SYRACUSE. Oct. 26-The campaign grew
llvelter today as Theodore Roosevelt
travelled about central New York state.
Hundreds stood in the rain to hear his
outdoor speeches and every building in
which he spoke was damned. The colonel
dwelt particularly on Rooseveltism as an
issue. He told the people that some bust
ness men Of the state were afraid OF Il. He
said that any fear OF him OF of Henry l..
Stimson. republican candidate for gov

had been raised by Wall street.

LittletOn Makes Attack.
NEW YORK, Oct. pa new turn was
given to the attack on Colonel Roosevelt
and his new nationaHsm" by Martin w
LAttleton, democratic candidate for con-
gress in the oyster Bay district, in an
address tonight at Carnegie hall.
The new nauonalism, he said has its
source in the abiding disrespect Mr. Roose-
welt has constantly shown against
'our form Of republic" which has caused
him to show dissatisfaction with the public
men of this country as well as its insti-
buttons.
During his speech Mr. IAttleton said:
The vast region of Mr.. RooseveitB po-
litical economy he has peopled with a
| law-made race OF men and women who
| grope their way about in the very fog
! of diffuse and unrelated power. In the
| wide range of his active mind he has
| never encountered structure Of author
| ity which he would not changei a form
OF government which he would not alter;
| q society which he would not transform.
| In the long reach OF his ample and en-
riched years he has never met with a
philosopher whom ne would not advise;
| a teacher whom ne would not instructi q
soldier whom he would not command; a
| king whose sceptcr he would not WELD
! a book which he would not rewrite; a re-
igion which he would not reorganize; g
| civilization which her would not recon
| struot.
