NEW YORK, October l3..Nilliam r
| Hearst formally accepted the invitation
of his followers TO run for mayor al
| Carnegie Hall last night and fired off a
sizzling speech against Tammany. He
| looked like a man who was tickled al
getting back in the game.
| The mass meeting arranged was to
be a general notification Of Hearst and
the fusian candidates, but 1t came down
to a direct whooping-it-up for Hearst and
| an all-round roasting OF Justice Gaynor
Now and then somebody mentioned Ban
nard. the Republican nominee.
William NJ. Twins arraigned Justice Cay
nor as the friend of the race-track In
! terests. He declared that Justice GaynoI
met Pat McCarren, Eugene Wood, Kat
zenjammer Block and others the day the
anti-gambling law was put through the
legislature, and told Senator McCarren
that the law was unconstitutional.
Hearst Raps Tammany.
Hearst said:
II accept your nomination in the salts
flying confidence that with the plan de-
cided upon we can positively defeat one
of the most disgraceful Tammany tickets
ever nominated in this city.
II can see no danger to this city in the
election of Mr.. Barnard, or CT myself, or
even of Judge Gaynor. But I can dis
tinctly see a serious danger to our citl-
Zens and humiliation to our city In the
election Of the individuals appointed by
Mr.. Murphy and Mr. McCarren to repre-
sent the democracy In this campaign.
IT believe that the ticket we have
named tonight represents at once the
soundest and most advanced thought ii
both tie republican party and the dem
ocratic party. 1t is better republican
ticket than Mr.. Woodruff could have
named with Tammany's assistance anc
it is a better democratic ticket than Tam
many and McCarren have named with
Mr. Woodruff's assistance.
Il firmly believe that the republican
party will fall from it's high estate an6
be swept from its power by an aroused
and enraged people If ever 1t consent tt
ratify the criminal compact of Woodruff
Murphy.

something, and what he smells is the

Gaypor Says He's Embossed.
In an address in Brooklyn last night
Justice Gaynor said:
Judge me by my past.
III a man has followed the dictates OF
a machine all his life he is likely to fol-
low it when he gets into Office. But II
a man always has been known as an op-
ponent OF corrupt government. you can
pretty nearly rely that when he gets ia

going to take his orders from any un-
worthy leaders.
