ing dispute over the Brownsville incident
That was all forgotten. however when the
Governor went in, and they all decided that
Brownsville had nothing to do with New York
State and that Governor Hughes was the man
they wanted Governor.
At his last meeting, in the Lenox Assembly
Rooms. the Governor got enc Of the most en-
thusfastic receptions of the evening. He was
cheered for over seven minutes. and a squad Of
policemen had difficulty in getting him to the

climbed over tables and hurded chairs to get
even near enough the Governor TO touch him.
The meeting. was in the district of Samuel s

got to Camp Taft ahead Of schedule time and
when it was learned that another speaker was
on the platform the Governor had his machine
make the circuit of several blocks before he
went in, he did not wish to interfere with
the orator. As it was, Register Prendergast
