ODELL CALLS HELP! HELP
National Committee Besousht to Come
Into the State Campaign.

Govern or Chairman Odell is already fear
ing that he may not be able to win the
State with the candidate he made the Re-
publican convention at Saratoga nominate
for Governor. Mr.. Odell has appealed to
Chairman Cortelyou Of the Republican
national committee for help. He has asked
Mr. Cortelyou to centre as much as possible
his entire strength on this State and to exert
his influence to get some members OF the
Cabinet to speak in this city at some OF the
mass meetings which are being arranged.
Seemingly Governor-C Chairman Ode!l is
not 80 sure of his ground as he was some
months ago, when he CURLY told the Presi-
dent that he was thoroughly able to look
after the State.
One of the biggest meetings of the cam
paign to be held in this city will be one
which will take place at Madison Square
Garden under the auspices Of the Repub-
lican Club. The date OF the meeting has

with that those who saw him had to be con-
tent. If neither OF the two Secretaries can
bt obtained it is proposed to try to induce
Ei.hG Root TO take their place.
That Mr.. Odell realizes that he has a
big job ahead Of him to elect his man is
shown by the elaborate preparations which
are being made to stump the State. By
next week there will be 200 spellbinders
despatched to all parts of the State. Secre-
tary of Agriculture Wilson and Senator
Thurston have promised to make a tour
through the State together. They will

SENTIMENT IN MONTGOMERY.
II Is for Jerome, Francis Burton Harrison
or Shepard for Governor.

AMSTERDAM, N. Y, Sept, l9.-Tho Morn
ING Sentinel tomorrow will say editorially:
I'VE feel that the nomination Of John B.
Stanchfleld for Governor, or for any state
office in fact, by the Democratic State
convention at Saratoga to-day would be a
political blunder. We believe we are voic-
Ing the best Democratic sentiment in this
part Of the State. If the nomination Ia to
20 to a metropolitan candidate an excel
lent choice could be found either In Har-
rison. Jerome or Shepard. either OF which
would find hearty indorsement OF the
party in Montgomery county.
The Montgomery county delegates to
the State convention departed for Sara
toga this afternoon, accompanied by Elmer
j. Finehout, chairman Of the county COM
mittee, and many other leading Demo-
Gratis. John j. Turner Of this city, the
head Of the delegation, said this afternoon
to THE SUN correspondent that he was
inclined to think that Edward NJ. Shepard
OF New York city would make a very for
midable nominee, but that he was friendly
disposed toward District Attorney Jerome
OF New York, believing that he could be
elected.
Representative Francis Burton Harri-
sons visit to Amsterdam last week has
aroused much admiration for him, and
many Of the Democrats who to-day went
to Saratoga will become enthusiastic boom
ers OF his candidacy.

WAYNE COUNTY FOR JEROME.
With Him rs Nominee Democrats Believe
They Can Reduce HigEins's Majority.

LYONS, N. Y, Sept 19.-The delegates
from Wayne county TO the Democratic
State convention are all in favor of William
Travers jerome for Governor. Demo-
cratic sentiment is entirely for jerome.
If nominated he will poll the solid Demo-
cratic vote OF the county, and in addition
will cut deeply into the Republican vote.
Wayne county has always been strong
Platt bailiwick. The voters, especially the
Changers have been intensely anita gonistic
to Odell and all that his na me stands for.
Woodruff was the popular candidate for
Governor and the manner in which he
was turned down by Odell, as well as the
treatment accorded Senator Platt by the
Governor Chairman has made many Re-
publicans warm under the collar: The
nomination OF Higgins is taken to be the
nomination Of Odell under another name
and the election Of Higgins to mean a con-
tinuation of Odellism, with Newburg as
the base Of supplies.
Wayne county gave Nick inley 4,&6
majority over Bryan in 1895 and $40 in
1900. The most optimistic Repu blican gave
Roosevelt only $500 majority this year
with Woodruff running for Governor. Now
that Odellism is an issue it Is not believed
that Higgins will carry the county by over
2, 900, and his being on the ticket will seri-
ously endanger Rooeevelts chances Of
carrying the county by much over that
amount Jerome will poll fully 500 Repub-
lican votes in the county il nominated.

paign, the Election OF Roosevelt.
WASHINGTON. Sept. I9.-After an absence
OF several weeks In Wisconsin and New
England, Postmaster General Payne re-
turned TO his official duties to-day. He
will remain here until winter. Mr.. Payne
was not inclined to talk politics to-day,
although he expressed himself as gratified
with Republican prospects.
Il can see but one result, the election OF
Roosevelt" he said. "The Democratic
campaign seems to have fattened out.
MIR. Payne spent a short time In Wis
consn. where Republican factionalism
continues to rage without any hope OF a
compromise. The Stalwarts, with which
faction the Postmaster General Is identi-
fed, have announced that IL the State Su-
preme Court declares the La Toilette ticket
to be regular" Cook, the Stalwart candi-
date, will retire from the race. La Fol,
lette, on the other hand has openly declared
that he will remain in the field, whatever
the decision OF the court.
A bombshell was recently exploded in
the La Toilette camp, and, according to re-
ports from Wisconsin, it's moral effect Is
certain to be widespread. Two hundred
representative La Toilette men addressed a
letter to Chairman Cortelyou of the Re-
publican national committee informing him
that II the court decides that the Cook
ticket is regular they will support Cook
diction they will abide by the highest party
authority, the Chicago convention, which
seated the Stalwart delegates-at-large.
No development in party affairs in Wis
consin has created such sensation as this
manifesto Of these La Toilette supporters.
They say plainly that they will support the
Governor only in the event that the court
decides that his ticket Is regular

that with a good strong candidate they
can crush Odellism in the State. The
principal thought, though. Is that all Of
the country delegates believe firmly that
Jerome could win, and they are not 30 sturdy
in their confidence that any other candidate
can win. But political leaders, who are
always looking backward and never for
ward. harp upon the statement that Jerome
favors the Sunday opening OF saloons in
New York city and that the Me thodists
and Republicans in the up-country districts
who swig whiskey behind barn doors would
hurt Jerome. Then Jerome, it was solemnly
asserted, had not favored Mr. Bryan in
1895 and 1900, and Mr.. Bryan. it seems,
Ia still factor in the State OF New York.
Well, Mr. Shepard did not favor Mr.. Bryan
in either OF these two national contests.
Stanchfield was wabbling at one time in
the campaign OF 1895, but he got around
to 10 to 1 all right. Nothing is said about
Mr.. Hills attitude in 1895 and 1900, yet he
remains the Democratic leader OF the
State.
BRYAN VOTERS MUST BE APPRAISED, SAYS
HILL.
1t Is rather amusing to see Mr.. Hill and to
hear his discussions as to whether this can
didate or that candidate favored Mr. Bryan
in 1895 and 1900. The Bryan voters must be
appeased according to Mr.. Hill, they must
be coddled. Bryan was good enough to
kill in 1895 and 1900 according to Mr.. Hills
political doctrine, but Bryan's friends in
this approaching State campaign must be
embodied to the heart. Taffy should be
given them. Mr.. Hill wants their votes

fort TO witty the project has been made
by those inclined 10 help the colonists
recover from the blow they received
when their leader, Salvatore ComingIio

abandoned chem. He ran away after
being unable TO live up to his contract

and that many of them are in actual
want.
The originator OF the plan 10 colonizs
the Italians at New Palermo, and the
