IT WAS BILL SMITHS DAY.

Republicans Of the Twenty-thIrd Whom
u Up for H I'm.
The Sterling Republican Club Of tn
Twenty-third Assembly district gathered
yesterday at College Point to shout, eat
and shout some more in a great outburst of
enthusiasm for William H. Smith, can
didate for leader Of the Twenty-third.
Six hundred and eighty-seven Republi-
cans and two German bands boarded the
steamer Glen at the foot OF West 10th street
at 0 O'Clock in the morning. When the
boat got back late at night it had an extra
load, distributed unevenly among the es7
original starters and 200 more who got 10

The browning feature of the day was a
baseball game. Attomey-G General Julius M.
Mayer selected nine skilful men 10 uphold
the side OF / lie bachelors, while Congressman
William s. Bennett caPtained the cohorts of
the home. IL was a close game for three
innings, and then there appeared on the
grounds 100 girls on a button factory outing.
The married men went all to pieces after
this. The bachelors won by a score Of

The sensation OF the afternoon came in
the fat mems quarter mile race, when w. J.
blackburn, weight 2es pounds, pulled ahead
OF his two opponents and made a new cor

4 minutes AZ seconds.
The clambake dinner began at 8 O'Clock.
with more than 200 at the tables. Between
the oysters and the fish William II. Smith
made a short speech, Of which possibly two

Whatever influence the Independent
Labor party may have in the campaign
this year will depend q good deal on the
attitude Of Mr.. Hearst and the Independence
League. The members OF the executive
committee Of the Central Federated Union,
who framed the platform OF the new party,
say that at least 10 per cent. Of Mr.. Hearst's
vote for Mayor came from the working
people, but that unless Mr.. Hearst speaks
out Don and says what he is going TO
subscribe to the labor men will not sup
port him this year. At the same time they
talk as II Mr.. Hearst could have the nomi-
nation Of the labor party for Governor
II he would undertake to subscribe to its
platform. .
They do not blame Mr.. Hearst 20 much
as bis managers. They are much wrought
up by an appeal TO union labor issued under
the name Of Max Ihmsen inviting them
to Join the league II they believe in its
principles and advising them to join it as
the party for wOrkingmen.
III this appeal is genuine and has really
e sent out by Mr.. Hearst's Managers
said Henry DeVeaux Of the executive
committee, then IL is time for Mr.. Hearst
to declare himself. This makes 1t appear
as IL the league was an opposition party
to the Independent Labor party
Asked il the w~orkingmen who supported
Mr.. Hearst last year would not be likely
to support him again, he said:
@Not until he gets rid OF his present man
ayers. II he continues his present man
ayers sS per cent. Of the working men.
union and non-union, will vote against him.
TO he - -Nt-- - - NkA auUD.AFf ~ tina
~workingmen he will have to say what ms
exact sentiments are. The Independence
League is not an independent labor party
and does nOt appeal to the w~orkinRmen.
II Mr.. Hearst is the nominee OF the league
he will be badly left"
Ernest Bohm, secretary Of the I~ndepend-
ent Labor party, was inclined to be more
hopeful about Mr.. Hearst. He was asked
II the Independent Labor party could nomi-
nate on indorse Mr.. Hearst.
Strictly speaking, no." he said. "He
would have to subscribe to the principles
OF our party
sol"
THAT remains to be SEEM he said. He
has not spoken much for himself yet"
James H. Hatch, chairman OF the execu-
tive committee, said yesterday that he did
not want it to be understood that the party
would not indorse Mr.. Hearst. He did not
want to commit himself to any positive
statement, but he said it was very possible
that the convention might indorse Mr..
Hearst because he was an independent
candidate and friendly to labor.
Some Of the Socialists in the Central Fed
Grated Union say they will stand by the
new party. Others declare that the Social
ist party is the only party. At the last city
election the Hearst movement split the
Socialist vote on account Of the munioi-
pal ownership plank in the Hearst platform.
The platform Of the new party provides
that a man cannot belong TO 1t and owe
allegiance 20 any other party.

He Denies That Any Branch OF Demo-
cratic Headquarters Has Been Closed.
WASHINGTON, Sept. s.-The Hon. James
M. Griggs OF Georgia, chairman of the
Democratic Congress committee, ia out
in a prepared statement to-day in which
he says that various things tend to the
conclusion that the Republicans are scared
half to death. Mr.. Griggs declares that the
Democratic literary bureau hasn't shut
down, but has merely decreased its force
He also refuses to allow President Roose-
welt to be the issue Of the Congress cam
paign. Mr.. Griggs wrote on the type
writer as follows:
All this talk about the closing OF any
branch OF the Democratic national head
quarters Is utterly without foundation.
The press bureau in this city, under Robert
Miller, which has been conducted by the
national committee for several years, is
still at work getting out its regular sup
ply Of matter for the Democratic press
throughout the country. The force was
decreased q day or two ago simply because
the additional work OF compiling data for
the campaign book under the supervision
OF this committee. which had been put
upon that bureau, was completed, and
there was therefore no longer any necessity
for the services Of these people. That is
all there " to the alleged incident.
"Ihe efforts OF the Republicans to make
the President the sole issue Of this cam
paign is significant and will prove futile.
1T would appear from the frantic efforts
Of certain distinguished Republican speak
eIs to make the President the issue that
they are ashamed Of the record OF the Re-
publican House Of Representatives. I do
not know how this is myself, and therefore
do not charge that they are ashamed OF IL:
but, IL they are not, why should they SO
earnestly pursue the policy OF ignoring the
record Of that body and attempting to hide
behind the President?
while in New York recently, at the re-
ception OF Mr.. Bryan. l met Democrats
from all over the country, and have never
hopeful.
Mr.. Bryan will take part in the campaign
and will speak where ne can do the most
good for the party"

The negro voters Of the First Assembly

an organization among themselves and
issued an address to the other colored
voters Of the county protesting against

all OF the colored voters that were in the
old Tenth district into Col. Dady's district,

for recognition. Mr.. Woodruff was OF the

tell the Journal about it. We have
a large list of farms that came to
us BY LETTER. We also have a
large number of buyers that want
to buy land this winter. Then we
have several on our list who desire
to trade ii small farm for a larger

sell, we find the buyer, then you do
the business yourself.
