Cash Will Assure Democ
Victory in the West
Cold cash is all that is nec<
ifor the Democrats to regain ci
-ofthe senate, according to a
:Senator T. J. Walsh of Montan
.written to Senator Dial, which
Senator Dial has forwarded to
ernor Cooper.
"I have, as you have dou'
/been advised, undertaken for th
tional committee to direct the
paign for the election of Demo<
senators or at least to give them
aid as can be extended," writes
ator Walsh.
"Increditable as it may see]
yon," he says, "the prospects
excellent in Wisconsin, Iowa
^South Dakota." Then the sei
?gives some details of the fight v
is being waged by the Democra

"Unfortunately," he says, "we

With even a moderate amoun
money we could accomplish
much. Poindexter, who has ch)

the investigating committee thai
has in hand $200,000. If I had <
fourth part of that, we could
doubtedly regain control of the s
ate."
In Sore Need of Funds.
Further, excerpts from Seni
"Walsh's letter are as follows:
"I think it quite likely that
?shall beat S mo ot in Utah and

wish I might put into this letter som(
thing of what I feel concerning th?

anxiety that oppresses me lest it be
irretrievably lost.
"In would be inadvisable, in mj
opinion, for you or any other sena
tor to do any soliciting. But you
. could assemble a few of the party
leaders in your state and represent
to them the dire necessity of the sit
uation. They might be prompted to
organize themselves into a committee
. and parcel the burden out among the
. various communities likely to be n_
terested.
"There was a time when the South
was so straightened financially that
J it could not answer such an appeal
i as this, but thanks to a kind provi
. dence and a Democratic administra.
's tion, it is rich now. Come down and
'. help us."
f Cooper Makes Comment.
' ^?n commenting upon the letter
from Senator Walsh, Governor Coop
er said, "This letter from Senator
Walsh contains most encouraging
news. It shows that only financial
assistance is needed to make the sen
ate Democratic, and is gives our peo
ple an opportunity to show just how
much they are in earnest in their
expressions of hope for Democratic
success.
"Senator Walsh is one of the big
men of the senate and- this statement
from him should be given most care
ful consideration. Our Southern
states are given opportunity to assist
in the fight which is being carried
on in the West."-The State.
