Parker Stock Is Up

One of the most striking instances Of
the appreciation of Judge Parker's
letter of acceptance was its reception
in Wall Street. Brokers who had been
betting on the outcome Of the election,
offering long odds in favor Of Roose-
welt, after reading the letter prepared
by Judge Parker, reduced the odds
they had been giving and Parker stock
went up materially.

Representative Gooch, of Kentucky
There can be but one opinion con-
corning Judge Parker's letter Of ac-
cepiance. 1t is a strong, manly, dig
nitied statement, free from persona!
abuse, explicit on every issue before
the people and lodging none. 1t ought
to win the party thousands of votes,
and in my opinion it will. 1t should
only be necessary to put into the hands
of the non-partisan voter copy Of
Roosevelts vainglOriOus letter and
then that of Judge Parker. l can
hardly see how any American citizen
