ASSASSIN
Is Roosevelt Says Judge Alton
B. Parker in a Speech
Last Night

Oswego, n. Y, Oct. 27.-Judge Al
ton B. Parker in the course of
political speech here last night, refer
red at some length to Colonel Roose-
velt's remarks concerning "The al |
legged political circular, alleged to have |
been mailed by somebody in Tam |
many Hall to some alleged person in |
Wall Street" Quoting Mr.. Roose |
welt, Judge Parker said:
This is what our Colonel says:
Now, one of the honest men of Wall
Street has sent me a letter, and in
it he has put one of the circulars
sent out by Tammany Hall to the
Wall Street ticker crowd. The cir
cular says that this campaign more
than any other will affect the bust
ness of the financial interests and
every Wall Street man ought to give
| it serious thought
"Observe in passing, that the Col
onel admits that there is on honest
man in Wall Street. So that will
make two honest men in this State
that this campaign has thus far devel-
oped. Possibly, with accustomed mod
.esty, he told you when here today
| VINO the OCnGr one Was.
"The Colonel is unnecessarily dis
turbed He would make legitimate
appeal for the funds needed for the
legitimate expenditures of cam
paign, the issue of the hour vital
lissue,' as he puts it. No, that won't
do. Nobody will take that seriously.
Everybody knows by this time that
the Democratic party in this fight
stands for tranquility and business
peace, and is opposed to the wild doc
trines of Roosevelt, which would un-
settle values, disturb business and re-
new the panic from which the coun-
try suffered during his administration.
That is the fact, the truth. Is the Col
onel such a stranger to truth that he
doesn't know it when he meets it?
"The Colonel also tells US that the
, big Roosevelt doctrine is thou shalt
not STEAL, and that he is waging a
, decent campaign for decency's sake
vet in the same breath, he renews
his charge that every other citizen
of the State now knows is unfounded
that John A. Dix was part and par
eel of the Wall Paner Trust which
! was righteously dissolved by the
courts.
. "Mr. Dix asked for an apology from
> his detractor. Will he get it? No
The Colonel will continue to stea

will continue to tell you not to steal
