WARNS AGAINST BARRING SMITH Ksturst Resolution Opposed by ex-Governor Dunng Chicago, Dec. 30 (® — The pow- ers that guide the democratic party have been warned by one of their own political faitihat denial of the oath of a United States senator to Col. Frank L. Smith of Illinois *‘will be fatal to the party.” The prediction was made by Ed- ward F, Dunne, former democratic governor of Illinois, who declares that such an act “would be the big- gest blunder by the democrats since the Civil war” and the death knell of state's rights. Protesting the proposal of Senator Ashurst, democrat from Arizona, that the senate withhold the oath of Col. Smith, the Illinois democratic leader appealed to the representa- tives of his party at Washington to keep their activity in the controver- sy over Smith's seating in strict ac- cord with Jeffersonian principles. The senator-elect should be given his oath and allowed to present his credentials, after which he could be regularly refused a seat by a two thirds vote, Dunne argued. ‘“Any other method, particularly in view of | his appointment to a vacancy, will be fatal, in my judgment to the demo- WAS HUCH 700 STRONG Tts Indelible Qualities Fine But it Destroyed Paper 1t Was Used On. Rochester, N. Y., Dec. 30 (P— Some old New York city ink seller 1690 and 1700 was blamed at the American Historical Association’s convention here today for having been the cause of destroying many vathmble records of historical inter- est. The black ink with a brownish tinge sold by the firm made the rec- ords perfectly legible, A. P. Hoard, of Taunton, Mass., told the histor- ians, but it was so strong that it has eaten the pages into picture puazles, with many pleces lost or misplaced. In some places the ink was dilut- ed, he said, but its use has been traced in towns up the Hudson river to Albany, along the shore line of Connecticut and up through the towns on the main highways of the period and then south through New Jersey, Maryland, Virginia and the Carolinas. The destructive work of the ink in Virginia records, Mr. Hoard said, has been abetted by the activites of bookworms. Despite the ravages of time and rough handling, science has been able to restore many records, Mr. Hoard declared, explaining that not only faded writing has been made legible, but maps have been re- cratic party. “I cannot conceive of political leaders nurtured in the school of Jefferson even giving consideration, much less support, to the doctrine proposed by democratic members by the United States sen- | ate. ly, to do what Senator Ashurst pro- poses shall be done would be the big- | gest blunder by the democrats since the Civil War. “It won't hurt the republicans so much, because they constitute the party that has been naming judges who are carrving out the centralized government program of extinguishing all state rights. The Ashurst proposal, if adopted, would mean the wiping out of the last vestige of state sovereignty which the federal constitution intended never should be done.” Affirming his political opposition | to Col. Smith without passing judg- ment on the campaign expenditure charges about which the controver- sy over Smith's scating revolves, Dunne defined the peril to the party to be, in repudiating a certificato of election, opening the way for repub- licans at some late date to refusei recognition of credentials of demo- | cratic senators from southern states | by charging that the elections vio- lated the constitution, with regard to the amendment giving the negro the vote. Senator Ashurst, sponsor of the protested resolution, forwarded to Gov. Small of Illinois a request for | particulars about his appointment of Col. Smith to complete the unexpired | term of the late Senator William B. | McKinley. The Arizona senator | wanted to know whether Smith was appdinted on the strength of his re- cent clection to the long term, or for other reasons. Gov. Small has indicated he chiefly was guided by the verdict of the ballots. ! Meanwhile republicans at Wash- | ington rested and awaited a fi statement from Smith as to his ac- ceptance or rejection of the appoint- | which he again declined to here last night. ment, make DECLARES KNAPP SANE Expert On Mental Disorders clares That Aged Bridgeport Man is Not Without Good Mentality.
