19 DEAL ON WITH DEMOCRATS Moroer Arranges to Have Hitchoook Put In Nomination, FINDS ED HOWELL READY FOR A TRADE Object in to Have Democratic Nominee Who Cannot Draw Votes of Anti-Mercer Republicans. ~Politieal Doings, “At the congressional convention tomor- row,” said a leader of the anti-Herdman- Howell faction yesterday, “The demo- eratic party of this district is to be de- 1iberately and disgracefully traded off. The bargain has been made between the Herd- man-Howell clique and the Mercer man- agers, and it only remains for so-called delogates of the party to carry it out in convention, Lee Herdman and Ed Howell named this delegation and as they control it absolutely there has been uo hesitancy on their part to negotiate for its delivery 1n the Interests of Ed Howell's candidacy for mayor. The bargain has been made with the Mercer clique of mo-called repub- licans and the agreement is to nominate G. M. Hitchcock for congress In considera- tion of a promise from the Mercerites to help elect Howell mayor next spring. *“The whole deal rests on the presump- tion that the republicans are to nominate Mercer and Moores, and the end aimed at 18 the election of Mercer and the defeat of Moores. Few democrats believe that Hitch- cock would poll the full vote of the fusion- 1sts, and not one thinks for a moment that Be could win out. Mercer has realized all along that the opposition to him in his own party is %o strong and irreconcilable that e could not be elected if nominated, in case the democrats put up a man who could gather in the votes of those republicans who are opposed to him. So the point with him—and a point preliminary even to his nomination—was to see that the democratic nominee should be one who could not get | the support of the anti-Mercer republicans. }That is why the democratic convention has been called before the republican conven- (tion and that is why Hitchcock is Mercer's ,man. The whole thing is as plain & the nose on your face. If Mercer is to be the republican candidate, the only hope of elect- 'ing the democratic nominee is the hope ot baving him draw the votes of the anti- ‘Mercer republicans. Hitchcock, of all men, 18 the last man to do this. “In return for the momination of Hitch- cock, Mercer's managers promise to help nominate and elect Ed Howell mayor next spring. Furthermore, they promise in the event of Mercer's defeat at the republican primaries and the nomination of some other republican for congress to turn In and help elect Hitchcock. And that is what Hitch- cock gets out of the deal. The most dis- aceful part of the whole transaction s the selling out of the democrats of this dis- trict like 86 many cattle.”” The deal to nominate Hitchcock and his expressed following card, published at the head of the editorial page of the World-Herald of June 30, of timely interest: Some discussion having arisen concerning the gmjm of nominating me for congress in this district I take this occesion to say that I am not and will not become a candi- date. I appreciate the good will of those ‘who proposed my name, but 1 cannot undertake to make the race. G. M. HITCHCOCK.
