WON'T HEED PLATTS APPEAL.
Many Republicans In Herkimer County
Have Decided to Cut Odells Ticket.

LITTLE FALLS, N. Y, Oct. lO.-A great
many Republicans in this county have
received a letter from Senator Thomas c:
Platt, in which he makes a personal appeal
to his old friends to exert themselves in
behalf Of Higgins the Republican nominee
for Governor. At any other time the Re-
publicans of Herkimer county would be
only too glad to do as Senator Platt re-
quests, but when they take into considera-
ton the treacherous treatment Senator
Platt received from Governor-C Chairman
Odell and some OF his close political asso-
GATES, they shake their heads in opposition
to the instructions from the Senator.
The Herkimer county Republicans, those
who are hoping for the downfall of Odell
as a politician, and who seriously resent
Odells treatment of Senator Plat cannot
be driven into line to support the grocery
house ticket; in fact, they look upon the
letter received from Senator Plat as one
sent out by him at the earnest wish Of Odell
and some OF his colleagues. Senator Platt's
friends in this part Of the State outnumber
those OF the Governor-C Chairman three to
one, and the result OF the vote on election
day will demonstrate it. Republicans who
dislike very much to vote a split ticket,
particularly in a Presidential year, say
that while they sincerely hope for the cleo
ton OF Roosevelt and Fairbanks. they are
likewise deeply interested in the election Of
Herrick and Harrison, believing it will be
for the welfare Of the Empire State to crush
out Odellism.

HEAVEN: WHERE 1T is.
Expert Opinion by Edwin Markham and
Few Other Religious Views.

Edwin Markham addressed the Methodist
ministers yesterday on Some Of My Re-
ligious Convictions" One OF these con-
victions is that the miracles were mot mir
acles In the usual sense OF the word, but
evidences that Christ possessed knowl-
edge Of higher law, a higher natural law,
than we know"
Religion Mr.. Markham described as a
biological effect evidence OF the human
character rising above the brute. He
believes in punishment for sin, but said
that such punishment is not necessarily
something done to a man, but rather some
thing which comes to exist within man
as a result Of his sin.
Sin, he said, is another word for selfish
ness, and the essence OF selfishness can be
expressed in the phrase Il am it, while
the essence of the other extreme, the
Golden Rule, is .there are others
Heaven and hell MIR. Markham believes
In, but he said they are not necessarily
places to which Judge arbitrarily sends
mankind. He thinks rather that heaven
is place in which the unselfish. those who
tose.Ser nf It bens q impossible to feep bds
OF feather apart Heaven he pictured as
place Of activity even SURPRISING that OF
this world. The selfish and greedy are to
draw together, irresistibly, in another place,
hell.
Speaking OF the probable location Of
heaven, Mr.. Markham expressed the belief
that it is in the fourth dimension; all about
us, perhaps. He offered the ministers this
advice:
when a man asks you question which
you cannot answer, always reply by asking
one which he cannot answer. When a
friend asked me, Where Is heaven? You
talk about it as definite place; where 10 itf
l said That is a fair question and 1t is
one that would be naturally asked. But
before answer 1t, tell me where the world
l have seen him several times since. but
he has not again asked where heaven is.
After this Mr.. Markham read three OF his
poems.
