Elihu Root Joined with Charles L. ~,
the republican candidate for govei 2.
New York state hore tonight In ado q.
ing a political mass meeting in the
1eatc theater. Tho doors Of the place wer,
closed shortly after Z O'Clock, so graat was
the crowd Within and the streets were
thronged with persons seeking admittance.
A second meeting was arranged in Maen-
nerchor hall, and Mr. Hughes also spoke
there.
Secretary Root came here direct from
Washington. and. using the name of Presi-
dent Roosevelt. and speaking. as he said
with his authority he said the people
of the state ought TO elect Mr.. Hughes gov
ernor. Appealing to the workingme,, who
may hear or read my words Secretary
Root exclaimed amid great outburst of
applause pnd cheering: do you believe
in President RooseveltY II you do, then
help him with your votes. l say to you,
with his authority, that he greatly desires
the election OF Mr.. Hughes as the governor
Of the state OF New York. I say to you.
with his authority. that he regards Mr..
Hearst as wholly unfit TO be governor--as
an inslncere. self-seelinz demasogue. who
Is trying TO deceive the worklngmen Of New
York by false statements and false prom
ises, and say TO yoii. with bis authority,
that he considers that Mr.. Hearsts elec-
tion would be an injury and discredit
alike to honest labor and to honest capital
and a serious injury 10 the work in which
he IS engaged in enforcing just and equal
laws against corporate wrongdoing."
Roosevelt on Hearst.
Secretary Root declared that President
Roosevelt and Mr.. Hearst stand as far as
the poles ssunder.
Listen he said. Ito what President
Roosevelt himself has said to Mr. Hearst
and his kind. In President Roosevelts first
message to congress. in speaking of the
assassin OF Mckinley, he spoke of him as
inlamed by reckless utterances of those
who on the stump and n the public press
appeal to the evil spirits of malice, greed
envy and suIlen hatred. Tho wind is sOwed
by the men who preaoH such doctrines and
they cannot escape their share of respon-
sibility for the whirlwind that is reaped.
This applies alike TO the deliberate aemg-
.gogue 70 the sRxploiter of sensationallsm
and tsthe crude and FOOLISH visionary,
who for whatever reason apologies for
crime Or exciles atmless diseontent
'T say by tho presidents authority that
IN penning these words with the horror OF
President McIinley's murder fresh before
him he had Mr.. Hearst specifically in his
mind. And I say hy his authority" con-
cludod the secretary Of state 'that what he
thought Of Mr. Hearst then he thinks OF
Mr.. Hearst now
The demonstration Of applause and cheer
ing which followed continued for some time
Mr.. Root was warmly welcomed here to-
night and when some one in the galleries
called out: who'll be the next president .:
there was a response Of Root"
Twice during the delivery Of the speech
the secretary was Interrupted by persons IL
the audience and the great crowd I'm the
theater was in an uproar. One of these In
terrurtiops came when Secretqrv Root do
ciared Hearst had been elected to congress
to serve the American people, but failed t.
do 80.
That's lie.' shouted a man In the bal
cony. AZ once there was a roar Of put hin
OUT but Mr. Root held up his hand 70
silence and said "Let him remain"
Secretary Roots speech.
He then read n statement which he de
clared summartzed Mr.. Hearst's record ii
the natioHal house OF representatives. TIL
second interruption came when secretar!
Root was referring 70 the assassination o
President Mckinley
Mckinley is dead, why do YOU bring hin
into this?'' cried a man. Again there wa
tunault and several policemen started t
eject the man. Secretary Root asked tina
ne be left alone. whereupon the man volun
tarly left the place.
Mr.. Hughes spoke 3ust prior 10 Mr.. Roc
and Ia his remarks paid e personal compli
ment TO the secretary, saying; 'IIe come
10 us tonight hero Of the victories q
peace"
NT Hughes repeated IN his address IN
pledges he has heretofore made as to IN
policy OF his administration II elected GOV
ernorl
Mr.. Root said IN part:
