the financial support Of the best Germans. In
getting the league started we have had in

is for the city Of New York. Although IL might
be said We have only Just started, already we

and i Is only In Richmond that We yet lack
complete organization. This shows what Is
being done IN the city Then in the State we
have started organizations in all the pHn-
opal cities. We have q very competent man
whose duty II Is 10 travel through the State and
get the Germans organized in behalf Of MCKin-
ley and Roosevelt. In the Western States we are
very anxious 10 complete our organization and
we have an excellent man for this work who

Germans love Carl Schurz, yet he has made
many political mistakes. The reasons for his

The managers NJ the league. Mr. Won Briesen

sIeasers out West and arrange for German
