    BONNIWELL NOT I
TO BOSS MACHINE
Palmer-McCormick Leaders
Decide to Make a Fight
Against His Proposals
The Palmer-McCormick bosses will
fight the attempt of Judge Eugene C.
to take the control of the
T")emocratic state machine away from
them. The judge will be told he is
only one of six candidates and that
he can not run the party in the
state. Steps to line up state com
mitteemen for a battle that will be
as historic as the session which gave
reorganizes the control are under
way on both sides.
The Palmer-McCormick people
met in Philadelphia yesterday and
outlined their plans. The Philadel
phia Inquirer says of it:
"Complete defiance of Judge Eu
gene C. Bonniwell, the nominee for
governor in his plans to dominate
the Democratic state committee and
to have his personal selections put
into the chairmanships of the state
committee and the Philadelphia city
committee as well, was determined
upon at a conference of McCormick-
Palmer leaders of the state demo
cracy.
"The following program was
agreed upon:
"J. Washington Logue, of Phila
delphia, nominee for lieutenant gov
ernor, must not withdraw from the
ticket, as Judge Bonniwell has plan
ned, in order that a 'wet' candidate
may be substituted in his place.
"Asher R. Johnson, of McKean
county, nominee for secretary of In
ternal affairs, must not withdraw in
order that Judge Bonniwell may be
helped in making up a complete
ticket of his own selection.
"George R. McLean, of Wilkes- 1

THE G
THURSDAY EVENING,
Barre, is to be backed by the McCor
mick-Palmer leadership for chair
man of the Democratic state commit
tee, regardless of Judge Bonniwell's
recommendations of two Lehigh
county Democrats for this place. Mc-
Lean is a brother of the present
chairman, W. S. McLean.
"There will be vigorous opposition
and it is claimed successful, to any
proposition that may come from
Judge Bonniwell for a 'wet' plank In
the state platform. The least they
will do will be to have the platform
remain silent upon the prohibition
issue.
"It was also agreed that there i
shall be a campaign committee of!
fourteen to be named by the chair
man of the Democratic state com
mittee when the new chairman shall
be elected and that Judge Bonniwell
shall be given the privilege of nam
ing the chairman of that committee.
"As the Democratic state com
mittee were elected for a term of two
years the McCormick-Palmer fac
tion is determined that Bonniwell
shall not get control of the chair
manship of the committee, which
will be in control when the dele
gates to the next Democratic national
convention shall be elected."
The Record says: "Mr. Palmer
intimated that he is strongly oppos
ed to Mr. Logue withdrawing as a
candidate for lieutenant governor.
'That would be asking too much,' he
declared. 'lt would not be fair to
the voters who supported Mr. Logue
to ask him to withdraw as a candl
cate after he had fairly won the
nomination.' Mr. Palmer also de
clared that it is probable George H.
McLean will be a candidate for state
chairman. 'Two years ago,' he con
tinued, 'the state committee selected
William S. McLean, Jr., as state
chairman. Shortly afterward, Mr.
McLean entered the Army, and he
was forced to withdraw. I think I
can safely say that If Mr. McLean
was here now he would be a candi
date for re-election, and that he
would be elected.' According to the
Palmer plan, Sedgwick Kistler will
be re-elected treasurer of the stafte
committee and Warren Van Dyke
secretary.
Salmon Cannery Fleet Is
Caught in Behring Sea
Wnshlngton.—The first merchant
fleet this year from Seattle to the
salmon canneries on Bristol Bay has
got stuck in late Ice in Behring Sea,
and one steamer, the Tacoma, has
been sunk, according to word re
ceived by the Department of Com
merce.
The Ice steamer Roosevelt, of the
Bureau of Fisheries, has located the
crew and passengers of the Tacoma
and has gone to their assistance.
Four other ships were towed to
safety by the Roosevelt.
The following wireless message
from the commander of the Roose
velt was received:
"Brought barkentine Centennial to
safety. She had no rudder and stern
post was gone. Have located camp
of Tacoma survivors. Am going for
them now."
The fleet carried several hundred
persons, mostly workmen going to
work in the salmon canneries. How
many vessels were in the fleet is not
known here but as the crews and
passengers of five have been taken
to safety, it is believed there has
been" no large loss of life.
NEVADA "DRY" IV 1920
Reno, Nev., June 13.—Nevada will
bo "dry" in 1920 if terms of agree
ment reached at a conference of the
Liquor Dealers' Association and the

ture, which will be called soon, a
bill will be introduced prohibiting
traffic in liquors In 1920, a recom
mendation will be made for the rati
fication of the national prohibitory

to compensate liquor dealers for loss
es on a basis of 75 per cent, for
