Topeka, Kan. July 2.-As Gov. Roose-
day he was greeted by a continuous ana
hearty ovation The stops between Kan
sas City and Topeka were very brief, and
the Governor refrained from any eA>
tended addresses
AT every point the crowds were camor-
Gus for a speech, but were compelled to
be satisfied with a bow and smile, and
brief expression of the Governors pleas
ure at meeting them. With as many as
could be reached he invariably shook
hands. The applause was without limit,
and it appeared to come from people of
ali degrees of politics; IL was not so much

and the man
The Governor made speeches at Law
renee, Topeka, Usage City, Emporia. Flor
ence, Newton and Wichita. In Kansas
City, the instant the train stopped rush
was made for the platform to shake Gov.
Roosevelts hand, and it took the united
efforts of a score of policemen to keep
the crowd from degenerating into mob.
Several members of the Rough Rider
regiment attired in khaki. were among
hose at the STATEN, and to them the Gov
ernor gave an especially cordial greeting.
The crush about the car was terrible and
veral women tainted in the crowd.

ing to the Kansas City convention on the

the Ohio Congressman greeted each ether
very cordially and. in the course of
b. ief conversation, Gov. Roosevelt stated
it as his opinion that it would be impoli-
tic for the Democratic convention to
weaken on the silver question. THE peo-
pie do not like a gutter" was the way
tie Governor expires ed it. Mr.. Lsntz
conceded that il would weaken the party
to take any backward step on silver.
The crowd which greeted Gov. Roose-
welt at Wichita this afternoon broke the
record of his trip 50 far in point of num-
bers and enthusiasm Probably 10000 peo-
pie surged about the station. eager for a
glimpse of the famous Rough Rider. He
was presented to the crowd by Mayor Ross
of Wichita.
Gov. Roosevelt referred to the grounding
of the battleship Oregon "All over the
nation" said he, I'VE are watching to
see if the Oregon shall get off the rocks"
I'VE have got to do part of the worlds
work." he concluded work that can be
done only by the great word power. and
