ENDS AT BINGHAMTON
First Week Of ROOsevelt's Cam
paign In New York Closed.

Binghamton, n. Y, Oct. 29.-Completing
over 1000 miles Of travel and having
made over fifty speeches, Governor Roose-
welt finished the first week of his state
campaign in this city Saturday night
speaking at four meetings. The special
train was discarded by the party here
and hotel beds were adopted for resting
purposes. The four gentlemen on the train
who have assisted in entertaining the peo-
pie at various points, Walter ID. Elmer
son. ex-senator John Laughlin, James s.
Whipple and James Sheffield, presented
Governor Roosevelt with a pair of sleeve
links and a pin in commemoration Of his
birthday, Ard anniversary, Of which it
was.
At the big assemblages here the gov
ernor repeated many of the things he has
said at other points and in addition said:
1.-The paramount issue in this campaign
is Organism, and Organism means. in the
sphere Of civil honesty. Crokerism; in
finance, Pettigrewism: as regards liberty
est ballot, Goebelism; and, as regards our
foreign policy, Aguinaldoism.
said that it was better for Mexico that we
did not keep possession of the country
The United States never wished to keep
possession of Mexico, but let Mr.. Bryan
compare the progress that has been made
in New Mexico, which We did take. with
how it went on before, and he will speed
lily make up his mind that it has greatly
profited by being put under our flag. In
cidentally, If Mr.. Bryan viii look up the
history Of the territory of New Mexico
he will see that he need not be concerned
about Porto Rico. We governed New
Mexico at first exactly as we are govern
ing Porto Rico now. We gave largely a.
measure of self-government to its people,
Just as we have given such measure to
Porto Rico. For fifty years New Mexico
has been kept as a territory, yet Mr..
Bryan does not talk about consent OF the
governed in New Mexico. At matter
Of fact believe New Mexico should now
be made a state, but 1t would have been
folly to have admitted it to tatehood Tor
forty-odd years after we took possessi IN
In the same way, 1t would be folly now
TO administer the government of Porto
Rico save as we are actually administer
ing It. One Bryanite advocate the other
day quoted the elder Adams, a signer OF
the Declaration Of Independence, and the
first president after Washington, as an
anti-expansiOnist, but in reality Mr..
Adams in letter to Senator Quincy, Of
February 9, 1911, explicitly states that the
constitution admits of (tO use his own
words 'conquering by Kindness or force
alien territory
Jefferson showed by his actions that
he, the Trainer of the Declaration Of In
dependence did not believe that 1t forbid
acquiring the territory of Louisiana,

have acquired the Philippines The above

SPECULATIVE SPIRIT
Has Been Stimulated by Recent Gold
Imports.

New York. Oct. 29.-The increased re-
sources of the money market by gold
imports have stimulated a speculative
spirit in stocks which has been under
restrain for some time past, impressed
by the growing evidences of business re-
V1vaL The increased activity in the iron
trade, the large exports of cotton and
manufactures, the large circulation of
money and active trade and the high
level of railroad earnings go to encour-
age hope Of continued prosperity Spec
ulation is also discounting the increase
in business which is expected to follow
the election and which has been held up
as usual during a national campaign
Prices have been fiagrantly manipulated
during the week to afford higher profits
on professional buying on outside orders
and confirmation of numerous rumors
on which stocks were sold and the efforts
to realize profits on the rise have caused
a very irregular market. The demand
for bonds has also been largely aug
mented.

have beaten Denver easily If any ele-
ment of luck had favored them. How
ever, the boys have themselves to blame
to a certain extent in not securing q.
man who thoroughly understands the
game. The damage done by the two who
did of7ciate grew out of the fact that
they did not know the game more than
anything else.
The team left Denver Saturday night
for Colorado Springs where they play
the State college eleven on Tuesday. It
is hard to tell what the outcome of this
game will be as the Colorado Springs
team is thought to be stronger than the
D. A C. eleven and again by that time
the high altitude may affect the Wash

not as yet been crossed for touch

they can keep the State college eleven

BAN JOHNSON PLEASED.
President of American Ball League
Finds Situation Excellent

Finds Situation Excellent.
Chicago, Oct. 2e.-President Ban John
son, of the American league, has re-
turned from the east, where he has been
doing some prospecting for the coming
season. He has been looking over the
situation in Washington and Baltimore,
and it is now certain it is said that
American league teams will be placed
in those two cities. 1t was also reported
that he has been looking over the ground
in Philadelphia, but when questioned
on the latter proposition Mr.. johnson
was noncommittal.
President Johnson said that the whole
situation would be probably cleared up
inside of three weeks. He will call a.
meeting of the circuit committee for
next Monday, and after the meeting
the committee, made up of Jimmy Man
ming of Kansas City. Charles Comislcey
OF Chicago, c. w. Somers Of Cleveland,
with himself. will leave for the east to
finally settle upon the circuit.
Everything was lovely in Baltimore"
said Mr. Johnson I'VE had a confer
ence with McGraw and Robinson, and
although I am not at liberty to say what
transpired. I can assure you that both
men are likely to be with the American
league should we decide to locate in Bal
timore and you can put it down for
g certainty that we will have two east
ern cities, and perhaps three Phila-
delphia? Perhaps. 1t will be known in
two or three weeks. AS to our alliance
with any league or visionary organiza-
ton, that is all bosh''
