for the choice of directors for the ensuing vear and for the transac- tion of any other business proper to come before said meeting, will be held at their banking house in New Britain, on Tuesday, the 9th day of January, 1917.

MELLEN SEEKS CARNEGIE HERO AID | i | Father of Her Nine Year Old Daugh- ter Dorwned Last Summer Off Indian Neck, Charl street, widow Mrs. A. Mellen of Maple of the late Charles Mel- len who lost his life off Indian last summer while attempting to save the life of a drowning child, has ap- plied to the Carnegie Hero Fund in ! behalf of her nine year old daughter, | Irma, asking that the bravery of the husband and father be properly ac-| knowledged. Officials of the society have advised Mrs. Mellen that as soon as the committee again investigates in this section of the country thig par- ticular case will receive careful con- sideration. | The facts in this mid-summer sea- shore tragedy are well known to New Britain people. Mr. and Mrs. Mellen with Mr, and Mrs, Frederick Eldridge and infant daughter, and Mrs. Fannie Remington, were in a boat off Indian Neck when the Eldridge baby fell into the water with its mother. Mr. Mellen, despite the fact that he had just recovered from an operation and was in a very weakened condition, heroically leaped overboard and took the baby from its mother's arms as she was pulled to safety. At that in- stant the mechanism on the motor boat broke and it control it. The unmanageable boat immediately drifted away from the drowning man and babe, although Mr, Mellen frantically hurled the little baby through the air in hopes that the in the boat might bhe able to it. His last dispairing chance and both man and babe were drowned. . Mr. Mellen was well known in this city and was a veteran of the Spanish-American v CABBAGE GARDEN STRIPPED.
