made public yesterday by Marcus Braun
president of the Hungarian Republica'
Club. who had invited the President 10 at
tend the dinner which the club viii CIV

night at the Cafe Boulevard.
The President wrote that though il va
! impossible for him to attend the dinner i'
remembered that he was under the oDiisa
ton to accept the hospitality of the clut
at some time, and promised to do so a. the
earliest favorable opportunity. Comment
ing upon the state election the President

Questions for Roosevelt Opponents.
Six pertinent questions addressed to those
who oppose Stimson because they are op-
posed to Roosevelt were sent out yesterday
from the headquarters of the Stinson Club
of New York
Henry E. Howland, Victor Morawetz,
Bayard Dominck Roberts Walker. Moses
Taylor Robert d Wrenn, John Harsen
Rhoades and Alexander NJ. White signed
the pamphlet containing the questions,
which were pref1xed with the following
statement:
We address those who from hostility
TO Roosevelt show an inclination to vote
against Stimson. We are all cordially in
favor of the election of Stimson, irrespec-
tive Of cur attitude on Roosevelt or Roose-
velt's policies, and we address you on the
single question involved in the title of this
pamphlet, To those who oppose Stimson
because they are opposed to Roosevelt -
Making the same point which was
brought out by Senator Root in his speech
last Friday night. that Stimson's defeat by
the allied interests of Tammany and Wall
Street would not weaken, but rather
strengthen. Roosevelt in the minds Of the
whole American people. the first question
follows:
Can you accomplish a national result
by voting against Stirnson in a local cleo
tion?'
Pointing out then that President Taft
strongly favors the Stimson ticket and
that the success of the Republican state
ticket is most important if not essential,
TO President Taft's denomination. the sec
ond question is:
''Will it help President Taft in the con-
vention if the New York delegates come
from a Democratic state7''
Leading up TO the third question the
pamphlet gives the warning that a vote
against Stimson is a vote for Murphy
Grady, COnners and other satellites of the
Murphy type. The attempt Of the Demo-
cratic League to purify the patry failed.
The Republican regeneration. starting with
the throwing off of Aids , under way
and the leaders of the Republican party,
such as President Taft and former Cover
nor Hughes, are back of the regeneration.
Under these circumstances. is il an act
OF wisdom TO support the party which has
failed in its efforts at reform, and TO re-
buke the one which is succeeding Would
that indeed. be an act of political mo-
rality?"
Stimson of the Hughes Type.
The fourth question. with its brief prefix.
is as follows:
"stimson is a man Of the same type as
Governor Hughes. has Governor Hughes's
approval and will continue his fight for
honest and efficient government"
do you realize that in voting against
Stimson you are rebuking Hughes?"
rs it common sense to object 10 a splen-
did candidate merely because Roosevelt
supports him." is the fifth question.
The sixth takes up the question OF Tam
many Hall, and its blight upon public men
in New York State. An individuals life is
short, the pamphlet points out but the life
of Incorporated Tammany is almost CO.
equal with that Of this state, and its poIlu-
ton of everything involved in citizenship
has lasted almost as long, and is likely TO
go on for years.
Roosevelt as an evil, are against St1mson
and his fellow Republicans on that account,
In all candor is not your attitude an ex-
preston of personal dislike or hatred? Does
Il represent either public spirit political
common sense for you TO abandon the cause
and candidates you approve. and put in
power q party completely dominated by
Tammany. in order to give expression 10
that personal dislike?''
John W Hutchinson, jr.. chairman of the
speakers bureau. said he had received
word from Attorney General O'Malley that
the Roosevelt meeting in Buffalo last night
surpassed anything in the way of cam
paign meetings that had been seen in the
western end of the state in years.
