Ex-Governor of New York SAYS

CRITICISM OF ROOSEVELT
MANAGEMENT OF THE CAM
PAlGN JASMINE"

New York Nov. BIB b. Odell. of
Newburgh, former governor and ex-chair-
man Of the state Republican committee,
said today that the management of the
Republican state campaign was 1.-The most
aSiniDe' that he ever knew. The whole
state ticket. he said. might just as well
have been elected. As the result stands
il looks like a Democratic victory and
leaves the Republican party in bad shape
with national campaign coming on.
The Republicans, he declared. made no
campaign at ALL but put il all on Mr.
Hughes shoulders
Simply Wasn't in IL.
Il heard absolutely nothing about any
state campaign UP my way" said Mr.
Odell- We didn't know there was
headquarters down here. l wasn't in
formed or anything that was going on.
MY advice was never asked once. Many
OF my friends all over the state have the
same experience.
Even when Mr.. Hughes was touring
my county 1 was not notified or con-
suited. L wasn't informed of the smallest
details
Continuing. Mr.. Odell said:
Hurt by Roosevelt.
THE people of this state have always
resented the interference of a president
of the United States in their local cleo
OF Dewitt Clinton. I think that the in
reference of President Roosevelt did
more harm than good
Il do not wish to appear in the role OF
general critic of the conduct of the cam
paign, but so far as l can make out.
there was no real campaign. No use was
made of the record of the Republica n
party 1t was all a case of personalities
between the candidates for governor"
Hearst a Factor.
Mr.. Odeil said that Mr.. Hearst was
greatly strengthened as political factor
not be elected president. he was now
man to be reckoned with in the future
He said that a combination of Bryan and
Hearst would be hard one for the Re
publicans to beat
Il believe" said Mr.. Odell. that with
Intelligent management the entire Repub-
lican state ticket could have been elected
| am not knocking but j am very much
concerned for the future of the Repub-
lican party.
I believe that by the exercise of mu-
tual forbearance and consideration the
Republican party can be put i'm shape to
make a successful campaign in 1903"

Tried to Start Strike.

An effort was next made TO inaugurate
a strike and prevent the men from work
ing under Mr.. Lavelle. 1t is also claimed
that in carrying out this idea Pillsbury
attempted 10 induce Packard to quit his
position. and when he refused made the
unwarranted attack upon him. Pillsbury
Christensen and the others who were i'm
picated in the affair, were arrested and
lodged in the police station where they
refused to give out any statement con-
corning the trouble.

Another Case of Assault.

This incident was only one of two that
occurred in the yards last night as the
result of interference on the part of ex-
employees. who went there evidently for
the purpose of creating trouble. 1t is
probable that the two fights will be
linked together as supplying motive for
the assault upon Packard. The first Oc-

RHVIVES OLD MEMORIES
FIRST PRINTED PROGRAM OF
THE GEORGETOWN ORCHESTRA.
Found in an Old Musical Scrapbook--
Members Of the Organization in
the Early Days.

The first printed program of the George
town Orchestra has just been found in an
I'D musical scrapbook. II is most inter-
esting little sheet, well calculated to revive
memories almost dead in the minds of local
musicians and music lovers. 1t is about
three by four inches in size and bears the
date Of February -, 1882. Mr.. r. c. Ber-
nays was conductor and Mr. Herman c.
Rakeman, concert master of the Washing
ton Symphony Orchestra, was the soioist
Herman Rakeman was a mere boy then,
and this was his last appearance before
going abroad for a long period of study.
His father Mr. James Rakeman, was then
playing the first violin.
A glance at the names of the active mem
bers reveals the fact that of all the thirty
one players in the organization only of
the original number is still a member of
the orchestra This is Mr.. f. w. Stone,
fiutist and manager of the orchestra. He
was at that time also playing the flute and
holding the position of assistant librarian.
Although this was the first printed pro-
gram, it was not by any means the first
concert of the Georgetown Orchestra, for 1t
had been giving concerts for five years then.
The organization has made steady progress
since the days of those early concerts. as
a comparison of the first program with
those of the past few seasons will disclose.
The orchestra was supported at that time
and for many years entirely by subscribers.
That was the fashion then, and the list of
passive or subscribing members included
all the names of the social lights of George
town and Washington in those days
Organized in 1877.
The president OF the orchestra was Gov.
Cooke ard among the players were
bis two sons. Mr.. H. ID. Cooke. now of
New York. and Mr. Jay Cooke H. d.
Cooke played first violin and Jay Cooke was
'cellist. The orchestra was first organ
