This -was In response to a plea of County Leader McCarren that the Brooklyn city and county tickets -were In had shape. "Everybody vote for me to cave the city." was the keynote of the Mayor's speeches. 3"he reception was admittedly frosty.

S.-The Central Armory, with a seating capacity of about WOO, was tonight completely filled with an enthusiastic audience, which gathered to hear a political address by Governor Jo soph W. Folk, of Missouri, in support of the 8tate Democratic ticket. He was in troduced by Mayor oJhnson, and spoke in part as follows: A political revival 1b going .on all over the tend against grafting. The people ot Phila delphia, New York. Buffalo, San Francisco And Cincinnati are fighting for their city and to regain the government" they hare lort. A wonderful revolution ho teen wrought la the conscience of mankind In the last four years. We had gotten to a point In thl coun try When patriotism meant little more than a word. A sew standard has been established. The remedy for corruption has been found In the hearts of the people. The grafter, as & rule, does not know good from bad; all he knows la polities; but he knows good politics from bad polities. When any number of individuals secure a monopoly on some necessity of life and exact irom the people more than the natural price. It is graft. Such is the trust. This graft is the outgrowth of the greater craft known as the protective arlff, by which a class are given special privileges whereby they can prey upon the rest of the people. A special privilege is at the bottom of every graft. No one ever heard ot a legislator be ing bribed to give equal rights to all. It is always for the purpose of obtaining some privilege or franchise for a few. To the ex tent that equal rights can be restored to all and the special privileges of the few taken away, Just to that extent will the Induce ments to corruption be lessened. TOJI BOOSTS FRIEXD JOE.
