TREND TO PARKER
Good News From New Jer-
sey, Montana, and Col
orado Reaches Dem
cratic Headquarters.

NEW YORK, Oct. I, 19O4-Judge
Parker returns TO Rosemount to-
day. It may be said with
confidence that his stay in
New York has been the most satisfactory
of any to the Democratic nominee. He
has received assurances from more var
led sources than at any time since the
campaign began, that the fight he is MAX
ing is by no means hopeless
Two months ago it was declared that
with the advent of October a trend to-
ward Democracy was expected to set in.
That this wave has made it's appearance
is now the firm belief of the Nssti6nal
managers.
Within the past three days they have
come to consider New Jersey as a prob
able electoral asset Today word was
brought to Judge Parker by Senator
Clark and former Lieutenanf Governor
spriggs that the labor element Of Mon
tana has declared for the Democratic Ma
ticnal ticket. Similar reports have come
from Colorado. New York is regarded
as much more likely to go Democratic
than Republican. Whatever may be the
real situation the -ouriers have brought
good tidings to the Seville.
Possibly these things have been re-
sponsible for the statement issued at Ma,

report that the railroads this year will
not contribute to the campaign funds. OF
either party. A prominent railroad man
connected with one of the principal
Western railroads called in to see the
sergeant-at-arms the other DAY and in
formed him that the road with which
he was identified had decided to elm
ipate the contribution this year
but how about the employees
asked Colonel Martin. ...Wal they be
permitted to vote as they please?'
The railroad man replied that he did
not believe that any of the roads would
use any coercion this election to force the
men to vote the Republican ticket. The
managers of the railroads declare that
they will remain perfectly neutral this
year and viii do nothing to influence the
vote of their men one way or another.
This news was received at the National
headquarters with a great deal of de-
light. This is but an instance Of the way
the sergeant4at-arms gets the real news
of the campaign before it even reaches
the inner circles of political advisors. But
Col. Martin keeps these condolences until
the news has reached the ears of his su-
periors The chief topic Of conversation
in the corridors of the hotels where Dem
ecrats tarry and chat over the situation
nowadays is as to whether or not Judge
Parker viii go ON the stump, and as to
the advisability of his doing so. The
opinion of nearly all of the New York
State leaders is that the Presidential
nominee ought TO accompany the Guber-
material candidate, Judge Her1iclS, on
tour of the State, and also make few
brief addresses in Indiana and Connect
cut. National Committeeman Norman E.
Mack, of Buffalo, has added his quota of
argament to the MANY other leaders,
when he visited Judge Parker on Mon
day, but Judge Herrick is looked upon as
the man who may be able to point out to
Judge Parker how he would gain many
votes for both National and State tickets
by getting out and letting the masses see
him, It will be definitely decided after
the conference this week between the
two judges

HasbroucS Hall was last night crowd
ed with Republicans who came from all
sections of the county to see and hear
Edward G. Stokes, the Republican candi-
date for Governor. The Bergen Repubh-
can Club marched to, the hall in body.
1Nha hall was elaiborately decorated.
There We're number of women in the
audience and considerable enthusiasm
was manifested. The meeting was called
to order by Chairman of the County
Committee Edward Fry. Mr.. Fry intro
duced Mayor Fagan as the presiding off
Ger. The Mayor made a short speech in
which he discussed the subject of equal
taxation, and pledged himself to fight for
it as a principle until III becomes an ac-
complished fact. He introduced Candi-
date Stokes as one whose ability and ex-
perienee made him the logical candidate
of the Republican party for the high po
sition of Governor.
Senator Stokes naturally devoted con-
Siderable time to somewhat evasive dis
cussion of the subject of equal taxation
His speech, though eloquent did not bear
| thla argllmentative weight of that of his
opponent, Charles G. sBEaek, delivered at
the Peoples Palace and the Catholic In
stute Tuesday night last. OF course, Mr..
Stokes for his part claimed aHt credit
for what has been accomplished in the
matter, regardless. Of Leon Abbegt's
great fight in that direction. When in
troduced he was cheered again and again
and when THESE died out he said that
evidently he was not in the enemy's
country: Hudson County Republicans

victory or defeat.
