SENTIMENT
STRONG UPSTATE
Chairman Dix Finds Army Of
Dissatisfied Republicans.

New York, Sept 21.-John A. Dix. Of
turned from his five weeks tour of the
State to-day. As 10 how many pGli-
ticians were on this side or that. he
had nothing to say; but he declared
that he had met thousands OF men
throughout the State. Republicans as well
as Democrats, who were anxious 10 give
the Republican party a sound beating.
When he was asked whether the gov
ernorship race had narrowed down TO
any particular candidate. Mr.. Dix said
IL was still any mans nomination.
There is a tremendous sentiment for
Mayor Gaynor up the State" he added
"Often country folk drove twenty and
thirty miles 10 the meeting 90 learn
something about Mr.. Gaynor. I have
never met the mayor, and could only
give them general information.
'If Mr.. Gaynor consents to run he
VIII undoubtedly be nominated from one
of the upstate counties. but New York
City seems pleased with its mayor and
prefers 10 keep him where he IS"
This remark of Mr.. Dix was the first
line for the public on the attitude Of
Charles F. Murphy toward GaynOr. II
was interpreted as meaning that Murphy
had decided not to push Gaynor's candi-
dacy in behalf of Tammany.
The Tammany leader has called on
Gaynor at 81. James twice, once as re-
Gently as lass Friday. and last night
DIX dined with Murphy and Norman z.
Mack. chairman Of the Democratic Ma
tional Commlttee. The chairman may
have learned something. about Murphy S
feelings toward the Gaynor candidacy
It is known that Murphy has been re-
ceiving hundreds Of letters from up
State. urging him TO nominate Gaynor,
but it IS also believed that much Of the
upstate enthusiasm for Gaynor has been
worked up by. paid agents Of interests
that want him removed from the mayor
atty.

Cincinnati, Sept. 21.-The pork
barrel of Federal politics got a bad
blow here this afternoon from Pres
ident Taft, and if this ancient and
disreputable institution survives, it
will be only through a revivifying
process at the close of Mr.. Taft's
stay in the White House.
The President served notice that
so long as he is at the head of the
Federal government no more river
and harbor bills containing "pork"
will be passed. He added also that
the piecemeal practice of making
river and harbor improvements
must cease, and that in the future
each project must be undertaken
purely on its merits, and when un-
dertaken rushed to completion.
DEALS WITH PRESENT.
But the Taft attack upon the pork bar
rel does not deal entirely with future
events He announced that he intends
to ask Congress for more power over
river and harbor Improvements, in the
form OF authority TO organize board Of
engineers to go over partially completed
enterprises that were begun before the
present plan OF approval by two boards
was adopted. or which by change In
conditions needed requirements in order
to demonstrate whether they should not
be abandoned altogether This will in
deed be sad news 10 some of the old
war horses in Congress. who have been
getting contributions for their districts
each year under this system, and who
apparently were calmly anticipating
many years of fattening at the barrel.

1t was announced yesterday that
the Washington Old Home Week,
to have been held this fall, had as
sumed such enormous proportions
as to force postponement until
spring and to make it a national in
stead of a local Homecoming.
Instead of 10000 visitors, there
are to be 100000. Instead of light
programme of entertainments and
parades, President Taft has offered
the White House for a big demon
stration, in which Cabinet officers,
Senators, Representatives, and
members of the Supreme Court will
participate. Every State will be
represented, and this being the Cap
ital of the nation it is to be a big
reunion of Uncle Sans family.
This is TO be the greatest national
demonstration in the history of the
country, it is claimed, not excepting
any Presidential Inauguration OF
the past.
PLANS TWO WEEKS OFF.
I'VE have been receiving letters from
every part OF the country urging us to
extend our plans" said Isaac Cans
chairman OF the Washington publicity
committee, yesterday. land the commit
tee Will meet about two weeks from now
TO decide what shall be done. In view
OF these demands and the expansion OF
! ideas generally as 90 what should be the
character or a home week celebration. We
| found Il impossible 10 carry out our orig
| inal plan FOR a reunion this autumn. II
was absolutely necessary TO put every
thing over until we could come 10 some
/ agreement that would be satisfactory Il
all who look upon this great city as the
national homestead. There IS great
/ deal Of enthusiasm over the national idea
OF II, and we are confident II VIII be a
| great success"
| At the meeting two weeks hence of the
publicity committee a programme will b,
| pointed to begin work at once.
Welcome for Each State.
| a reception committee for each state
composed of natives of Washington. will
be suggested as a good feature. and this re
ception committee will have a state hom,
for its delegation Under this arrange
ment there would be a home for Texas
la home for California. a home for Maine
and one for each state, such as big ex
positions have IN the form of state build
| ings. where visitors from these respectiv,
States would find shelter and amuse
ment
During the week organized trip
throughout all OF the government build
| ing and other places Of interest would b.
given. AS a climax to the whole biz
celebration would be the scene of gather
| ing Of all States, with the President al
a speaker and the governors of each Stat
as well. There probably would be specia
trains from each State. bringing TO Wash
/ ington the respective delegations. ant
every train would be accompanied by TIL
best band that state affords. There ar
forty-six States in the Union. and from
this, some idea of the magnitude OF tn
enterprise may be gained.
