There was much spontaneous but good-natured cheering for Hryan In the first outburst and Mr. Taft, who had Just besrari to' -speak, remarked, drily: "Mr..B:yaii has bven'runnlng for the Presidency for 12 years.

(Continued from First P ) and in fact almost everywhere outside of New- York City. His hearty indorsement of Taft and hi -unselfish, 'course In ne glecting his own campaign In New York In order to iKlp -Tad In doubtful states, has had a wonderful good effect, and the time mill come iflien Mr. Hughes will In probability reap the benefit of his possible sacrifice this Fall. "There Is no d.-ny'.ng the fact in the minds "of many md.-r.rnd.-nt voters, Hughes istoday the strosg'st mar before the public, and among those wno think that way, Hughes' entreaty on" behalf of Taft is entirely effective - Roosevelt's Work ' Effective. Arajr.g fSe IndVpend'nt voters are still oth M wiio have been won over by Presi dent; RosTelt. The fact that the Presi dent' publicly vouches for Taft. and rec ommends his election because he feels conftd nt that .Taft wlU continue faithful:)- the woflUof Tiis present administra tion., will hold In the Republican column mart: vffrrs "who, were It not - for the Presjd-ntaciivity. might cast their bal lots .for'.ftrysm- This Republican trend among ft.'tfep.ina'ont voters may therefore b frlhi;i. .1 '.'ke to the, .efforts of Mr. Taft," -Mrn-i nor Hughe - and" President Roosevelt, each working In his own way, but all to a common end. No one would undertake to deny that Bryan will receive the votes of a great many, laboring men who voted for Roosevelt four years ago. ' Bryan, throughout the campaign, has made especial effort to win the labor vote, and In this he has had the co-operation of Samuel Gompers. Gompers. of course, will fall down In his attempt to "deliver" the labor -vote, air a -wholer to Bryan, but he will be able to influ ence many laboring men, union men, who might normally cast Republican ballots. Taft's attitude towards labor has been grossly misrepresented, and there are many who will not be set right, or who will not permit themselves to be set right before ejection day. Some will vote against Taft because of mis understanding; others through preju dice formed early In the -campaign. But what promised to be a general stampede among laboring men, ap pears to have been checked, and Bryan will probably make few gains among this class between now and election. Labor Vote Split. The fact that President Roosevelt has conferred with labor leaders and persuaded them to "get busy" in Taft's Interest, has . been Instrumental . In checking this stampede: the honest, straightforward recital by Mr. Taft of his- attitude and record toward labor has convinced many of the more in telligent the thinking class, and the further assurance of Governor Hughes and other prominent Republican lead ers that Taft Is labor's friend not its enemy, has had a beneffcial effect. It is ' true, Taft will lose labor votes, many of them, but not nearly so many as seemed probable a month or even two weeks ago. The worst Is over; the situation as regards the labor vote is rapidly Improving. One other thing will check the trend of labor votes to Bryan; that Is the activity of the Socialists and the Hearstites. Debs is - bound to get thousands of labor votes that ordinar ily would be cast for Bryan, and His gen, of the Independence League, will get still other thousands, particularly In New York and In other cities where Hearst newspapers have wide circula tion. From recent Inquiries, It appears that the Republican leaders have been needlessly 'alarmed about the colored vote. It is true that some negro lead ers, particularly at the opening of the campaign, made a loud outcry against Taft, and all manner of threats were hurled at the Republican leaders. But the average negro voter has refused to allow himself to become excited overt the Brownsville affair; he has been'thinklng things over as the cam paign has progressed, and has about decided that his interests He with the Republicans. . Negro Vote Tnchanged. ' Certainly he has nothing to gain through the election of Bryan, for that would bring Into power the party that disfranchises the negro, and the colored man would much rather retain his vote than throw It away In what he believes might be a vain attempt to restore to the Army a small number ot colored soldiers, many of whom, at least, were deserving of the treatment they received at the hands of Presi dent Roosevelt. In the doubtful states, where a large colored vote Is cast. It is found that but slight change will take place among the dusky voters on November S; most of them, as .usual, will be Republicans. The attempted stampede failed. Ia almost every campaign Republicans have patched up factional differences be fore election day, and the old rule holds good in the present fight, save in Ohio, where there is still danger. In Wiscon sin, in West Virginia, in Illinois and in Indiana factonal differences have been compromsed, and the National ticket is getting the support of both sides. Even in Iowa, where factional feeling runs high, the opposing clans are equally loyal to Taft, and that state, though it may elect a Democratic Senator, is strongly and safely for Taft. Naturally this ad justment of factional troubles has helped the Republican situation, and has made doubtful states safely Republican. Bryun Shows Strength. Before the present campaign opened that is. Immediately after the two tick ets had been named Republican leaders very generally believed that Bryan would be as easily defeated as he was In 1S!6 and In llXJO; indeed, there was a prevalent feeling that he would run no better than did Judge Parker in 19W. But, when the fight really opened, and It became evi ednt that Bryan, instead of being weak er, was stronger than ever, the Republi cans changed their tactics, and became the aggressors. The wisdom of their time ly change Is now apparent. Had the cam paign been w'aged on the plans originally laid down, Taft would have been defeat ed. President Roosevelt was the first to Bee the fallacy of the original plan of campaign, and It was largely through his efforts that methods were changed. De velopments have shown that his political Judgment is as keen as ever. Much of Mr. Bryan's-present strength Is due to the fact that the United States Senate, during the coming four years, will be certainly Republican. That means that his administration, should he be elected, must necessarily be one of inaction. With a hostile Senate, Bryan could not put through any of the great reforms he has promised. His hands would be tied, save us lie might operate under .the existing laws. But in a legislative sense his would be a stagnant administration. The fact that the Senate will be Re publican, thus preventing the enactment of radical laws, has opened the way for a few cantankerous anti-Roosevelt Re publicans to drift into the Democratic party. That fact has also made It pos sible for many gold Democrats, who voted against Bryan in 1896 and 1910. to get back into their party and give Bryan their support this Fait The number of votes Bryan will gain from this one cause, if they could be accurately esti mated, would be astonishing, and. Inci dentally, If the State of Maryland should go Democratic this Fall, it will be solely due to the fact that the Senate will re main Republican for the next four years. Viewed In Different Light. Not all gold Democrats who will vote for Bryan will do so for the reason Just set forth; some regard him as a less rad ical and broader-minded man than ap pealed to them on the silver issue. They see in him a changed man: an older and a wiser man. better equipped than the Brvan of eight and twelve years ago to hold the Presidential reins. It is due to change among this class, as well as the other, that Bryan is stronger than ever before. But for all that, many old-time Democrats, business men particularly, still view with distrust the man who changes his policies and his convictions with every campaign: though he may be improving, they still regard him as un safe. And this element among old Dem ocratic voters will line up for Taft. If Taft holds thos states which he now dominates: that Is, If he maintains his present strength to the end of the cam paign, he will be elected. But Mr. Taft, is not content to hold his present strength. He Is determined, if possible, to add to it. and with that end In view he and his managers will devote much of their at tention during the closing weeks of the campaign to states that are still In doubt, and even to states that are known to lean towards Bryan. Taft Is not satisfied to win: he wants to win with the biggest possible majority. Tie Game at Hood River. HOOD RIVER. Or.. Oct. 17. (Spe cial.)

SHEARN OUT FOR GHANLER S SGALP Independence Party's New York Candidate Puts Gin ' ger in Campaign. HUGHES' NAME ELIMINATED Struggle In Empire State Charae trlzed by Sizzling Political Ep- ' ithets Editorial Writer Calls Hearst Welcher. BY LLOYD F. LONERGAN. NEW YORK?, Oct. 17. (Special.) The only candidate for Governor to make an old-time campaign Is Clarence J. Shearn, the nominee of the Independence League. Governor Hughes has been roaming around through the Central West, mak ing speeches for Taft. His associates on the ticket, so far as anybody can tell, are in their respective homes, comfortably resting. Anyhow there Is no report of passionate oratory on their part. Lieutenant-Governor Chanler Is enjoy ing a leisurely tour of the various State Fairs, with an occasional night perform ance In an upstate city. Mr. Chanler is not an orntor, and his remarks are main ly confined to that dear Old chestnut, "I am glad to meet you, and I hope you are glad that I am glad to meet you." But Mr. Shearn is of different caliber. "Mr. Dooley" told of the young man who once ran against Alderman William J O'Brien, and of him he said. "He talked everywhere. It got so finally that when he came home, as he did every few days, the family would hide In the woodshed." And Mr. Shearn Is full of oratory and enthusiasm, and somebody apparently has staked him to a private car and a bunch of mileage books. Night after night the wires sizzle with the words that come over them from League meet ings In various cities. Mr. Shearn has spoken In Rochester. He has made Rome (New York) howl; the farmers of Steamburg. Chautauqua County, have heard a voice crying out In the wilderness; loud shouts disturbed the quietude of Racquette Lake, up In the Adirondacks, and the wail of the "common people" has deeply affected the bovine residents of Quogue far out on Long Island. And still the verbal fireworks are set off nightly. Off Again, On Again. Mr. Bhearn appears on. the field of bat tle "supported by a strong cast." The candidates for Lieutenant-Governor, Controller, Treasurer. Attorney-General. Secretary of State and even the felate Engineer and Surveyor are with Mm at times, but generally, after a few days they drop out exhausted, to rest a while, and then they gallantly plunge into the fray again. The nominee fop Governor, however. Is never exhausted, never out of voice and never out of word Night after night he takes the center of the stage, and. In the full glare of the calcium tells what he will do when he is elected. Mr. Shearn is devoting most of his vocal bombshells to an attack on "Fort Chanler." He called the tail Lieutenant Governor a traitor, a turncoat, a "Bene dict Arnold" and a "tool of Murphy and Conners." "Chanler will trade a party for a nom ination, and any principle he has ever advocated for a bunch of votes." says Shearn. "It did not embarrass him at all to portray Judge Parker as a Standard Oil tool one year, and the next have Judge Parker notify him of his nomina tion; nor to denounce Bryan as a moun tebank and a faker one year, and the next proclaim him as our country's greatest statesman. "He can plaster the administration of Governor Hughes with fulsome eulogy at the County Fairs, and then go out ou the L stump and hold It up to scorn and ridi cule. "This willingness to stand for any kind of cause, as per retainer, may go In criminal courts where Chanler has prac ticed law, but such qualities are not wanted by the people in their Governor and chief magistrate." Governor Hughes does not figure. In the battle plans of the League. Occa sionally he is called " a corporation law yer" and a "narrow-minded bigot," but that Is only from force of habit, and really does not mean anything. . For while Hearst Is not anxious to see Hughes elected, he Is emphatic in ex pressing a wish that Chanler be defeated. And if, In the last hours of the cam paign he is convinced that the fight will be close, the League will turn over to Hughes such votes as its leaders can control. The present desire of the new party Is to hold the balance of power and be able to claim that the Democracy would have triumphed had It secured the support of the Independence League. The funny part of the whole affair Is that Shearn actually believes he will be elected. If he Is sacrificed at the last moment to make a Hughes holiday, It will be without his knowledge '.or con sent. Conduct Whirlwind Campaign. Two "flying wedge" companies, com posed of men said to be prominent labor unionists, are touring the state amid great excitement. The "number one" organization Is roaming about the North ern tier of counties, while the "number two" aggregation la playlngIght stands In Westchester and Duchess counties. Each Is In charge of a "manager," who in happier days Is a reporter on the New York American. And these "managers" drag out their lives In sor row, counting the hours until the polls open and they will be free. "You cannot imagine what we are compelled to endure," said one manager during a few hours lay-off in Manhat tan. "Each of my performers thinks he Is a star, and I have trouble to keep them satisfied. The only solution up to date has been to 'feature' one man in one town and at the next stand to play up somebody else. "And some of our Jumps hava been frightful," he added mournfully. "How would you like to have a troupe at Buf falo Monday and Just as you were pre paring to go to Syracuse for Tuesday, receive word that your presence was de sired that evening at Binghamton and kindly explain' why you were in Buf falo Monday, when your actors had been expected by the voters of Schenec tady? This traveling life is not what it Is cracked up to be." The Democratio managers are begin ning to realize that the League's fight Is directed entirely at Bryan and Chan ler. and that it is doing damage to the cause, whereat they are directing a few blasts at Hearst and a merry time Is in prospect. Says Hearst Is a Welcher. . Willis J. Abbott. Bryan's warm friend, and a former editorial writer on the New York American, charges over his own signature that Hearst is a welcher. In a signed letter to the Chicago Tribune which Is being sent out as a campaign document here, he says In part:.- "After Hearst said In his editorial two or three days ago he had contributed, or duplicated, dollar for dollar, all con tributions made to the 1S96 fund, he did not tell the literal truth. To be entirely frank about t. be 'welched.' He did make a liberal contribution to the cam paign fund. He did promise that for every dollar sent to the National com mittee he would give another. But when there came m some contributions of $500 and of 11000, he notified the con tributors his purpose was only to du plicate the small contributions, not the large ones. "It happened I had charge of tabulat ing these contributions and was directed to write the editorial in which Mr. Hearst explained he could Bot, or would not, carry out either the letter or the spirit of his proposition. No one was more ready than he to give a dollar out of his multi-millionaire store to match a dollar, none more quickly stopped con tributing when any one else proffered a thousand dollars. This is mere history, and it is up to Mr. Hearst to specify whether or not it Is accurate history. If ho questions my recollections -I can refer him to a certain editorial In his own paper." " , Sarcasm for Hearst. The New York World, In an editorial headed "In Defense of Mr. Hearst," arises to remark: "It can be readily demonstrated that such, epithets as 'turncoat' and 'trim mer' cannot be applied with literal truthfulness to William Randolph Hearst. "For when Mr. Hearst, after first put ting Mr. Murphy In convict stripes, cor dially accepted Mr. Murphy's indorse ment for the Governorship, he was turn ing Mr. Murphy's coat, and not his own. When he transformed fighting into fus ing with Mr. Parsons and his party, he was trimming Mr. Parsons transitively, and not himself trimming intransitively. When he supported Mr. Bryan through two Presidential campaigns and now rends him limb from limb, he is not 'putting personal ambition above party principles;' he is merely putting party ambition above personal principles." All of which indicates that the Democ racy does not approve of the activity of Mr. Hearst and his organization. MAKE WAR0N OUTLAWS Baseball Commission Backs. Coast League Suspends Two Teams. CHICAGO.. Oct. 17. (Special.) All Na tional agreement ballplayers who Have played against the Logan Square team were suspended by the National Com mission today at a meeting of that body In the office of President Ban Johnson of the American League. This edict hits members of the Washington American League team and the White ox men en gaged against Callahan's team this after noon and the Minneapolis team. Several cases of players' claims for salaries and other masters were disposed of and several postponed until the Jan uary meeting. President Cal. Ewing, of the Pacific Coast League, appeared before the Com mission and complained that the organi zation was being harassed continually by outlaws and that it was not getting the protection it ought to get. The Com mission decided to hold a meeting in Chi cago November 10, to devise ways and means of fighting the outlaws of the California League and to give the Pacific Coast League every support possible. BURROUGHS HAS ALIBI Was In Salem When Sheriff Brown Was Allied, ., SALEM, Or., Oct. 17. tSpeclal.) That the confession of A. S. Burroughs, charging Ed Mizener with being che murderer of Sheriff Brown, In Baker County; is false, is proved by the fact that Mizener was In Salem at the time Brown was killed with dynamite. Mizener is a decorator, and was work ing in the State House on the day Brown was killed. A few days after the killing he removed to Portland, having completed his work here. Mizener was formerly Police Judge at Baker, was a foe of the gambling element and was therefore in sym pathy with Brown's campaign against that class of people. ' The Portland city directory shows that Ed Mizener, a painter, lives at 60 East Thirty-first street North, but this Mizener has been out of the city for several weeks.
