Syracuse, X. T-. Sept. 30. (U. P.)
Having nominated Al Smith for gov
ernor and Dr. Royal S. Copeland for
United States senator, delegates to the
Democratic state convention dispersed
today wondering whether the organi
sation is going to be split by W. R.
Hearst.
Hearst withdrew when it became
apparent that Charles F. Murphy of
Tammany Hall was deterarined to
support Smith. Mayor Hyland off New
York, strong Hearst supporter, with
drew as a delegate immediately
Hearst, in his telegram of withdrawal,
declared he would not run for office
on a reactionary ticket. This was be
lieved to have opened the way for him
to run as an independent.
Although it was learned on good
authority that Murphy had believed
that he could placate Hearst" by adopt
Wig his platform and allowing him to
name the candidate for United States
senator, a nomination the publisher
desired- for himself, it became known
this morning that Hearst had nothing
to do with the naming of Royal S.
Copeland, who is health commissioner
in Mayor Hyland s official family m
New York city.
Xo word has been received here as
yet as to v. hat action, if any. Hearst
will take. Upstate leaders are not
showing the least apprehension over
Hearst's attitude either.
Gorge R. Lunn, mayor of Schenec
tady, was nominated unanimously
lieutenant govetnor.
The vote nominating Smith was
unanimous, 734 votes being cast lor
him. When the result was announced
there was another brief ovation for
the ex-governor.
The convention adopted a resolution
extending well wishes to former Presi
dent Woodrow Wilson.

Huge Locomotives
Need Two Firemen,
Brotherhood Says
(By United J'e)
Chicago. Sept. 30. The building of
the modern huge i-ailroad locomotive
with heavier engines being turned out
every month, has caused the Brother
hood of Locomotive Firemen and Engi
neers to demand new working rules
calling for the employment of two fire
men on every coal burning locomotive
on road work weighing more than 200
tons.
D. B. Robertson, president of the
brotherhood, conferred with Chair
man Ben W. Hooper of the labor
board. Friday, and asserted that It was
almost a physical impossibility for
one fireman to keep coal in one of the
250 or 300 ton engines now in use on
some roads.
The firemen will press their demand
for either two firemen or automatic
stokers on such engines, to the limit,
Robertson declared.

craf t . of Thomas Kann, 35 years old
.nd unmarried, a fisherman employed

Revenue Tax Issue
Submitted to U. S.
By Local Collector
If the handlers of produce on Front
street are commission men they don't
have to pay a license, to the govern
ment, but if they are brokers they
must pay a license of $50 a year:.
Clyde G. Huntley, internal revenue
collector, has submitted the arguments
pro and con to headquarters at Wash
ington, D. C and is waiting for a
decision. Meantime, the Front street
merchants argue among themselves.
Some of the merchants have been
paying the license regularly rather
than have any legal trouble. Others
have refused and are appealing their
case. Most of the merchants take
produce from the producer 'and do not
pay for it until they have sold it and
the money has been collected. This
makes them brokers, the internal reve
nue office maintains, because the com
mission man pays for the produce and
takes his chance of selling it.
ROSS-TURK PACT
WAR INSTRUMENT
Washington, Sept. 30. The official
text of the treaty negotiated between
Russia and Mustapha Kemal reached
the state department through official
channels Friday. Official who exam
ined it described it as the most 're
markable pact of modern times., since
it is a 'bod of alliance between two
of the most bitter ereditarrenmies
in history. --- f
As understood by -officiate here, Rus
sia was 'forced to negotiate the. treaty
tc prevent her national existence from
being jeopardised. They pointed out
that without ; such a treaty Russia
would have been i isolated from all
military assistance if attacked, with
the result that Russia, denied assist
ance by her former allies, would be
helpless. I '-' l
The treaty is said; to be clearly one
providing for military cooperation at
the demand of the 'signatories. It is
believed to explain why the Turks and
Russians recently bombarded British
merchant vessels out of Batum. at the
eastern end of the Black sea. ,
It is also said to account far the
persistence of Kemal in his advance
on Smyrna and his locking horns with
the British military forces at Chanak
on the Dardanelles.

Borah Predicts
New Party Because
Of Extravagance
(By Unir.ru 1 Serriee)
Chicago. Sept. 30. United States
Senator William E. Borah, in an '-address
here tonight, charged the coun
try is being undermined by "criminal
"Saste and extravagance at Washing
ton." He spoke before the City club.
Mr. Borah, while a Republican, indi
cated that unless there is a change in
the attitude of the administration, a
third party may be in the field. He
blamed both the Republican and
Democratic parties for extravagance.
"The Republicans and Democrats
are now engaged in charging one an
other with responsibility for this con
dition," he said. "Both are absolutely
right. The United States treasury to
day is without protection. Almost any
kind of propaganda can get what its
backers want from the treasury."
Senator Borah said that propaganda
in behalf of bolshevism comes from
Washington not Russia.
