nor meetings in various parts of New
York with a plethora CT cart-tail ora
tory on almost every important street
corner in the more congested residence
districts
Justice Gaynor toured the East Side
by automobile, repeating his previous
attacks on Hearst and Barnard, and
emphasizing particularly his plea for
more personal liberty and for a lib.
eral construction of police laws. The
peoples slogan in this campaign he
said, ought to be, Let us alone.
There has been too much czarship ir
New York city, too much government
by the club and night stick. The peo-
pie should rule"
Barnard Is Busy.
Barnard was heard in Staten Island.

hearers. Il was never a candidate for
office and have no political ambition

work faithfully at my new job and try
to leave a good name when the four

votes away from Gaynor. Some OF

is that Hearst won't get enough. I'm
anxious for him to get votes, for I

Hearst would probably come in third il
the three cornered race. He intlmat

From what Chairman Parsons said anf
from the general attitude around tho
republican and fusion headquarters, Il
would seem that the republican figures
