ALBANY GRAFT IS SCORED Nominee Promises to Sweep Corrup tion From State and Calls New Nationalism Menace to Na tion Platform Stated. THOMPSON. N. T., Oct. 12. Plant ing himself squarely, on the platform made by the Rochester State Conven tion. John A. DIx today formally ac cepted the nomination as the candidate of the Pemocratlp party for the office of Governor of New York. Herbert P. Blssell of Buffalo, the convention's presiding officer, noti fied Mr. Dix and the other candidates on the state ticket of their nomina tion. National Questions of grave im portance aside from questions of good government within the state. Mr. Bis- seu said, are involved in this election. In his speech of acceptance, Mr. Dlx promised if elected so give the people of the state a business administration. "There does not exist today," he de clared, "a human being who will deny that for years corruption has run riot in the official life of our capital. I do not know that It Is possible for any human agency to eradicate this evil entirely, but I do know that if I be come Governor of this state, I will turn on the searchlight and drive the black horse cavalry out of business. " Platform Is Told. Mr. Dlx said he favored home rule for cities and subdivisions of the state) downward revision of the tariff; state-wide system of direct primaries; state-wide uniform personal registra tion; popular election of United States Senators, and ratification of the income tax amendment to the Federal consti tution. 'But," said the candidate with em phasis, "I take a position resolutely and aggressively against attacks and assaults on the courts of the country. They are the very bulwarks of our free institutions. Any American who, occupying a position of anthorlty, or having the public ear, assails and at- tacks our courts, now, as they have always been, the seat of Justice and of equity, is to be regarded as a public enemy. New Nationalism Scored. 'Overshadowing all these questions and of most vital Importance to the people Is the menace offered to the va rious institutions of the country by the New Nationalism fathered and ad vocated by a new apostle of discord and dissension. "We have already had. to our cost. ample proof of his ability to disturb business, destroy values and create a condition of panic country-wide in its evil effects. But if, with all that, he s to be permitted to succeed in his campaign to weaken or destroy the powers of the Supreme Court of the United States, to take over to the cen tral government the powers reserved to the states, to substitute the will of the President for the will of the peo ple ss expressed through all the regu larly chosen officers of the .Federal Government and to set arbitrary bounds to what any man by ability and enter prise may legitimately secure, then all the sacrifices made by the founders of the Republic,' all the blood shed for ts preservation, will have been in vain. and we shall see in a time of profound peace a dangerous disturber bringing about the destruction of a free people against whom all the forces of the world In arms might have been hurled in vain." Beside Mr. Dlx, the other nominees were present at today's notification ceremonies. ROOSEVELT PRAISES NUN (Continued From Flrgt Page.) followed.

Bishop Hanlon's. on the shores of the great Victoria yanza Lake. Just un der, the equator. There I met one of I our fellow Americans, Mother Mary Paul, who was at the bead of the re ligious sisters of the establishment. They had already Deen in correspond- nce with me, saying 1 must not go through Africa without stopping and seeing their- mission, because she was the only American missionary in Ugan da, right in the heart of the Dark Continent. "So of course I stopped, and it was really like being suddenly brought home, for Mother Paul promptly gave me a message contained in a' letter she bad Just received from two Sew Tork policemen whom I had appointed on the force wnen i was ponce commis sioner. Mission Work Extolled. "Now the mission to which Mother Paul belongs is doing a striking and admirable work in Africa, and I promised her that I would publicly tell about this before some Catholic body and ask that the Catholics of the United States take an active Interest In this Catholic mission in mid-Africa, where such good work is being done by an American nun. Uganda Is one of the places where missionary effort has been signally successful. From personal knowledge I wish to bear hearty testimony to the good work done there by the Catholic missions.

We must never permit anything to make us deviate from tuis standpoint. Golden Rule Is Guide. "Perhaps I can give you my own theory In short form by telling you of a corre spondence I once had. Of course, in every church there are some . good men who are narrow (as well as some men who are narrow without being good), and one of these good narrow men. a Protestant clergyman, wrote me a letter of protest about my receiving Cardinal Satolli at the White House. "I wrote him back, saying that I had received the cardinal, Just as, for in stance, I had received bodies of German Lutherans and Welsh Methodists, and as I am expected to receive the Archbishop of Canterbury, and that I would hold my self to be a poor representative of the American people, an unworthy President if I failed to treat with good will and friendliness all good men, no matter what their religious faith might be, and then added that I could best explain my posi tion by saying that I believed our coun try would last a very long time, and if it did there would be many Presidents and some of these would be Catholics and some Protestants, and that I, as a Prot estant, wished to act towards my Catholic fellow citizens exactly as I hoped that a Catholic President would act toward his Protestant fellow citizens.

Cockran Extols Colonel. "Theodore Roosevelt is as true to the right as the needle is to the Dole." said Bourke Cockran. who for years was a Democratic member of tie House, In his speech. "He, himself, has said that he is not a great man," Mr. Cockran said, "and not a wise man. He need be neither. for the American people believe he is a good man." Mr. Cockran had been referring to the Ten Commandments. He d tell you you must not covet your neighbor's goods and he'd knock down any man who suggested it." he i continued. "Every cheer that greets him is an evidence of the passion of the devotion of the American people to Justice. That pouularity of his proves that tne love of Justice is implanted in every American heart." Mr. Littleton said that down in Washington they had "fired off cannon and fired everything except Balllnger." uoionei Roosevelt joined In the laughter and clapped his hands.
