COMES OUT OPENLY IN SUPPORT
OF EDITORS CANDIDACY
FOR GOVERNOR.
ROOTS SPEECH WIDELY CIRCULATED
HIS ATTACK ON HEARST MAILED
TO EIGHT HUNDRED THOU
SAND VOTERS.

New York, Nov. 3.-Any doubt that
may have existed as to the attitude of
William Jennings Bryan toward the
candidacy Of William Randolph Hearst
was removed during the day when
Bird S. Coler, president of the borough
of Brooklyn, gave out portion of a
letter from William J. Bryan saying
that the Nebraskan is very anxious tt?
see Hearst elected" This endorse
ment of Mr.. Hearst was made public
with Mr.. Bryans consent.
The cablegram sent by Richard
Croker, the old Tammany leader, to
Senator McCarren of Brooklyn and
in the Freeman's Journal continues to
excite much comment. Charles F.
Murphy, the present Tammany leader,
when asked what effect he thought
the cablegram and interview would
have upon the coming state election
said he did not think that either they
or the speech delivered by Secretary
Of State Root at Utica would change
more than few votes.
Charles E. Hughes, the Republican
candidate for governor, is on the last
stage OF his last up state tour. Mr..
Hearst spent rather a quiet day on
account Of the serious condition Of
his throat as result OF the many
speeches which he has delivered dur
ing the past few days.
The Republican state committee has
begun to send out through the mails a
small pamphlet containing extracts
from the speech of Secretary of State
Elihu Root at Utica. Approximately
100000 copies will be sent out imme-
diately.
