WILL HELP ROBERTSON. Manufacturers Committee Says Anti Lilley Feelings Is Spreading,

New Haven, Oct 1.-The meeting of the protesting republicans who called upon the republican leaders the night before the republican state convention in this city to express their disapprobation of the nomina- tioa of George L.. Lflley of Wateri bury for governor was duplicated yes terday afternoon. It appears that at . previous meeting an executive com fnittee was appointed to consider ways and means as to the best way in which to resist the plans of the re- publican machine. That committed reported at the meeting held yester- day.
 | The following statement was giv- en. to the press: At full meeting Of the executive committee of those republican voters who are opposed to MT Lillef's election most encouraging reports of the widespread and rapid ly increasing force of the movement among the voters in every walk in life throughout the state were reeeiv- ed. The work already started Is bear- ing fruit"
 It is understood from one near to the leaders in the protesting move ment that, instead of being discour- aged, they are more than ever deter mined to see the movement through to the end. It is an interesting bit of political gossip that at the meeting held at republican national headquar- ters in New York Tuesday, while those present were ready to do all in their power to advance the cause of Judge Taft, they insisted upon being excused from strengthening the cause iof Mir Lilley.
 It Is understood that from now out the republicans interested in this movement will hold frequent meet ings in order to keep in touch with the situation and be ready to meet counter-enterprises,

The Blua SkN-

The blue sky which reveals itself as the hemispherical vault of the frma- ment in the absence of clouds is the far depths of the air sending back to the observer some part of the solar illumination which they receive. Ths light thus returned to the eye Is 'blue" simply because the particles of the air are of such exceedingly dininutiye size that they can effectively deal with only the smallest of the luminous vi- brations-that is. with the 'blue" un- dulations. There. are a few faint in terminglings of the other eolored rays In the blue of the sky. but they are In such triflns quantity that the blue swallows them up..

HE GRIDIRoN
REAL START OF
 FOOTBALL SEASON
Nearly All the Big Teams Played Yesterday = Local EIevens
 Praciieing. !

Harvard and Yale played their first football games of the season yes- terday and, like Pennsylvania last Saturday, did not make particu- larly impressive start. Harvard was held to scant five points by Bow doin, but that was as much as the Crimson did against the same oppo- nent last year. Yale made three touchdowns against Wesleyan in the first half and none in the second. When the first string Ellis were play ing in the first half the Blue did as well as could be expected so early in the season, but there was rath- CT far cry between the work of the first string men and the substitutes. Yale's line defense was strong and her tackling hard There was evi- dence of fundamental expertness. and also crudities not altogether pleasing to the coaches. Yale made nine less points against Wesleyan than a year ago.
 Pennsylvania beat Ursinus easily enough. though scoring only once in the second half. The substitutes there, as at New Haven, didn't play any too well comparatively. Of the three big teams that have played games none has been scored on so far. Dartmouth began her season by making. two touchdowns against Vermont, who proved no walkover for the husky Hanoverians. The Bates eleven slipped a score over on Brown, but was no match for the Providence players, the game in its entirety considered. The results follow:
 Harvard 5, Bowdoin 0.
 Yale Is, Wesleyan 0.
 Pennsylvania 30, Ursinus 0.
 Dartmouth II. Vermont 0.
 Brown 34, Bates 1.
 Exeter 30, Brewster academy 0.
 Andover 22, Lowell Textile 0.

 Immediately upon my return to New York will give the entire matt ter my most serious consideration and determine it as quickly as I can. In doing so, however. it should be borne in mind that I can only act after both clubs have been given the time provided by the constitution to present their respective sides. Fol- lowing this, if either the Chicago club or the New York club has any objection to my finding, the constitu- tion will govern as to the manner and method of proceeding.
 Should an appeal be taken fr0r1 my decision by either one of the cluba and the matter taken to the board o( directors, then as president of the board I shall certainly oppose Ml Murphy's contention that he, as al1 interested party and as a member o the board of directors. can have q vote in the final adjudication

DAY HITS PRESIDENT.
Says He Has Descended to Shameful
 Degeneracy.


 Syracuse, Oct IA fresh attack on President Roosevelt was made by Chancellor James Roscoe Day Of Syracuse university in a recent in- terview.
 Never has this country known such a condition politically" he said. Never has it seen it's presi- dency descend to such shameful degeneracy of demagogy. The boast of its high moral ideas and the ele- vation of it's ethics far above trusts, which it considers the sum of all villainy. is made contemptible by revelations of the glaring inconsist~ ency of the chief boaster.
 For Senator Foraker to procure loan for political friends who wish to purchase paper for contest in the open shocks MT Roosevelt. But the president was very practical when he wanted $260,O00 to put where it would do the most good when his election was involved. What was such great sum to be used for?
 Tt is sign of political corruption for Senator Foraker to have corre- sponded with an officer of the Stand ard oil company, but only the discre- tion and privilege of MT Roosevelt to call to Washington a practical man, the head of the greatest railway cor poration in the land, to confer with him before he announced his 'poli- cies' to congress.
 "The Standard Oil remains under MT Roosevelt's venomous hatred for reasons we'll known on the inside, but the greatest trust in America re- ceives his appreciation and consent to increase its holdings.
 Fortunately the fulminations from the white house carry no con viction, so prejudicing, unfair and untrue are they. They are humiliat- ing, not because they are from MT Roosevelt, but because they are from the presidency. The office is de- graded The people are covered with shame.
 The little postmasters are remov- ed for engaging in politics. The most of the business of the presi- dential office is devoted to political campaign. Cabinets are called. in- terviews are furnished, telephone and telegraph wires are kept hot, the clerical force is worked far into the night-if the newspaper special cor respondents are to be believed-and our square deal president is chaf- ing at the bit to go upon the plat form.
 /. "A representative of predatory wealth is in intimate counsel and cooperation with Mir Hitchcock un- til discovery becomes inevitable. Then he is forced to resign, not be- cause of the sin, but the sure dis covery of 1t by political enemies.
 ''The glass houses seem to be cracking with ominous sound.
 "As I have shown, Mir Roosevelt, then a presidential candidate, was hobnobbing with trust magnates and urging them to secure money to elect him. But more than that, he chose for a member of his cabinet a man who held at that time a retain ing fee from great corporation and whose history was connected with the defense of graft criminals. That man is now in Mir Roosevelt's cab inet.
 How is the sin of Foraker a vir- tue in Roosevelt?
 The eyes of the American people are opening vide They are not all deceived. What they need is to ex- ercise themselves In the judicial tenn perament. They are too easily stam- peded by the frenzy of the mad re-

This revenue is morely the fee Arizona collects of other people for the privilege of specu- lating among themselves and just now they have no easy money. One good omen to be drawn from the shrinkage of this kind of business is that the people in the east are saving what money they have. for the purpose of keeping life in the corporations they have. rather than spending it on new speculative projects.
