Attacked by Gov. Durbin.

In Indiana, former Gov. Durbin. one
of the recognized leaders Of the party
in the Hoosier state. scored Roosevelt
in public speech, being especially
severe in bis criticism Of the former
President because of the latter's at
tacks on the courts.
Meantime. the quoted value of Col
Roosevelt's candidate for governor of
New York as betting proposition
took another drop, five to two being
chalked up against him. In Wall
street an offer to bet $1,000 against
$4,000 that Dix would have a plurality
Of not less than 100000 went untaken.
Considerable Stimson money, reported
to have come from outside the state,
appeared on the street and about $780,
600 was placed at odds OF five to two.
The disposition Of bettors to risk
their money on Stimson was not
strengthened by an interview with
former Gov. Frank 9. Black, published
In morning paper. 1t had been re-
ported that Black would desert the re-
publican party and cast his vote for
Dix. This he would neither confirm
nor deny, but the refusal Of SO promi-
nent a republican to deny d report Of
this kind was generally accepted as
pretty conclusive evidence OF its truth.

Mr.. Warner has recently completed his
campaign in Allegany county, and he ex-
presses confidence that he will carry that
county by a comfortable majority. He
is sure Of the outcome Of the political
struggle in the sixth district, and has no
hesitancy In branding as false the state
ments in the opposition press that there
is much dissatisfaction In the republican
ranks.
Views Of Other Speakers.

of the results achieved by the republican
party, both in Maryland and In the ma

Apparently oblivious to sharp attacks

citizen Of the world he continued his at
tacks on Dix and Tammany. and told the
variegated nationalities of the East Side
that 1t was their fight he was fighting,
and that the only element Of power he
had was derived from the belief of a
number Of my fellow citizens that I stand

East Siders shouted their approval in al
most every tongue spoken by man.
In Connecticut the republican state
committee refused to put the stamp Of its
approval on Roosevelts controversy
with Judge Simeon E. Baldwin, the demo-
cratic nominee for governor Of that state,
and Judge Baldwin came out in another
open letter to Roosevelt, intended to
make clear that the former President had
not answered the charge Of misrepre-

retraction -.

Calls Dix an Appendix.

William r. Hearst spent the evening
campaigning in Brooklyn. and joined
Roosevelt in roasting Dix. Here is one
of Mr.. Hearst's keenest thrusts: MI. DIX

dependent Dix. He is Tammany ap-
pendix. He might accurately and ana
Ironically be described as Mr.. Murphy

surgical operation for political aPpendicl-
tbs to separate him from MI. murphy,
and you cannot elect Mr.. Dix to ONCE
without electing Mr.. Murphy to power:
Michael Kenealy. chairman OF the Con-
necticut republican central commlttee,
was responsible for the statement tnat
that committee did not indorse.. Ro0se-
yelt's attack on Judge Baldwin, and also
that the committee did not accept the
former Presidents preachment OF a new
nationaaism."
This new nationalism is not doctrine
Of the republican party said Mr.. Ken
ealy. while men of the states rights
school like Judge Baldwin may well fear
the supremacy Of Col. Roosevelt. they
know as well as they know their own
existence that the Constitution OF The
United States is safe in the hands OF Will
liam II. Taft.
Let it be remembered by the repub-
licans in the state of Connecticut that
Mr.. Roosevelt is the ex-Presfdent OF the
United States: that Connecticut is es-
sentially the state of William II. Taft.
Just now the candidate of our friends
on the other side Judge Baldwin, is en-
gagged I'm a dispute with the ex-President.

Bryan Not q Free Lance.

Out in Nebraska William J: Bryan las
night claimed share of the spotlight
His offer to participate in the Nebrasks
campaign having been ignored by the
state committee, Mr.. Bryan hired a hal
in Lincoln and held a meeting without
state committee auspices.
The feature of Mr.. Bryans speech was
that he proclaimed his political indie
pendence, SO far as the head of the dem
ocratic state ticket is concerned, and
justified his bolt from James c. Dahl
man, candidate for governor. He dis
claimed any intention of becoming a po-
litical free lance in national affairs
Mr.. Bryan declared himself regular
on all else save the Nebraska governor
ship, and gave unstinted Endorsement to
the remainder of the state ticket. He
insisted that It was no test Of party reg
ularity to refuse to vote for Mayor
Dahlman, because, he said, Dahlman was
not nominated by the democrats. but by
a combination Of the votes Of all parties
dominated by the liquor interests.
For himself. he would do what he could
to put an end to the spree on which the
democratic party in Nebraska had EN-.
barked; he was not willing that the party
should die of delirium tremens.
