MORRIS'MOVEMENT
FOR BAR OPPOSED
Democratic State Chairman Favors
"Wet" Club, but Starts
Democratic Row
An interesting aftermath of the re
quests made of liquor dealers by Dem
ocratic State Chairman Roland S.
Morris for cash for the Democratic
campaign fund has come from Phila
delphia, where it appears from news
papers that the recommendation of
Morris and some friends that a bar be
reopened in a club has caused a row.
The Philadelphia Record of to-day
says: "A special meeting of the Dem
ocratic Club has been called at tho
request of twenty-five members for
to-night to protest against the renom
ination of State Chairman Roland S.
Morris, Harry D. Weseott and E. B.
Seymour, Jr., that the bar bo re
opened. Messrs. Morris, "Wrscott and
Seymour were recently appointed u.
committee to devise means to linanco
the club. In opposing the 'wet' move
ment of the Morris committee, Presi
dent Hoslcins has written to members,
in part as follows: 'The audit just
completed of the eight months that
liquor was sold in the club shows an
average monthly loss of forty to fifty
dollars. It added no strength to th«
club, drove many good members out,
and threatens now the resignation gt
many more of our best members, At
least three hundred members whoso
names were carried on our rolls and
who never paid a dollar of dues, wcr«
the greatest advocates of the bar.' "
