crnl building wore ripped off.
Pinto glass window of the big
shops wero blown 111. Goods and
dressmaker models displayed In
the windows wero whisked out
Into the street by the wind.
Passing omnibuses rooked llko
ehipa on u. alormy aea to the terror
of passengers. Two of these hugo
automobile were stopped and
driven buckwarda by tho force of
the wind.
Housea exposed to tho full shock
of the Mtorm shook as If being
rocked by a small earthquake.
Tha wind lifted off a largo part
of the roof of the Labor Exchange
and dropped It Into the street,
which fortunately had been almost
emptied of people previously by
tho heuvy rain, the glus dome Of
tho CoIIcko of Music crashed In to
the ularm of 40 pupil who escaped
Injury. Signs hanging over tho
street were torn off by the hun

American Individualism 1 that
there shall be no domlnntlon by
any group or combination in this
republic, whether It bo business or
political. On the contrary. It de
mand economic Justice, n well as
political and oc!nl Justice."
- Tho Republican Htandard-benrcr
explained that he felt deeply on
tht subject because during the war
he had some practical experience
with governmental operat.on and
control, adding that he had wit'
neaxed not only at home but abroad
many failures of government In
buRineaa.
"I have neen ita tyrannies, its In
Justice. Ita deatructlon of self
government. Ha undermining of the
very lnntlnct which carry our
pcoplo forward to progre," he
aald. "I have witnessed the lark
of advance, the lowered atnndards
of living, the depressed Hplrlt of
people working under aucil a sys
tem."
Confidence Voiced
Twice during the strenuous May
that preceded hia appearance at the
Garden the Republican candidate
gave voice, to his firm belief that
over-confidence alono could bar a
Republican victory at the poll.
The first came at a press confer
ence, whero he departed from hi
customary procedure and permitted
hi remark to be quoted.
Shortly afterward, in a talk to
national and New York stale Re
publican worker, the nominee
made hia aecnnd declaration of con
fldence, coupled with a reminder
that the duty of theae lender was
to see that every Republican voter
reached the poll and that the bal
lot was honestly conducted.
"We have not in a quarter of a
century witnessed uch unity with
in our own rank aa we see this
day throughout the whole land,"
he said.
