ATTJCA. " " November 1.-The first
s+on OF the Roosevelt train to-day was
made at Batavia, at which place the train
was a little behind time. The Governor
said:
..rhere are many great issues at stake
in this campaign But there are issues
which surpass even these because they
CONCERN the durability OF the Republic it
self. Beyond all other issues are the IS
sues OF orderly liberty under the law
and OF civic honesty.
Mr. Bryans chief lieutenant, Mr..
Croker, represents the forces which stand
for civic dishonesty, and now they openly
champion the cause of riot. Of mob Vio-
lence, of upsetting by force or fraud,
the verdict rendered by the people 1t the
polls. Without any rebuke or repudia-
zion from Mr. Bryan, and with the open
" expressed encouragement and approval
of Senator Jones, who is running Mr..
Bryan's national canvass, Mr.. Croker has
now twice in open statement excited the
ignorant the violent and the lawless to
open riot on election-day, next tuesday.
HE has done this in so many words,
with the approval, tacticly expressed. OF
the national leaders of his party. Such
advice IS a fitting sequence to the way in
which the members of his party have for
the last six weeks been conducting their.
campaign.
