PARSONS BOOM LAUNCHED
Madison Square Club Cheers 1t, but
Con eressman Does Not.

A Herbert Parsons boom for Governor was
launched by William Fl. Wadhams. president OIL
the Madison Square Republican Club at Iai,-
Sherman ratification meeting held last night at
the clubhouse No. 24O West 18th street the ciuo
greeted the idea with enthusiasm MT PARSONS
hardly seemed enthusiastic.
In introducing Mr.. Parsons. who was to make
the principal speech Judge Wadhams took MS
flight into prophecy Said he
have the honor to introduce 10 you who
has come up from the ranks among who was a
resident IN our district until the last reapportlo
ment member of the Board of Aldermen ois-
trict leader. twice member of Congress and our
county chairman, and-et lie let you INTO niue
whom he is one, as prominent and probable can
didate for Governor this fall
whereat the members renewed the applause with
which they had greeted Mr.. Parsons when he en-
tered the room.
Il am very glad to be let into that secret. said
Mr.. Parsons after thanking Judge Wadhams and
the club members but 1 shall not be disappointed
If 1t never gets any further toward realization.
Then he told of his experiences at the Chicago
convention and his qualification at the excellent
work accomplished by his fellow Republicans there.
He said that In everything done the convention
showed that the party 1t represented was awake
to the needs of the country. In the tarfn ana IN
junction planks care had been taken to assure
the people. and especially the business men. mat
it would indulge in experiments
THE Democratic party has no record on Whlch
to go before the people, said he "All 1t can do
is to make experiments and offer promises we
say, BY our deeds ye shall know us, and prove
party is fit to govern by our platform ana our
candidates Mr.. Sherman, man who long mas
represented the state in Congress, is man VINO
carries great influence among men; they realize
his ability and integrity. He has been accused OF
connection with politics but 1 don't think that IL
hurt him. as my experience has been that ne TOOK
a broad comprehensive, highminded view
And surely no ever was nominated Tor
President who well qualified to take up the
duties of the office as Mr.. Taft He is in every
sense the best candidate-a many sided man. In
this state conditions which made 1t advlsa-
Bile for us to put forward favorite son nominee
but think even Governor Hughes knew, as since
he has very fttngly said, that Mr. Tart was
man of the finest qualifications for the place
This campaign offers the choice between a
man tried and tested in the school furnished by
experience man proved of sterling worth, and
a man with a panacea for every ill, a man OF in
teresting personality, but just little bit OF
ouack man with Of his notions abandoned
and others untried, a hardly with notion
fitted to orderly government How can there De
any doubt about the outcome when that Is the
choice offered to by the two parties!
