that if the bill was passed they would have nothing to make a paramount issue in this campaign"
 Speech at Norwich
 Governor Roosevelt finished the second day of his New York State campaign in Norwich tonight, speaking to a large audi ence. He travelled today 15e miles and made fourteen speeches The entire trip today was an ovation, the crowds, in comparison to the population of the places, being espe- cially large. The three largest placest stop ped at today were Stamford, where he spoke in hall; Oneonta, where he ad- dressed g. large outdoor meeting, and at Bloomyille, where he said:
 T want to call your attention to a little incident that occurred last night in New York. think you can some times tell a man by the company he keeps. You can some times tell something about a candi- date by a people who are his most active supporters. There was 8 Bryan meeting last night in Cooper Union. At that meet ing the morning papers report that the peo- pie who were most enthusiastically cheered were Aguinaldo of the Philippines and Alt geld of Illinois. l think it was entirely proper to cheer one if you cheer the other It was entirely appropriate to cheer the illttu NIiO pdIuOIltu IilE dIldTCnlSls III IlllS country, and the man who has been strtk- ing at our soldiers on the other side of the earth. Now think of a party that relies on that kind of support, symboliEed by the men who cheered Altge1d and Aguinaldo. One of the speakers is reported to have spoken of Aguinaldo as a great apostle of freedom, and few months ago certain Bryanite alluded to h1m as a second George Washington You may not be familiar with Aguinaldo's history, so l will give it to you briefly"
 Continuing, Governor Roosevelt reviewed, as he has on several previous occasions, the action of Aguinaldo in accepting S400,0 from the Spaniards to cease hostilities and his subsequent action in resuming warfare against Spain. He then added:
 Now, gentlemen, think of party that Is reduced to championing that type of man. We are accused of trying to govern without the consent of the governed. Con sent of the governed-seif- government for those people-why, after We took Manila year ago last February, he issued through his secretary a proclamation, in which it was implicitly stated that every man, wo- man and child not d Filipino should be put to death. The statement was that all peo- pie, mind you, all people not Filipinos, should be exterminated without mercy. First, the army of occupation, and then all other people not Filipinos."
 Incidents of the Day
 At Otego, while the Governor ad- dressing his auditors, he referred to the fact that some of them wore the Grand Army button, and appealed to them to sup port the government in civil life as they had in the days of the civil war. One of his hearers remarked: Some of us were there who don't wear the button," here indicat- ing the lapel of his coat. You fought just the same" responded the Governor, and I doff my hat to you (making salute with his brodd-brimmed sombrero).
 MT Bryan proposes to abolish the army and at the same time to keep Europe off the Philippines. He would have his hands full
 At Unadilla the Governor had only pro- ceeded short way in his remarks when he was interrupted by shout of What is the matter with the trusts?"
 ''The ice trust?" queried the Governor.
 'There are other trusts; that is the only one you know In Oyster Bay" came back, but the Governor, evidently not hearing 1t, continued:
 That is an unusual remark for a Demo- crat to make in this campaign, my friends,'' and the crowd applauded.
 The Governor further said:
 Now, I have just been down through Kentucky. Everywhere I went I was hi- troduced on the platform by gold Demo- crats, once by silver Democrat and three times by ex-Confederate generals. Wherever I have been found Democrats supporting precisely as Republicans supporting us, because they feel that this IS not mere party contest. Such Democrats as the Union generals, Bragg of Wiscon- sin, Sckles and Franz Sigel of New York, and ex-Confederate soldiers like Buckner and Basil Duke. Some of those men In Kentucky who are standing with us today were not with us four years ago. They with us now because they find that in Ken lucky the right of personal liberty, which must undcrlie all free governments, is in- volved, and so we find not only gold Demo- crats. but silver Democrats with us.''
 At Sydney the Governor was interrupted by an individual who kept calling out "Hur- rah for Bryan" at intervals. Perceiving his condition, the Governor at first paid no at- tention to him, but finally remarked: "Our friend there Is not blgotedly sober man."
 At Norwich. Governor Roosevelt took an entirely new subject tonight touching most ly State legislat ton" Referring to his ef- forts in framing legisla tion for New York State, he said: q studied with interest what had been done in New Zealand. New Zealand tried very boldly number of ex- periments In dealing with corporate wealth But can tell you one State we only studied a little, because we found nothing in it. and that was Nebraska. They had had Populis- tic legislation there, and we found some leg islaton to avoid, but we did not find any thing the other way. l have strong hopes that Nebraska will go Republican this year, and if that happens I am willing to guaran- tee that two or three years hence we will find laws there affecting labor and corpor- ations which will be good for us to care- fully study in reforming our baws, but there is nothing there now"
