DISPATCH TO THE CALL Liang Tun Yen Will Be New Representativelit Washington ALSO OTHER CHANGES Sir Chentung Liang Cheng Will Be Promoted to Secretaryship Quite regardless of any- trust opera- tions on the MacDougald body by Fisk and McCarthy, . or the rejuvenation of Crimmins, Senator Edward I. Wolfe has definitely renounced the mayoralty aspirations so generously ascribed to him since early last winter. Wolfe was bo 111 during the last two weeks of the legislative session that It was with difficulty that he maintained the management of the measures of .party policy Intrusted to him. His health has not improved as it was expected It would after adjournment of the legis- lature. He is able to give only a por- tion of each day to his private busi- ness," and says most emphatically that his running for any office this year is entirely out of the question. Meanwhile, the one^really active re- publican is : the late Phil Crimmins, who as a'salaried employe of the Southern Pacific has not been permitted to en- joy even a look in at local politics. for several ..years. Crimmins has no avowed candidate for mayor. He is merely looking for delegates. The dis- position of any delegates he might se- cure could, of course, be formally de- cided upon later by the legal depart- ment of the employing corporation. \>.£ The MacDougald boomers insist that the ex-treasurer's chances are greatly enhanced by the Rooseveltian reformed spelling propaganda, and claim , that the famous letter McCarthy compelled him to write will again, come to the front' as a sizzlingly effective campaign document. ;^t^x.v y."" John A. MacDougald, republican- union labor candidate for mayor, by grace of the coalition of those mighty powers, Arthur Fisk and P. H/ Mc- Carthy, is the substance of the latest dream evolved by the prophetu who vainly seek to bring something like order out of the local political chaos. The resurrection and evolution of MacDougald, candidate, is theoret- ically ingenious. Primarily, it is based on the assumption that Schmitz will find It Impolitic to attempt to force his nomination by the union labor party. For the calcium effects of the first act the row between McCarthy, and "Walter Macarthur Is produced. The ..fight be- tween McCarthy and Macarthur is to be a fight for political supremacy. Mc- Carthy is to win by reason of the numerical strength of -the organiza- tions with which he is Identified. Then he Is to take up MacDougald. not be- cause he likes the sometime treasurer, but because MacDougald is strong with labor, and because Fisk, who has been struggling with the equitable title to* MacDougald since the split of the Macs. to be relied upon to deliver a republican machine nomination as an accompaniment. .;. MacDougald was formerly held in a limited partnership by McCarthy and Fisk. McCarthy represented the labor stock and Fisk the republican half of the •\u25a0. MacDougald combination. Mc- Carthy let go of his Interest, but Fisk hung on to the republican share. It | is. now claimed that he has consulted the legal department of the Southern Pacific and has been advised to perfect his title, by incorporation. It is ad- jmltted' as obvious by the seers that McCarthy -.cannot pick up his rejected stock save by indirection. MacDougald would have no first person dealings with McCarthy, but they could be made political bed fellows through the good offices of the assuming partner, Fisk. George A.

Sir Chentung Liang ChengWill Be Promoted to

Quite regardless of any- trust opera-tions on the MacDougald body by Fiskand McCarthy, .or the rejuvenation ofCrimmins, Senator Edward I.Wolfe hasdefinitely renounced the mayoraltyaspirations so generously ascribed tohim since early last winter. Wolfewas bo 111 during the last two weeksof the legislative session that It waswith difficulty that he maintained themanagement of the measures of .partypolicy Intrusted to him. His health hasnot improved as it was expected Itwould after adjournment of the legis-lature. He is able to give only a por-tion of each day to his private busi-ness," and says most emphatically thathis running for any office this year isentirely out of the question.

Meanwhile, the one^really active re-publican is:the late Phil Crimmins, whoas a'salaried employe of the SouthernPacific has not been permitted to en-joy even a look in at local politics. forseveral ..years. Crimmins has noavowed candidate for mayor. He ismerely looking for delegates. The dis-position of any delegates he might se-cure could, of course, be formally de-cided upon later by the legal depart-ment of the employing corporation. \>.£

The MacDougald boomers insist thatthe ex-treasurer's chances are greatlyenhanced by the Rooseveltian reformedspelling propaganda, and claim , thatthe famous letter McCarthy compelledhim to write will again, come to thefront'as a sizzlingly effective campaigndocument. ;^t^x.v y.""

John A. MacDougald, republican-

union labor candidate for mayor, bygrace of the coalition of those mightypowers, Arthur Fisk and P. H/ Mc-Carthy, is the substance of the latestdream evolved by the prophetu whovainly seek to bring something likeorder out of the local political chaos.

The resurrection and evolution ofMacDougald, candidate, is theoret-ically ingenious. Primarily, it is basedon the assumption that Schmitz willfind It Impolitic to attempt to force hisnomination by the union labor party.

For the calcium effects of the first act

the row between McCarthy, and "WalterMacarthur Is produced. The ..fight be-tween McCarthy and Macarthur is to

be a fight for political supremacy. Mc-Carthy is to win by reason of thenumerical strength of -the organiza-

tions with which he is Identified. Thenhe Is to take up MacDougald. not be-cause he likes the sometime treasurer,

but because MacDougald is strong withlabor, and because Fisk, who has beenstruggling with the equitable title to*MacDougald since the split of theMacs. I« to be relied upon to deliver arepublican machine nomination as anaccompaniment. .;.

MacDougald was formerly held in alimited partnership by McCarthy andFisk. McCarthy represented the laborstock and Fisk the republican half ofthe •\u25a0. MacDougald combination. Mc-Carthy let go of his Interest, but Fiskhung on to the republican share. It|is. now claimed that he has consultedthe legal department of the SouthernPacific and has been advised to perfect

his title, by incorporation. It is ad-

jmltted' as obvious by the seers thatMcCarthy -.cannot pick up his rejectedstock save by indirection. MacDougald

would have no first person dealings

with McCarthy, but they could be madepolitical bed fellows through the good

offices of the assuming partner, Fisk.
