even year ot all previous records since
Washington's time. Still later In his
flying trip through the state the candi
date 'declared with great emphasis that
Mr. Bryan and the Democratic party were
responsible for at least two years of
fighting In the Philippines, which would
have been unnecessary In the absence of
opposition in this country.
The personal demonstration of Mr.
Taft's capacity as a campaigner, added
to the positive announcements he made
In his numerous speeches, constituted
an Important epoch In the Republican
campaign.
Talks Clear Across Ohio.
Mr. Taft, who Is comfortably en
sconced tonight at the home of his
brother. C. P. Taft. began the day with
an address to the veterans, who are
quartered at the soldiers' home at San
dusky. He talked patriotism and not
politics to the veterans and was cor
dially received. Then came the prin
cipal speech of the day to an audience
which filled the Sandusky opera-house.
At 1:40 o'clock the start was made In a
special for Cincinnati. Ten minutes
later at Castelia, the candidate re
ceived not only the cheers of the popu
lace of Castelia, but a huge bouquet of
garden flowers tossed to him on the
rear of his car by a crowd of children.
Short speeches were made at Cas
telia, Tork. Carey. Urbana, Wharton.
Green Springs, to enthusiastic audi
ences. Springfield and Dayton vied
with each other for the biggest crowds
of the day and each was expressive of
enthusiasm. Red fire and torches
helped the crowds at Mlddletown and
Franklin and the speaking time was
limited.
Chief Speech at Sandusky.
Cincinnati was reached at nearly 9
o'clock, an hour later than scheduled.
The Taft family was driven directly to
the residence of Charles P. Taft. from
where the campaign of the month of
September will be conducted.
The principal effort of the day of the
candidate was made at Sandusky. This
speech was preceded by addresses by
Representative Kiefer. General Corbln
and ex-Governor Herrlck. 1
.Kiefer's Shot at Bryan.
Representative Kiefer. the- first
speaker, took a parting shot at W. J.
Bryan by declaring:
"Yes. the people rule everywhere ex-,
cept In those states of the Union where
Democracy Is completely dominant."
General H. C. Corbln followed with.
a final exhortation for political energy
after which ex-Governor Myron T. Her
rlck spoke against a Government guar-,
antee of bank deposits.
Mr. Taft. In the beginning of hat
speech, referred to the panic of laafc
year. Confidence, he said, was a plant
of slow growth. The people of the coun
tryfarmers, laborers, capitalists were
all In the same boat. The investment of
money was. he said, necessary for the re
turn of prosperity and confidence.
He not only ridiculed Mr. Bryan's claim
to be the heir or the father of the Roose
velt policies, but delivered his own em
phatic pledge- after analyzing the more
Important policies, saying:

of the Assembly districts of New i'ork

primary elections today were dec'iledly
Interesting and decidedly contradictory.
According to figures obtainable lace to
night, six of the New York dlstrlc 0 cast
majorities for the renomlnatlon "of the
Governor, three against. All lot the
three Kings County districts cast decis
ive majorities against his renontlnatlon.
The Kings County totals shov? a net
vote of more than two to one against the
Governor.
All kinds of inferences were ifrawn to
night from the figures by advurates and
opponents of the Governor's nomina
tion. Chairman Timothy L. Woodruff,
of the Republican state com oilttee. de
clined to make any comment, at all to
night. Representative Herbert Parsons,
chairman of the Republican oounty com
mittee, who represents tins districts
where the test vote was taken, said to
night: "The vote shows there is a strong
Hughes sentiment among certain ele
ments that vote, the Republican ticket
and among others a bltte? opposition to
him. the opposition being ffn the foreign
born and tenement-house districts. In
the districts that Governor Hughes car
ried the delegates to the 'convention will,
of course, be for his rfynomination."
Mr. Parsons figured tjwt Mr. Hughes
will have 73 delegates om. of 787 in Man
hattan and The Bronx. , Chairman Jacob
Brenner, of the Kings ' County commit
tee, said that the fourr districts In that
county selected for 'the test were all
Democratic districts.
The districts In Ma-tvhattan selected for
the "Hughes test" ire presented a great
variety of political end National com
plexion, and the results were varied.

five-foot alley to the roof of an adjoining
building, and catching them on his arms.
The damage to the building is estimated
at 120,000.
